I love the fact that after all of these years, Quicky Baby still is grounded and understands players like myself that on my best days of playing, I am a average player. It makes me want to watch his videos even more when I see himself in a situation I have been in many times when playing the game. Thanks for showing us your games with the stock tanks and keep it up forever!
Currently also getting back after about 9 years. All a bit confusing with all the new stuff hehe and I don't want to spend the meager resources I have on bad things. Probably will play a lot of tier 4 and 5 before I get my, al be it meager, skills back. So good luck.
Id suggest playing for free only. When you compare the T26E4 Super Pershing to the Iron Arnie, it's obvious power creep. Power creep means you must CONTINUALLY spend money to be competitive. Or just play for free and don't care.
Hey Quicky, do you think you would ever do a viewer review type series, where your viewers send in their replays and you review the game, give tips, and show how you would’ve played differently or better in those situations? I think it would be really helpful for all of the newer players, including me, who don’t know the small niches of this game yet.
He covers replays from others, just not as much as he used to. He even had a replay site all the way back If you want a good chance of him seeing your replay, you should upload it to wotreplays and put quickybaby in the title.
I gotta admit, i don't rage in WoT for probably 7 years now. Back when i started i was sometimes over my own mistakes. People do their thing and i believe the only constant you have per Round is yourself. So try to improve on your skills to become the better player, no matter what others do.
This video is great; like everyone I'm sure, I've been raged at in chat and I was playing at the best of my ability with a tank that was not fully upgraded. And quite a few times that has happened, I assisted in a carry and we ended up winning. It's also great to see content creators playing in stock tanks or tanks that are not fully upgraded. QB really shows his skill here given that the tank was the underdog of the games.
Uniscums want you to sacrifice all your HP so they, as the elite players they are, can get the glory. They do not understand how to play a support role nor do they understand that being the bait while staying safe is the best play. In the first replay, letting the BZ get the kill on the M103 was the best play with both HTs keeping their HP and the BZ getting a 1 shot. There's an art to playing a support role and excelling in lower tier/stock tanks. It's about knowing your limitations and using your presence as much as dealing damage. Gold Spammers and meta only players don't understand this concept very well. It's easy to take the best hull down DPM monsters (with or without good gun depression) and camp the hull down spots in a corridor fight. It's hard to be the under-penned tank with less armor having to dig them out and QB showed it can be done in game 1 with a bit of teamwork.
15:00 Is there any particular reason why QB does not also activate the difference between HP? Now, he has to manually calculate it every time and actually check both values. With the +1000 or -3000 number, he would always have a clean overview of what's going on 🤔
Great video QB. I admit I took a break from you in the past, because you had a tendency to rage. You've always been a great player, and now you've grown. Love the message. Keep it up!
Omg i cant agree enough. I'm a newbie and currently stock on the t28 prot and it's driving me insane. Made me wanna quit blitz after a few weeks of playing lol
@@TamagoTurtle There's a big boss mode, farm it as much as you can! You can do it! Earns you a lot of creds too if you got premium and some credit boosters

The best and worst thing about this game is how much you get invested. It does take time, study and overall knowing of the tanks. Sometimes the easiest thing for you, might be the learning curve of another. It was a while ago but one of the best videos was,” we were all noobs once.”
f*ck yes, i can relate to that so strongly. I see so often people who play the Italian TDs sit at the back of the map even when they are top tier. Like the Italian TDs are basically heavy tanks who do best at the frontline. Like how can there be so many players out there who think that simply one tank belongs to the TD class that it is best to hardcore camp in it? So frustrating. Like people don't even look at the statistics before purchasing a new tank. So infuriating. There are so many players who play badly not because they are new at the game, but simply because they are incredibly dumb. And this is what makes me mad most of the time, that stupidity.
@@robinkhn2547 More ignorance than stupidity, I think. Newer players see WoT as an FPS game. QB always offers examples of team play, which is how older players have always understood the game.
Stock Grinds make you appreciate the Tank after. I had the worse grind in IS-M and now I enjoy the armor and the gun is okay but it's playable rather than the IS gun and turret.
Sometimes it's about distracting the enemy to allow the DPM of your team time to work or getting eyes on the enemy and allow the team to angle their tanks and take cover from incoming fire. I'm working my way up a couple tech trees (British light, Polish medium, Italian td, American Yoh) and you just can't risk over-extending yourself and getting overwhelmed by better and higher tier tanks. Any guns, armor and vision that you can keep in the game longer only helps win the round.
Ah yes. Been there, done that. It was the most pain and suffering in my years of WOT.
Рік тому
Or maybe try the IS4's line as your first line.. Then suffer in the ST-1 with the stock tank for like a decade.. Been there when I started this game back in 2013..
The stock M103 is a fully upgraded T29 with 500 extra health. The armor is similar enough that I cannot say which is better. Possibly, the worst tier IX stock grind was the Conqueror, before the 32-Pdr replaced the 20-Pdr as the upgraded gun of the Caernarvon. The stock Conqueror is a fully upgraded Caernarvon. The 20-Pdr was bad enough on a tier VIII heavy. On a tier IX heavy, it was yet another cruel and obscure practical joke perpetrated against people who wanted to play UK tanks. What I will not soon forget was when my stock Caernarvon (17-Pdr gun) was face hugged by T-54 light weight (tier VIII LIGHT tank with an 85mm gun) and came off a poor second in every category, except the thickness of the upper glacis. I had to search for a spot on his round turret flat enough for my APCR to penetrate, while his standard AP went right through my gun mantlet. As bad as my average damage of less than a thousand per match in the Caernarvon was, two thirds of all players were even worse, so I managed to earn the first mark of excellence. The overall experience of grinding the UK heavy tank line was sufficiently bad that I could only wonder if these tanks were ever good, before being power crept to oblivion.
the amount of pain i had to go through to grind the M103 to the T110E5 is crazy, I'm glad I had so many blueprints for the tier 10 to never need to play the M103 longer than needed
As a father of girls who loved Barbie movie and games, your comments from 20:10-20:20 about uninstalling WOT and playing Barbie Princess Horse Adventures made me laugh more than I have in a while!!!
Most tier 9 stock grinds are brutal particularly in the UK tech tree. The only thing that gets me slightly frustrated are elc even 90's on the enemy team, those tanks tend to make the blood pressure rise a bit.
A lot of tier 9 tanks are absolutely insane to bear through and probably isnt worth it to grind unless you have free exp. Modules can range from 20k up to 60k exp cost Im so glad I decided to go for obj 430u as one of my first tier 10 tanks because the obj 430 grind is so friendly to new players
I think the worst stock grind is the tier 9 YOH tank. I was so frustrated playing that POS that I dumped about 200k free xp to bypass the thing entirely.
I used to rage at some players back in the day, but I stopped years ago. These days, if I see a tanker underperforming, I try and give tips and tricks that I have gathered over the years. It is one thing to try and help people to improve, but name-calling just doesn't help. As QB pointed out... name-calling only brings down the team as a whole.
@@QuickyBabyTV very true. I used to watch roommates of mine in college rage at their screens in LoL. And they wondered why nobody wanted to hang out at the apartment. haha
M103 is not that bad, honestly the tier 8 gun is fine. Something like a T-44 with 144 pen vs tier 10, 9 or even 8 is just stupid and you need like 60K XP for the tracks, turret and then gun. For M103 you only need like 22K for the turret. For me it's all about the gun. I can play anything as long as I can pen with standard rounds.
Great video quicky! Been a sub since the very beginning when WOT was pixels on a screen , long before the HD version came out. I hope you are still available as a commander for purchase in the store Cheers and happy new year from Canada!!
On the "disadvantage" narrative, I had won 3 of 10 games in a recent session. I was getting angry. Time to take a break. I came back, cooled down, and installed a mantra in my brain: 1) win, 2) take out one enemy tank. The final result was higher than my regular win rate. Over about 50 games I moved from the disasterous 30% to around 50%. I had to cheat by playing tech tree tanks, but one's I love. The ELC bis is outrageous at Tier V. I have it with 50% cammo. And the German Tier 3 Aus III E is insane, especially now that I stuck QB in as the commander with all of the free skills. I now even have brothers in arms on it. Usually I play for fun, thus my low win rate. On this occasion I played to rescue my stats. The lesson is that people play for different reasons and those reasons change over time. I am also happily over raging. When playing a light, I tell the team where I am going, and I do what I say. Otherwise, I am all about praise for good work. I particularly like praising arty for great assistance. Perhaps it is obvious that I play Lights. While my win rate is below 50%, my ability to predict a game outcome after 2 minutes is far higher. My mission, like every player, is to be there in the last two.
the 50b is one of those tanks whose gun handling trolls you so bad. there have been so many times i will bounce or miss entire mags from like 30m away just because rng says so. so infuriating to play autoloaders sometimes
I was berated by a Jpanther E100 while I was playing my elc even 90. We were on prokarovka or better know a campinabushka for LTs. Instead of going to the obvious line 1 like all the other LTs I decided to camp in the village at the 8 line. I sat there until 3 opposition MTs cruised by and started up the hill. I waited till my team engaged the MTs I was spotting and tied them down. Once they were fully engaged I made a run deep into the opposition back field spotted and eliminated the enemy SPG while being fired upon by a M48 Patton which hit me twice before I was able to get into cover. By then my team had finished off the enemy MTs on the hill and was rolling into the backfield with me. With my move we were able to secure 3/4 of the battlefield and lock the remaining enemy into the campers corner of the remaining 1/4 of the board. The raging TD player felt like i didn't do enough spotting despite the fact of securing everything east of the railroad by my spotting efforts and eliminating a SPG which would have wrecked the TD had it had the chance. But hey you can't please everyone.
I hated that tank when Grinding it, got the T11 and never went back to it. After many many years went back to the M103 and I love it. One of my best tanks.
M103 is by far my most played tank. Around 1600 games. Love it. But also never had to play it stock. However I remember the T34 to be a pain stock too. The T29s gun on Tier 9 until you git the 120mm.
Thanks for reminding the community that it is only a game. Everyone needs to do their best and stop bullying players that may just not have the experience or benefits that they do in the game.
Im sick of doing death runs in my arty at end game as all the pros sit on their hands not moving in incase a pixel gets hurt and never mind spotting or tracking anything.
@@rodhales9536are you serious how much spotting do you need when i played arty to finish campaigns i finish the missions in 20 games because there's always someone to shoot
it's always the "good" players, the 52-55% players, that behave like douches in WoT, that are super greedy and tryhard with all gold and screaming at allies for not being their lifeguards when they make suicidal and overly greedy plays. The really good and really high winrate players are more understanding most of the time, and way more helpful and supportive.
I would disagree. The better players know the game, the features and the players. They have seen it all. It is usually one of the bad players who are the complaining ones.
I've been using the winter arcade cabinet game mode for some tier 8 stock grinds. Playing that way, I appreciate the point about acting in more of a support role. Might normally burn free XP for things like the IS-3 turret.
It's actually even better than Frontlines. Just go, try your best, you die, pick up another tank and just continue. Bad stock tanks can be researched fast this way. It's one of the best game modes introduced in the game in a long time, it should be available to all players at least a couple of days per month.
I think the most I've suffered in a stock tank was T30. Oh my god, the non-top gun is so horrible. I've had like 34% winrate for so many battles, getting basically no damage, so no experience. 60k experience for the gun it took me a while, but after getting it and the engine, it feels like a whole new vehicle.
Ty QB for videos like this. I consider myself an average player. I have a few matches where I do great, then a bunch where the motivation of the great matches makes me play stupid. I have learned to appreciate Stock. It does make me play smarter once I upgrade. My favorite tank to play is my T95.
Wise words, QB. Don't you love it when it's the teammate that died in the first couple minutes that spends the rest of the battle telling everyone else how to play the game?
The M103 with the stock 105mm gun is brutal, and the top gun, the 120mm M58, is very good, but honestly the T122 120mm gun is completely adequate for that tank.
I had the hardest time with stock Indian Panzer. All in all, even non stock Indian pz is underwhelming, but facing tier X with stock gun was very hard, especially for a beginner.
Proko, totally winnable game and our even90 just sit still in a bush the entire game, while not afk, letting the whole team melt. He "survive" the lost game. Me doing 4k damage in a tier 9 heavy could not do anything to save the game. I totally raged. That player didn't even try and he wanted to lose. And he turned out to be a 55% win rater.
Bruh, this M103 on Blitz was one of the reason why i dropped the whole American Heavy line 3 years ago. That stock really sucks and that mid 120mm was inaccurate as hell. Got the whole line now but i probaly will never want to regrind the E5 line again
I've had the M103 back in the days and absolutely hated it ! It felt like a downgrade from the T32. Might have to revisit it nowadays, to re-evaluate it.
I've been wanting the lion for ages. ever since the italian line was hinted at and many brought up the autoloader idea leopard 1. but boy, not enjoying hoarding resources like bonds, Research blueprints, credits, free XP, etc. because no clue what it's gonna come in like. or could be a mission marathon like the 114 where I'll have to set aside time to grind. what fun...
@@ryokajimosensei2780 Indeed, if you unlock all in ARL 44, its top gun is the AMX M4-51's top gun too, so you could mount it from start if the weight limit and the turret doesn't restrict it.
I have a simple concept to rage in WoT: Open chat, complain and press escape instead of enter I was able to let off some steam and make sure that this does not affect other players.
as someone working through the tech tree I can vouch for how difficult and frustrating it can be using stock. I comments off as there are so many peeps who just want to troll lesser players like me. And I ahte the BZ one shotting my tier 6 tanks
Maybe the 50b had bad luck. Don't blame people for that. I get some games with nearly no damge 'cause every shot missed or is a bounce - and no, this is not a bad aim, it' s rng. RNG Jesus gives and takes...
QB, let me (47% WR, WN8 of 838, 47k matches, boomer old fart) offer a sincere word of thanks, for calling for some restraint, if not civility, in chat. I’ve had many hours of great fun in the game. I think the aspect I have enjoyed the least is the incessant drivel clogging the chat channel. If nothing else, remaining players should realize that it’s like static on tactical comms that limit useful communication at a time when it’s most needed. They only want to focus on themselves, at the expense of the team. Thanks for the voice of reason. Best 🎉of the 🎉New Year🎉
I got my first ever 10 kill game in a stock hellcat, I was so happy all day. Recently I finished upgrading the UDES 14 5 and saw a stock one on my team in a battle, everybody was complaining to the player, I felt for the guy, the frustration of upgrading that tank was very fresh in my mind.
Yesterday some guy messaged me after the game to harass me for playing a 430 passively yet at the end of the game I had more damage blocked, done and spotted than he did. The guy then shit on me for not having a good wn8 despite the fact that the game exist for people to have fun while playing and that’s what I do. If you don’t have fun while playing a game then what’s the point in playing it? Edit: My 430 has a 60% win ratio after 50 battles despite my wn8 being lower and that’s because so don’t play for my statistics I play for my team and to have fun.
been playing for 10 years, but not aware of being able to use experience to buy a tank...... other than on auctions, which Ive never figured out when or on what site they are held. Does WG announce this? do you have to bid at 2 in the morning?
As a F2P player, i got through the M103 grind very quickly, did not struggle at all, people did not even shoot me in the turret assuming they would not pen, lol.
Low-mid wr players: “oop yeah that one was my fault” “Yeah I’m just having fun” (Most) high wr players: “Oh the battle isn’t going my way lemme find someone to blame it all on rq”
I recently had a teammate rage at me in exactly the same position on Himmelsdorf. "Report T95", he said as if I was playing so poorly as to be breaking the rules. I was, indeed disappointed with the result of the game. Would you believe 6149 damage ISN'T an Ace?
I love the fact that after all of these years, Quicky Baby still is grounded and understands players like myself that on my best days of playing, I am a average player.

Don't do it !!
Currently also getting back after about 9 years. All a bit confusing with all the new stuff hehe and I don't want to spend the meager resources I have on bad things. Probably will play a lot of tier 4 and 5 before I get my, al be it meager, skills back. So good luck.
Hope you have some fun.

Usually I play for fun, thus my low win rate. On this occasion I played to rescue my stats. The lesson is that people play for different reasons and those reasons change over time.
I am also happily over raging. When playing a light, I tell the team where I am going, and I do what I say. Otherwise, I am all about praise for good work. I particularly like praising arty for great assistance. Perhaps it is obvious that I play Lights. While my win rate is below 50%, my ability to predict a game outcome after 2 minutes is far higher. My mission, like every player, is to be there in the last two.
the 50b is one of those tanks whose gun handling trolls you so bad. there have been so many times i will bounce or miss entire mags from like 30m away just because rng says so. so infuriating to play autoloaders sometimes
This is same thing that tiger II has stock turret and it armor is only 100 but when you get better turret it will be 250.
I was berated by a Jpanther E100 while I was playing my elc even 90. We were on prokarovka or better know a campinabushka for LTs. Instead of going to the obvious line 1 like all the other LTs I decided to camp in the village at the 8 line. I sat there until 3 opposition MTs cruised by and started up the hill. I waited till my team engaged the MTs I was spotting and tied them down. Once they were fully engaged I made a run deep into the opposition back field spotted and eliminated the enemy SPG while being fired upon by a M48 Patton which hit me twice before I was able to get into cover. By then my team had finished off the enemy MTs on the hill and was rolling into the backfield with me. With my move we were able to secure 3/4 of the battlefield and lock the remaining enemy into the campers corner of the remaining 1/4 of the board. The raging TD player felt like i didn't do enough spotting despite the fact of securing everything east of the railroad by my spotting efforts and eliminating a SPG which would have wrecked the TD had it had the chance. But hey you can't please everyone.
I hated that tank when Grinding it, got the T11 and never went back to it. After many many years went back to the M103 and I love it. One of my best tanks.
First!
Love these epic battles at 16:25. 18:01 Lots of skill and teamwork needed. Total chaos
M103 is by far my most played tank. Around 1600 games. Love it. But also never had to play it stock. However I remember the T34 to be a pain stock too. The T29s gun on Tier 9 until you git the 120mm.
Thanks for reminding the community that it is only a game. Everyone needs to do their best and stop bullying players that may just not have the experience or benefits that they do in the game.
Good thing that Tier10(hah) BZ was there in the end, to provide cover. Also a rare instance of arty being a team player, and not drowning or afk'ing.
Arty re always team players, it's the dolts who don't light up the enemy that keep them from doing more. Or the meds who snipe instead of flank.
@@animalyze7120 heres the salty arty who chirps in chat while doing nothing
Im sick of doing death runs in my arty at end game as all the pros sit on their hands not moving in incase a pixel gets hurt and never mind spotting or tracking anything.
@@rodhales9536are you serious how much spotting do you need when i played arty to finish campaigns i finish the missions in 20 games because there's always someone to shoot
it's always the "good" players, the 52-55% players, that behave like douches in WoT, that are super greedy and tryhard with all gold and screaming at allies for not being their lifeguards when they make suicidal and overly greedy plays.
The really good and really high winrate players are more understanding most of the time, and way more helpful and supportive.
I would disagree. The better players know the game, the features and the players. They have seen it all.
It is usually one of the bad players who are the complaining ones.
Well, that chrysler player was Polish apparently. What a shame...
The timing couldn’t be any better. I just got the M103
i just finished the stock grind of the amx 65t and that tank is horrendous
I’ve recently been suffering through the stock T32. I’m almost there though, just a little bit longer ugh
Lol that Chrysler raging at you after they just show their side to the M103
I've been using the winter arcade cabinet game mode for some tier 8 stock grinds. Playing that way, I appreciate the point about acting in more of a support role. Might normally burn free XP for things like the IS-3 turret.
It's actually even better than Frontlines. Just go, try your best, you die, pick up another tank and just continue. Bad stock tanks can be researched fast this way. It's one of the best game modes introduced in the game in a long time, it should be available to all players at least a couple of days per month.
Happy New Year, Mr.QB
I think the most I've suffered in a stock tank was T30. Oh my god, the non-top gun is so horrible. I've had like 34% winrate for so many battles, getting basically no damage, so no experience. 60k experience for the gun it took me a while, but after getting it and the engine, it feels like a whole new vehicle.
Ty QB for videos like this. I consider myself an average player. I have a few matches where I do great, then a bunch where the motivation of the great matches makes me play stupid. I have learned to appreciate Stock. It does make me play smarter once I upgrade. My favorite tank to play is my T95.
Happy New Year QB from Toronto, cheers mate
A friend has been loving the AMX 65 t grind. only cursing at the tank itself every time he plays it.
Happy new year 2023 QB!
This video embodies a New Year’s resolution.
i love when the light is sniping from behind the td s in my games etc
Wise words, QB. Don't you love it when it's the teammate that died in the first couple minutes that spends the rest of the battle telling everyone else how to play the game?
after playing for 7 years; i usually go after the tech tree "grind" during String Theory week . makes it much better.
m103 whel fully upgraded is such a good tank to play
Got to love how the barrels cut through buildings 😆
This is how I feel playing fully upgraded tanks.
The M103 with the stock 105mm gun is brutal, and the top gun, the 120mm M58, is very good, but honestly the T122 120mm gun is completely adequate for that tank.
I had the hardest time with stock Indian Panzer. All in all, even non stock Indian pz is underwhelming, but facing tier X with stock gun was very hard, especially for a beginner.
people forget that they also had stock tanks once
Wot players are the quickest players to blame someone else if u die just leave the battle and play a different vehicle, this was a great video qb
You KNOW our next cat's being named Fido.
A stock grind that really got me raging was the wz-120, it was soo painful
Proko, totally winnable game and our even90 just sit still in a bush the entire game, while not afk, letting the whole team melt. He "survive" the lost game. Me doing 4k damage in a tier 9 heavy could not do anything to save the game.
I totally raged. That player didn't even try and he wanted to lose.
And he turned out to be a 55% win rater.
QB, I understand your advocating not being toxic in chat but unlike streamers most of us cannot rage verbally with an audience 😞
Thanks QB. I also play for the credits to upgrade. Some are VERY painful.
It was a smart play after all. Good Job QB
Happy New year from a WoT Console player. Been watching you for ages now you're videos are always amazing.
Bruh, this M103 on Blitz was one of the reason why i dropped the whole American Heavy line 3 years ago. That stock really sucks and that mid 120mm was inaccurate as hell. Got the whole line now but i probaly will never want to regrind the E5 line again
I've had the M103 back in the days and absolutely hated it ! It felt like a downgrade from the T32.
Might have to revisit it nowadays, to re-evaluate it.
It's a lot better
I've been wanting the lion for ages. ever since the italian line was hinted at and many brought up the autoloader idea leopard 1.
but boy, not enjoying hoarding resources like bonds, Research blueprints, credits, free XP, etc. because no clue what it's gonna come in like.
or could be a mission marathon like the 114 where I'll have to set aside time to grind.
what fun...
Yeah I just did a chinese heavy run on the common test to make sure I have enough blue prints saved up for that it seems I do
Hey QB, wanna know what one of the most painless grinds was for me? The ARL 44. Don't know why. I had it stock, but kept having great games in it
Wait till you get to AMX m4-51
@@ryokajimosensei2780 Is the stock grind on the M4 51 painless? that turret seems kinda sus to me
@@Danut2 the gun has already good pen doe, at 257. It should be a breeze to unlock
@@ryokajimosensei2780 Indeed, if you unlock all in ARL 44, its top gun is the AMX M4-51's top gun too, so you could mount it from start if the weight limit and the turret doesn't restrict it.
Winter time wot is so relaxing
I have a simple concept to rage in WoT:
Open chat, complain and press escape instead of enter
I was able to let off some steam and make sure that this does not affect other players.
Stock tanks are best used as meat-shield. I even used my St Emil for that purpose. Gives you some xp for spots.
B1 was absolute hell
as someone working through the tech tree I can vouch for how difficult and frustrating it can be using stock. I comments off as there are so many peeps who just want to troll lesser players like me. And I ahte the BZ one shotting my tier 6 tanks
I didn't know north spawn going to hill was changed. Haven't played this map in a while.
I did the German TD Tech tree to get the Sturmtiger and i did it, it was very hard. And not just because of stock, the gun depression.
Maybe the 50b had bad luck. Don't blame people for that. I get some games with nearly no damge 'cause every shot missed or is a bounce - and no, this is not a bad aim, it' s rng. RNG Jesus gives and takes...
QB, let me (47% WR, WN8 of 838, 47k matches, boomer old fart) offer a sincere word of thanks, for calling for some restraint, if not civility, in chat. I’ve had many hours of great fun in the game. I think the aspect I have enjoyed the least is the incessant drivel clogging the chat channel. If nothing else, remaining players should realize that it’s like static on tactical comms that limit useful communication at a time when it’s most needed. They only want to focus on themselves, at the expense of the team. Thanks for the voice of reason. Best 🎉of the 🎉New Year🎉
Stock brain is an amazing phrase
I got my first ever 10 kill game in a stock hellcat, I was so happy all day. Recently I finished upgrading the UDES 14 5 and saw a stock one on my team in a battle, everybody was complaining to the player, I felt for the guy, the frustration of upgrading that tank was very fresh in my mind.
Why don't ppl use free exp to unlock modules anymore? I always unlock the best gun and turret (if it has one) on any tank before even playing it.
Yesterday some guy messaged me after the game to harass me for playing a 430 passively yet at the end of the game I had more damage blocked, done and spotted than he did. The guy then shit on me for not having a good wn8 despite the fact that the game exist for people to have fun while playing and that’s what I do. If you don’t have fun while playing a game then what’s the point in playing it? Edit: My 430 has a 60% win ratio after 50 battles despite my wn8 being lower and that’s because so don’t play for my statistics I play for my team and to have fun.
If you play for your team, why are you being harassed, I'm confused?
good message, keep at it.
been playing for 10 years, but not aware of being able to use experience to buy a tank...... other than on auctions, which Ive never figured out when or on what site they are held. Does WG announce this? do you have to bid at 2 in the morning?
As a F2P player, i got through the M103 grind very quickly, did not struggle at all, people did not even shoot me in the turret assuming they would not pen, lol.
"Shout it out to the gods" -- yes but Architects said that All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us...
Low-mid wr players:
“oop yeah that one was my fault”
“Yeah I’m just having fun”
(Most) high wr players:
“Oh the battle isn’t going my way lemme find someone to blame it all on rq”
Nothing like a painful grind like a stock arlv39
I recently had a teammate rage at me in exactly the same position on Himmelsdorf. "Report T95", he said as if I was playing so poorly as to be breaking the rules. I was, indeed disappointed with the result of the game.
Would you believe 6149 damage ISN'T an Ace?
Oh god that's beautiful...
Not surprised it isn't ace tbh, unless you got a lot of assistance too
M103 isn’t bad stock compared to others
Sorry what
you my hero bro cheer and happy new year
I always like to say at the start or games that I’m stock just so people are aware of the disadvantages im facing
One of my favorite lines for these raging dumb dumbs... "The dead don't speak."
stock m-103 is so much pain
What camo is QB using on his M103 here please?
WZ-111 1 G FT
Worst grind trying to get a gun that has 340 HEAT just to balance tier 8 Premium tanks ....
Stock brain is hilarious not gonna lie 😂😂
ty for the great video bro
