Did you just say... Spagetto?

That T54E1 rams while screaming "JUSTICE REIGNS FROM BEHIND!!!" lmao

That shell hit my face 11:17

"oh no our shell misses the Spagetto" :-D

Prologue: This is footage from the recent swedish tech tree showcase that is crowned by the Kranvagn. The short history of Kranvagn in WoT: First of all - The tank was op on test server so the wg did the right thing and nerfed it. It was nerfed in three areas Increased long and short reload Frontal upper hull - down from 110 to 90 and last but most significant - HP/t ratio down - from the monstrous 20+ hp/t down to 15+ hp/t The tank had a few things that was suppose to balance it in it's pre-nerfed state: This tank has apart from tier 10 light tanks the absolute worst gun at tier 10 if you include the ammo (same ammo as the Emil2). The APCR for standard has a rather low (but not crazy bad) 252mm pen and a shell velocity of 1000m/s wich makes it as slow as a regular AP shell. APCR has only 2% of armor angle reduction istead of 5% as standard AP has, so frankly it's just a bad AP shell that you puke out. The HEAT ammo on the tank has a low pen of 300 mm and something in between 850-900m/s shell velocity. It also came with the all time low HP of 2000 for a heavy tank. Very slow turret traverse speed of 25 degrees/s These things remained after nerf and with lackluster HEAT pen it will make you struggle when confronting enemy heavy tanks because now you have to face them on their terms more often then not (because of mobility nerf). The tank has medium tank HP and since the over all armor is very low in general you're gonna get punished hard by HE and HESH even if they splash on the front of your turret (just below the turret on the front you have a weakspot that is 30mm if i remember correctly). The Kranvagn has a very specific and one dimensional role to play in this game as the ridge line hulldowner facing the enemy ONLY in front of you - i would say inside a cone of 20 degrees to either side of your gun (or they will HEAT pen the cheese-made side of your turret). This is THE ONLY thing this tank does good and because of all the "buts" and "don'ts" you suffer from simply makes this tank kind of hard to play Epilogue: To me this tank simply gives up too much to have this gun depression and this frontal turret armor. The footage above are two dream scenarios for the swedish heavys and they don't show you the every day fight in these tanks. Most of all they require patience with the risk of beeing too passive and therefore throwing the game. My most honest suggestion to the average player is to stay away from these tanks in WoT. Edit: Holy crap i forgot to thank you QB for content and stuff so i better get it in here! Thank you QB for all your content on youtube and twitch. Happy Holidays master tanker! Btw some of us still miss mr Plant

“Merry Christmas” QB: Oh shut up

They are so good hull down, people no longer shoot at them. I remember when it first came into the game, it was nothing to get 2k bounced a game. The only problem I see is some tanks get a tier 10 gun at tier 9, the Kranvagn gets a tier 9 gun at tier 10. I do love these tanks though.

The emil 1’s turret is absolute cheese. If you are in a tier 9 tank and some tier 8’s you pen the turret like its toilet paper. On flat ground you need around 230 pen to get throught which is a reasonable amount of pen to get at tier 8. And you almost never find one hulldown because you only need a glimpse of the side armor and you overmatch it with literally every gun at tier 7+.

I heard something like "Spaguetto" 4:03 xD I love those Swedish heavies.

"Justice from behind" - QB 26 Dec 2018

I enjoyed the quote "When everything wasn't a low profile Soviet medium or a heavy" Those "Objects" and Chinese "heaviums" are without a doubt the meta of today. The maps and hull down positions are perfectly tailored to fit these kind of tanks.

Hey QB, When is there going to be a new Top 10 episode? :)

"i'm pushing a lot of experience in my Emil 1" (fires 15 prem rounds in one game)-QB 2018

The Emil II is my all-time favorite tank...never had more fun grinding through a vehicle before. Even though I have the Kranvagn, I still play the Emil II far more often.

These swedish tanks are great but really situational. They are great for defending ridge lines and stopping the enemy while your team is there to support you. But if your all alone and the enemy knows your reloading . And they are actually competent enough to know you are reloading. Oh boy, your gonna have a really bad game. However catch someone out of posisition while you can reload safely. It is an absolute pleasure. As a midly competent player (51% +). I have to say. The Emil-1 for me was absolutly great. Finished it with a winrate of 62%. The Emil-2. Played a few games fully stock and barely got 40% yet after 20 games. Still these tanks are really fun and I would anyone recommend them. Also keep up the great content. You, circonflexes, claus and many more got me from 45% winrate to 51%. While still having fun. (most of the time. WG please fix low tier MM. ) My brother recently started playing. Got to the KV-1. And now faces seal clubbers all the time playing E-25s, and Lefh's. While he has got a fully pimped crew from the winter event facing a Lefh EVERY game is not fun. At least he gets revenge on them rushing and killing them in his T-50-2. ( his account is old but he never played on it lol)

The Emil 1 has a got a good turret, but when i play it and use the gun depression, tier 8 tanks with gold can penetrate it easilly and the tier 9 tanks can pen the turret with normal ammo. I dont even want to talk about the tier 10 tanks....

I love the Swedish heavies...then again, I spent a lot of time in French heavies so when I heard about tanks with great gun depression, hard hitting clip guns and more armor, I guess it was kind of a guarantee that I would gravitate towards them.

I've been playing my Emil recently trying to grind through to the Emil II and Kranvagn. I am now enjoying it far more than when I first started playing it. I think I've learned more about auto-loaders in the interim and have become more comfortable playing them now than compared to a couple of years ago. It is nice to know that they may be more effective going forward. thanks for another good video. Have a happy New Year.

Very clever to release this as they're on the On-Track event. Looking forward to grinding these out myself. The only drawback I see is that gun elevation reminds me of the 50 120 for the higher tiers.

Good video QB! I do love how you never seem to have more than 1 arty in any battle and that arty never seems to target you. Most of your battles have NO arty in them, what luck! I always get open maps with 3 arties...so fun.

Very timely video - just finishing my grind with the Emi 2 so looking forward to gaining the Kravagn. Have you seen the new 'meet the modules' newcomers info section now hidden away in the game under Combat Intelligence. Another step forward to ticking off your wish list of changes. Happy New Year when it arrives - thanks for sme great and well thought out content. :-)

Love your videos man, so much knowledge to give others 👌

I love them as they currently stand, if a little lack luster on the pen. Overall, my favorite line to play, third line in total after t57, Foch 155, then this line.

I loved the Emil and Emil II as well as the Kranvagn. They all have high statistics for me compared to most of my other tanks and I'm excited for the "buff" that the Kranvagn might be getting in 2019.

You made an excellent point about how the game has become low profile Soviet heavy or medium tanks or clones.

Quackybaby play the duck!

Quickybaby’s videos out here saving me from this horrible train ride. P.S playing on NA server so these are the “on track” tanks. Up to the Emil 1 and omg it’s so god like. Best stats for any of my tanks by far

I love the Emil and Kranvagan, my favorite heavy tanks in the game.

QuickyBaby do you believe that the t10E5 american heavy needs some improvement to keep up like it counter part the patton got a little while back or do you feel it is in a state good enough to keep up with the other heavies.

I love them, adds another play style.

We had less, but more versatile tanks and that was interesting. And I loved tier 8 lights with +3/-1 MM. I loved that I had to work for it to get a GG

I’m actually looking forward to the changes for the Kranvagn. Here’s hopes that it comes back into the meta! Same for the E-100!! Might work on the Swedish heavies now!

I loved the line. Tier 5 and 6 were pretty nice, Leo with the big gun is my favourite tier 7 and the tier 8 and 9 were amazing . Getting kranvag was a little bit disappointed since you didnt feel any special advantages compared to the Emil II only a full tier 10 mm Also for a f2p veteran it was great to grind and not painful like other tech trees(the a5 one)

Just unlocked the Emil 1, absolutely love it. Nothing sweeter than slamming all 4 shells into some poor caught out foe.

Thank you! For all the hints.

Haven’t played this game in forever and I just woke up

I played a game with the kranvagn, in 2 minutes I was on a ridge line, having 2 JPZ E100, grille 15 + a bunch of heavy and medium tanks, all spamming gold at me, I bounced 6800 damage in under a minute. That's the potential of these tanks. I would not say that the line is forgotten, you will see one of them from time to time. I usually platoon with my friends with 3 Emil II and its fun when you get on the right map in the right situation, the enemy team really doesn't know how to defend against us. It's a one trick kind of tank but I really think that it is not that hard to learn how to play it, Sure it require skill and knowabout how to play the tank effectively but I find it a lot more easy then other one trick tanks. Drive to a ridge line, target a tank and make sure you only expose your turret, Fire. Maybe drive back to reload but if the situation is under control and they are not shooting HE, Why not just get more damage blocked in the battle.

5:22 Quicky likes justice from behind

No 3-marks on the Emil and Emil II? You're slacking Scrubby-Baby. LOL Well played. They're very situational, but super fun when in a favorable position.

They are well balanced but I do feel like they need some love with the buffs on soviet tanks. Also I wonder if any of the unique features will end up on the new med line like auto loader or armour.

I never see games like this with the HE, HEAT, HESH and arty spam.

Now if your up close in personal with these tanks not by choice but you haft to what would be the best play of action do you continue with the close combat or should you try and pull away to get a longer range of play? Or what

I quite enjoy these high tier Swedish heavies. My only complaint is that I wish there was an option for them to have a single shot gun. Even if they made the DPM identical, in many cases I'd rather just use a single shot. But I understand that is without a doubt part of their balance.

Other than that, Very fun playstyle and I’m happy to see a video about the swedish heavies because I mIsSeD tHe TwItCh LiVe about them

i love them cant wait! so close!

"Justice from behind" ... I see what you did there !

I think its the psychological effect of the turret form that deters people from shooting the Emil 1 because it looks similar to a Kranwagn's... Pavlov effect and all ;-)

When 2 uploads in a row are from Westfield you know there isn't enough maps in wot :D

"justice from behind".... Right QB

5:24 justice from behind :D

I love how QB nods when the video starts :))))

To this day I am still waiting for that "Thank you m'am" 2:54

"Justice from behind" heheh ! :D

I've recently purchased the Emil and I really do not understand why these tanks are so uncommen. It is an amazing tank actually with a pretty good autoloader that can put in some serious work

I had always thought the Emils and Kranvagn should've been classed as medium tanks. I know that the designs were considered heavies by the Swedish Army when they were in development, but their size is more akin to other nations' mediums and their (lack of) hull armor isn't very heavy-like either. And classing them as mediums would've made the progression easier given that the line leading up to them are a bunch of mediums and until next month there aren't going to be any Swedish heavy premiums to use as crew-trainers for the top tier tanks.

Love your vids❤️❤️

I'm actually excited about the new Swedish medium tank line. I don't know if they will be successful but I don't think they will be soviet clones.

these tanks are exactly what the game needs more off, they have this special playstyle you don't get in any other tree, not OP but still awesome to play

Enters and joins the lemm train and the tank is so crazy on point he dipped into gold since the beginning.

I love the sweidish heavy line the krangvn is a god hulled down

I have researched Kranvagn last weekend and than I have found that it would be buffed :3 it is amazing tank and if it will be buffed I hope it will be premium ammo penetration or turret traverse speed or horse power/ton.

0:46 Thanks for demonstrating why the continual flooding of autoloaders is bad

1st game gg, lmao that finish and tanks in those last frames. 2nd gg.

Struggled with Emil 1's gin pen in the 357 +2 mm. Recently bought it back after the changes to the mm and I am having more success.

How do i always whatch your vids minutes after releasing xD

Now, I've got your T-shirt... Looks nice, colourful, good fabric, tnks...

Good timing since this line is the "On Track" on the NA server. ("top of the tree" for you across the pond)

Does anyone else get excited when he uploads then figure out its not the modpack ?

i like the emil, just grinding out the tanks in the tech trees so i can get them out of the way :P

Some of my favorite moments are in the Emil II, hiding my lower hull and bouncing JgPzE100 gold rounds. Easiest steel wall of my life lol

QB, I see u are already using ur mod pack. Do u see a problem in publishing it even if it might still be in beta status?

"Hull down god" .... Bonced twice in 2 games.... Clickbait? Maybe Hotel? Trivago

The Kran is really great in some clanwars situations.. the burst damage and strong turret is really effective when you need to be able to step in and throw some damage to change the outcome of a brawl. No its not great in all.. but there are times. 277 Isnt the best.. but there are times the fast Russian is needed.. sometimes the IS-7.. sometimes the Super Conqs. The Kran has a place at times. A rebalancing will be nice if they bump it a little.

“Gets a little bit of justice from behind and finished me off” Alrighty then

I like the Swedish tanks. The strv74 is fun. Liked the Leo at T7, meaty gun on that! The prem T8 is very nice, although a Centurion, but nice tank. The Emil I was not the best tank, in my opinion and like you said, VERY situational. I feel the Emil II is a bit more "fun" or competitive. The gun on the Emil I was a bit lacklustre. Can't wait to unlock the "mobile crane" at Tier X! Now bring more mediums Wargaming!!!

Emil+ Westfield map = perfect combination

Quicky, do a comparison between the TVP 50/51, and Škoda T 50, and the Italian meds

Can you talk about VK4502A or VK 4502B? I’d like to say it is the most underrated line.

Played emil I,II and Kranvagn. Emil I was fun, Emil II gun handling was POS, Kranvagn is surprisingly fast, similar problem as emil II

suits my play style of heavies i ll start grinding ASAP

Ohhh!!! An old outro...haven`t seen that one in a long time...cool "easter egg"

Hey Will, i really like your vids and they helped me a lot understanding this game and becoming better over time. I like the Emil, because i like the variety of tanks and because of all his strengths and weaks that come along. Regarding your last vids i ve got to say that i think your criticism is very influencial among other wot youtubers and that kind of annoys me. All that WG-bashing about Pay2win and that so many tanks are overpowered doesnt seem to be right. All that content we use has somehow to be produced, right? It still is a very exciting game which i love to play and personally im pretty satisfied with many changes that happened during the time im addicted to it. Nevertheless i want to thank you for your awesome material and hope you continue to do so. Have a nice day and see ya on the battlefield (i d love to have you in my team sometime) :) Sincerely, Stefan

I like the Emil, Emil II and Kran.. but, they are only really useful/functional on very VERY selective maps.. which is why a lot of people don't play them.. if you are in an open area, without the cover/hill points to use, the tank is a .. essentially free kill.. where the hull will not bounce squat, and the long clip reload means, if you are in the open, you are dead without being able to retaliate.

I was so forward looking towards getting the Kranvagn, do my major disappointment. I'm not playing again until it gets the major buff it needs, when that will be, who knows.

@ 11:17 I flinched lmfao

Im playing the T32 atm, can u make a vid about the tank?

LOL, only QB get TD's walsing up in front of him in the open :) That never happens to me! However also love my Kranvagn.

the Emil could use an aim time buff but the Emil II and Kranvagn are my favorite tanks in the game tier for tier

11:17, I literally dodged it. :D

Nice video but could you make it complete with the gameplay of the kranvagn? I once tested this guy out on testservers and it was not what i wanted. Well im stuck at the tier7 leo so far

Kranvagn needs a BUFF, it's so weak right now

Justice from behind. Best kind of justice!

Everytime i play my swedish heavy tanks there are 3 arties on both teams and i get utterly anhilated in seconds. But when you dont get focused the tanks are awesome

This tank is a nightmare to deal with on same-tier , especially if you were in a medium/light. Gotta jab that 2 key just to pen a lower plate...

They are the kind of tanks i tought the top tier heavies were when i started playing the game

QuickyBaby, these tanks can still be destroyed so I think they should be called "Hull Down Kings" (hint: DezGamez) or "Hull Down Dukes". Anyway, it is a nice video. Thank you for telling us at least one way to deal with these tanks.

Hi! May i ask what is the best modules for Auto-reloading?

11:16 lol I flinched 11:16

The UDES 03 can go through the Emil's turret with standard rounds
