I knew the VK was going to cost the team that battle. Honourable mention to the O-I in the HEAVIEST tank in the match being too scared to use his bulk for anything useful.

[@davidzarecky4078]

The heaviest tank in the game with the largest HP pool hiding behind a rock and bully-shooting team mates in an apparent indignation that they are not charging ahead into enemy lines. You can't make this up. It's time for ChatGPT to learn WOT and replace these human ape muppets for a better in-game experience (minus wanton curses and blaming one another in chat).

[@Poglavnit_Pferdefuhrer]

I still remember that one epic Klaus video where the bot tricked the enemy arty into spamming the wrong side of The cap circles because he ran over a house and a bunch of trees, but then reversed to the very end of the cap and sat there, then won😂😂😂😂😂

[@ulvsbane]

I as a Swede would love to take credit for Mannerheim, but he was a Swedish speaking Finn. Not Swedish. Finland got two offical languages - Finnish and Swedish. Unlike Norway that got two official languages - Norwegian and Norwegian :p

@BohemianEagle Finally got featured, thanks Jingles, now I'm heading back down the saltmines to get another game for "The Game Of Throws" cause that's pretty much what my teams excel at heheh... I'm predominantly an artillery player so this was definitely one of those "the shoe is on the other foot now, let's play mindgames" runs.

I cant wait to see what adventures await Dave in season 3. Maybe he will finally confess to the heroine.

[@lMarcusl]

[@Malhadras]

Actually Jingles.. Mannerheim was a FINNISH. He was Swedish speaking (Finland is a dual language country with history of being part of Sweden), but was born in Finland (although at the time Finland was part of Russia (Grand Duchy)... Btw - he has a very interesting history (recommend reading it) - He was born in Finland, Spoke Swedish, served in the Russian military (all the way up to Lt. Gen in Cavalry), led the "whites" in Finnish independence war, led the Finns during Winter and Continuation war (as Marshal), became the President of Finland in the end of the war and eventually died in Switzerland... and that's just the short sum of it. He also made a long expedition across Asia (while in Russian military) and he receieved numerous medals and honors in different countries, including the GBE... I'm Finnish, and biased of course, but I still highly recommend on reading of this man, he led a truly extraordinary life.

[@Roshmeck]

Actually Finuc.. The reason for Mannerheim being considered Swedish up until the independence of Finland is due to the Mannerheim family being a Swedish noble. So he was swedish and became finnish. But as you say, he was born in Finland when it was part of Russia. Well, since I'm half-fin I may be a tad biased towards Sweden, but one must keep in mind the family lines and such. For example, the only reason the Swedish king is considered swedish is only since he is actually the king of Sweden, even though he is from french noble descent. Noble family trees are such fun times. :)

[@PawlysBartys]

teammates like that VK are the exact reason I switched to solo games

[@nephandi2316]

Achtually Jingles, since there were 14 seconds left at the end and they were 2 in the cap circle, that means there were 28 points remaining, so the VK didn't need to arrive 7 second earlier, but a full 28 seconds. on that note, I'm heading back to the salt mines.

[@JohnSmith-oh9ux]

Actually 14s Time out with 28 more points needed / 14s needed. 1player -> 1s in cap = 1 point, 2 players in cap = 2points /s. They needed 28 more points, 14 points each = 14s each. If VK went for cap when asked by Auxilar with 55s left on the clock there was high chance of win by capping.

Great movie Jingles but FYI killed tanks don't provide concealment - killed tank can only create cover from shells but in terms of concealment they are like see-through. Hope that makes sense :)

Also when a tank isn't spotted arty won't be able to tell if they did critical damage.

"the German VK30.01H has always been a medium tank" oh Jingles, never change. It was a heavy tank for years, the next up the tree from the D.W.2 before they revised the tree about 3 years ago. Also worth noting the VK30.01H has arguably the best T5 gun in the game.

Well, Jingles, you are right about the VK 3001(H)'s speed, it IS terribly slow, but: The gun of this thing (it former was called 7cm konisch, i dont know what its renamed now) is an absolute beast! You have 221pen with 0,29 accurravy and decent view range and camo values on tier FIVE! 😅 Once you got used to its slow top speed, its a fun thing to play, i three marked it in 78 matches, if i remember correctly 😊

OMG, what an incredibly frustrating game to watch. 🤦‍♂ What a start to the season.

[@leeroyjenkins422]

I'd like someone (not me) to make a series of videos called "Hero or Heartbreak". It would be similar to this series of 'Throws'. People could weigh in at the beginning of the video if it's going to be a 'Hero' or 'Heartbreak'. For example, if a single tank (doesn't have to be main/highlighted tank) does an exceptional job and almost single handedly wins the game he would be a 'Hero'. If the game looks like it's going to be won but ultimately ends up a loss due to exceptional circumstances it would be a "Heartbreak'. The video I just watched would be a 'Heartbreak'. With that being said, I'll continue watching Game of Throws. Love the videos. Tks!!

Idk what jingles is on about, the 30.01h is amazing in the right hands and does have some armor

[@henryvaneyk3769]

I think Jingles has confused himself with the changes that was done to the VK 30.01 P, which used to be a great medium tank with speed and a great alpha, and sadly got changed to a slow heavy without updating that MT armour.

[@sarki4816]

@henryvaneyk3769 yeah it seems like it, the 30 01h doesn't have that great of speed; it's like the speed of the faster American heavies at best

[@ronaldthompson4989]

Jingles, vk3001h has the stugs gun in a rotating turret with 80mm mantlet. Hardly a frontline heavy, especially since engine nerf, but very nice fire support platform

[@Toodleypops]

this was really two games of throws in one. My goodness

[@dylanbailey2812]

The VK 30.01H may not be great, but if I recall, its top gun has over 200mm of gold pen, so there's that at least

[@asamyers4572]

Goes to show that even blaring sounds and a red highlighter over the battle timer will be easily ignored by the incompetent. With teammates like that, who needs enemies.

[@WTCheatShaming]

I don’t even play or will ever play WoT but enjoy your content as always!

[@subtlewhatssubtle]

Technically the T24 couldn't have capitalized on the disable against the T67, as its per-shot reload is terrible for a 75mm gun at tier V, so hanging around for the 6ish seconds required for a second shot (and he'd have needed at least 2 shots to do it, so a minimum of 12 seconds) is enough time to get spotted and die surprisingly quickly.

[@IslanderJerYT]

Hey Jingles, just fyi, dead tanks are invisible as far as view range and spotting are concerned, dead tanks are invisible and don't provide concealment. They do, as you say provide cover though.

[@douglashawley9850]

surprised he didnt drive into the cap circle on his way to the other corner of the map tbh.

[@victormiranda9163]

I love the vid and commentary. it was a very rare game that did not go to finish much the same. shot by teammate? check. blasted by arty? check. back of the map campers? check a win pissed away by galloping stupidity? check. only reason I got wins? the the OTHER team had the stronger stupid. fun to watch tanks but I can't imagine I'll play Wot again...

Jingles Mannerheim was a Finland Swede, he was still Finnish but spoke swedish as his mothers tongue like a large portion of Finns do

[@death4two]

Jingles upload always best time of the week

[@pokejaki1497]

Actually Jingles! Mannerheim did speak Swedish as his native language yes, but he was a true Finn. Still a lot of people in Finland speak Swedish as their native language due to being under Sweden's reign for centuries and Swedish is still one of two Finland's official languages.

[@johnmccall4528]

I had a game much like this one on the same map in my KV 2 the other day. Both teams pushed and we gained the upper hand but started falling in the north and south as we were moving into the enemy base. Meanwhile there were several tanks, including a few mediums camped at the back with nothing to shoot at, that refused to move up and support us. The battle ended in a draw because the remainder of both teams, camping the back of the map kept waiting for the other to put on their man pants and move up which of course never happened. Talk about frustrating.

2:56 VK 30.01 H has a very good gun for it's tier, 157 standard penetration and 0.33 base accuracy, maybe when it was a heavy it didn't have that gun, but now it does, and it's actually good, you can penetrate any tier 5-6 tank with standard frontally, apart from the O-I, and the premium penetration is 227mm which is insane and pretty unnecessary for a tier 5 medium

[@astrofan8775]

It had that gun as a Heavy. Maybe when it originally was a fast medium it didn't have the gun, and Jingles never updated it in his memory from that ancient state.

[@burnstick1380]

Well honestly the VK didn't play that bad. He positioned himself perfectly to capitalize on the enemies pushing the base. He (and the OI Exp.) was the reason the enemies couldn't push over the the plateau because they would have just shot them to pieces. They weren't low health they had quite a lot of HP. Auxilar didn't get that much assist because the OI exp. spotted them too, so he was actually kinda useless. Also at the end it's very questionable whether the VK could have made it in time. At 14:25 he was probably the closest to the cap with ~1 min left of the game. It would prob take him 20-30s to get there which would just maybe win the battle by cap. So it was a very close decision. Furthermore he's a Tier 5, he could have played the game for only a few hours.

[@fokionleile7662]

nope if he straight lined at that point without turning they'd win.

[@burnstick1380]

@@fokionleile7662 Let's say he took 20s to get there. He would have arrived with 40s left and a remaining single tank cap time of 1m 10s which would with 2 tanks be enough. Let's say he took 30ss to get there. He would have arrived with 30s left and remaining singel tank cap time of 1m which would would have just about been enough. But again for a beginner it's not the easiest decision and considering how well he played before thats excusable.

I've just answered almost the same (I've didn't looked for anyone else here on the comments, 'till now), but there's one thing: the VK player has 43k battles. He's not a newbie. He's just an average Joe. But definitively he's not the one to blame about the result of this game. I'll not put all my coins over the O-I to blame, too. Consider if both enemy arties didn't come closer and stayed at the end of the map, and if the enemy Skoda spotted for them? It would be a different result, too. I should cheer the allied T67 that made a brave scout run at the end. That resulted on the AMX Elc bis, Grille and leFH to be killed, and those things brought a chance of winning, but... think before that?

[@burnstick1380]

@ yeah maybe the T67 should have actually tried to hunt down the skoda since he was the only one fast enough to catch him. But agree with you

[@jeffthebaptist3602]

More importantly if the Skoda was still up on that perch (or in any position to defend the cap), he could have easily reset. Then it would still be a Draw. The only way they were going to assuredly win was to kill the Skoda.

[@Gargsco]

Well, about the Vk. 30.01 H, it may have the speed of what is basically a superheavy and the armor of a Tier 4 light, but the pen on the gun is better than what a good chunk of the tds have at that tier.

[@BS25999]

If they let the enemy advance at the beginning of the battle - the OI would dominate the fight, It's a good position because the OI will be impenetrable at that range but can kill everything.

[@jgold2813]

if rng lets the oi hit the and pin theres always that in this skill based game BURP did i say skill based ?

[@ThelvaldCam]

I have had so many losses/draws simply because someone has 2 brain cells fighting for 10th place and not capping or staying with your team. I can understand the oi staying at base Incase the last guy managed to travel across the entire map to cap, but that vk, just wow

Hello Jingles. Finn here. Mannerheim was Finnish, not Swedish, as others have pointed out already. I understand why this is an easy confusion, he spoke multiple languages at native level, actually altering between them on daily basis at home (monday Russian, tuesday Swedish, Wednesday German...). This is also a perfect opportunity to use the meme "You speak English because it is the only language you know. I speak English because it is the only language YOU know. We are not the same". Also as a Finn, I have no idea where these magnificent rock and mountain formations are in the Karelian Isthmus where the Mannerheim Line was located. Must be very well hidden among the flat forest and lake scenery.
