A tier 8 light with better stats then the t100lt…
Not to mention better than T-44
Yea, 170/210 pen will do A LOT against Defenders, Chryslers, Mauses and shit loads of other retarded tanks now swarming the battlefields. It is totally so better!
Being better than the T-44 is not hard to accomplish considering how bad it is. That being said I don’t see how this is better since it won’t even be able to pen other T8s reliably.
The T-54 LW is already the best tier 9 light tank with a way too strong turret and magic bounces from the hull. In my opinion, another light tank with the same playstyle and advantages like this one on tier 8 can ruin the balance of the tier 8 light tanks as well.
Light tanks should be highly mobile, but vulnerable to anything. It makes no sense to play a light with no armor in this meta anymore when you can’t outrun, outspot or “outcamo” a highly armored light on the same tier you even struggle to pen reliable due to too strong armor.
Feels strange.
Doesn’t the lttb do that already at tier 8? I remember it having some of the best armor when it was tier 7.
The T-54 LW isn’t that great, certainly not the best since they buffed the 1390.
Renamed T-44 with other stats? Copy paste model? Nice we desperately need more stronk Russian tanks or should I say “tanks” because this clearly never existed
Brand New OP Fake Premium Tank spotted!
Last time that was said, it was about the STG, and on closer examination it doesn’t look that great.
Gun handling is just terrible for a tier 8 medium.
Yet the T71 CMD and or T92 LT have still not be set free. FFS (shakes head)
WG, what are you playing at?
Yet again missing the very important stat that is the dispersion on the move.
We do not have a premium LT high tier to train the Russian crews. There are French, Chinese and German premiums, but we still do not have Americans or Russians.
I actually want to see a T-34 “Raid tank” I read about a while ago. It was supposed to be a lighter T-34 with a projected 72 kph speed limit
WG and its policy to make more P2W russian premium tanks!
How is this P2W? This piece of shit won’t be able to reliably pen other T8s even if it’s firing gold.
0.31 accuracy on a scout with good armor.. who plays mediums anymore?
Another tier 8 premium, lol
