World of Tanks || the VK 100.01

[@mariosstavrou2251]

@quickybaby Hey there quickbaby!I am freezax ;) thank you for posting my replay man! really apprieciate! This tank is one of the most powerful tanks I have ever played and I find it amazing! I choose to play with the small gun because the gun dispersion, the gun aim and reload time is far better than the bigger gun. You can snipe during movement easily with that gun. So to answer your question if I choose to play with the small gun the answer is yes:) thank you once again for uploading my replay to your channel. means a lot to me!

[@spannerboy3708]

If you can tell me how to deal death to one of these monsters I will be forever in your debt. Pure beast!!

[@OchaFauzan01]

Jay Tee shot its lfp, not cupola or everything else unless you have a reliable ~250mm of gun penetration

QB is da man of YT

[@no_4259]

Did you not hear the new policy for ads, YT will not put adds in War related videos, to avoid unwanted adds... and since this is somehow connected there...

[@nghiale4910]

i've never seen a single ad for 3 years since i've watched QB

[@Luckvieh]

+Aragorn uninstall Adblock then... incredible behaviour

[@adamskerrett2260]

Aragorn i keep seeing the fucking legend 27😠

[@ant1k3r8]

AP only respect for this player and GG

[@vukpsodorov5446]

well, he did fire 3 of his 20 APCR rounds there at the end against that T28. but, to be fair, I'd do the same. you can't let your shells bounce off in those situations.

[@cookiecraze1310]

Idg how people make profits in rounds where they fire premium rounds, if they're not premium. I can't load anything other than AP and HE if I want to be able to afford them next tank in the line

[@zweboi1094]

@Narushat Impostora how much ya playing to achieve that? xD

[@GhostKiller755]

"only 190mm" "only 220" "only 200" I don't think you understand what only means

[@davidb3155]

He's being sarcastic.

[@martinprochazka7347]

bloat Against this tank it *is* "only".

[@agfagrg5556]

[@stevenglikin3219]

I don't think you understand that this is a tier 8 tank, most tier 8s have over 210 penetration with standard ammo.

[@napieragoncillo]

i think qb doesnt understand what "not bad" means too. 50k credits profit is t8 premium profit on a regular victory.

[@Mkananoja]

Today i learned, how to sidescrape with VK 100.01. I was totally getting my butt handed over in nearly all brawl conditions. i was angling my VK too little, presenting my lower plate with too little ancle, and especially track underplate. 3 match later i scrape and bounce by no lie, several times more than i did before. thank you quickybaby for posting this!

[@SavingAsh]

Meanwhile the E-100 line get's left behind.

[@herwinladres3659]

Props to this guy for not being a cancer and kept using prem ammo whole game. Good game

[@hofgeneric]

I've played quite a bit with both guns on this and I gotta say the 105 is more consistent (especially if you are facing tanks with weak spots you can exploit), but when the 128 derp canon hits it is devastating, especially when you're top tier. Not to mention the added dpm from the 630 HE rounds for shredding low armor tanks. Honestly tho I'm not sure which is best, probably just a preference sort of thing. I know right now I have the 128 equipped, but with the new MM hitting tier 8 heavies so hard I might switch back to the 105 for the better snap shots. My 2 cents.

[@MegaRaven100]

Well said and done. I m 100% with you on this. Hope QB agrees

[@magisterrleth3129]

I love the 100.01P. Of course, before this tank was released, the KV-4 was my favorite. I've just got a thing for slow monsters.

So I was not the only one to hear it ^^

[@GraniteGhost778]

I've honestly enjoyed this VK, it's quite an impressive vehicle honestly and I've been using the low tier gun as well. You can really troll the heck outta the enemy with both the gun and the armor so long as you know where to aim. It's been a very charming addition to the game.

[@ProtoxxGaming]

t29 140 mm apcr? isnt the standard ap like 198mm already

[@VANLERDEARNOOB]

240 apcr

[@tsmnbwhntr]

As slow as the 100.01 is, one of the first pieces of equipment I put on was a spall liner. I did the same for my AT's & Japanese heavies. It DOES make a difference, especially if their are multiple arty's in the game...

[@Synergist1c_]

wtf just realized there were *5 Super Duper Pershings* on the enemy team :O

[@az8702]

I played WOT for a couple of days a few years back, quit because i was so bad it just wasn't any fun. came back to the game a couple of days ago after watching one of your video's, just got my first ace badge 20 minutes ago. keep up the good work

[@XSpamDragonX]

The Defender is pure cancer, because the IS-6 wasn't good enough, they had to release a direct upgrade.

[@jkrull05]

It's not because the Defender has such a massive lower plate + people spam premium ammo while the gun can garbage it's basically hard to survive in unless you sit at the back of the map waiting for your enemies to be one shots.

[@VladiSSius]

No. Defender ain't shit. But it ain't OP either. It's true that Defender has massive lower plate area, however it can still be reversed-angling and giving enemy truly pain in the ass experience. The gun is not bad, it's typical Soviet gun. But it does has impressive 440 damage, that is NOT a small amount of damage in a tier 8 - and it's kinda OP in that department. In short, Defender is not "cancer", but it is an easy tank to play - provided the player knows how to play it :)

[@XSpamDragonX]

Any heavy tank has a problem when the enemy just fires gold, that's not a unique problem for the Defender. The lower plate doesnt matter if you use the tactic every tomato in a Defender/IS-6 uses which involves never letting go of W, and just face hugging the first tank you find.

[@luketfer]

Erm...the Defender does have those massive weakspot cupolas on the roof of the turret you know plus if you're in a taller tank you can just shoot down into the turret roof if he's facehugging you.

[@no_4259]

Hey, at least it is not the IS3 Defender from Blitz, that thing is op

[@user-ld3bl3lp7r]

Clean your floor, Dirtybaby!

[@Blox117]

lol

[@popomko]

After watching this video, I went back to the stock gun on the VK 100.01... yup, overall works better than the top gun. Thanks QB!

[@toddarmstein1528]

Seems like the new matchmaker makes grinding stock tanks that much more enjoyable. Plus you aren't forced to fully upgrade to be competitive. Your equipment of choice will eventually get the match to shine brightest in. GG.

[@dragancrnogorac3851]

120 shells? like tog 2

[@ibarix]

And a fking St. Emil has 15... balance...

[@GewelReal]

"REALISM"

[@emperror85]

Chuck Norris once played St Emil and got 29 kills.

[@jonttu050]

I use 105mm gun. I prefer having gun handling instead of big alpha, because it makes you much more flexible, even tho you lose some penetration, but you gain even dpm advantage over the 128mm.

[@theragebringer4424]

The grind with tiger p was frustrating but bouncing An isu 152 with your back and a conqueror and a lowe at the same time while spinning the tank feels hella good

[@ArchonOfDoom]

This tank is a beast. I love it to its max. Only frustrating problem is that the big gun on this vehicle is pointless... +140dmg and +20mm penetration for -40% firerate and -30% gun handleing in all situations it's bad. The 105mm is the way to go, aim for the weakspots and sometimes use prem ammo, and you should be fine.

[@MegaRaven100]

*Hey QB why don't YOU do a video comparing the use of the 105 mm vs the 128 mm.* As you said yourself this is an interesting development (and one I like) where the lower caliber gun can be MORE useful than the perfectly effective bigger one depending on the situation and style of particular players. It's a fascinating and subtle idea and one with implications for more tanks than just this one. EXPLORE THIS CONCEPT PLEASE! Thank you, buddy!

[@EnergiaRocket]

oh how I miss this map

[@ScottStathis]

Been using the 128mm and mostly putting up some good damage amounts fairly regularly. But, now will be trying out the 105mm.

[@Stuka87]

The VK100 is a monster, I love that thing. 60% win rate in mine, and even in T10 games, it can hold up pretty well. Just keep that copula hidden, although most T8's can't pen it.

[@Orodreth888]

Is the VK 45.02 (A) lost forever now? It was my favorite german T8 medium :(

[@gabrielvintescu3620]

No , it is still in game and it got buffed , it got "removed" from the Maus line and now it leeds to the Pz vii as the VK 45.02 B ( thats what QB ment )

[@germaniumge7768]

now it has tiger 2 armour but with the same speed and hp/t :D

[@zweesh13]

its not a medium tank LoL

[@novaman3509]

Ulfgar-Septimus von Stahlenberg It'll be on consoles forever. All the tanks PC lost, consoles still have.

[@Ka0s42]

Rancy Howard well, it's basically a medium that is a bit too fat XD Just like the T26E5 Patriot or FCM 50t. Both are labeled as heavies, but no one would try to drive it like one, because they are just overweight meds.

[@xenata1099]

Sweet, finally im able to enjoy 1080p60 on my s8 when watching your vids.. Great job !

[@CardScientist]

don't quite have the Mauschen yet, but I fully upgraded the Vk100.01 P and I love it. The 105 still feels like a good gun, and the 128 makes it hit hard. That darn cupola is a bit of a problem, but it's still relatively thick. Much thicker, if not smaller, than a kv4's weak spot on its turret

[@sharkbait4653]

CardScientist "thick"

[@Sam-im5tc]

This is the difference in me in my heavy tanks and people that can sidescrape. I am hyper aggressive in my heavy relying on my frontal armor more than the angling while I dish out death and despair to the enemy team. The sidescrapers sit next to corners and let the dumber people bounce off them. I more or less have adapted to avoid engaging sidescraping opponents because unless I'm coming from the side I just won't win the engagement.

[@zacharybalov5353]

honestly the vk10001p is really powerful, I'm not having any trouble playing with it. shells bounce off the cupola so reliably and if you angle right it's the best tier 8 super heavy

[@condemontanelas11]

If the IS6 already has problems with the current tier 8 heavy's I can imagine now....220 mm armor on that copula which means the IS6 cant pen that with APCR(217)... which also means power-creep :)

[@kaanbostanc9032]

condemontanelas i guess this is why trade exists

[@condemontanelas11]

if only you didnt have to pay extra to get a tank of the same value ...... oh well

[@lotrbuilders5041]

condemontanelas the IS-6 can easily penetrate the lower plate and the side

[@condemontanelas11]

Check your Facts Before you talk... 195~ mm non angled Lower plate armor + the last time I remember the IS6 is not a medium so getting that lovely side armor is not going to be a thing unless its a 1vs1 and your enemy doesn't have the A/D keys...

[@lotrbuilders5041]

condemontanelas please don't highlight yourself if looks like your an idiot. You'd be surprised how little most drivers angel. I don't have any problem penetrating the underside without premium most of the time and in a city you can get sides so often

[@Draugadan]

At the moment I am procrastinating after unlocking the VK 100.01, the extra loader means that I can shove the Brothers in Arms on my Tiger P crew up my backside, which actually has me leaning towards going up the american heavy line (starting with the mighty T-29 at tier VII) before continuing with the Maus line. At least the extra loader configuration stays consistent for the rest of the line.

[@graygrumbler5761]

The VK 100 was my first tier 8 tank (I've added two more) and it is a beast of a tank. The 105mm gun is great in a tier 8 match but is the ruin of this tank in a tier 10 or 9 match. I'll take the 128mm gun unless I am playing in a tier 8 skirmish.

[@_sEo_02_]

I love shooting the cupola with the 107mm gun in the KV-4 :)

[@twreese]

Very nice review. I have only had 12 battles with this tank, but it is already my highest experience scoring tank. So much more resilient armor than my IS3. I am working my way up to the Maus. I still have the 105mm gun and it works well. After watching your video, and looking at the specs, it is probably a better choice than the slower 128. But I'll eventually get one anyway.

[@jimfonzie2887]

I just "acquired" this beauty a few days ago & play about 30 battles. Context : - im an average player. - In those 30 battles : 50% with tiers 8 and lower, 50% with upper tiers 8 -means 9 & 10. - after a very good start at 70/80% (MM in my favor in first 10 battles), i do stabilize around 53-54%. First impressions : - armor is fantasic ; you easily block 3000/4000 dmg when you angle well ... in the good days - stock gun 200mm penetration is sometimes hard to play, even against tiers 8. Think twice against tiers 9 & 10 ;) - now competitors know the weak spots ;) - this is a slow tank : 19km/h max on flat ground. Sometimes you arrive late on 'le theatre des opérations" => big maps, hills ... - this tank is expensive to play with (repairs, ap rounds) even with premium account. - team behavior : very often your team mates expect you to go to the front, even in tiers 9 & 10 battles ... i do assume ... but it's sometimes inappropriate & annoying. - i do enjoy playing with - this VK100 is not OP in my current configuration. See you boys )

[@Lolsalad102]

Hey QB you should check out the vk 45.02 A again. It received some significant armor buffs when the new german heavies were added. It's armor is as good, if not better than the tiger 2's now.

[@punkodie]

lol, notice the superpershing unicorn how he dies first :D

[@sergejstevanovic6264]

yeah, i have 203 mm pen on my stock tiger 2 and i think it is a really good gun, i killed e 100, maus, and type 4 heavy in my first battle

[@RepairCat]

I played the VK 100.01 with both, the 105 and the 128, and imo the 105 is way better. Its a lot more flexible, has better DPM, better soft stats and can keep enemies tracked. The only advantages of the 128 are higher pen, alpha dmg and caliber for overmatching swedish TDs.

[@callumhindley5457]

Almost 500k! You deserve it

[@Liberty-or-Death-1776]

Just unlocked this beast using the double xp event yesterday. Can't wait to log in and play it.

[@brickbuilderx2316]

I went for the 128mm simply because I have been finding more tier 9 and 10 games rather than being top tier, so I kind of want to have better penetration because I don’t want to keep spamming gold. Though I do like the reload time of the 105mm.

[@jonniiinferno9098]

i like my VK100.1 - yeah - i know - it is slow - but great armor when used correctly - and - u can crush medium and light tanks, if u manage to trap them against a wall, large rock or hill...

[@Svylian]

That ending was hyped

[@stefanwosinsky1935]

we were supposed to get them before the weekend on console as well as the first 2 swedish tanks, but there was a delay so now we'll have them next tuesday... i am looking forward to the 100.1 P, it is the reason i've waited to unlock the maus and why i unlocked tiger (P). we'll see what the guns do on console, allthough i do expect them to be the same as they are on pc...

[@snakeenjoyingacanofbeans5219]

When he didn't do a pirate impression...I breathed a great sigh of relief.

[@xBatboys4]

Snake Enjoying a Sandwich That would've been cringe as fuck

[@racer9x]

Just goes to show that using the top gun on a tank is not always the go to choice. Sometimes the stock gun can give benefits.

[@sharkbait4653]

racer9x yea...but certainly not with British tanks...

[@millsy8774]

QB can you do a video on the M41 Walker bulldog to see how mach it has changed now that it has be moved up to tier 8

[@justdoingitjim7095]

It seems like 90% of my battles in this tank are against tier 9 and 10 tanks. I've been using the big gun and it just bounces off those big T-10's. After seeing this I'm considering using the smaller gun, but using more premium rounds. I'll have to check the cost, but I think the smaller shells will be cheaper.

[@Mildly_Amused]

The problem with using the 105mm on the VK 100,01 P is that in patch 9.18 tier 8 tanks are only top tier about 20% of their battles while they are bottom tier in about 50% of their battles. This is based on 200+ solo pub battles in regular matchmaking tier 8 tanks during the 7PM to 11 PM time period when the server population is at its highest. So, the 105mm gun isn't as effective against tier 9 & 10 tanks that this tank will see most frequently unless you want to spam premium ammo all the time.

[@napieragoncillo]

what are your equipments on vk 100? i only use a rammer and wet ammo rack. any tips for the last slot? and i use the 128mm gun cuz it just feels more appropriate for a heavy.

[@darthkarl99]

Question all, (doubt QB will see this, and he's probably good enough not to feel it so bad), but has anyone else noticed a really nasty tendency towards one sided wins/losses since the new patch, not quite sure on the cause but really disheartening.

[@LandkreuzerPRatte-on8zs]

You mean you win once then you get a loosing streak of 6-7?

[@imyourfodder9202]

Interesting. Using the 105 instead of the 128 is the same reason I use the 100 over the 122 in the IS -- higher ROF, and better aim values. :)

[@airdrop4873]

Quick, can I have the same ''Texture'' as you? Like, the tank are colored, and you could see the flags from the player's profile right into battle. Mine is normal. What should I do to be super as you? And Nice channel!

[@LichKing300ification]

its been nearly a year since i watched qb haha but its only bcs i play more league of legends .. qb is soo amazing as always! Im kinda back now :)👍❤❤

[@cobes11]

Did it seem odd that when the player's canera moved there was about a 1 second delay for the aiming circle to move along with it? The only replays I have seen where the camera and aim circle movements are always off are in blatant hacking games

[@TheSherlock247]

I’ve had sum fun games in this with just explosive loaded just destroying tracks and then angling perfect and seeing what’s the most damage I can block while everyone else returns fire. Blocked 9,000 damage so far. The 105 works good on a mk1 light maus 😂👍🏻

[@Cobra6Gaming]

All these "weakspots" are still more than the highest medium tank pen on T8 with standard rounds (226 on Centurion) so yeah, well balanced tanks. Load premium or go home, even for the "weakspots".

[@IntrusiveThot420]

Any chance of a premium light tank video, Quickybaby?

[@janne-pekkaniemimaki5943]

[@ondrejmachut244]

Great video, once again a tier 8 German tank with some sort of survivability, so needed these days. Anyway, If you guyz love Chinese light tanks same as me and try to climg up that WZ line, take your time to vote for WZs to be at the top of the tree next month!!

[@bryguysays2948]

I have everything researched but the top gun on this tank. Stock gun struggles against tier 9 and 10 but can be devastating to lower tiers, just don't get surrounded.

[@mrcultus3042]

I personally enjoyed the VK 100.01 quite a bit. The Mäuschen however... Not so much. The turret simply has too many weak spots against the penetration on the teir of tanks its expected to fight.

[@alexhelmacy5087]

my favorite tanks so far.

[@海岛西北风]

chocolate，3 t26e4 only shows side armor, a kill all team means it is a great replay.

[@iandms1160]

the penetration advantage is only about 20mm on standard rounds of 128 over 105

[@iandms1160]

personally I have gone back and forth between the two guns but currently use the 128, my performance between the 2 seem similar

[@kamikazepiloot100]

Lol "only"

[@robertharvilla4881]

Couldn't the T28 use HE at the end and chop him down without worrying about the pen? He had the HP to just go for it if he could use HE, right?

[@AChannelNuclearrambo]

Hi. So what gun is on this tank after all? 105 or ... the other one?

[@Comet-vm9nl]

Hello! I'm currently going for the Soviet medium line, and I would like to know your opinions on which tank to get. The T-26A, Obj.140, or the 430. Thanks

[@hardstajler1387]

Zong Liu test them on the supertest server :) i prefer the 430 because i want to be able to brawl somewhat, the 140 is better for 100-200m longer ranges than the 430 though. 430 tends to dunk some shells from time to time and needs to be closer. both are great, gonna catch em all! :)

[@karlheven8328]

[@JohnDoe-fv3vs]

Problem I have with the Vk 100.01 is the speed. Some battles that are heavily focused to one side the VK can shine if you pick the proper side from the start. When things don't go as planned and heavies don't go the standard heavy route... you're out of luck because VK is to slow to reroute. Those battles happen quite often in WoT. Also if you procrastinate and wait for things to unfold, you're in a similar problem, you can't get to the conflict quick enough to be viable enough to help your team before they're destroyed. A top speed of 20 kills this tank for me... its all or nothing when picking your area to fight in... if no one shows up you're deadweight your team.

[@3AMJH]

I never get the people who despise the VK 45.02 (P) Ausf. A. It's my favorite tier 8 German medium tank. Oh, and this VK is OK with the Ausf. A's 105mm gun, but gets way better with the 128mm, imo.
