Skill4ltu's Community Clans (EU and NA) are currently recruiting. You can apply ingame, please read the requirements carefully before applying.
The first shell (with the longest reload) is a reserve shell. Don't use that.
The second shell (with the shortest reload) is the one used to calculate the DPM.
Basically this tank is a reverse autoreloader, with a reserve shell for clutch kills.
basically an IS3 A with a clutch shell (without the trash gun stats ofc)
The Italian TDs in Blitz have the same mechanic, except it's a 3 shell magazine. A Blitz UA-camr (Martimator) calls that last shell, the "Cuck Shell" because it really shouldn't do anything except sit and watch.
@@davegesell5470 lmao fitting name.
"The first shell (with the longest reload) is a reserve shell. Don't use that." hey hey hold on, how do I get to the second shell without shooting the first? 🙃
pretty wierd how the time difference between using the 'reserve' shell or the 2nd is like 3s.
50,000 BONDS for LION , i can hear CHIEFTAIN T95 FV 4201 laughing on the Corner 😂
Nobody’s going to spend on a washed up tier 8 medium tank from 10 years ago.
@KochiMi yep correction already xd
yeah of course its the clan reward tank that is still a monster
I have 40k bonds and I am saving for the clan wars event with Chieftain
@KochiMi xd lucky us this new lion doesn't have that unpenable turret like the chieftain xd yeah but so far it's still like a hard tank to play by seeing all these content creators right, chieftain still the god tier like hulldown using lion facing chieftain and let's see what happen xd
@KochiMi given current political climates....expect a nerf in the near future 😄
That reload is actually amazing. You just always double tap the first 2 shots, or You track with the first wait for repair and retrack with the 2nd. So you get to double track and be right at max DPM.
8:05 the stb is around 36 tons, lion 43. you were going down hill stb stopped. so yeah it rams well
Does anyone else think this has become a bit absurd? (the price, I mean)
The tank is fine imo, prices are bullshit tho. Except for Gold, you need more from every resource this year.
No. Last time 780 was cheaper but sold out in a couple of hours instead of days like planned
but but but its got teh attention deficit disorder loader.
At least its not some lets say BZ-666 or obj.666 with 350 all front armor and derp gun with 1200dmg and 280 pen. autoloader with rocket boosters. But to be honest I wont be surprised if they will sell this kind of tank in game.
@@0BlitZKieG0 Just wait... they will.
To summarize: decent tank for good players, but save your stuff.
I just witnessed a few days ago one of these being obliterated by our both artas. He was sent to Oblivion in like 2 seconds from full hp :))))
BZ-176 will have a field day with all these Lion
although in the game on Westfiled, he had more bounces than i expected
BZ-176 will melt this tank, no armor=quick snack for BZ-176 but even in armored tank BZ just snaps at weakspot and boom -800. Because now after playing against BZ it rarely misses
Skill forgot to check but actually Lion has better turret than Leopard. Whole gun mantlet is 250mm+ so tier 8 and 9 will have problem to go through.
What autoloaders really need is a "single fire mode". Let's say, by pressing a button, you can lock in your clip to whichever shell is currently loading. So that if you hold your fire button, it doesn't fire the shell that was already loaded, but instead waits for the next one to be loaded. So that you don't lose DPM.
Would be a cool mod... Might try to make it myself
IMO, if you have the awareness to switch between single-shot and autoreloader mode, you're better off learning how to manage you shells. And if you don't - this mod is just going to get in your way. (Though it may make sense in the case of this tank, to keep you from wasting your spare shell)
Thanks Skill for this video.
When I see kickbaby one, I would like to get this tank any cost ( new italian med miam miam)
But in few seconds of your first battle, I decide to keep my ressouces and play with my progetto 65 😉
Really only proves you are slow... QB is right... this tank is amazing... I missed out on it... and yeh Prog got nerfed... u must be crying...
second shell is around 7sec and already included with the intraclip so i think its actually good mechanic
I thought it was another fictional tank and that WG would just fake a story to it look like real or something... Turns out, it actually exists
The real name of the tank its " Carro da Combattimento Leone" (Yes, CC Leone) and its in Italian "Combat car Lion" , but it was supposed to have an Italian Single shell 105mm gun compatible for NATO ammo, so we got another MBT on a WW1/WW2 tanks game :/
Fun fact, it was supposed to be called "Leopardino" (Little Leopard) lol
It's not been a "WWII tanks game" for years and years. Most higher-tier tanks are from (or inspired by) Cold War designs, with the exception of German tanks because of stupid.
@@pirig-gal oh rip
The game hasn't been WW2 oriented for a long ass time dude, the inclusion of cold war tanks was absolutely necessary to fill the gap for high tiers. What I would like is the addition of more cold war era maps to reflect this.
There's really nothing bad about the inclusion of cold war vehicles (some of which existed irl) so long as WW2 era tanks remain effective in their given tiers. I would argue that some still definitely are, i.e. E series, T29, T20, IS-2, etc.
@@pirig-gal And yet German WW2 high tiers often dominate the replay channels. They may not have the same consistency as the sweaty-biased UDES or STB, but it's not uncommon that you see them racking up insane amounts of damage in the right scenarios.
I think it's good to have some top-tier variety in the game in the form of the E-100 and Jagdpanzer E100. Would it really be better to make them lower tier? And would there really be any suitable, historical replacements at tier 10 that don't implicate something far too modern like the Leopard 2? I don't think so.
Interesting tank. I think the combo of poor-ish gun handling and 4 second intra-clip keeps this thing from being a true monster. I actually think it is quite reasonably balanced (looking at limited gameplay, at least)... I would have liked to get a second opportunity to get the Obj 780, but meh.
This tank autoloader is made for intuition, you can change to normal to gold and have 3 shells in no time
Thanks for these videos skil. Your critique helps me not to get sucked into the hype of a new tank. If i went head to head with this tank in myTVP50/51 with some distance and cover, i could out trade him. I dont need another autoloader that costs a crazy amount of gold--thanks again!
to this tank the perfect song would be "i can only count to four"
Looks like a nice tank in skills hands. In mine ? I’ll save my bonds.
WG might fix the reload issue becuase it's not a premium tank that gives extra xp/silver.
I mean the more shells in the mag, the longer the reload...makes no sense.
It seems to me like WG is still not sure how to balance auto-reloaders
They don't know how to balance anything in the game 😂
My strategy is to play tier 7, if we all did this we’d screw them and the money they wasted for a month after it comes out. Then the pay to win folks could just crap 💩 on each other.
Its the say way on the 703-2 double Barrel you always keep your last round if you fire all of them theres a Penalty. same with this tank you keep three at all times if you need that Reserve fourth one you fire all........
Blind shooting @27:00 is absolutely insane!
With 4,5s intra reload and this aiming time i would rather stick with 140/stb , slightly longer reload but no clip and still maintain some armor
420 alpha kinda big deal/difference
Also the burst potential for endgame is a huuuge advantage over those tanks.
@@adambalogh7239 What burst are you talking about with 4.5 sec intra clip reload?
@@invisible6332 its still techically a burst dont get lost in details.
@@adambalogh7239 The Char and the Carro doesn't famous for their burst as far as i remember and those two has 4 sec intra clip.
In todays wot where a tier 10 heavy doing Jagdpanzer E100 damage in 2 sec and a tier 8 heavy running around doing 800-900 damage a shot i wouldn't even dare to think a tank with 4.5 sec intra clip could be called burst...
Finally i can spend my collage tuition on pixel tank
Skeel thank you so much for your videos. I want to give you a couple other English options when something is more true than you are saying it is. You normally say "to say dat de least." You could say, "... and that's an understatement." If it's negative you could say, "and I am being generous." Or, "This gun is terrible, and I'm being gracious." Or, "This is about as useful as a screen door on a submarine." Keep up your hard work and amazing contributions Skill. We appreciate you, to say dat de least. ps. it's actually "to say the least" you don't need the extra dat.
"I am getting into the rhythm, I am getting into the groove, I am getting better" while:
1. Firing full gold
2. Fighting absolute muppets 2 tiers below him
3. Having the most egregious rigged CC RNG I've seen this year
Good stuff.
Cool another Medium with TD dispersion... at least the Leopards are not alone on the red line anymore.
The ram in the first battle was buffed by your driver skill though, keep that in mind.
Edit 2:From 6:00 Skill voice sounds like fast forward,kinda hilarious to hear:)
Bbbbut skill, that is how my leopard 1 behaves
That thing has some awesome turret armor :D
I'm not gonna repeat last years mistake again,i'm not gonna sell my kidneys to buy a tank
Where are people getting so many blueprints from?
The reload mechanic is op and the best version of them all, insane dpm, insane burst good alpha. Luckily tho, gun handling seems little rng fiesta and armor only good against tier 8. Would be curious to see if people use it in clan fights, could work pretty well.
AP with 1080 m/s velocity isn't great for tier X but it's not tragic. That's very usable for a good player. Plus the AP comes with benefits of better normilization and less pen loss over distance. The issue is since it's an auto-reloader to switch between shell types you'd need to empty the entire clip and send your DPM to tier 2 status or have Intuition and quickly reload that first 'reserve shell' as it's called before and then let the other 3 reload normally... Still a time taking task.
All bond equipment, food, directive, and max skill crew!! OMG.
Interesting tank. I could buy it, theoretically, but I'd have to nearly bankrupt my account , so no. On the reverse-auto-F-loader it's actually quite powerful. You have basically best of auto-reloader and reverse-auto-reloader. The intra clip is my biggest issue with that though. Not really for bursting. More for high temporary dpm... with +1 insurance.
Overall if this doesn't happen to be massively OP, which it might, looks like good credit sync. I don't think most WoT whales have the skill to play this, but it's still cool.
The fact that players running this will shoot pure gold, as Skill-almighty points out, is not nice though.
P.S> On the Italian MT line for some reason I love the Standard B and have very good success with it, but can't click with the Progetto 65 .. and this thing looks a lot like t10 Standard B + 1 shell insurance. Damn, now I'm tempted.
Don't think I'm gonna drop my loot for this tank. I want the Gonsalo, Borrasque 1st before I even touch this tank and Tier 10 is nightmarish for me atm.
I love how skill4ltu keeps it always 100% and tells us the truth and how it is! Keeping it funny at the same time! Hahahaha Thanks Skill! I would pay no more then 10k gold for this Tank.
I think that the developer drinked vodka to much when he calculated the shells reload T_T
I know it's a gimmick, But I didn't get a Object 780, so I will absolutely be going for a numbered version. Hopefully a low number.
WG: Let's ignore the current problems of the game and give them another premium tank to chew on.
7:43 WIGGLE WIGGLE WIGGLE we are going for ramming
" PAUSE"
PAUSE ....
DAAAMN :DDDDDDDDDDDDD
That's exactly why I did convert all of my gold in free exp when there were reductions for convertions (1-2 weeks ago)
Good for you. Now quickly give WG back all the funds you've got from X-mas boxes XD
@@kermitage wouldn't do anything else with it anyways. Good for me ideed.
Same, except I spent my other free exp on researching the Mino and VZ.55. I thought I had time anyways but I wasn’t expedting the Assembly shop to come this early. I might have to spend the gold from holiday ops
With this new reload system you never know how much of the shots enemy have loaded.
they just nerfed the aim time on the moving vehicle after the sale
Made mistake with 780. Not making same mistake again and i can't anyway as I'm on holiday for 3 weeks so cant even give in to temptation as a tank collector.
thank you, Sir, for the easy decision to pass on this one -
Skieelllll, once again...Please video of wz-132 chinese tier VIII light tank. Greetings!! ;)
what is weird? You play like on a is3A, but keep 1 "reserve" shot. Get to position, 3 shots and keep on like a regular cyclic tank
I feel that spending credits is the best way to buy this tenk (after blueprints). Its the only currency that you can grind for free reasonnably quick. What will i do with my 200mio if not spend them? Stock up on even more improved rations and equipment?
50k bonds no thanks I’ll stick with Leo 1 thanks. And in tier 10 everybody fires gold so it has the same armour as the Leo.
6:21 To summarize: EBR has better armor
it looks like cooperation Leopard with Progetto. This autoreloader system looks like - "Sasha, this tank is nothing special to pay 12500000 credits, do something weird!" Basicily - it has potential (like every tank with clip in this game actually), but it will have some troubles on tunnel maps. Honestly? Still nothing special to spend 125mln credits. But what is good? Wargaming didn't made broken tank like 279E or Chieftain
Can we compare this with Carro45!?
Time to dust off the FV 4005
Lol
U didnt post any vid about the new tier x japaneze clan war reward
This was an OVERDOSE of Skill! Someone call an ambulance 🙂
they nerfed the armor of this at least, because then it would really be leopard 1 hulldown
From free xp is limited and the blueprint is well
Skill, this tank has worse gun handling on the move than the old Leopard, so you have to take that into consideration, just like with the old "accurate" Leopard ;)
Ofc we can play only randoms ^^ cuz cheiftain still op on 10t and cuz one tank rest " special" have ban for others modes.
3 Shell Reverse-Auto-Reloader +1 :D
WG needs to adjust credit earnings for tier 10's. At least make similar to other tiers.
Taking 15 shots (5 where gold) , finishing 5th on team, Victory, and staying alive. This should not equal -16,400 credits. .....thanks Skill Rock on 🤘😎
Maybe lion need modifiedconfiguration because its weak ammorack.
Is it a Leo 1 with an autoloader?
No.... thats the bait , it just looks like it at first
its like leo 1 with autoloader and damaged gun
@@philosophist9562 and engine
3 things i think.
1: if the Leopard 1 gets the same turret as the Lion it won’t be super unfair
2: the intra clip shot will reset the dpm at 4.5 sec of the 7.1, meaning it will take 11.6 sec to get next shot out at the ‘highest dpm’
3: this thing’s gun is terrible XD
Skill, have some hot soup.
And ask your health insurance company about insure your voice.
Yep, like the football players insuring their legs.
I'd like to have it, but this price is not great, if I could use all of my blueprints it'd be good deal for me, but they limited blueprints so spending also 620k of free exp and 1100 gold is way too much in my opinion.
I missed my chance to convert xp on discount,now I will have to spend more
These assembly shop tanks had never any influence on the meta. Just think about the last one, the Obj. 780, who burned like a dry loo role. Did anyone have seen this "mighty" heavy on the battlefield in the last months? Not me. Just spare your resources, especially bonds, gold and credits and don't get fooled by a possible unique and shiny serial number.
So....an autoloader Leopard ?....meh I'm gonna save for auctions
its the A,D,Do loader... the loaders trying but he gets distracted.
attention deficit disorder loader.
What is that in Canadian 💵 lol ! WOTizm to the max... Also you just raised the Banana bar...! 🍌
Hi SKILL , can you please ask WG why they insist on FIXING games on the EU server please ??????
Does anyone know if you need to restart game for the shop to appear at 18:00? Or can you be in the garage and it will become available?
What shop
@@dreadfull5917 assembly
Welp look like all that holiday loot box gold about to come in hand 360,000 gold just sitting so 55k isn't that bad and I didn't get to snatch a 780 last year so I might jump on this one.
Damn my friend, how much did you spend on loot boxes ?
Hope you enjoy the new tank when ya get it!
Chur from NZ
Wow, I'll have to skip on this one... 55k gold? 125m credit? Thank God I was sitting already.....
Is this tank really worth it? Who cares? My right kidney has no regrets.
Billions must grind.
thank u Skill, to expensive for bad player as I am ...thx bro
Inflation is hiting hard, even in WoT
As usual only Skill provides useful information.
so they nerf Progetto 65 that has way worse gun handling because its OP and then they add this shit to the game.... dude... its hard for me to keep playing the game I love
So this is the 4th type of reloader. First is the normal reloader 2nd is reverse reloader 3rd is improved reloader and this 4th is fucked up reloader niceee weeegeee.
Great, more autoloaders. Just what the game needs.
Tank looks okay, price options are ridiculous
Thats the OF-40 a tank in real life for the italians
Skill, this is an Spagettio tank, not a Beer tank.
10 bond vstabs rammers or vents for a tank? Grinding that is insane.
nobody with a brain would waste the chance to kit out like 15 tanks with pure bond equipment lmao
TY🙏🙏
Atleast its not a 279e... Yet...
the more players buys this tank for the incredible greedy price, the more expensive everything else will be in the future for everybody playing this game. Have some thresholds and do not buy it no matter what. I have 1 mil. free XP, but not going to waste them on it. WG is getting greedier and greedier with every new event.
BTW: tank is Italian, not German (although it looks like) and it would be better to compare it with Progetto or Carrot. End of the tank is raised, so your gun depression is affected when aiming rear/side.
If the Wargaming instead did something with the fckin cheaters, 4 shot Emils, impenetrable kpzs 07, and aimbot clickers, it would be so much better than spending time to make this pointless vehicle.
Well it is progetto on steroids
is it worth it? well if you do not have anything else to spend free exp or credits, why the hell not
€180 at my exchange rate. Doubt a single tank is worth that much unless you are a hardcore collector.
Lion? More like a OF-40 in my eye lol
Playing like the 122PM
WG give my bc 25t that dpm and that gunhandling!!!!!!!!!!!!!
