TragicLoss: If you were wondering what I spent lugging around in tanks all weekend for Aquino... here you go! 
 You can find the live stream of my POV on the World of Tanks NA Twitch or YouTube Channel. 

Einzelganger7: It seems like this time it has double barrel, now it is basically like the 128mm Zwilling anti air platforms.

Einzelganger7:  It was a hybrid gasoline-electric engine consisting in two power cores, the funny thing is that it allowed the Tiger Porsche and Elefant to go at the same speed backwards and forwards, it is a shame they never made this feature in the game.   

TeriyakiTanker:
I now use them for upcoming tank lines that I know about.  So I am making sure I have enough American blueprints for the new heavies.  Earlier this year you could turn them in for crew books and zero skill BiA crew so if you are set for future tank lines you could pick them with that in mind.

TeriyakiTanker:
If it isn’t your place to comment then why are you commenting?  Obviously was on purpose and the fact that a community contributor, you, is coming on here and acting like it isn’t to defend your clan mate is certainly disturbing in and of itself.

Einzelganger7: Maybe because it uses a hybrid engine, have you tried to use that consumable with the Tiger Porsche?

Jaguarz:  Im sorry for all the poor purchasing that you have done in your life......

Einzelganger7: Indeed, my guess is during the Christmas season.

Jaguarz:  A rare justifiable ban from wargaming, how odd.... Maybe dont try baiting people, you wont be missed in game chat

Jaguarz:  because you dont have eyes in your [edited]or cameras on every corner? If your viewports are hidden why should you get xray vision?

Draschel:  Understanding, starts by being better. You aren't being better. I can't help you if you don't try.You can make all the claims you want. But not playing better, is a physical obstruction blocking you. 

Draschel:  I have not played artillery since pre-9.17. So my numbers do not reflect what artillery averages today. So my numbers are void, and don't mean anything.The best of players, we are talking about 11,000 PR people, commonly hate artillery as being something horrifically unbalanced. Sure, they know of things to mitigate artillery damage, but that doesn't change their notion on what artillery is and does. You said it yourself. If greater players operate and exceed within a game and its ruleset, but aren't there to preach and enforce the ruleset, whats the problem? There is no problem. War gaming employees and programmers make changes, not great or bad players. And war gaming, historically, moves on artillery as the single most often altered/nerfed class. Why is that? Ask yourself that. But whats not addressed, is the leaving out of people that just perform better, know better, know more. If generally what we see in population trends, the better a player performs, the more angst towards artillery they show, and more unbalanced they think it is - what does that tell us? By the way, you are a perfect example of what I described earlier. I just looked into it, for the first time. I find it hilarious, the irony. You see, you perform rather poorly in light tanks, mediums, heavies, tank destroyers. I can't say as to why, but I have hunches. Yet you step in an artillery, and HP point per HP point ratio, you perform far better. Far more contributory. Why is that? Again, I cannot say with certainty, as to 100% correctness, but again have educated hunches.  Play better, and understand. Don't? Well no one is forcing you to. But it means not understanding. The choice is yours. 

Draschel: Talk to  Tasty. He loves IS4 I think it is at least better than ST-II What I don't understand is the lowered accuracy. Even with E100Buffed the dispersion stats, aim-time....but then club accuracy?  lol  Give it 180 LFP, make the UFP 160, 35 ammunition, and restore the 0.38 accuracy

Draschel: Make artillery only playable in Redshire,  prokhorovka,  malinovka,  murovanka, westfield.Make artillery 10vs10 only,  only playable class in these::  arty. 10 artillery vs 10 artillery.They aren't broken anymore. No class gets removed from the game. People keep their stuff.Artillery can remain a playable class and stay in clan wars. Its fine there.  -Fixed-  

Draschel:  You dance around words, semantics, in an attempt to deflect debate. If you want to waste time, that is fine. a great player can score 50 goals season, and try to better himself by surrounding with others that do the sameHe doesn't waste his or her, time with lesser performing players that can't even manage 20 pts a season, nevermind goalsSame with a basketball player, after that 30pts a game. Same with a remarkable chess player who plays at worldly level.These people, are career people, competitive people that are paid for their efforts. Their efforts not easily duplicated by others You won't ever understand, because you are a casual. You can debate, I can debate - there is no change. I cannot understand your camp, because I operate at a different level and not maintaining that is unacceptable.You cannot understand my camp, because you operate at a different level and are care-free, dismissive. So to end this discussion, please, get better. Play at a better level. You will then understand then.I remember arguing the same, 10 years ago. With a gentleman for the SG clan, a big band for early tanks history.I was also bad at a time. I didn't understand this exact same debate. It changes the better, more competitive you get. 

Draschel: part of the problems with the Kran meta in ranked,  is  Kran's anemic nature frequently causing stalemates Kran has very low penetration, 300. A typical heavy would instead have 325 APCR or 340 HEAT. But because Kran has 300, it presents problems and causes stagnancy.So what we get, is alot of tanks staring at each other without chances of advancing and causing damage, because they are bogged down by severely low penThis exact property, is why Kran less used in CW, compared to something like super conqueror, and now Chieftain. Kran has too much difficulty penetrating thingsBut what Kran does have compared to Chieftain and contrasting super conq and 60TP, Kran has mobility. Which means getting to location is fast and easier.  Buff the Kran HEAT pen to 330 or 340 like normal heavies, and Ranked battles will go by much more fluid. And you won't have the stare-downs anymore  

Draschel:  I disagree with alot of what he has to say.Would you rather deal with STB1, Kran, 60TP, Super conquerorOr would you rather deal with 3,200 HP high DPM Maus tanks, 1,400 HE damage Types 5s sitting on corners 200m away tradingWould you rather deal with no weakspot 268 V 4 driving around like mediums, 9 per side? Would you rather deal with chieftains, 279E, 907, 260s? By the way, chieftain is a superior Kran, that just trades in burst damage for better everything elseGetting rid of support castes, like light tanks isn't something new. We see it years already, in team battles, companies, skirmishes. In my opinion, getting rid  (not actually eliminating, just discouraging)  support classes makes the experience fairer. I'd rather take part in ridiculous (K)ranked meta, than have to deal with far worse past examples. Exclusive examples, as not everyone has ridiculous reward Xs     

Draschel:  Artillery aims, in the sense that they reticle in all they possibly can.But artillery, in the sense unlike other tanks, do not have to deal with many things The accuracy is very bad, and chances to strike what intended is lower, probably not even 50%. Tanks on the otherhand have nice accuracy, and typically generate accuracy well over 75%Tanks need to know of armour layouts. It is crucial. For artillery, because they cannot even guarantee 50% hit probability, hitting itself is a challenge. Hitting where you want, is challenge on top of challenge          and because of how artillery HE specified mechanics function, damage is extremely random. While HE is random for tanks, it is nowhere near as random as HE from arty.Tanks need to care about auto-ricochet angles, over-match plates, track + gun hits vs vehicular body hits, actual armour thicknesses, all these things. Artillery do not. Their barring challenge they seek           to at a gameplay level, shot by shot, overcome is simply striking the target. Play better. Get over 52%, for starters. Start doing your HP in damage. When you get to this level, you will see for yourself. You won't need it explained. Enlightenment is something you must seek and obtain. But now, it is meaningless to continue this conversation. You are casual, I am not. Does this matter? No, it does not. I have competition based opinions. You have casual ones. They are different camps.      

Draschel:  I don't use the numbers as a standard. World of tanks NA server population summed numbers serve as a standard. This is a results based driven game. While you may not care about these numbers, the numbers still exist.While you may casually entertain yourself with the game, there are others that competitively compete.While there are no issues with this, it comes into extreme contrast concerning viability in whats said....When people such as yourself present opinions over, well towards things they do not understand to begin with This is nothing new. It has existed for years, decades, generations. Whether you fancy baseball, hockey, american football, american boxing, taekwondo, classical fencing - it does not matter.There are always experts, and there are casuals. Casuals always outnumber experts. Experts are revered, casuals stay casual.I am not saying one group is superior to the other, I am saying one group knows far more and performs greater than the other.Should experts define, boss, enforce populations that participate in whatever said event? No. Not saying that. Just saying that they know more.  

TeriyakiTanker: Of course you can use it in Randoms..... how would you play a tier IX in ranked?

TeriyakiTanker: I think the T-34-1 is the best Chinese medium and in my opinion the best Tier VII medium so you got that.

DeviouslyCursed: Nice biased poll. I made it to Rank 5 of Div 1. Highest I ever bothered going in a Ranked season. 10 v 10 is a big improvement. The Chevron earning seems fair to me. The only reason Ranked game play is toxic is because your position on the team matters. If you want it to be better, it should be more dependent on win, not less. People already play like selfish tw*ts, we don't need more of that. Ideally though, it seems fine the way it is.

DeviouslyCursed:  I hate to tell you this, but lemming rushes (aka wolfpacks) won games when WoT was in beta, and it is still one of the best tactics now (when done right). No map will ever change that.

DeviouslyCursed:  Sure it would, b/c when they add a new map, you only get it about once every 40 games. Adding all nine might mean you get to play one of them once each gaming session.

DeviouslyCursed:

DeviouslyCursed:  All hail Sir Karen (the White Knight)! Hailing from the Kingdom of Paranoid-a-lot!

Draschel:  Getting a bit off track. I am not debating, that the coffee is too hot. In this case, chrysler, Patriot, thunderslow purchases  I am debating, that they sold me cheapo grain extract with cellulose, imitation coffee. Instead of coffee Get rid of this hidden stats. This is 2021. Just say good bye to it. Let people make educated purchases? 

Draschel: When you say, "post your stats so we can see"But then allude to yourself, your posting account doesn't mean anything because you play another account.....Do you know how that sounds, looks? Read it again. When you say, "post your stats so we can see credibility"Then see someone, in this case 7,900 PR nearly 3 times your performance, also disagreeingAnd then you flat out ignore saying anything about credibility, but jump to another excuse......You see where this is going? I am not putting any words on paper. But very suspect attitude. So, with me entirely out of the picture, I am very, very very very very very inclined to listen, agree to someone like Bavor,7,900 PR and credible. Than you, not anywhere close to that and not credible. 

Draschel: Throw up your Skoda 56 vehicle video?How about the ferdinand one. See for yourself?  How about this. Why is it, that a CC can openly start rambling on in  in-game chat, insulting his team in a dickermaxIs this the very representative individuals WG seeks? Probably not. If you wish for respect from others, viewers - you must first seek to be respectful

Draschel: You may -THINK- I am a negative jack-in-the-box here to pick apart your threads all the time.Don't. I am not. I have wisdom, to not sully it towards other people and their attempts at trying to get better.I provide sound advice, usefulness. I don't lead people astray with extremely unsatisfactory, outdated opinions.AMX50B, while thinly armored, is extremely fast. It has fine DPM, burst damage combined with DPM, gun depression, gun handling, flexible APCR ammunition.While it may be difficult to play, not be corner choice like STB1, Super Conqueror, 60TP, or Krannie it by no means is the worst, like terrible fat meatballs Maus, Type, Panzer K VII just get turned into plump, meaty damage, in a premium ammo infested mode. Not only that, no flexibility in their size, slowness and for your information, miner and treeburst, just above my so called flagrant commentary, pretty much posted rather disagreeing opinions to yours as well.   

Draschel:  I am not allowed, per rules to insult you.But I am allowed, to freely comment.I am constructive, pertinent. Breaking no rules. What good does posting from a main account mean for you anyway?Tastypastry visits your threads all the time and says, well.....you know what he says.And that is just one example. There are hundreds more. uberdice?What do you have to say then? You just place them on ignore. So.....please don't say please to me. Thanks.   

Draschel:  I disagree.He plays moderate level, at best. And has extremely cringe things to say.Like Emil 1951 is better than Skoda 56.Or saying ferdinand is an effective tank destroyer.He doesn't help people. He leads them astray.  

Draschel: You were just arguing with Bavor a day ago? An individual gigantically more proficient than you, in every facet.  As I said, it does not matter. You argue because, for the sake of arguing

Draschel:  It won't matter in the slightest. You have been told that 100 timesSecondly, you lead off with a hypocritical argument saying how you play is from a different account. People who have 9,000 PR who regularly post, you dismiss them.It won't matter. You say whatever you wish to say. Think whatever too. 

Draschel: if I had the choice?Would I want the many tanks, with more powerful engines out there than how they were supposed to be retailed, like defender? Skorpion G? Caernarvon AX? T3485M? Pudel? Or would I rather not have that bonus, because I already get what I paid for as per *ingredients list* but instead not be cheated with paying and not getting performanceI can live with not having the first. But hate being scammed by the second. 

Draschel: Think of it like this. The McDonalds establishment does have a published, digital and hard, copied menu with ingredients list and nutrition.  People are entitled, provided it, Etc.If I walk into McDs doors, and order a quarter pounder, large fries, large vanilla milkshake - and pay for it I am not supposed to be presented, in an opaque brown (M) labelled paper bag so I cannot find out until I sit to eat.....a quarter pounder moldy bun with a normal mcdouble beef patty, 1/4 ounce cheese slice not 1/2, only ketchup - no pickle or onion, my milkshake 3/4 full not *full*  half mix  and my large fries simply in a large fries red carton.....but only the amount of a small fries. And the food is cold. You see where I am going here? This is no different, a place of business where something is purchased. And you aren't getting what you are supposed to be.  

Draschel:  Hard to make informed decisions if outer sources need time to truly test things out.I don't buy things for more of a bargain than what they are worth. That isn't the complaint.The big complaint is not getting what it is supposed to be. What you paid for 

TeriyakiTanker:
No you didn’t, three rings on a German tank is a single mark of excellence.
