I would definitely drop cents in favor of vert stabs. Vents are great because they bump up everything, but only a very small amount and this tank has some serious deficiencies that need a lot more than just a little help. I would gladly give up the 10 meters view range to be able to improve gun handling and connect more shots.

[@philosophist9562]

yeah, vert stab is a must

i like the tornvagn though. the first premium tank in ages that does in no way conform to the faster-and-faster meta we are currently experiencing. currently it is who is yoloing first and whos yolo is the most effective. this tank is basically anti yolo. it lives it all slowly and steadily

[@Devestator707]

Genuine question QB. Why is view range so crucial on this and heavies in general? I understand wanting to be able to spot, but considering this vehicles stays at relatively close range and will still be out spoted when a light/med knows what their doing. Is it really worth dropping vertical stabs? Also the chapters are a nice touch.

[@CleavingRay]

Generally you either get 5-15 matches, 15-5 matches or 10-10 where you have to actually do more than just sit in the same spot and wait for opponents. If you get in a 10-10 matchup where you need to move, you need the spot range or you're effectively useless since you'll get smacked to death before even seeing them.

[@inlovewithgoats1092]

Without view range you have to rely on your team more. In most matches you will be able to keep at close range, but in those matches where that is not possible and you have nobody spotting for you, view range will be the game winning stat...

[@baronvonlimbourgh1716]

When you only have something like 400m or so and you do end up alone on a flank or the last one standing you really are at a disadvantage and even mediums can stay unspotted when shooting at you. This used to happen quite a bit back in the day before the viewrange creep and it can make you completely helpless if the other player knows what hes doing. On the other hand, how often does that actually happen. Open map, alone in a heavy, the enemy having a clue etc. As long as you have a team mate around or are on a city map you'll manage just fine. And virt stabs will always be a bennefit and make the tank a lot less frustrating. In my opinion it is at least worth it to try to use the virt stabs a bit. It is a trade off either way.

[@inlovewithgoats1092]

@@baronvonlimbourgh1716 thanks to field mods we can now have stabs on city maps and optics on open maps. Makes heavies much more playable

[@baronvonlimbourgh1716]

@@inlovewithgoats1092 yeah, you think that is a good development? In the end equipment also is another balancing mechanic that they removed from the game. It forced players to make choices. Optimise for one sort of map and playstyle and end up weaker on the other ones, or do you go for an allround setup and give up specific advantages on specific maps. To me this is just another form of power creep. Same goes for the turbos. The tanks speed and low mobility is also a major part of its balancing, giving up speed also gave you some advantage somewhere else in return, usually armor. All this stuff is why balancing in the game is such a mess and power creep is becomming a major issue. Anyway, thats my point of view. It is what it is i guess.

[@NavGTI]

I must say, this thing seems relatively 'lackluster' which is a good thing. In a lot of ways it reminds me of the T32/T34 indeed, incredible turret armor but a lot of sacrifices to get to that part. Considering a lot of people will want this tank, it's good to see it's not the new flavor of the month OP premium.

[@PlainCruel]

I agree and I really hope they keep these hull down monsters being lackluster in other stats for that sacrifice.

[@Tomohran]

A tank introduced to slow down games (and to complete heavy tank damage blocking missions)

[@eijijivjiv]

It feels like all this game is these days is broken prem tanks and power creep no weakpoints exactly why I stopped playing

[@kristofferjohansson3768]

In a way Tornvagn is the perfect prototype premium. Hear me out: prototypes are super good at one or two things, but are so bad at other things they can’t be mass produced. But most prototype tanks in WOT aren’t really bad in most characteristics and epic in a few, but good at almost all, making them superior. So Tornvagn seems rather balanced. But as this tank is so hull down meta, it could be game damaging.

[@GoatingVirtual]

In my opinion, this is a real heavy tank. The tank makes sense to have the heavy class asignment. I know the tank is gonna be good at being hulldown and that’s fine since it doesn’t get anything better in any catagory. Look at the tanks that have the same mechanic as this: - Concept 1B has mobility, good gun handling, good DPM and good view range. - T95/FV4201 Chieftain basically has everything in one. These are all super good. Other tanks at the same tier as this one that also shares the same feature: - Caernarvon/Caernarvon AX has the hulldown capabilities, good gun and mobility. - T32 has basically the same as the Caernarvon, good hulldown capabilities and good mobility. However, there is the one that fits really well with the Bofors Tornvagn that QB did show in his video - the T34. The T34 fills in almost all check marks: - Same DPM. - Same Penetrations. - Overall same gun handling, even if it doesn’t look like it. - Same hulldown capabilities. - Mostly the same mobility as well. Also I know the turret has weakspots on top with the whole overmatching thing, yes I know. That’s not all there is. Now…how often do we even see T34s anymore? Rarely I’d presume. So why would this new tank hurt anymore that the T34 already does? I’ll say it again. It’s only in my opinion and I don’t say that I am 100% correct on what I have written. Everyone has right to their own. TL:DR - From my standpoint, I think the tank is actually okay and not stupid op. Basically a new T34 in my eyes. Here is a cookie 🍪 and some milk 🥛.

[@juriszzzgaming8837]

basically. its weird to see vehicles whos meta was Originally sidescrape or so. Hell, just looks at the 113, or T110E5 or T62A, forgotten, extemly powerfulll tanks except they dont have 10+ degrees of gun depresion.

[@71CommodoreGSE]

This might come back to bite me, but... somehow this might not be a broken tank for once? Maybe the DPM and speed are just bad enough to balance out the fact that it has no turret weakspot? I still don't think that we really needed more hulldown tanks, but I feel like this is a better direction for balancing tanks.

[@rexmexzilla]

but that is just the only good thing about it…it has a lot of weaknesses to exploit

[@pernormann4869]

Can you hear it? It's the campers cheering the upcoming perfect camper tank.

[@GamingBigChief]

Accuracy is shite though so won't be quite as successful

[@erickauffmann_official]

I feel the tornvagn will torn apart his opponents😌

[@phantomechelon3628]

Unless the player really knows what he's doing...then it could be a Trøllvagn 😉

[@erickauffmann_official]

@@phantomechelon3628 yeah you are right

[@Sliznark]

loved the chapter layout of the video! felt super professional and structured. great template, in my opinion. stay awesome QB

[@smallarmsfire7497]

QB: "This game is getting faster and faster and I don't like it." Also QB: "This tank is boring. It needs to be faster."

[@smallarmsfire7497]

You said it yourself- this isn't your kind of tank. I feel like this one missed the mark, QB. Reviews should be more objective.

[@robbby4011]

He said that it was too slow to get into a fun position before the game was already decided. An EBR can spot it in 30 seconds, well before it can get hull down.

[@jorisjankauskas1647]

Bought 3 boxes got this tank on first box, now watching review :D

[@garrettammon1752]

Tanks like this might start to sway games to last longer. Or i would at least like to see that happen. Tired of 3 min blow out games.

[@tpapai9812]

Blow out games will keep happening as long as there are tanks that do craptons of DMG in 1-2 shots like pretty much all autoloaders, FV4005.etc. Unfortunately as soon as you make a slight mistake (meaning you're trying to push) you get punished by these and deleted in 0.5 sec.

[@vodka4gaben]

Love the Chapter Style Tank Reviews, would love to see more (when you do the Yoh tier 8 prem or the caliban review) pretty fun

[@call_me_julie]

People here whining it's gonna become a t8 chieftain: no. That's simply not gonna happen. Chief has great mobility, dpm and gun handling which the Tornvagn all hasn't. In fact the Tornvagn is worst in class in these 3 characteristics. Most scenarios shown by QB work with a T32 too, although it has bad pen in which case you use gold rounds. And the T32 is enjoyable to play unlike this thing because it can actually hit shots and doesn't reload for what feels like an eternity.

[@baguvix555555]

The problem with the vehicle is that your average happy tomato will be more than happy just sitting in optimal positions and clicking. The tank is a not horrible just for them cause the won't learn new skills, but for everybody else who won't be able to play.

[@robertflint4115]

WORLD OF TANKS is turning into TWISTED METAL. Clown cars and all. Almost ready to die. Rock on all.

[@mando_dablord2646]

I just got it yesterday, and enjoy it a lot so far. It's not crazy strong, but it's unique enough for it to be a worthwhile purchase, especially compared to the rest of the Swedish tree. Although gameplay is usually pretty slow and boring since you're best hull down to draw fire away or hold off a lane. But when you're in the mood to be particularly tanky this is a solid option.

[@GeroldLive]

One of the dumbest t8 prem so far u cant do dmg and enemy cant pen u just perfect

[@philosophist9562]

the turret is dumb but kran etc swedes has similar unpenetrable turrets, ofc this is smaller tho. skoda t56 was much more dumb and more op as well

[@FlaviaPitariu]

You can also pen the tank under the side skirts above the tracks if you're below it

[@carlofasano4293]

Before you read all the REEEEEE OPOPOPOP, Just ask yourself how many times you thought the T34 was OP just because on a ridge it's basically unpennable

[@exelibrium]

I'm relieved to see that there has been done some real attempts at balancing it.

[@lasikreiser561]

Tornvagn: when watching grass grow was too intense. Love the chapter aproach.

[@alxen9814]

QB director cut style: chapters. Great video, sir!

[@makemap]

I'm pretty sure you have to play this as a Heavy Assault tank like Tortoise but as a hull down version.

[@thefelring2817]

I wish you could do more of the classic tech tree video guides , the likes of The iger 1 , centuriin MkI.. ect how to play them and so on. Great job btw , keep it up.😁😁

[@g.d.graham2446]

Agreed

[@swift8821]

This format with the chapters was amazing.

[@shadowduck420]

Riot Games : "... we don't think our champions have overloaded kits overall" Wargaming : "Write that down, write that down!!"

[@BennyQueen]

Camille and fiora still busted to this day

[@rayr4320]

I dig the sequential video chapter format. These videos help explain how to destroy nouveau WOT vehicles. Tornvagn will be quite effective at stuffing choke points, like center of Erlenberg. Because of its static nature, it will be a bit of a liability when operated by passive teammates. Nest building top tier tanks at positions that do not hinder enemy advance become liability tanks much like TDs that locate to NE A-0 corner position of erlenberg (or g-4 position of westfield), claming "we are on defense". At least Tornvagn is slow...we will see how it goes as more people get their hands on it.

[@DilianBox]

The tank recieved a tremendous Buff

[@ianhollanders501]

Just push the tank if it sits in the right position. It does not have the DPM to take of your tracks twice. So you get it’s side like the bourrasque did in the end.

[@evesquall]

QB : "This is slow, lumbering, painful tank to play" Me, a regular Japanese superheavy enjoyer : " HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I LOVE THIS TANK"

[@ArchusKanzaki]

Seriously I will gladly play more Japanese Heavy..... Just please buff the turret cheek abit more? Its way too weak and I'm suffering every time I saw a 60TP penned my turret cheek. Its not like Japanese heavy don't have enough weakness on the hull already

[@PizzandCodeine]

@@ArchusKanzaki just sell all of em u got in ur garage, literally the worst tanks in the whole game

[@baylor17]

Just recently got this in some boxes. I enjoy it and play it like an aggressive, breakthrough heavy BUT I feel like every time I succeed I think about it for a minute and realize I could've done just the same but faster/better in a Skoda T 56.

[@urmask7264]

Q1 How many maps there are in the game where you can efficiently use it's main purpose? Q2 How often do you get on those maps? Then do some calculations and you'll find out how much every good game costs you. I think that even my IS6 with it's top notch equipment & crew can take on the tank even if it's on the ridge line- I'll just cross over and then use my better DPM to ruin it's day.

[@STRAY3R]

i like these little segments uve done in the video

[@Danfunnyman1234]

The thing's counter is the fact that battles are over before it gets into position

[@VanillaWinters]

I was interested in this tank cus I love the visual design but again thank you QB for the review. Good to know if I get this it will end up probably just sitting in the garage for 90% of the time.

[@acedfox541]

I wonder 1 thing. If you make everything WORSE with the field modification and equipment, instead of making it better. *Will it actually become suddenly good?*

[@rexmexzilla]

I gotta say i am at a crossrodes here. For the first time i have found the game to be incredibly stale. When i started playing i was a hull down player. i loved the tactic and it worked wonders. it wasnt that popular but i made it work really well on almost any tank. then i learned sidescraping but before that hull angling. and it was fun i used the t29 to sidescrape all the time. But now, seeing how stale the game has become with hulldown monsters and vehicles with no weaknesses. either the games are lemming trains that crush a flank and just brute strenght with no tactics, full godl spam. or the campiest games ever. People jsut watchign each other on their hulldowns. No tactics, no sniping weakspots, LOTS of gold just yoloing through the air and quite a waste of map desgin. there are ares of eveyr map that are not even touched ever. (i know about places like lakeville and so, dont get smart with me). so it has come to a point in wich trying somethign new usually fails and follwing the meta becomes incredibly boring.

[@vxthemajortomxv441]

Seems to me like it's exactly what yhe t34 was back in the older build of WoT. Slow with Derpy Gun. Once it got to a good Hull down spot was nearly indestructible until flanked or Arty got a good shot off. Interesting to see them try this in the current meta

[@Crepe-Rev]

Sweden: can i copy your homework? America: yea sure just dont make it look obvoius The homework:

[@Crepe-Rev]

Tell me im not the only one that thinks its just swedish concept 1 b

[@austria5892]

vert stab, improved aiming, rammer. Drop the vents and the food but add gas consumable

[@milospostic5401]

Love the enthusiasm in the review! :D If I get this from a crate I will be disappointed

[@Swampmonster-uk]

You can always rely on quickybaby to come out first with a review

[@MissCelinax3]

Haha the thumbnail with those boxes.. 🤣❤🙉

[@Janduin45]

Well done QB, the pronunciation on the two first "tornvagn" is probably as good as it can get without actually learning swedish!
