705A next? would be amazing

[@cSimplicity_]

Just use 277 is7 or 60tp all better

[@darkySp]

​@@cSimplicity_ Not really. Worse armor on the front, along with angling makes them really easy to pen frontally if they sidescrape. 705A has beefier armor with right angles to make sidescraping better, plus the rear mounted turret and it has no weak spots on the turret, unlike the 277 and 60TP. 705A is scary in a good position, but the others are easily countered. Plus, 705A has better survivability out of position, too. When getting pushed and so on. It's a pretty good tank.

[@GutekLife]

​@@cSimplicity_yes but sometimes you like black color (bouncing) in those tanks you don't have it 😊

[@Without3]

⁠@@darkySpi love 705A is one of my favourite, it can turn fast it have a nice platform, no weakspot in hulldown o sidescraping nice alpha dmg and decent penetration, bad thing are gun handling that is not really enjoyable, and ammo rack problem like crazy, i got 1 shoted many time

[@Propan-Bhutan]

Ye the 705A for me feels like home i love it..

[@Taooflu]

Can honestly say I played this TD around 100 games and the gun was very trollish half the time.

[@tstreb66]

100% troll accuracy. Skorp G is better in this case.

[@pinhead5392]

I remembered that skill once gave us a redeem code so we can rental 1 premium tank for a few days and i chose SU-130 PM. Played it and loved it altho i can honestly say that the gun behavior is quite unpredictable sometimes its hitting sometime the shell went like crazy. 10:34 and the next two shots is a good example of my experience whenever im sniping with this tank

[@etm8539]

I bought this tank a few days ago, I regret nothing, good enemy face-slapper

[@michabernatowicz6892]

Skill, i have noticed you don’t have a video about AMX 12t and it is rated as epic so maybe there should be a video on index page ;)

[@yuriys5642]

For stats you probably need to add up Forest Spirit as well

[@rileyadams3382]

Ah yes, my favourite tank. My go-to whenevver I have a string of bad games. Thanks skill!

[@wolfgangschwingenheuer7861]

I had SU-130 and switched to ForestSpirit. Interesting fact: The ForestSpirit feels way more sluggish and slow.... same stats, same equip, same crew...

[@hybossa7]

Can't help to notice , I thought I was the only one , or are we delusional

[@flexbert7596]

It might have different groubd resistance

[@matthewyang7893]

Very nice video timing sir, I got this tank and I love it so much more than a skorpion. I put grousers and with the field mod it is very mobile so I can play it like a second line medium with optics, you can also get full view range. Edit: skeeeeil the tank has a lot of gun elevation when pointing straight forwards, comparable to mr lowe.

[@Kohagaan]

Get a bond turbo. Or at least a bounty one.

[@recon_ron7746]

For some reason after picking this up I cant make it work, the main issue for me is the gun goes all over the place, I can aim dead center and it wont even hit a tank at all

[@Inc1neRyu]

I was thinking about buying su-130pm, and then I see Skill has uploaded video on it. Coincidence?

[@MisterBiter]

Bought it today, wanted forest spirit but second best is alright.

[@llPalazzosama]

He's making videos on tanks which are in the Weekly Holiday Offers, so not so much of a coincidence if it's where you wanted to buy it from.

[@oldguyplayin5828]

I truly like this tank. a close second to skorp. pretty mobile. gun is better than avg, and hits pretty hard, imo!

[@davediaz6748]

Hey Skill, hope all is well. This is my go to tank to make credits. During Holiday Ops, with clan boosters and personal reserves, easy 1M per 1hr session. Gun hits hard, has amazing cammo, but… the gun can be trollish. You need to aim all your shots as snapshooting is not an option. IMO Skorpion is more accurate, but I like SU more.

[@CyberMaroon]

The GSOR has a 45mm lower plate with some good angling, it's quite effective at blocking HE.

[@remabk]

Su-130pm is awesome! I played a lot of games in it. Made me a lot of credits and I like playing it.

[@nikospiaxas3333]

I bought this tank from the advent calendar. Best buy I ever did. I love it, because of the camo and the Alfa. Gun can troll you sometimes but I can live with it. And of course it's making quite good credits.

[@Evro_X]

Many people say Skorpion is so good but I just bought SU-130PM and I love it, Skorpion has such bad camo I had games when I was sitting in the bush and was getting spotted by super heavies like wtf... SU-130PM has much better camo and I in my opinion gun is much more reliable, bought it from festive offers and thats my number 1 tier VIII premium to go and just enjoy the game during holiday ops, prints credits like crazy, having this tank I don't think I'll ever go back to play Skorpion🤣

[@ColleTheCool]

Some good games, but you need to train a lot more with triangels - high cammo and great view field and Baam when they make mistakes :-) keep up the good work

[@davidh1187]

Played 15 games with this and hit rate at under 300m was less than 30%. Accurate - bullshit.

[@matthewyang7893]

Put IAU in the firepower slot, even better is bonded or bounty IAU

[@davidh1187]

@@matthewyang7893 I have IAU - makes no difference - today 5 battles 0 dmg 30% hits sub 300m. The gun is garbage.

[@folx2733]

[@bobnicholas5994]

Dont forget the incredible cammo. Sitting still with cammo directive and concealment skill 100% with crew 60%..crazy.

[@MisterBiter]

How do you get 60% I get most 43% 4 skilled crew, max camo, etc

[@folx2733]

​@@MisterBiterfood and camo directive

[@kimberlainodriscoll4781]

SU-130PM is one of my favorite tanks to play. It's not outstanding at anything, but it's good at everything.

[@VosperCDN]

Same here, no regrets at getting it (also have Forest Spirit for double the fun), but it does like to have rng moments like Skill was having in the 2nd half.

[@kimberlainodriscoll4781]

@@VosperCDN The gods of Wargaming like to interfere. I've seen shots simply drop to the ground as if smacked by a giant hand. I am often known to say that the outcome has been determined before the counter reaches zero.

[@spicycreampasta]

I haven't tried scorpion yet but I'm enjoying this mothertrucker like there's no tomorrow

[@darkySp]

Unless you're looking for a German tank specifically, you're fine with the SU-130PM as is. I planned to save my lootbox gold to get a Skorpion G, but found this guy in the festive week sale, so if I want a German premium, I'd probably go with a Lowe.

[@neilwilliams4684]

If you like heavies maybe. My Skorpion G is the second tank I play most days as it's that flexible, profitable and fun.@@darkySp

[@amineharimech3753]

Su-130 Pm is better trust me

[@ricardosilva7360]

Sniper tank was the best meme joke on this tank LMAO

[@alex.mielus]

Both Skorp G and SU 130 PM are my most played tanks (over 1k games each) and I can tell you ... sometimes Skorp is acting like kaku, sometimes SU is acting like kaku 🤭🤭 Other times both are like magnificent mother truckers and hitting every single shot! Overall, they are VERY good credit makers, since most people can do on average at least 1.5k dmg.

[@mitchthepower]

OMG those bounces in the second game...

[@Edy39]

Honestly I like the skorp G over this can t rely on the gun not that much of a speed i mean yea better cammo but skorp will do it too whith a little bit of skill

[@jeanpierreflu8454]

Ultimate sniper, 18 shot / 9 hit / 4 pen , full heat ofc . This tank is unconsistant

[@strykerjones8842]

This tank is so frustrating for me, the gun is all over the place. Maybe I don’t know how to play sneaky sniper schnitzel’s well but it’s not been my finest gaming experience.

[@eric-wb7gj]

ty 🙏🙏

[@cookies23z]

I bought the skorpion g a long time ago because of hype, and it was pretty fun td, mobile with fantastic gun but I had no german tds, no crew, no desire to get more german tds... it was honestly a waste and I actually sold it for credits just so it wasnt clogging garage (despite 50 extra space) because mentally I didnt want to bait myself into playing the tank su-130pm is kinda similar, I didnt care for russian td line, but I like su130 more despite the gun feeling worse, I think the better camo and low profile "feels" better more often. I still use su130 sometimes but not a tank I want to play a dozen games in a day in, not like my progetto spaghetti tank or my ae phase 1 (which I really love despite me thinking id hate it when I got it) or my super conq and conway

[@spasimirpetrov2862]

Gun definitely can troll u from time to time but overall its a very good tank and it was my first premium vehicle and i love it

[@marcooni79]

As soon as you loaded "gold" gun didnt behave

[@TVTransmo]

15:44 I think the "problem" is there is a lot of returning players (wb peepz :) ) ....So half the team play last years or older meta, 25% play current meta and the rest 25% is like " wtf is going on?" and end up camping base/red-line or joining the lemming train. Nobody got map, Medium´s lost the ability to spot and are helpless if the light is dead.

[@clausbohm9807]

" ...The games now-a-days ... how do I say this ... are interesting" Hey you are talking about me ... ha ha ha! Watch it or I am going to put a hex on your kitty ... you are a rarity, a sniper and a slugger.

[@ShapeshifterOS]

SU-130PM has slightly better camo then Skorpion. Also has high pen HEAT for dealing with super heavies at t9-10.

[@Sebastian-bp8hu]

su 130pm has one of those weird guns that hit 50% of the time full aimed

[@RuggedCoyote69]

Excelsior next? Would be amazing

[@znk0r]

I prefer it over the Skorpion. Lowerep profile and great cammo.

[@Shiki_Ale]

Next IS-M? It's been a while since you made a video abt it

[@mahlergustav4842]

My fave tank in the game 😊

[@kreetrz]

M46 Patton teir 9 American medium

[@darylsapergia3663]

I find on longer shots, if the crosshairs are top track wheel height above the ground, oft times, the shell will drop into the ground on this TD. if just above the tracks, hits on the button.

[@eagler1799]

its worth to buy this tank?

[@kripperinoobviousino6019]

Depends on your playstyle obviously

[@kelvinanjos]

it´s quite easy to do damage in this tank, with 3 shots you´re already doing 1.5k dmg, i had a lot of fun playing it, it has big alpha, good max speed which make´s relocating easy, IF you don't have to climb any hills, and of course it´s also a good credit maker

[@jc-tc6ei]

Yea, the gun is fine when the RNG is at your side

[@highongamin]

SU 130 PM is a crazy tank. Im a F2P tanker. I played with premium consumables since the marathon while losong humangas credits. So I changed it to manual fire extinguisher and the tank misses evey shots.

[@Kristiyan-Angelov]

Maybe you are the red or orange player then. Bcs the video shows something different. Do you see he has 3k whatever happens?

[@kravenfoxbodies2479]

I think the Skorpion G is more mobile and shadows as support better, SU - 130PU is purer sniper IMO..

[@janvandeven906]

Like this much better then skorp due to the better camo

[@brianlafrance4512]

Is SU better than scorpion?

[@hybossa7]

Far better , it's stalinuim sniper

[@Kohagaan]

It is a matter of taste. Some people like skorpion more. I like this more. It has better camo and a big boi gun. And i got a bond turbo compressor for it, so the mobility is better now 😁👍

[@folx2733]

They both have their strengths and weaknesses. SU is slow but low profile and better camo, scorpion is faster with worse camo and bigger profile

[@tiredguy709]

Wz120ft next?

[@NynkeFdejong]

to bad that the su 130 or skor not for sale is anymore

[@m.u.3211]

Thats not right, you can buy the tanks anytime…watch wg homepage

[@bogdanraulzbinca3433]

Skorpion gun is a bit better when you fully aim, but you know why this tank is better than Skorpion? Because Su-130 is way dificult to be spotted, and a bit of the compensationfor SU is alphadmg and the power of heats.

[@jurmps3517]

[@angrygerman3229]

I have played a total of over 120 rounds with the SU 130 in the last 6 days. The first 70 battles were very satisfactory with a win rate of 61% and an average damage of 2900. However, in the last 2 days I have gotten massively worse. The gun hardly hits anything anymore. I don't understand how rng can get so bad. It's just very striking. That just makes me angry.
