The Soviet T-44-100 is a very fun tank to play, it's a lot like the T-54 but is at a lower BR and has a faster reload rate. The APHE shell is very satisfying to use, but your teammates might not be so dependable. I just hope Gaijin don't raise its battle rating.

The solution, have 2 nations and ditch when uptiered, I make up for it by taking 1.7 tanks to 4.7 5.3 6.0, I mean if they didn't want me doing it, they wouldn't allow it.

The T-54/55 has a cramped enough turret that's hard enough to reload in, and it was designed for the 100mm gun. I can't imagine trying to reload in a smaller one.

@@gammafox5431 it's really not. I have like 200 games with it and about 2.5 kd, it's certainly the best of the chieftains. You should play it like a heavy tank, take it in downtiers and avoid taking it in uptiers. In downtiers many tanks can't pen your ufp and turret, while you easily pen most things. Your lfp is pretty weak tho, so better to play hull down. Also at 8.3 it's mobility isn't that bad, gets the job done.
Always love these videos. Commentary is funny to listen to, the balance of action (killing players) and planning (flanking etc) is perfect; keeps you entertained without drowning you in action. Same goes for the edits; enough that it’s funny, but scarce enough that it doesn’t become a borderline slideshow of popular templates over content. ML Spooks
May I ask for any Italian tank of the 7.7 lineup? 🥺 R3 T106 FA, M-47 (105/55) or OF-40
I feel the constant uptier struggle. No matter what br I play I get mostly .6/7-1.0 uptiers. It only started about 3 months ago but it's had been fairly consistent. Probably closer to 75% if games at uptiers. But it has made playing at tier feel like a dream so that's a plus I guess.
