Thank you for your time and videos Odd. I’ve been going through a really rough time mentally recently, it’s been a downward slope for a while. My life isn’t where it should be at 28, I’ve had mental health issues for a decade, being on and off medication, therapy and counselling. I’m lucky that I have an on/off self employed job but I hate it and I’m terrible at it. Most days I wake up thinking that I wish I hadn’t and that I’m a joke/a burden to my family for being the way I am when there are people with worse situations, which makes things worse. Right now, the only thing that makes me feel a little less anxious are your videos. I know that you’ve had your fair share of mental health battles, and that you’ve been in a similar situation to myself, so thank you for putting your content out for us.

Bravo lad. Enjoy our likes, that’s sport spirit right there. Although I know it’s unfair that German tanks that are so much better than this are at lower BR but I’m also proud that I’m driving the true chad tanks and statistics show people playing this are truly chads. A round of applause for everyone playing against German 5.7, having less powerful machines but using skills and knowledge to win in the end. Also I edited this, notice how in the end the enemy team is so scared of you that they throw off all the possibilities to win. When the Tiger retreats when it got shot and the pumas are so afraid to even move and shrink to a corner, you know you are the king of this match. Bravo!

[@ardrek_]

Odd the serial Sherman killer... Brutal, insanely brutal. Superb positioning, precise targeting and so cool under pressure!

[@GhostWolf743]

The easy 8 definitely isn't the easiest sherman, but you can exploit it's br. It sits just below the jumbo 76 in br so many players will take a second to eyeball your tank before firing or even back off from the fight. It's not something to bank on, but it makes it more likely that your opponent will make a mistake; although it's real strength comes that it isn't a good tank for it's br so the player really needs to flex their map knowledge and skill (with a little luck) in order to really succeed in that tank. Boy does it feel good to wipe players out while in such a sad br vehicle though.

[@Guilherme-it6rc]

It definitely needs to sit in 5.3.

[@MistahFox]

The Sherman's greatest advantage comes from people underestimating it.

[@aaczm1]

The Sherman is a severely underrated tank. I feel like most people don't like it because it doesn't play like other tanks that revolve around high mobility, A really good gun, or thick armour. It's just an all-around decent tank that stomps on everything else if someone is in it and knows exactly how to use it. Edit: I thought I'd mention that you almost don't play it like you're in a tank. It almost feels like an aircraft, if that makes sense.

[@peterjensen9468]

I dislike how the panther is considered "comparable" to a sherman 76 when a panthers round can slice through the front plate of a sherman but a sherman has trouble with the mantlet and the front plate of a panther.

[@machinech183]

Crazy round, great work! Oh no my favorite thing in WT... when you fire, the round is clearly out the barrel, but goes ghost shell midflight because the enemy hits your breech. That always makes me incredibly happy.

[@vaughanharrop3902]

Playing with 240+ ping constantly has made me learn to avoid head-on engagements whenever possible, it's frustrating when you think you've shot somebody, but the server replay shows you actually died before you fired the shot.

[@Guilherme-it6rc]

It's always the same here for me. I'm in Australia, so the ping is horrid (usually above 300, 280 or so on good days) and I've learned to play in a flanking manner, even if that wasn't the tanks main design im playing, its simply the only chance I've got.

[@Charlie-fk4ly]

Easy Eight is the hardest Sherman to use. It's not as good as the other mediums at its br. But, The 76mm shell does decent post pen damage (I'm biased towards the 76), and the fact this Sherman squishy makes players 10 times more cautious when playing it(I think...). Whenever I play this Sherman, I'm usually a lot more focused on the battles, and I plan my routes a lot more. I absolutely love this tank, it's a great flank and spanker when spawned first, and really complements the M18 and the Jackson as a final back-up. Also, I abso-bloody-lutely love the stabilizer, I always manage to get the first shot off in a Mexican stand-off, it saved me many times.
