I've been really digging JoJoJacky's streams lately. He's WGLNA player that is calm and he almost always talks through what he's doing and why he's doing it. Obviously, Overlord Prime is also a good choice for the same reasons, plus he usually makes me laugh out loud at least once per stream.

If you just want to see the best possible gameplay - regardless of language - you should be watching Stanlock (RU), _NIDIN_ (RU), and SmyleeRage (ENG). Stanlock, in particular, is freakishly good at the game. He has 5275 DPG in the E50M over 45 games. That's insane.

havent watched jojo but the other ones are too normie (or not english)RU gameplay dont matter to me the point of a stream in my opinion is to be the most unique retard you can be and most people seem to have the same stream layout or same in game mods /flat personality that make it not worth watching followed jojo he seems decent enough from the 20 seconds i watched a vod

ended night with rank 13 ..moved up 3 spots ez (arty points tonight) also 1 chevron from another point on 261 also just kidding nothing about this is ez and im waking up and stupid times just to keep doing it everyday :sludgepal:

Having seen Wallhacks for the first time during the last big tournament, I don't think I'm far off in saying that he might be the next guy to die while playing WoT.

I don't think I'd heard of him before Turmoil mentioned him; what's up with him? You think he's gonna OD like Poshybrid?

HFX posted:

If you are looking for someone to learn from, I recommend ZevenNA. He can be a bit flat, and repeats the same things over and over, but he's very good about pointing out what he is observing and why he is doing certain things.

We should get Hellsau high one day and record him pointing out why many places in maps while they may work sometimes are sub optimal. Examples: Southeast in Westfield, river road on Abbey, beach on Overlord, etc.

"What is the strength of your light tank? It is not your gun!" "Know what you are afraid of!" :3:

Also, Hellsau would be a fantastically entertaining streamer to watch. :allears:

It is an HT No IV with a radio change. Good yes, OP no. The important part here is the BIA crew. Unfortunately, the Germans only have two T10s that require a 5 man layout, the PZ VII and the E50M. Your call if you want to expend them on a bad heavy tank or an lackluster medium.

The PZ VII is bad but the good thing is it isn't that popular so sometimes people dont know how easy it is to pen the cheeks.

Because Ranked Battles were specifically designed to encourage lovely play. Even Wargaming's statements about Ranked shows that the players who intentionally sabotage their team to try to ensure a top 3 on a loss are playing the game mode correctly.

So I opened a ticket about one of the mountain goat locations that completely breaks the map (Fjords in this case) as it effectively gives the North complete control of the middle of the map and you can't spot the light tank spotting you and shooting you. I have been informed this is working as intended. Since this is working as intended, I can only assume that all avenues of data being sent to the client are working as intended and if I was to use any of that extra data it should be perfectly okay!

The changes on Supertest for the BatChat 25t are pretty large nerfs. The BatChat loses its 105mm to make the top gun the 100mm. It'll take about 2 seconds longer to dump a clip into someone and you're doing an average for 150 damage a clip less. Not to mention slight nerfs to standard ammo pen and a massive nerf to premium ammo pen.

You can just put the 100mm on it right now if you want a bad gun, rather than waiting for Wargaming to force you to use it.

lol yeah that Airfield game was great because I never left there and did more damage than our STRV and 263 while also bouncing damage and spotting tanks for those TDs, and also got a Chevron. At least I'm honest about it. The other players could have tried to win, but I've pushed up north enough times to know that your teammates aren't teammates. In another match on Airfield I had an STRV sitting where our 263 was this game. I went up north, started brawling, and they had TWO tanks sitting straight up in the brawl area shooting down on me while the STRV literally didn't fire a shot at them. It was absurd. There's no reason to put yourself out there and assuming your teammates will be useful. Just get your top 3 and bail.
