    The American M6A2E1 is one of the worst looking tanks I have seen. That being said, it's also quite good (when it doesn't get constant uptiers). Thanks Gaijin.

    Yeah, 6.7 is practically unplayable right now. I’m honestly surprised you got that one partial uptier, I’ve gone like 25 battles in a row without one at 6.7 recently

      Up and down tiers shouldn't be in the game. I have no clue why this archaic ass system is still being used when there are enough players to get rid of it. It's a terrible system these days, much like a lot of Gaijin's systems. It was implemented at a time when the game had far fewer vehicles and needs a total rework. It's pretty ridiculous that 6.7 vehicles are just cannon fodder for 7.7 vehicles at all times. I have always had the same experience playing every BR between 2.0-5.7, just near constant up tiers with 1 or 2 non up tiers. I don't play the game much above 5.7 which is the only reason I even limited it to that but yeah, it's at least 80% to 20% in up tiers to down tiers.

    If you want to try a fun British vehicle try the SARC VI 6pdr or Concept 3. The guns are brilliant for their BR (minus the HE filler) and their speed makes for some rlly fun goofy moments whilst still being able to dominate several BRs above their allocated one

  • @SemoventeDa

    Hey Spook, you should play the Semovente 75/46 M43. It's a deeply overshadowed italian tank destroyer which can deliver an heavy punch but it's deeply ignored the potential it has.

    • @lolzers7986
      @lolzers7986 Рік тому +1

      The 75/34 m43 is also really good, its a shame its a folder vehicle honestly because it's really overlooked because of it, it has the same armor as the 75/46 but it's at 3.3 where it can only be penned frontally by tank destroyers and panzer 4's (and shermans can also pen it if they aim at a good spot but they tend to hit the sponsons or another heavily armored spot)
      I'd wager to say it's italy's only real heavy tank because of how effective its armor is at the BR its at.

    Spook, it *is* a proto T29 lol. By 1944 the Army didn’t want the M6 in service at all, but they found the T1E1 to be a sufficient test bed for the then in-development T29’s turret. The standardization name for the T1E1 was to be M6A2 were it to enter service, so the two test beds they made were designated M6A2E1.
    The front armor plate was never fitted btw, as it was a proposed upgrade for the M6A2 during the last attempt to get the M6 accepted into service, alongside a proposed up-gunning to the then brand new M3 90mm cannon.

    The uptier sadness is real. Recently unlocked the ARL44 on the french side (3.7BR) and got put up against KV85s

    This thing is one of my go-to vehicles to print SL and bully people who have no idea how to deal with it. It has a lot of shortcomings, and I usually despise heavies, but it has a few things that make it incredible if you know what you are doing. That 105 is a monster for over pressure. I find it very comparable damage and pen wise to the tiger 2 105. The high profile can be really helpful on some maps to shoot over cover people do not expect, although that can also be a curse since you can not always hide behind the same cover everyone else can. The biggest advantage this thing has in uptiers, though, is the number of leo players that are so used to point and clicking UFPs with their sabot. Before the sabot changes this things UFP was completely immune to 105 sabot past 500m as it shatters. I have not played it since the sabot changes, but I can only imagine it got stronger in that department

    Because of your wonderful channel, I got into tanks, and although I mained Germany (I know I know.) I had fun. But after so long of blowing shit up, I think it’s time to blow shit down, I’m switching to aviation, and I wanted to thank you for all your tips and criticism that got me so far 😂

    I really do not understand this game sometimes. Unlocked the Israeli AMX-13 and got constant uptiers to 7.7. Then I unlocked the Magach 1 and get constant uptiers to 8.3 (I have not had a single game at BR 7.3 with this thing, only 8.3). And it's like...where did all the 7.7 games go now?
