Skill4ltu: This isn't a normal vehicle for you fellas. DezGamez: Ladies and gentlemen... What is that... AwesomeEpicGuys: OOOOAAAAHHH!!!!! DAMAGE!!!!!!!

[@CaptainGrief66]

Considering that the Caliban's 160mm cannon was supposed to be used as a tactical nuke launcher, yes, this is an artillery piece in disguise

[@LucarioNN]

What?

[@bryans6539]

@@LucarioNN small yield nukes could be launched from certain “tanks”. Not practical and never used, obviously.. was a Cold War thinking.

[@slst3phan]

I knew that this tank would be capable of delivering the type of memes that AEG viewers have come to expect. Nice vid and nice review.

[@AzelRavenWood]

Nice and Glorious Profile Picture OP!

[@FrantisekTomiska05]

Literally every single unicum content creator: "OMG, this tank saqs, it is unplayable!" AEG: "Allow us to introduce ourselves."

[@Wolvenworks]

IMO it’s actually very tricky to get right tho. It’s basically a KV2 with a second shot ready. Unfortunately that means that it’s kinda underwhelming and very unreliable most of the time due to the HE nerf and the lack of favorable RNG (the gun handling says you’re either a TD or a shotgun heavy)

[@steffent.6477]

Definitely a tank that makes 10000% more fun in a platoon. Allone it's often just frustrating.

[@nooblangpoo]

If you're playing alone, play it with AP.

[@cunniffe6161]

no mates brother ? in a nice statement. fuck loot boxes ... WAIT for cheaper bundle. ill message ya, EU games shit if your not laughing..

[@echo_9835]

This tank checks all the Wargaming meme-ium tank boxes. Absurd statistics? Check Toxic to fight? Check Frustrating to play? Check Vastly more effective premium round? Check Gimmick? Check Only available behind lootboxes or a marathon grind? Check Wargaming using the word "dynamic" in its marketing: Check Lol I love it and hate it

This Taliban tank has some real firepower

[@4kpingu]

yes

[@johnnymigouel7228]

Just wanted to thank you guys for the consistent content we've had this week. The quality was as good as any other of your videos but 3 videos in one week is alot of work so well done guys and ty for the hard work

[@german2726]

Agreed, thanks from me too!

[@pingdrop1354]

Imagine repairing your tracks the moment your ammoreck gets damaged.

[@DunkaDunka330]

Ammoracked and loader dead with stun was over 2 min reload.

[@user-tv8lf2ej3m]

Finally! I could literaly imagine the "OH!!" form Edvin before this video has released

[@AwesomeEpicGuys]

;)

[@StokBrod]

I was waiting for you guys to do a video about this tank!🔥

[@geogamerdato2045]

Bruh same

[@Kratatch]

I have not played it, i have not played against it but i have seen a lot of gameplay/reviews and i think you guys do the best tank reviews of all of them. Great work.

[@lethuliv5500]

Agree, it was almost frustrating watching Skill4ltu's having made his mind up on the tank before playing it playing it like a donkey with pure HE from 450+ meters just to enforice his initial views on it.

[@Kenajovski]

I find it pretty cool that this tank and the GSOR look similar

[@juanjosedelpinorivas7099]

It's pretty much the same tank, but one has a nice 105mm gun or so while this tank has the Conway big boom gun.

[@Kenajovski]

@@juanjosedelpinorivas7099 yeah

[@ghdoublewho7962]

I think they should make the intuition perk work properly into his tank. Like if you have 2 shells loaded, you have a quicker reload for both shells. With it's terrible reload, it would make the tank able to respond so much better to various situations

[@Firefocus-fz2we]

For me it is great machine. I prefer HE as it is much better for my targets which are, believe it or not, flanked tanks or medium tanks against which 180mm pen is usually enough to make swiss cheese out of. For the idea of KV-2 with 2 round auto-reee-loader 10/10

[@kol3158]

Thats the best way to play it

[@bumis5299]

The thing with this tank if you are playing alone you want to be sneaky. I play with HE as main ammo. And it does work you just have to know where enemy will push. Had several 5k damage games against tier 10. And there is nothing more satisfying as doing 1.7k in to an ass of a tank.

[@Orion-ob9ny]

I want this tank so bad, but didn't get any t8 prems from 25 boxes

[@betsbig9840]

somebody give this man some boxes

[@Orion-ob9ny]

I mean sure if you wanna send me some my ingame name is ervin06p

[@antitank99wotboi55]

I got 50 and I got the yoh. The most boring one next to the 122tm and i play wotb so the track thingy is nothing new

[@shamaii170]

I first played it seriously and it didn't go well... then I accepted that this tank is just a meme, and started right-clicking at long ranges and not taking anything seriously and this is when I started to get some results out of it....

[@johnm7804]

Its the same for me since the Tier 8 I mainly play is the type 59 and the borat I got super frustrated playing it until I accepted it as a meme tank. Then I got into a tier 6 game and proceeded to one shot 4 tanks consecutively without missing then the following game was a tier X game and bombed an AMX with a 1k HE shell from 400m💀💀💀

[@lynoluoch1891]

Just from encountering a Caliban with my King Tiger(C), had equipped improved hardening, spall liner, and gun rammer, the guy did 60 damage per shot on me, switched to AP and he bounced, and I proceeded to wreck him when I face hugged his tank, laughed so hard since I'm playing on a free to play account and can't even afford to buy premium tanks or the loot boxes at the moment. Now I can imagine him facing tier 9s and 10s lol.

[@alanwatts8239]

I mean, most people that have it know it's not a good tank, they are just in for the memes of it. Also surprising you bounced 300 pen AP, that was lucky.

[@lynoluoch1891]

@@alanwatts8239 Totally agree I was lucky, I actually froze when we bumped into each other, with the alpha damage on that thing, I knew I stood no chance, but when he bounced his AP shot plus the mediocre HE damage he dealt, I knew it was game over for him. Wouldn't want to face two of them though.

[@alanwatts8239]

@@lynoluoch1891 XD I once bounced a jagdpanzer on the UDES 03.

[@kirianvr]

This thing is both really fun and really frustrating, I got it in the lootboxes and so far I'm happy with it, not overpowered but mighty satisfying

[@AngryCanine]

I have the tank, and find it to be very troll for both the enemy, and the one playing it. I like to call it a micro deathstar since it can do similar damage, and it's British

[@boudrauxmnxsty6871]

[@Leturane]

Portable Deathstar!

It has deathstar tech.

[@Digby-Waddlebottom]

exactly why i love this tank to quote the great edvine20, 'its stupid and fun' lol

[@auscanplantsupport7943]

I think it's a good idea by WG to introduce a tank that is a fun meme tank, KV2 needed some company! Cheers fellas!

[@SpicySpiritual]

Yes Edvin when ppl see this tank they are terrified af. One of my first battles was on ensk, when i've met two leopards pta. One of them was heh friendly to me, cuz he saw me, drove close to me and just stared at me, theremore I'm fairplayer so I was looking at him as well and not shooting him. When he was moving backwards I've made a salute shot next to him, and he was like " WTF !" he stared at me, standing in shock and i was like, well let's show him the power of this tank, so i aimed at his side and holy jesus juicy 900 dmg. he was truly friendly cuz he haven't shot me at all, just looking at me. * The fact: If someone is not shooting me I won't shoot him, i raise my gun and dance in front of him. Sometimes they hit me sometimes we dance and they die from my allies. That moments are beautiful, when you can make friends with an enemy. Sometimes i even protect my friendly enemies from my team, bcuz I'm honorable

[@IvkeGamingHD]

Great review and happy holidays to you both! Can't wait for the stream of memes and damage!

Happy holidays!

[@Borntoschnitzel]

12:21 that map meme got me. Do more of this plez its worth pickles

[@Holykeg]

Yeah, i bought 75 boxes and got Yoh tank and Caliban. Yoh tank is just a tank, situations when you can use double track mechanics are rare, but Caliban is a real gem, it's not a good tank, but funny as hell!

[@nooblangpoo]

I got the calibe in my first (and only right now) 25 boxes and I'm having a blast with it. In a platoon of 2-3, you can reap tanks every 23 seconds and punish the frontlines hard, in solo, you just smack one person at a time with your second shell and keep them at bay with your other shell. If they push you, they'll be bound to get punished hard or outright killed. When reloading, I suggest you raise your gun since the oscillating turret hides the cupola weakspot quite well when raised. Also when firing HE, aim for the roofs of the heavy tanks, they punch right through easily if you hit. Also be careful of artys, one build that I have is dropping the aiming and mount a spall liner due to the tank having 35mm of armor in the roof, sides and rear, easily penetratable by t7 artys.

[@hittman1222]

I played the Caliban in Front Line last week and the HE never failed to deliver when it connected. It was hilariously fun to drep people for 800 HP.

[@juanjosedelpinorivas7099]

I can't believe WG actually did this but considering Dez showed us a few months ago this troll of a tank...I feared it could happen and yeap, it's here.

[@krampfzwerg3724]

500 games in Caliban ;) nice video

[@ziemowitcioek1413]

this tenk is EPIC, works on HE for me too and im having a lot of fun playing it

[@clarkclements7204]

You two ought to be proud of me. When I first saw saw the initial supertest parameters of this tank many months ago, the very first thing I thought was "I can't wait for epic platoons of justice in this tank!" Honestly, you two should make multiple platoons of justice in this tank alone. It is such a meme.

[@AwesomeEpicGuys]

We will probably play it more on stream :) and such highlights will probably also end up on KZbin too at some point :)

[@thenotoriouscow2063]

*The TALIBAN*: Big damage due explosion...

[@AwesomeEpicGuys]

..... ;)

[@jeacebreaker]

the fact that this tank has some weakness probably means that it will be buffed at some time as it could be better without break the game (accuracy, reload, shell velocity) great video as always ;)

[@freshwaterspaceman7194]

Caliban looks like a decent enough and surprisingly (no, really) well balanced tank. Two of them coordinating against you in a platoon throws that out of the window completely however and I can see this becoming a very popular tank for 'many memes' as a result.

[@aletir6111]

It is not balanced. It's the worst tier 8 tank hands down. Even a unicum can barely make this work, I can't imagine what kind of experience the average player is going to have. It's got his moments, it can be fun, sure, but it's mostly frustration and I can see this getting one of the lowest average dpg out of all tier 8 tanks.

[@freshwaterspaceman7194]

@@aletir6111 I disagree. It offers an interesting and different experience to most tech tree vehicles, which is a bonus and what, in a perfect world, beyond just being credit grinding machines, the premium tank experience should offer. It's not an overtuned Italian, French or Soviet medium and heavy either, thank goodness. Given that the vehicle trades a lot of capability for it's two tap potential It's fine. It cannot carry a game like a Progetto or Defender or whatever but then neither can a FV4005 a vehicle which trades all of it's armour, speed and gun handling for high alpha output. The Caliban has decent mobility, can take a hit and dish out meme worthy damage at the cost of being very vulnerable for an extended period of time. I see it being a popular platoon vehicle for those that want KV2 like gameplay at tier 8. For what it offers, it's pretty balanced all in all. (It would be a lot more dangerous and more fun to play had the HE changes not come into effect imo)

[@DunkaDunka330]

@@freshwaterspaceman7194 If HE worked like it used to, i would maybe agree with you. In its current stage this tank is pure RNG if you actually do anything or not. Hard pass from me.

[@henrikschunk5732]

No its most definetly not balanced. This tank is either stupidly overpowered, when you get the back of an enemy or a softly armored target and you manage to kill the entirety of even some tier 9 tanks in 3 seconds or frustratingly weak when all those things don't work out. This tank is a dice roll, but when the odds are in your favour, damn is it fun to meme around with

[@filozofxd5214]

The video is 21:37 long, you know how to make polish laugh.

[@SpicySpiritual]

Edvin you was in enemy team yesterday, but you weren't too good hehe, i got caliban in 5th box then yoch in 20th and like 7th from the last skoda t56

[@DunkaDunka330]

When i got Skoda i was very happy...then i tried to play with it. Somehow it feels like tank that needs to spam gold and consumables to do anything (and then you get tier 10 game and do shit anyway). Also this tank, its pure RNG, i dont see anything good in it. When i use HE i do shit dmg, when i use AP i bounce side of tanks. So again another hard pass. Atleast the 4Y and 122 are decent. The swedish Ikea box is something different tho, if you get into good hulldown position and have support of your team, nothing can touch you.

[@_rocketplays_]

I met one. Unloaded two AP rounds to the side of my T32 but I was left with 32 HP Needless to say, the Skoda T56 who was with me and I had fat grins on our faces

[@yoakefurasshu8351]

I personally like to spam HE in this tank. And for some reason it works and oh boy is it satisfying when you hit something. Really fun tank to play.

[@IVIICHAELxx]

This tank stimulates what its like for me playing from California all the way to Chicago 2,000 miles away. Only on the NA server keeping it real.

[@bolesneek]

Lovely and funny review of tanky tank that has potential to annoy owner as much as target. I predict many keyboards smashed over this vehicle since in m experience WoT community is not group of very patient people. Ty again!!

[@vladandrei8702]

Oooooo incredible meme of tire 8 tankkkkk and it's BAIST

[@Zuub470]

You have the armor to brawl, I use the HE and get in close, 180 pen is A LOT for HE, many teir 8 premiums have around 180 on their standard.

[@craigjewel4539]

Poor Zwhatsh don't let Edvin tell you what to do.

[@adriaanvanvuuren1347]

So far I think the Caliban looks like a fun tank to fool around with. Much like with a KV-2. I personally won't to get the tank, whether it be from the loot boxes or in the shop later on, because I enjoy playing the KV-2 as well. So I think I might enjoy this one as well. As for what I think about it, I don't think the tank is overpowered or anything like that. RNG will always screw it around, just like with the KV-2 or even the Death Stars. So for me I don't have an issue with it being in the game. Thank you for the video though. It was fun watching those shots he he. Keep up the good work you two.
