Skill is the only wot player I know who can lose where almost HALF of his team did ZERO damage and he was still excited about having a good game :) Hats off to you, Baboon King! Hats off to an Ace Wanker in a losing game, too :)

[@Hunterend07]

Well I'd rather lose and have a good game than winning 15-0 and not doing anything

think i can do that too but i loose almost all games. haha so getti8ng a ram kill or getting en ebr makes me smile mo matter the out come of the game

[@brag0001]

That's the difference between winner and loser mentality ... A winner is analysing what he himself could do better in the next game. A loser turns around and looks for someone to blame ... That's why losers are flaming all the time having a bad day. To be a winner one needs a positive mindset first and take responsibility. I don't know a single super unicum running around blaming his team all day ...

[@MrKillswitch88]

This is one of those old classics before the camo nerfs, people used to love it back in the day as the maps often had more bush cover coupled with exceptional gun depression it was a deadly foe indeed.

[@Heckinwhatonearth]

I still love mine. Even play it on ridges, if I have to, aggressively. Only downside is being one shot by arty lol

[@davidp.3220]

Skill’s positive attitude when on a bad team or when missing shots truely encourages me to remember to not get so angry when on a losing streak and that it’s a game where fun is to be had. Thanks Skill for always showing players how to not stress out over WOT.

[@valeudetanderawotreplays]

I started playing again a few months ago - after being away from the game since 2013 - and out of need to learn about the new tanks, I've been watching the main youtubers - and you are the best of them, where we can learn a lot. Congratulations for the channel and your work. Greetings from Brazil

[@gustavosousa2897]

2:18 "YOU CAN WORK WITH THIS TANK AS A VACUUM CLEANER" Worth watch just for this :)

[@csucskos]

I'd add that this tank has awesome viewrange (400 base) and quite good camo too, so it's overall a good sniper. But since it has 0 armor it can be twoshotted with HE and it does not feel unfair to play against it. Best tank to do the 5x your HP TD mission with.

[@twentygauge8351]

I enjoy your channels skill, I appreciate your good attitude. Keep on doing your thing.

[@l0ranga]

First game was so exiting! Didn’t thought that low tier games would be this much fun to watch, thank you Skill!

[@gordonmcinnes8328]

One thing you don't mentions Skill, is the 400m base view range. This gives you the ability to have a huge (500+m) view range with a good crew and binocs and this allows you to get a lot of spotting damage too. Alternatively you can mount optics or even run food with a really good crew.

[@Wend0lZe]

love when i see skill have this much fun

[@divisiona3974]

As many here probably, I don’t play anymore, but I still enjoy your videos. Excellent!

[@dseals81]

The moment after the first game where skill realizes the dicker max has low ammo capacity similar to the St.Emil was great.

[@alainsterckx9154]

yeah, that line doesn't carry much ammo, St. Emil only has 14... can't blind shoot if you need to carry

[@freddyng1843]

Skeeeeilllllllllll! Finally you feature the Dicker Max! I have been silently waiting for it so thank you! Will you also be featuring the VK 45.03? I have been requesting for it last year and I have given up... The Dicker Max is one of those good 'o tanks like the SU-122-44 where not many people play it nowadays. I bought it last year for 30% gold discount and I love it. The only problem I have with this tank is, it tends to low roll its damage and it has 26 shells only. And yes you really need to be patient with this tank because it simply doesn't have the mobility or armour like the SU-122-44. City maps are a bane for this tank mostly, but open maps... woohoo it's wonderful base view range is solid 10/10 bananas for a Tier 6.

[@BlueLineofthesky]

I love my Dicker Max. Very good to play ridges. Great gun. You do do OK in high tier games. Low ammo is the issue. BUT Sturer Emil also have low ammo and same gun elevation issues. DM is just a mini Sturer Emil. It is good for making credits at low tiers.

[@Bigbacon]

used to love the Dicker Max....but it is been so left in the dust in the current game.

[@Straswa]

Great vid Skill, thanks for making that handy Index. Super useful.

[@unbekannternr.1353]

I had it for 10 rental games and was feeding the crew enough books to put them on a same tier medium afterwards, keep those TDs away from me they're just playing another game.

[@arcticfox4202]

The Dicke Max was my first premium tank years and years ago and I still like it. Skill showed the advantages of this tank perfectly.

[@gergobohanek3269]

same here

[@lukasd75]

It is not like 3000K average, although 0% win ratio... It goes together with TDs, more games you are loosing, better chance to do dmg you have 😁 btw, 300 alpha dmg they said.. mostly I saw rolls in range 220-289, especially in first replay 😁 Thank you, Skill.

[@Jay121]

Very hidden gem. Got my first Radley Walters medal from a massive carry with this TD.

[@noobwotplayer1644]

Page looks nice. Thank You Skill, some nice info

[@CarlosRodriguez-dd4sb]

I LOVE this tank!! Your first battle was incredible Skill!! Yes bad amt of ammo - I don't even carry HE at all. Damage for HE is not that good vs regular ammo and pen is iffy. 15 Deg gun depression allows you to be more aggressive than some others. God help you if arty or HE hits you.

[@stevepirie8130]

I set mine up for vision and could out scout the lights 🤩. Was first tank I got Kolobanovs but the enemy were kind and came at me one at a time lol.

[@Balc0ra]

Pre nerf camo and TD view range. It's not a bad map control tank tbh in the right spots even in todays speed meta.

[@Suichimo]

1:29 "Obviously good gun depression" and even THAT is an understatement when it comes to the gun depression on this tank. I remember when the Dickermax came out because I was so happy to have a new German premium TD, it was the first one iirc. At the time, it was an uptiered SU-85 with better gun handling and crazy depression. I love this little td.

[@perludus]

I have a tendency to compare the Dicker Max with the Nashorn. However the Dicker Max has fantastic gun depression, which is what really makes it shine. The downside however is the ammo capacity is really low.

[@joe125ful]

And mobility*

[@singncarpenter6270]

Thanks for highlighting the lower tier and tech tree tanks Skill.

[@stumpythedwarf8712]

DM has always had a low ammo count. Big shells take up lots of room.

its a good tank! but u have to know, how to play Tds like this one! you cant push and u cant go reverse fast enough to get cover! if u notice that u can have good battles! but u need spots!

[@lucidnonsense942]

Using binocs or optics plus vents let's you do some amazing work on open maps, in this tank. Its view range in excellent, so building into it is totally worthwhile.

[@maniacpanic666]

You cant use vents. Its an open tank.

[@MrBlacksHawk]

You got some moves in that first battle ! RROOOUUUUUHHHHH

[@SirDaffyD]

I have this td, and actually really enjoy playing it. But my games go like yours Skill. My wr in it is only around 43% in it, so it doesn't get much of a run these days.

[@Zermu]

if you had not low rolled almost every shot in that first game it could have been a victory. By my calculations your average damage per shot which did not kill the enemy was only 288,26.

[@hax0rz36]

Just did TD-15 for StuG IV in this tank. Thank you!

[@andrijabrankovic1436]

Dicker Max, good TD that trained a lot of my crews 😉

[@bassegoder]

This is a good tank for nowadays. First moment of the battle look for a corridor to snipe, and wait until game is broken. If you win, well is ok. But if you lose, you are most sure going to be one of the last tanks and you can farm damage. Skieeeel hellcat day 40

Current patch Wotreplays, best score damage wise on Dicker - 3.7K. Yes... Best wisher for Skill

[@Ronis88]

My first ammorack was with dicekermax. Great tank 400m viewrange 300alfa in tier 6. :)

[@nasmi1409]

Over 2k games on that td, still i like play that one, rammer, quicker aiming and binocle that what i use.

[@crumbman]

First of all congrats on the first game that kind of score on tier 5 is what I would be happy to get at tier 10. Maybe two things worth noting about this tank is the view range of 400m meaning you can get to the cap without using optics on this. The other thing is that the gun is mounted very close to the highest point of the tank so when you're sitting on a hill like at 15:49 you can shot the enemies cupola without them being able to hit you back. Unfortunately it is very easy to get up the hill too much and expose yourself like it happened to Skill here. Day 21 of asking for a video with the Jagdpanzer IV.

[@Hamkac3466]

My DickerMax miss fully aimed shot to stationary tank. Skill... 9/10 gun handling.

[@BraaapoholicBob]

Wow...you were great at the end in game 1...they were afraid! LOL!

[@adolfusknall3341]

You praised the gun handling so much... I did not remember it to be any good. And after I played some matches I have to say that you were really lucky with your shots. Especially these cupola shots were cheeky. Could be your dad as well? For me the gun of the Max hits all over the place and is really not great at medium to long range. One really nice feature is the view range, because it kept its 400m when the global TD nerf happened.

[@joe125ful]

Dicker: 26 X 300Dmg 42 Km top speeed. 16.87 Base camo. Emil:15 X 490 25Km top speed. 11.23 Base camo. Also Emil can see 9 tiers like Type 4,OBJ something,Tortoise,50TP...etc. With 15 ammo when you lets say 3-4 times no pen/bounce.

[@damaco78]

Dickermax is the king of the low roles

[@gytispranskunas4984]

I noticed that the "average damage" is not really average. Almost all skill shots was way lower than 300. Is there some hidden RNG stats of damage ? I'm not imagining things here. Some tanks just rolls way lower, when other rolls way higher.

[@tvideo1189]

Wargaming manipulates that in software. There are a LOT of "hidden" stats in this game.

Hi skill, I would recommend to do check if you have recently covered the newcomers to bondstore. T-34-3 Black dog, Primo Victoria naked (Strv 81) and Tiger 131. I don't really agree with your rating of T-34-3… It's epic from my perspective. Great alpha, good Armor, decent mobility, good penetration considering pref MM and it's good looking too. I have 3 Moe on it and I had multiple battles with 5k DMG and more. I might be biased but please give it a chance. I run stabs, rammer and GLD. Thanks for considering my request. P.S. here are some 🍌🍌🍌🍌 to bribe you

[@freddyng1843]

Well every player has their own perspective depending on their playstyle. I think the problem with the T-34-3 is it's reload time and poor standard penetration (196mm unless you are a constant gold spammer). Otherwise overall it is a good tank.

[@onemorebox148]

@@freddyng1843 196mm for medium is actually fine, the main problem with T-34-3 is that the shell velocity is so low you always have to stay in close range which destroy the tank's potential to be better
