Mäuschen: The Unbuilt Behemoth of German Armor! | World of Tanks

[@Guamurphy1952]

I think playing the Mauschen brings out the tourist in you.

[@bugbuster8598]

7:32 yes, in polish it's "niedźwiedzia przysługa"!

[@derandere4965]

In Germany way say „jemandem einen Bärendienst erweisen“ - to bestow a „bear service“ unto someone - which seems to be literally the same expression.

[@Tobias042]

Yes, in german language we have a word for this: „Verschlimmbessern“ which is merging „Verschlimmern“ (worsening) and „Verbessern“ (improving). Roughly you could translate it to „worseproving“ (when you merge „worsening“ and „improving“) although that word doesn’t exist in english - but you‘ll get the idea what I mean

[@strykerjones8842]

I enjoy hearing Skill’s English improve especially knowing he is self taught. That being said I liked the old way he pronounced “involved” more than the way he correctly says it now. English is a tough language, so much of it makes no sense and the “rules” aren’t exactly absolute.

[@schniedeldie]

I like your attitude pointing to the essentials even if you are not winning every game

[@zmijoguz]

it's "bear's favor" in Serbian too

[@jensmagnusson489]

Bearfavour, we have exactly the same saying in swedish. And I thought it was a swedish saying, you learn me so much Skill

[@abdallahsula5180]

In Arabic they say: "ديكحلهه عماهه" "Tried to apply mascara to her eyes, ended up blinding her"

[@amineharimech3753]

thats aint pure arabic thats your native arabic

[@emperoraugustus4047]

it doesnt matter what angle you choose or what tier you meet, everyone just aims for area around your gun and penetrate with 100% garantee

[@jariheimoluoto4959]

I think the vk100.01p is better and the high point in the techtree and the only super heavy that really works.

[@lukababilodze4283]

I agree with you

[@lordganimer883]

Nah, while the VK really is a great tank, the Maus at tier 10 is actually insanely good. Angling your armor usually makes enemies bounce off you, even with 340 HEAT, and then you also have a massive amount of HP to trade and a pretty nice gun that usually doesn't struggle to pen its shots. The Maus is a really underrated tank, and in my opinion one of the better tier 10 heavies currently

[@elpresidente7569]

@@lordganimer883 maus was one of the best tier 10 heavies until wargaming made gold ammo purchasable with silver and now everyone can penetrate the maus without bigger issues into the front of the turret or the lower plate

[@lordganimer883]

@@elpresidente7569 Everybody who thinks that has either never played the Maus themself or is just a bad player who can't make the Maus work. What's your DPG on the Maus if I may ask?

[@elpresidente7569]

@@lordganimer883 3.4k damage per game. Ive been playing wot since 2016, i know how the game works, and i understand weakspots. The maus is a big fat thing to farm on every map that isnt a city, and even then i can deal with simply by loading gold and firing into the 280mm~ if armor on the front of the turret. I can understand why you are meatriding maus so hard, it is not a bad tank, it is just simply outdated in the age of everyone having access to gold ammunition, where armor means basically nothing which is why the game is in such a poor state.

[@0ia]

In the first game, Skill was saying “I do not feel bad about losing, we did well, and that is what is happening” meanwhile in the chat Kanjpz was complaining on the team’s fault haha I think I like Skill’s philosophy more than Mr. Kanjpz ;) I need to save audio clip of 25:10, very technical explanation!

[@nikospiaxas3333]

SKIIIIIIILLLLL!!!!!! When I was playing with this tank I was crying in the corner man!

[@cubax599]

Omg, I was the afk Progetto 66 in the first game. Cruelly, VM internet let me re connect just after Skill got a 'Cobra in the ass' 🤣 I raise the pp in post mortem Skill, thanks for your work sir.

[@danielmatheis9600]

Spell it Mäus-chen ^^ a tiny Mouse^^

[@okumichi_shigeru]

for english speakers i would say the sound of "äu" is spelled like the "oy"- sound in english, i.ex. boy. the next is the "sch" has two different cases of pronounciation. the most ist like the "sh" like fish, but in this case, the s comes from "maus" (mouse), so the last silliby is "chen", which is used for minimization of the word in front (in this case: maus) - it has no corresponding sound in english, as far as i know, but it es mostly used as a very soft, nearly silient "sh" sound. in elementary scholl i had learned to make en "s"-sound and put my tounge under the teeth-line an then try to make an "s". phonetic it would be ['mɔɪ̯sçən] (mois-chen). literal translated, it would be mini-mouse. but to be honest - baboon-pronunciation the best pronunciation :)

[@alexanderstoyanov7464]

Bear favour is more of a Slav saying I think, western nations don't have such an expression but they have other words, phrases with that meaning

[@juanjodpr]

The Moisten in action 🤌

[@christiankonig2757]

German saying for trying to make something better while making it worse is "Verschlimmbessern" and I think that's beautiful.

[@garyhardison9265]

After tier 8 I get owned in this line

[@paoloraco2706]

I'm trying to do the mission where you have to get "bombproof" and it's absolutely difficult.. because the enemies.. on the second shot they always go gold and eventually they pierce you as if you were butter.. the armor is absolutely useless ..without corners with a mega weak spot on the front and one on the turret it is extremely difficult to bounce enough...

[@spiliwiliag4576]

who told him that "involved" is spoken without "E"? sounds unusual.

[@Kalenderz35]

27:01 Centurion Action S*it lol. Why i always laugh at that xD

[@jeffhillstead3302]

Welcome to German heavy tank line.. I get them finished and stop..😮 Autoloader food..Oh and the most accurate guns..

[@heheheha6942]

The RNG in this video made almost smash my keyboard

[@Kristiyan-Angelov]

In Bulgaria there is the same thing with the bear.

[@Skandalos]

Hehe, same here in Germany. "Bärendienst" (bear service). And I have no clue where its coming from, or whats the logic behind it.

[@janolsvig4800]

Eeeyyy.. thanks for the quick remake of the tank!, much love from Greenland!

[@Ven_RS]

The first enemy team was so bad and skill's team lost badly, incredible performance

[@aaa3ification]

Bear favor (медвеђа услуга) - we have the same saying in Serbia 😀

[@AlbertAproyan]

What the hell was that first team? Do they have keyboards?

[@martinwinther6013]

IM READY!! edit; 1st game. 1k dmg pr min, and team still throw.. sadface 2nd game. Not a throw. But yea. Also not the peak of your gaming career 3rd game. lets face it. You tried an alternative route and you didnt get the best paper-stats. But you tied down the arty and had at times 3 guns pointing your direction, bounching left and right. It didnt look so good on the stats, but it allowed your team to move in and get the victory secured. 4th game.. Think I had a brainfart , woke up and saw Skill running in like a lighttank and the game was over shortly after Yes. A bearfavor is when you try to do something good, but it turns out to come back and bite you in the rear. HOWEVER: The recent years have been a bit different. some start to call a "bearfavor" for doing someone a really big favor, ie a goodfavor. But the historic meaning for a bearfavor is when your actions that was intended to be good boomarangs back and hit you in the face

[@EdgardBermudez]

This is a hidden Gem!!! Great tank!!!

[@durachoks]

idk, I kinda dont get it, we pick superheavy, spawn on a city map, and instead of going brawling we spend half game camping corner, and there a bunch of people like this. And this is not meant as criticism or negativity, im just wondering why people do that...

[@scottmorse1798]

very entertaining i must say, watchin skill get his but kicked and makin it out like its all according to plan, yes yes verty good

[@nikolaystoyanov4878]

i am the t55a that danced in the 3rd game ... as soon as i saw that it is u i started dancing and dicede to stay in the line of fire and die... sry for 2 shots saw that is u 2 late

It is pronounced "mojz-hen" (long o, short e).

[@alwayslearning8365]

The garbage match maker in the game can make this game frustrating and depressing. When the match maker rigs game after game with unbalanced skill levels on the teams it makes this game not worth playing. The game is not worth playing until WoT fixes the match maker.

[@beasalesman]

skill, you know that is not only 15 against 15 is 15 against 15 and WG that decide from start what team will win.. in 5 minutes like a WOT Blitz

WOW Skill, you're pretty bad in Mauschen.

4th day asking for type 61

[@durachoks]

not worth it, get Maus, best superheavy

[@alanwatts8239]

"It's not worth it to live your childhood, go straight to adulthood"

[@DovahFett]

That's a pretty low bar. None of the superheavys are particularly good. The VK 100.01 (P) is probably the best one, tier for tier.

[@juanjodpr]

VK100.01 is AWESOME for bouncing damage missions

[@durachoks]

@@alanwatts8239 I meant in this game very often tier 9 is so good that tier 10 is not worth it, in this case Maus is a lot better

[@durachoks]

@@DovahFett good for what? For farming tomatoes, yeah they all are bad. For winning games, Maus will be one of the best. Especially for average player.

[@GaryYorke-lt7bo]

This game is a total rip off it’s only aim is to take money from you asap , I like skill but he makes money from all you plebs thinking hey I can do this ….. when you’ve wasted your money and work out you will loose 70-80 % of the games you play it may sink in …… you have been warned this game is a rip off … PLAYER BE WARNED ,

oof someone missed a fully aimed shot

cmon skill even you can't sell mauschen as a good tank
