Seeing the tier 8 tech tree tanks having low winrates because of all the overpowered premium tanks is pretty sad. Just goes to show, spend money and be more competitive.

[@jasoncain3609]

preach on. best comment

[@balazsfazakas3368]

While there's a lot of truth to that, keep in mind that tech tree tanks have stock grinds, 75% crews unless you pay and are sometimes played by newish players, while people generally put in significant time into the game before they spend money on it and you can use your 100% crews from other tanks in the premiums

Personal take on the SPG being highest win rate of standard tier 8's: All tier 8's end up in tier 10 matches constantly, an SPG is the least affected by this

[@jamesdow211]

Yeah there are a lot of HE pennable tanks in 10's

[@Tigero7539]

But there is an equal amount of Tier 8s and artilleries on each team, so it balances out. What doesn't balance out is the Premium Tier 8s being simply better, so any game where one team has more Premiums and wins against the team with more tech tree tanks, it pushes the Premium win rates up and the tech tree down.

[@juanzulu1318]

This is the moment when u realize that the old game concept of making Premium tanks somewhat underpowered BY INTENTION in comparison to their tech tree peers was actually a very good idea. Nowadays we see the consequences of not following this concept any longer.

[@GregorianMG]

When elite tank is superior than premium tank, that's a good one because with premium, even if you lose you could still gain some silver while elite tank have an advantage for winning battle. Trade win for silver.

[@thethrongler3070]

Honestly think the real problem isnt even that the tech tree tanks suck as there are many good and fun tier 8 tech tree tanks but the real problem are all the stock grinds. stuff like a stock tiger 2 sucks but the tiger 2 itself is 1 of the best tier 8s i ever played

[@___von___7377]

I agree. Although I get the "grinding" aspect when it comes to getting better modules, but at the same time, all it does is negatively affect the player's, and subsequently, the tank's overall win rate.

[@BogdanFL850]

Bro tier 8 Pantera is literally worse than the premium version of it (progetto). How is that even fair for f2p players

[@foppiano126]

I agree there are plenty of nice tier 8's that have harsh stock grinds, but one example always comes to mind for me when I think of premium power creep. The is3 is a very good, solid heavy, but there are 3 premium heavies now that do its job better, if with only a few drawbacks. 252U Defender, is3a, and the Kirovets. I'd also make a case for counting the Obj 703 II, but im going for the single barrel types. Sure the is3 is still great, but anyone can just pick up one of these when Wargamming brings them out, and theres literally no need to play the is3. Its very sad to me.

[@joelbackman4389]

Yeah, stock tanks are a fucking joke. That's why I completely stopped playing regular tanks. I play premiums and reward/special/bond/token tanks. I have grinded for two tier 10s, and I will never grind for another tech tree tank again.

[@Hermelin.G1]

@@joelbackman4389 well dont you have alot of free xp? why not use that on modules save yourself from grinding stock🤷🏽‍♂️

[@Fishrokk]

Above tier 6 on Ensk, every tank gets into the action very quickly. That's just how it goes when you spawn inside spotting range.

[@Groaznic]

Hot tip for QB and anyone else: when you're about to be rammed, if you're reversing away from the rammer and realize there's no possibility to escape and you will get rammed, the least you can do when you have that realization, is to stop reversing and change direction toward the rammer, that way you shift the ramming calculations a tiny little bit more in your favour than if you're being rammed as you try to move away from the rammer.

[@ovni2295]

Which is the opposite of real life, where moving away makes things more favorable to you. Probably why people don't think of that!

[@SemperFidelis903]

The look on QB's face when he is trying to figure out what to do with an SPG is priceless.

[@Antwize]

8:08 YES absolutely. it comes at no surprise to me that most tech tree T8's win rates are suffering

[@thethinking1]

My opinion - tier 8 are doing badly because they have to fight higher tier more often than not. Artillery can still be more effective in that scenario...

[@retard-qf2ze]

T8 premiums are actually doing super fine, so arty is just up there because they dont have a premium counterpart they could be matched against.

[@warkus123]

5:34 155 51 is actually hilariously fast when it's got field mods on, with 1st giving engine power and 2nd giving 5kmh top speed boost, if you pair that with a turbo... I know it's useless 99.9% of the time, but it's hillarious when you're relocating and you can drive around at 69km/h with 28.9hp/ton... and thats without 105 octane even.

[@prozac5314]

bc 155 58 is even better, you can have troll TD moments

[@DJackson531]

I won't claim the Lorr 155 (either of them) is a spectacular vehicle, but the speed makes it a silly fun SPG to drive. And frankly, it's one of the most hilarious late game TD mode SPGs you can hope for; folks often don't have a chance to even react when you come screaming around a corner at them. It's also a halfway decent ram; sure the hp is a bummer but its fairly heavy and the speed means meaty rams on many tanks. It's a glorious way to end a match, win or lose.

[@robinkhn2547]

the reason why premium tanks often have win ratios is that they are fully upgraded right from the get go, only thing you can improve there is the crew. If you start grinding out a tech tree tank, the first few dozen games you will probably have a WR which is around 40 percent or even lower. Thats not the case with premium ones. Plus often you sell the tech tree tank when moving to the next higher tier, so a lot of time tech tree tanks don't get mastered as premium ones. IMO you can't compare Win Ratios from Tech tree tanks with premium tanks because of all these different factors. From the WR alone you can't really say whether a tech tree tank is bad or not.

[@zomgl2pnoobffs]

[@mravrg5590]

The tier 8 french artillery was my first artillery, i got 3 marks on before the arty changes. Its a pretty good arty, because it has a good ratio of damage/stun, accuracy and reload time. The gun ark is a bit low, so you need to consider it into your positions sometimes. But the speed enables those position changes. All in all probably best tier 8 arty.

Tier 8 regular tanks has always been the black sheep of WoT, even before the infestation of OP premiums. Especially with medium tanks since there has been no good tier 8 regular mediums since forever (as far as I remember there have never been a regular tier 8 MT that was a staple of Tier 8 CW/skirmishes). There are some decent ones (panthera, T-44), but compared to other tier or other class tier 8 MT regular simply suffers. HT at least has VK, Yoh, and some decent ones like IS-3 and Tiger II. TD still has RHM, Udes, ISU. LT sadly suffers since EBR era with only brits LT surviving with a super niche camo build.
