@@Astelch the only problem is, EVERY idiotic noob started playing the game yesterday will shoot u 10 times into that stupid cupola until u are DEAD and your KW-1 is nothing more than a smoking wreck, but hey, good thing the tank is almost 2 tons heavier than standard kv-1 - just solely alone cuz of this stupid cupola, and so its mobility is better compared to good old churchill I and will give u a very damn hard time reaching even 25km/h on flat, hard ground In worst case scenario in close combat, your enemy will be able to shoot u into that cupola and kill u, while u cant shoot back on him, so yeah, have fun with that tank diying a lot, 100mm of armor for that cupola simply isnt enough to bounce the majority of rounds enemy tanks are going to pump into it
I got this in a Seasonal Christmas Holiday box and looking forward to playing it, I've been having fun with the German line so far and now I've finally got a premium crew trainer. Like the other tanks from this line, it should take a bit of time to figure out but once I do, going to be a lot of fun. Thanks for covering some of the lower end lower tier tanks for newer players to figure out where and what to focus on.
This tank is OP and I love it. By the way cupola has 100mm so it is not really a weakspot. The gun has lower alpha, but it is much more accurate and you have 10 degrees of gun depression.
Hi Skill I’m Baboon in Na clan, I don’t know if other ppl say that, but answer to you about gun depression this tank under German modifications have -10 degrees and not the typical Russian gun depression which make a better tank in some conditions compare to all Kv1 types
I wouldn't be bothered about farming lower teirs . I only have 600 casual games and constantly get taken out by players with 80k plus games in tier 4 games. Great review and pointers on where to aim to take them out.
Unless you receive this tank as a reward or get it free somehow, just save your money and get the American T1 Heavy! You get a better gun, more armor, a little more speed and you don't have that huge cupola on top! And you don't have to spam gold to pen everything on the map, AP works fine for all tier 5 tanks and most tier 6 as well!
Gj this year wargaming by making the low tier box tanks not just to fill the boxes with something, each of the low tiers have a unique play style which makes them all equally as good to play without being overpowered. Again, gj wargaming
This is a captured Soviet KV-1 tank captured by the Germans. Instead of the Soviet gun, the Germans installed their Pak-40 gun. The rest of the tank remained unchanged.
U give it a cupola for the commander which should give him better awareness…instead it gets less view range then The original KV-1?? Not logic of course….
I have 80% win rate after 25 games. I dunno, the armor seems to work better than KV1. I notice that even when I play against them and my gold rounds are not as reliable. I don't use gold rounds much as the pen is pretty good unless I am facing tier 6 armored heavies or TD's.
This tank is actually captured kv1 from Russia and Germans changed a lot first cupola ( Russian poor visibility) then turret and Germans main weapon the gun KwK40 L48 cannon, plus they added extra plates on the body ( spaced armor) and call it kv 1 c 756 (r) also exists kv 1 a, kv 1 b 756 (r) , very good for its time
i played some battles now myself and felt good in it. if you look into the moe and ace-expectations... oops this looks like op. what is has is a bit of spaced armor, but as heat is not that widely used in lower tiers thats not much of a favor. what it is has too is the gun the russian KV-1 is missing. 115 pen for 110 damage with accuracy and high dpm is what makes this tank work. the KV-1 either has higher damage with less accuracy and way longer reload on 85mm gun , or lower damagewith compareable reload and pen on 57mm.. don't compare the 122mm or 76mm guns on KV-1, it is useless..
Skill bullying the low tiers, and he is enjoying, wow.... that's crazy you know, that's really crazy. And he also wants to know "how we suppose to get more", really crazy
Not to mention that we get the lovely warning, "Due to heavy server load, Central server is available but not recommended." Last time I saw it was 2 days ago, and we had barely 13k playing. They need to feed the server hamster.
WG devs are as creative as me when I take dump on toilet - we both want to just do this as possible without much thought put into that. Fast , uncreative and shitty.
Don't forget that WG is focused on making money, if they don't fix it that means this state of the game makes the most money, even though players might not be that happy, overall income is higher, so please stop with this
@@pumpyoursoundcom6385 i won't stop sorry If more people speak up, and suddenly we are a lot and decide to stop playing and stop spending money, then may something change. By your way, we would still be in feudalism
Dude, if they lower rng, gold goes up. Think about it, new rocket tank costs to pen, play 8 and end up 9\10 it costs gold. Logic works more than fairplay in life.
@@ThePsychodad69 there's too much rng amd everybody knows it. I actually don't play almost anything, but im really thinking on stopping because is stupid. Even if not rng, they should at least fix MM.
Dude, appreciate your content but this video is BS. You want the solution to beat the KW I? Load gold like everyone else, shoot anywhere -> win. You just uploaded where nobody shot gold.
That's only because you can mount historically inaccurate guns in the techtree KV (since it should only have the 76mm). Stock, the German tank is better. Maybe it should get an even bigger boost to viewrange. 20m is kinda small, considering the size of the new cupola.
you are not mistaken, the KW1 has additional 30mm spaced armor on the upper plate and around the turret ring
looks like gun depression is better too
yeah -10 depression..can actually almost ridge with it lols dooont think any other kvs have -10 do theY? ..too lazy to check.
basically this is a new tank that can bully new players bcuz of the armor but vs seal clubbers that spam gold to pad their stats this tank is nothing.
@@homelessEh No regular KV-1 has 6%.

The third game looked like a crazy baboon jumping into a crowd of people and spanking every one left, right and center with his wooden banana.
That third game must be one of the best carry’s I’ve seen this year. Was in awe of your skill and situational awareness.
last Game was like Pz KW 1- "John Wick"-style! GG

I like the PzKpfw KW1 more than the new auto loader KV1SA. It just feel a bit better over all. I like the 75mm on the PzKpfw KW1. The RoF works great.
And armor just works quite reliably, plus 10 degree of gun depression are wonderful.

How do you get this tank? I dont see it in the game or in the store.
Not even on the WOT wiki...
That's a lot of players in the EU server. It's been around 20k in the US and that is high compared to normal play.

Yeah, the low tier tanks are great, the upper tiers a disaster for the game, especially the BZ.

Played this tank after your video. First match 3.5k damage 5 kills. What a beast.
where is this guy from? New Jersey?
Ah yes, the War Thunder tank I love with all my heart
Quickly becoming my favorite tank to play

Skillz had to have a towel to wipe the splattered Seal Blood off his face after that 3rd battle
holy banana's, last game was great. Maybe lag saved you there ;)
192,000 players on! Try the Australian server 195 players!
KV-1 double barrel 57mm would have been much easier to love.
Im envious you get that kind of ping. I play with minimum 200 ping
Most amazing thing about it are 10 degrees of gun depression.
Lol ive never seen the NA server above 22,000. Usually i play late at night and there is only 5 or 6 thousand on.
I enjoy this tank. I'm having fun with all the low tier box tanks.
Skill bullying the low tiers, and he is enjoying, wow.... that's crazy you know, that's really crazy. And he also wants to know "how we suppose to get more", really crazy
Love the KV-1, most kills I ever got (13) was using this the Russian KV-1.
@Amando Marques no, the other gun
The lag is a feature 🤣
super good tank thats was ...i was enjoying playing it hehe
I play on Na and I've been having really bad lag and ping lately. Like last 2 months

@@itatane exactly
if so much player are online and you get so many bounces maybe its a wave of new players in low tier
192,000 players.. wtf. Please combine NA with the EU servers already!!!
RNG without random, premium ammo as a credit drain and a matchmaker for op premium tanks.
Im ready to get big ass cupola for extra viewrange and add 3 degrees gun depression
these things are real good in the War Blunder
chee-hwa-hwa .... lol @skeeel
Wow 192k players on EU2?!? . Damn. On NA 12k players is a good day. I see as low as 4k late at night. And it seems 90% of them are good players lol.
this tank is literally a german super conqueror at tier V

Отличная игра.
Skill gets more average DMG in tier 5 than me on Tier 9, jeesus christ.
It's just bad compared to the others. The tumor killed me more often than any other armor plate on this tank.
Love ya Skill, but just saying, tier 5 tank, 6 skill crew.....
Instead of filling the tank with rather useless trollish or op tanks, they should really fix MM and lower RNG

why WOT server soo twitchy nowadays
shooting gold at will........what a champ!
They cant pen that tank because is new and the game is rigged with fake stats and rng...nothing new
Of course a German tank gets another weak spot. Tanks are not allowed to be better than there Russian counterpart

Russian KV1 is better. The cupola totally ruins it, and the alpha is bad.
You cannot run derp, but you get 20m of viewrange. Tradeoffs, tradeoffs...
Same tank just russian instead of german..... makes it have russian bias to the rng
What’s with the act? Speak normally.
what is this tank 1st time i see that
Does anyone know where I can get this tank? or where do I buy it?
