Skorpion: The Tank That Stings Hard! | World of Tanks

[@richydk7242]

I won’t stop complaining about how trollish the Skorpion gun is. 😂👍 Good video.

[@pgruszewski]

Yep. Yet another time it seems to me like Skill plays different game than we do. The way gun handling worked in last game is the regular way for me, maybe even bit worse.

[@Jay-kf3od]

My God it's trollish. Some games you can't hit a skyscraper point blank.

[@Realstylez88]

In 100 battles I don't think I hit more than 5 shoots 490dmg or higher....most of them....when I hit.....are around 400_450

Sometimes Scorpion gun slaps me in the face like t-103 gun do, it just refuses to hit the target, other times it hits the most impossible shots

[@jacopus]

You know this is an 'ol tank by the fact Skill is not using any bond/bounty equipment on it 😂 The skorpion is one of the last "very good premium tanks without being OP af". It is strong, but without some brain a lot of people struggle to do something with it.

[@plasmadrone3123]

and don't forget this tank was the first of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse that started the OP Premium trend. The Defender, Patriot, and Liberte followed this afterwards and the unstoppable OP bullshit started from there.

[@Neko.Virtual]

it is bad tank, u get spotted first and it can never hit anyone

[@ukchris64]

@@Neko.Virtual You get one shot off, and then die, time after time, plus there seems to be less and less vegetation on maps now, as for OP tanks, there is no such thing.

Taking my daily dose of skill for 3+ years now. Glad to announce that last year I started a new account and went from 54% winrate to 61%. Maybe 3 more years and I get to 64 😂 On a real note, thanks skill for making DAILY videos like the baboon King you are.

[@ZoltarWOT]

Hi, I bought this tank a few days ago and I must say that it has a combination of features and dynamics like few other tanks in the game. I enjoy it a lot. I've experienced a similar gameplay style before with the Hellcat, but that was a long time ago, before the nerf. The Hellcat also didn't have that OOMPH feel in the form of a big gun and alpha dmg. Great tank, much fun.

[@txp-tuff4358]

The Skopion G is still a good tank, even today. I think the most difficult thing for lesser players with this tank is the camo. Without a Camo trained crew and all the other camo equipment, this tank can be practically spotted in the spawn within 5 seconds of the game. It has neon road flares for camo. Always double bush or you will get spotted at any distance when firing. Just about any other TD has better effective camo. Gun will troll sometimes, but is on par with SU-130PM. Other than that, all's good with it.

[@namegoeshereorhere5020]

I find the 130's gun way more reliable, the Skorp makes you want to smash your head into a wall because it misses so many shots it shouldn't, whereas the 130 has the hand of Stalin.

[@ChrisSmit1977]

Skill my man, I love you maté. Amx 13-57...what a lovely shot on this poor soul ..he was traveling at 57 klh and he met you on Friday 13nd

[@faultline3936]

This tank stings me harder than I can sting the enemies. Idk man, I have 0.26 accuracy on this tank and I just seem to miss or bounce a lot of shots (even fully aimed shots) in comparison to tanks with 0.33 like the Bourrassque. I guess my Skorp just didn't have enough blessings from RNGesus. Funny thing is, I also can snipe with the Bobjekt v4 better than Skorp G lmao

[@Wojtekpl2]

Skorpion is good but the gun can be sometimes so derpy it's painful. But the sound of the gun firing is so nice. 😁

[@FramedFreddy]

No matter what build I use the gun trolls me so often that I prefer the SU over the Skorpion these days. I dont say it is a bad tank and many players I know personally have awesome games in it but maybe I bought a "Monday-Model" and WG put the wrong numbers into my pixel tank? But hey after this video I will try the Skorp again?

[@zxy7529]

Me and my buddy have the same issue with the Skorp and prefer SU130 with turbo

[@NoThisIsPatrick_]

Totally different for me. Skorpion snipes perfect and su trolls me all the time.

[@92Koondog92]

I love my Skorp, but I never get the kind of consistent gun handling that Skill has here. I get trolled non-stop, and there are days when it hits no more than half the time. When RNG is on your side, it is the best. When you piss off the RNG gods, you might as well go have a nap, because you ain't hitting ANYTHING.

[@gregstubbings7643]

I like the Su130 better than skorp even though its slower. The skorp's gun for me is unreliable (misses so often) and the turret is so slow to rotate.

[@zxy7529]

Yes and camo is better on su, turbo on SU helps a lot too

[@TrashedPandaProductions]

Have over 2000 battles in the Skorpion G and majority of games I don't use premium. It is a guaranteed money maker. But lately they nerfed the gun and rng makes sure shots miss now.

[@CurriesB4Durries]

Ever since the start of 2023 the Skorp gun feels incredibly trollish, is there actual evidence of the gun being nerfed or was it a stealth nerf do you think? Cause that third game of Skill's on Himmels feels like the average game for me with Skorp, missing easy fully aimed shots constantly.

[@giannidisumma2948]

@@CurriesB4Durries I have the same experience with the skorp gun

[@giannidisumma2948]

@@N_u_r_d I think the gun is good but when I compare it to guns with similar stats (aim time & dispersion) it sometimes tends to have trollish shots. I always take time to fully aim with skorp cause of the reload time and bad camo but the gun sometimes just says no. Maybe it's a psychological effect cause it feels more punishing due to the 10s reload.

[@voicelag]

I used to be good in this tank late cant hit anything with regular ammo. Magic bounces off elcs fully aimed shots flying over

[@onemorebox148]

This tank is what gsor 1010 wished to be but failed in every way possible

[@theshadegames3531]

Eh? It has the better turret traverse and accuracy on the move. Not every tank needs 490 alpha. Not every tank needs a clone. Besides the Skorp G has one. It's called the Skorp

[@adioperta1451]

[@jakubpiotrovski6215]

​@@adioperta1451better for first 15 second till reaload time, then you're just useles piece of metal for 40 seconds. Don't take me wrong it's a good TD but definitely not better than skorp.

[@jakubpiotrovski6215]

@@mraeterna my bad I was talking about the TD with auto reloader. (Gsor 1008). Yet still I don't think it better than skorp. Sure you have mobility and great gun but you're med and skorp is TD. Basically if you want to buy 1010 you will be better with burasque. And as I said I don't think any of them is bad.

[@casuscnactus4864]

I thought Su 130 is better and it is in most ways, not much slower than Skorpion aswell. The big difference is that the Skorpion has a reliable gun and the Su doesn't.

[@casuscnactus4864]

[@DA-cl4ww]

I recommend rotation instead of improved aiming on this as the extra traverse goes a long way in making it even more leo pta like. I actually use rammer + rotation device + exaust and it feels like a leo a tier lower. Amazing tank.

[@makkoyun]

I used rammer, rotation, optics for a long time and it worked fine. now I'm trying exhaust instead of optics and want to drop rammer for something else and see how it performs

[@DA-cl4ww]

@@makkoyun Rammer is too important. That 10 second reload is low enough for you to get 2 shots off in the time of many 390 alpha tanks reloads if you get the drop on them. That is just too big a deal to drop for anything else imo. Exhaust was noticeably useful though and let me get away with alot that I couldn't with the base camo.

[@ThomasDavisRealEstate]

Great job. Would like to see how skorp does in 3 light tank scenario

[@Trouba315]

I can say my Skorpion is definetely broken down...gun handling is HORRIBLE. It can't hit barn from inside unless is fully aimed and then troll factor is still very strong. I think JP II has much better gun even whitout tower.

[@Jayhawk226]

Love this tank too. One of my first premiums never regretted the purchase. The SU130PM gun can troll you.

[@alexanderstoyanov7464]

I'm Scorp team too, Su moments are way too much to like 130pm, one of the worst "reliable" guns in the game

[@markwilkinson294]

question, why do you turn around and face the rear of the tank to the area you're aiming? New to the game and trying to pick up things like this.

[@TrashedPandaProductions]

That way you can move of any enemies faster than trying to pivot your tank or move backwards.

[@CurriesB4Durries]

Also when you're playing a tank that has no armour it doesn't matter which way you're facing you're not gonna bounce any shots so yeah better to be prepared to run.

[@markwilkinson294]

@@CurriesB4Durries yeah figured it was the Skorp's glass cannon nature. So basically if you can angle and bounce from the front face that way, otherwise do this.
