Anyone remember when IS-3 used to be a strong tier 8?

It's funny how the BZ makes strong tanks like Skoda T56 and Obj 703-2 look obsolete.

balance overdose

or an AMX65T

@@juanjodpr nope Skoda is still OP compared to this. it can mess-up anything that throws in it, this one not. watch the IS6 videos of SKill and you see what im talking about.

B: but it is 3 days until Christmas event and lootboxes... we don't have time to rework the tank! A: But it has to be tier 8! You can make it tier 8 , right? how hard that can be?! B: ok...

@@akmens9653 insert "Flork of Soldiers meme"

I love to overmatch that thing with an O-I and see them losing it lmao

His armor got wrecked every game. Name a tier 8 tank heavy tank or TD that skill doesn't do 3-5k damage.

Lol bz176 is easy to destroy

It can, but this bend me over community accepts anything.

It's too late, the tank is already in the game, enough people gambled for it so WG won't nerf it. Truly a terrible addition and makes the tech tree tanks look awful.

@@alanwatts8239 It does seem to be that case that people are willing to accept this kind of bullshit. They tell others "Just flank it."

I left WoT in February. I did my part.

Only thing you can do is overuse it so much en masse that people start massively complaining about it. Like, every Friday a few thousand people just play BZ-176 and nothing else.

Hanlon's razor is an adage or rule of thumb that states, "Never attribute to the balance department that which is adequately explained by the monetization department".

Yep, pen in pretty low 200, 70% get matched with tier X that are hard to pen

You can't balance a Tank witch cost more than 100 or 200 $ in loot box, SO WELL DONE WARGAMING

There is a balance department?

Have to agree. Far too much vodka was involved in the creation of this one.

Yea...Until BZ-meta, at least tier 6&7 used to be somewhat enjoyable...Nowadays wtf to do with this with "low tier sh!tters" when other tier 8s (and quite some tier 9s) struggle against it...

6 and 7 these days is just a lottery whether it's gonna be a bourrasque, a T56, or a BZ that slaps you with 8-900 dmg

​@@laszlopap8271exactly it has more armor than the BZ tier 10 tech tree tank, should've made it only fight tier 7+ or tier 8+ but they only see quick short term benefits When i look at tanks nowadays I can only play or grind the tanks that can stand against the unbalance nowadays, like T29 and T32 or just play arty or sniper TD

@@vcommandarv5916 Or u can simply play no tanks at all :) Watching mr Skill to struggle is still better than struggling myself... :D Working for me PERFECTLY for a year now...

Same, quit over a year ago because of stuff like this. Haven't looked back.

Then you dont need to watch WOT vids, doesnt make sense.

mouile you made the right choice, i came back and regretted it immediately they made the game more addicting but not in a good way. i dont like the game yet i constantly play it every day and it hurts my soul and my blood pressure rises when playing it. its still pay to win after all these years

@@dmitriyzhukov9193 Just because you don't play the game anymore doesn't mean you can't support a content creator. People watch other people do all sorts of content that they've never done in their life because it's entertaining or interesting to them. Saying someone needs to be actively doing what they're watching is a terrible mindset.

Its not just this but also the HE changes that did it for me - more and more crazy op hull down meta was bad enough, but when they made that HE can no longer do any damage to those monsters so you have SOME deterring factor against them even on 250 alpha guns if you aim just right, with the HE change that was not only completely gone, allowing them to dominate the 3-5 corridors every shitmap has, but also made it that HE penetrates screens, so paper tanks which could occasionally block some HE damage with the tracks, gun or gun mantlet and other screens now always take FULL increased HE shell damage... So a nerf to tanks that where already challenging to play due to having no armor, and a buff to the already op hull down heavies and everything with armor! So yeah when that landed i was out and gone

true! +1

Oh I know how to "rebalance" them don't forget to like mah weedios

Same boring and too OP for me and I’m a casual player.

Same. I played maybe 15 games and felt pretty filthy and put it away.

I agree, I play it often but it's so op, and not the most dynamic gameplay (slow tank, long reload), i way prefer playing something like renegade

got 30 boxes. all the low tiers. showed a middle finger and kept my wallet

payed £5 and i love it

Doing the lord work! 😆

I tested in the supertest those heavies with up to 180mm gun. The tier X had more than 1150 alpha per shot and this was scratched, only keeping the stock gun and not the big badaboom tank like in the E-100, making the tank similar to the Obj 705A regarding alpha.

Oh don't worry I know how to "rebalance" them

Kinda reminds me of how they removed gun rammers from italian mediums because they were "too good" but only gave the op premium a fire rate buff to compensate for the lost dpm so they basically gave it a 4th equipment slot

Why so many people Here cry in the comments? You didnt buy lootboxes or didnt Get this tank? Oh, so shame on you. Well, see you in battles, you will be the meat for my BZ.

@@Kaldzi1993 Ah...the 'BZ Compensator'

@@Kaldzi1993 toxic as the game. Wonder why its slowly dieing.

I'm only wondering what's gonna make this tank obsolete in a year - WG gotta keep selling those lootboxes after all

@@cmdrTic Probably an M1A1 w/ depleted uranium rounds.

I think they had it right with premiums in the first few years. The premiums had their credit making advantages in exchange for a larger copula or other liability relative to their tech tree counterparts. Then there was the "Russian Bias" era with tanks like the IS-6 that reversed the weak-spot trend by smoothing them out...remember when that was the OP tank?

nothing will die, they are doing this for years, also nothing will change, just keep waiting for next op prem

I didnt spend any money for more than 1 year now too. The MM is too insane. 3 BZ in a platoon as top tier is just ridicioulus. No money from me.

they lootboxed it not because it was OP, they put it in the loot boxes so they could SELL more loot boxes. It wasn't until so many had gotten it and destroyed the tier 6 - 8 Match Making that they went "hol' up" and went in and got rid of the same guns that were supposed to be on the BZ Heavy Tech Tree in the China faction. The entire line was supposed to get the big boomer BZ-176 guns, but when BZ-176 destroyed the match maker they finally realized their greedy mistake

at least you are not platooning with other bz...

with this thing 3k combined is nothing

Hate BZ-176 check mah weedios don't worry it'll make you smile

They did the same with the progetto prem. Instead of testing it they just nerfed the tech tree line to shit.

@@AetherYes Are you ill?

@@dmitriyzhukov9193 Ju st go 2 My ChánñeI

Sorry for tips/change S..... Fist time use/did not now u can pay that way as well. try it for now lol Waching U for long time bro. Love Ur job lol 🖖

Most of the people commenting have never played it. I only use if for front line to make money. It gets wrecked if you are not careful and they are not spamming gold. My Skoda 56 and Peregrine out perform this thing every single time. Heck, my Skorpion G is way more dangerous than this. They must be planning to sell it again this Christmas and the CC's are prepping the wallet warriors for a big sale.

MOST do.

I got this tank in loot boxes but won't play it, I would feel to sorry for the people I spank.

@@zGJungle Yeah, I mean it's so strong that it isn't really a satisfying experience playing it. It's hard to explain. The soft stats for the gun are awful. The gun just feels sluggish. Sure, it smashes people but I have way, way more fun smashing people in the 50TP pr. or the Bisonte or heck, even the Lowe. The Lowe's gun is very satisfying to use. This thing just feels unenjoyable. Cheers.

​@@zGJungleI would have deleted that BZ-176 if I were you if you don't you better pray I'm not on your team ...

I hate those BZ-176 oh by the way I know how to deal with them just come to me okay

Just the MM shouldnt give him top tier games.

also lately I started playing Rust cause WoT just got REAL annoying for me. All the hard-to-pen tanks and then I join Rust and everything's balanced... :)

Reward and loot-boxes tanks fuck up the game. And like you said they spit in your face because of that. Being their customer for many years.

Best decision ever. I stopped playing in 2017, and never felt like a bad decision! Watching skill sometimes because he s a great guy, but i don t ever get the urge to play myself again
