E8 is actually quite good when up tiered. It has decent pen with gold rounds and it has massive DPM. It has decent mobility and most importantly, a lot of gun depression with strong view range. It allows this tank to be flexible and to handle ridge lines well. E8 can peek and DPM down other vehicles little by little. Its vert stabs also allows it to peek and take a shot without much aiming. It makes a really strong and evasive tank. I did not felt as useless as I feel when up tiered with other tanks.

your dpm is insane, u can farm a lot of damage, has a nice moility and quite good at aiming. I remember my first M class with this baby in a tier 8 matchmaking with 3k damage. this tank shouldn't be in this video. I lost my respect for quickybaby

I've said it before, the big problem with the HE rework, other than zero damage hits, is the fact that they never improved the accuracy or buffed the alternative gun choices. (Example : E2 Sherman 76mm gets 177mm of penetration with gold rounds, but the HVAP M93 should get 239mm... Like the Firefly, Achilles, etc. 177mm is roughly what the pen should be at 1000 meters. Other tanks at the same tier or even lower get accurate, or better than real penetration Meanwhile, the Shermans get arbitrarily balanced penetration, making the alternate guns lackluster at best.) As for accuracy, "Now you have to aim" is a hip statement among certain segments of the player base, but with an aim circle that covers half of the bloody map... Well, it's a crap shoot if you will snipe a cupola, or see your shell whizz off the map and land in War Thunder...

To be fair, almost none of the T5-6 tanks get accurate pen. PzIV's had 140mm starting from the F2 (so the H should have it), the L/70 on the Panther had 198mm pen, not this weird L/100 that's exclusive to WoT, which applies to the VK 30.01H, 30.02D and 30.02M too; the 85mm on the T-34-85 had 148mm pen, Tiger's 88 had 165, so neither the T6 Tigers nor the T7 Tiger are accurate... etc etc Not to mention most guns on the tanks that actually existed aren't even accurate. Tiger 2 was never build with a 10.5, M6 never had a 90mm, IS-3 had the same gun as the IS-2, IS-1 never got the 122mm, only the Super Hellcat had a 90mm, not the "normal" one, Su-100 didn't have a 122mm (why would they even call it the Su-100 and not the Su-122 P that actually had it?), etc etc Long story short, this game isn't accurate anywhere, it doesn't even try to be, and they're not claiming it anymore these days, either. it's all just balance purposes - the T6 shermans just got forgotten and drowned in power creep, because way back with just regular T-34-85's and VK30.02M's and stuff like that, they were pretty balanced and had actual upsides. Not to mention >80% of the vehicles are made up at this point.

Easy8 bad? I do remember when i got it and had to fight IS-4 tank (when it was tier IX) with merely regular ammo. Perhaps that is why it feels so easy for me to play it nowadays. I never considered it might be underwhelming until WG announced they going to buff it. But i guess it's true - the competition on its tier grew and got better leaving it in the shadows and it's just me that didn't notice.

15:00 the KV1S has a really interesting history in game... It started life at tier 6 where fully upgraded it was just a KV-122 Then it was replaced with the "KV-85" which could be set up as a historical KV-85, KV-100, or KV-122. At this time the KV-1S was downtiered to tier 5. IIRC stock it was a historical KV1S but it received access to the S-41 howitzer that one prototype received IRL (which was historically suggested to put it on the IS as well) and a turret which I've never seen any historical records of. Then they brought it back up to tier 6. Not sure what they changed since I stopped playing the game but it doesn't look like they changed much

Can't go around saying it is so important and then ignore it, right?

I absolutely adored my VK 2801 back in the 105mm days. Before the HE changes you were even able to have great games with standard ammo alone. And the innaccurate gun, poor camo, mediocre view range and big silhouette compared to other lights didn't really hold it back because at least it had that heavy-hitting alpha. You were even able to fight well-armored heavies and thus were more like a scouty medium rather than a pure scout. The main problem with the whole package was the good pen on the premium rounds that basically turned it into a fragile KV-1S on speed. The worst part when they took the 105mm was that they didn't give the tank a new (less OP) gun that would've allowed it to perform the same role. A scout gun with good alpha, good penetration and bad DPM & accuracy would`ve made this certainly possible (something like 200 alpha, 160 pen, 1300 DPM, 0.42 accuracy, 2.5 aim time). It would've made brawling with other lights for scouting spots impossible but at least the tank would've kept some of its punch alive.

I remember when this used to be one hell of a tank along the vk3601h… the power creep has arguably ruined this game for many

players spamming always gold are pretty bad players if you ask me.

The win percentage has nothing to do with how good a player is Quicky. Many times the losses are 2 to 3 times more than wins, and even though I am normally in the top 5 of the losing team, their metric doesn’t take those stats into consideration. Hit ratio, and damage per game may be better, but if you’re grinding tech tree tanks, and not just playing the same high tier or premium tanks with macked out crews, there’s no way to truly know a players true skill.

I'm at the point were I am enjoying games that get released "done" (as much as they can be these days) and I can just play them.

Poor Easy8 is basically a prime example of horrid powercreep. It used to be a pretty solid medium on that tier. But at this stage, it is not only horribly outclassed by most other mediums on the same tier, it suffers due to matchmaking as well.

When I had to choose between the E8 and E2 I got the E2 cuz it had better armor and ended up with me having the first and only tank I have 3 marks, really fun tank and easy to play back then.

When I started with the Sherman series you had the option of going further up with the easy 8 or the jumbo. I opted for the Jumbo and therefore never drove the easy 8.

What challenges do you have if you only ever drive the OP tanks on the respective tiers, such as the T67 or the Hetzer.

I never thought that the Easy 8 got such low winrate, i personally find it quite strong since it has the potential, the package is quite strong, even tho the HD remodeling took away a lot of armor, it used to have twice the thickness on the mantlet.

I had a great win rate in my KV 1S when I had it. It was in the high 50s if I remember correctly

The M4A3E8 is a fun tank and I enjoy it, but I did not enjoy 3 marking it. My advice for 3 marking it is to run the 105mm with a good balance of HEAT and HE. Intuition is good to have as a crew skill to allow you to switch shells faster. Knowing when to use what ammo is also important. The 105mm has a very short reload so at tier 8, you can try to use HE to track higher tier heavies and get damage assistance.

So weird to me that the win rate on the E8 is so bad. It is one of my favourite tanks and I sit at 61% win rate with it with 1400 battles

To be fair, the Shermans should have the best dispersion in their class tier for tier, because their guns in WWII were stabilised, albeit only below a certain speed.

Nicely played, T6 is a difficult tier espesh as i always end up fighting Tier 8's :( hehe

Man it hurts me to see how bad the Easy 8 an Jumbo Shermans have become. When the US Medium line came out, me and my friend used to platoon 2x Sherman Easy 8s together and just rush. We almost always died very fast, but it was common to take down 2 or 3 people directly, and support fire from team mates would often knock out 2 or 3 more in the first 2 minutes of the game. Got a LOT of easy, profitable wins that way back in CBT and the initial release of the game.
