THE KV-1C WAS ALMOST INVINCIBLE - Why does no one play this now?

The KW 1 C 756 (r) in War Thunder used to be known simply as the KV-1C and it absolutely ruined battle rating 4.7! Eventually, once people stopped buying this tank, Gaijin moved it up to 5.0 and now I hardly ever see it.
Today, I played the KW-1C to figure out whether it's bad or people just assume it's not good anymore. Turns out... this thing is still just as awesome as it ever was! :)
Definitely one of the best tanks in the game still!

What "ruined" that tank was that there were no other 5.0 tanks so you either had to tag along 4.7 lineup with it or 5.3. Now that there is VK 3002M ingame at 5.0 I see them way more than before.

I agree. Playing 3.7 USSR was awful against this thing. The turret and most of the front is impenetrable without going for weak spots and/or using APCR. The best shot was to side shot this thing at a relatively flat angle. Granted, I was not as skilled of a player when I used to play 3.7 but I was glad it got moved up so I would not longer have to fight it.

@@cqpp The XM-1's are sub-par compared to the 9.0-9.7 premiums around it, if you think that fucking thing is "undertiered" in its current state you need to look again. It has 0 armor, no smoke launchers (pretty fucking important), its speed really isnt special compared to everything around it, and it is stuck with a round from 8.7 that it is expected to use up to 10.3. M735 is shit. The XM-1 compared to things around it is not that great. On the other hand the fucking TURMS, is most definitely undertiered, Gen 2 or 3 thermals (and on commander sight), covered in ERA that results in making things that SHOULD go through not go through because the engine clearly cant handle it, speed that is nearly just as good as everything else beyond a non-existent reverse gear, ammunition that LOL-pens MBTs at 10.0 and very easily takes care of things even higher than that, tons of smoke, an autoloader which means your reload is consistent and you dont have to worry about fires resetting it. Out of what you provided the only things that are ACTUALLY undertiered are the TURMS and maybe the IS-6 if thats still even relevant. The turms is 10.0-10.3 material and gaijin knows it, it will never go where it belongs though, plus it has the 11.0-material BMP-2M to back it up easily. Once the XM-1 gets M774 and the smoke launchers it has artificially not been given, then you can maybe start to consider it "undertiered"

"An even better line up" implies there even WAS a lineup before the panther prototype. There wasn't. This thing hung out completely by its lonesome in a br by itself. That's why it wasn't used much. You either uptiered everything else for a premium vehicle or you uptiered this tank to 5.3 where you already have panthers and tigers. Sure it made a really strong backup for them but is buying a premium vehicle worth it for something you're going to be spawning as your 4th or 5th vehicle?

Other than that for the longest time you’d have to either up BR it in a lineup with 5.3 vehicles, or bring an entire lineup of 4.7 tanks with it that may start to struggle.

You need to try out the Crusader III and Cromwell I, they're 3.0~ vehicles that perform at 5.0+; they're basically Pumas/Locusts on steroids. They can penetrate a Tiger 1 frontally, or a Tiger 2s turret, can redden most barrels with a single shot up to 8.0~, and are shoulder stabilised. Leopards 1s at 7.3 are incredibly easy to kill with it too, as their turrets are penetrable with the 6pdr whilst if they angle even slightly they can be penned from the hull. To deal with M48s, destroy their barrel and tracks -- then aim for the neck as you can penetrate her frontally there. A ton of other vehicles you can easily flank and hit from the sides. They're also immune to .50 cal, whilst the Cromwell is protected against some SPAAs and IFV guns. With some aim, you can frequently one shot IFVs and SPAAs; they're also incredibly fast and incredibly small, which you can use with excellent effect for flanking or ambushes. Because of your speed and size, you tend to encounter a lot of Leopards, IFVs, and other lightly armoured vehicles -- in other words, easy pickings and big targets.

This thing was such a menace and still is when it gets it's BR. Pro tip for people facing it: shoot the gun mantlet, it's only 50mm thick.

Very good tank. I am new to war thunder. I use this tank with VK30.02M and BR4.0 Panzer 4 in Deck. Even though the Pz4 only has a BR of 4.0 it looks like a good fit. Have to play carefully but it works out fine.

i think you saw why in the first game, did you not? T-34-85 spam. Same kind of reason why they moved that gun down to 3.7 with the PZ 4s, if you get a competent T-34-57 or 85 player, not really much you can do to win. Doesn't mean it isn't strong and will dominate a lot of other tanks, but that is the reason it isn't spammed. Especially now that you have that VK 30.02M which made it second out maybe. But you also have the Ostwind II at 5.0 and the 190 D-13 atm which is really nice, whereas a while ago, you didn't have much around it. Probably gets a lot more action these days than a month ago when you made this. You are a masterful shot, and that makes a lot of difference as well. Nice video, and good job showcasing how to use that gun. If you play it like a true heavy or get around the front of a IS-2 up close it can be pretty ugly. I still love it though.

I'd say what killed this tank was the line ups and what they added around the tank. This thing is heavy with a gun from a 3.3 tank (ik it's not the exact same one but still Pz IV F2) the tank has great armor but I rather be fast and with a better gun then slow with alot of armor. Like look at the VK3002 same BR but being played more. But I grinded out the VK with this tank so maybe I'm bias 😂

T14 armour is at least somewhat effective in a full downtier, and US doesn't exactly have any other competition for heavy tanks at that BR. KW1C is just worse than the Tiger at 5.3, and is literally the reason Gaijin added the VK at 5.0, because nobody wanted this premium anymore.

easily answered, no 5.0 lineup. Many ppl don't like using casemates, so you either bring 3.3/3.7 tanks with it, or you use it as a third or fourth spawn in 5.3.

Would it be possible to play more lineups, maybe spotlighting a vehicle with a few others to back it up? It’s getting real old seeing people leave after a single death, and I’m hoping you could be a good influence.
