It's weird how my attention snapped onto your videos. Even with a few thousand subs, these videos feel professional, and I really enjoy them. Will you also cover other tier IX tanks or just the German tech tree? I'd love to see a tank guide about the tier IX Japanese Type 4 Heavy, as I haven't seen anyone provide a useful guide for it.

So glad I found your channel. Been a QB guy for years and nothing against him but I’d literally never heard him mention track health and then your first vid I watched showed me how important it is, especially at higher tiers. Kinda shameful how hidden WG keeps a lot of the meta elements of the game.

It's funny. Two days ago I grinded the E50 and 1 day later you post this great video 👍

"I can't believe It's the same tier as me." You sounded (quite rightly) very offended mate :D

Nice guide Max as always! also don't forget to train your driver with Controlled Impact perk to maximize the ramming damage!

You make the best guides man. I've already learned a lot of things. I like how you explain in detail why you do things. When watching other channels they often just say "I'm gonna go here, do this" like it's obvious and it's hard to understand as a new player.

Still forever thankful i watched your Jagdpanzer E 100 guide. Noone except you says you should take the Reverse speed field mod over the track repair one. Its not that much repair time difference but 4kmh reverse is hella decisive when peeking corners in the city then falling back. Also, had a funny game on Steppes where i managed to Ace Jageroo after 1100 games finally XDDDDD Nothing TOO special, just 6700 dmg and 1800 assist aka 8500 combined and 3 kills in a tier 10 mm. I've already had countless 7k dmg games and all and had a one 8k dmg game but was always somehow 50 entire exp away from it, even with 8k freaking damage and like 500 assist. Then i saw a guy do only 5k dmg 0 assist and he aced it. Like Ace in this tank is soooo RANDOM bruh. Also guys, Jageroo can easily do massive damage if you play with a measured mind. Dont expose to the entire team obv and try to get a sneaky shot at the enemy. Denying them from peeking an important area is also good. I was simply Lucky with the rng and the enemies on Steppes were dominating the non heavy line but my single medium was holding em off so i just switched lines and just wiped em 1 by 1 lmao because i was lucky enough they were peeking 1 by 1 and uhh... You cannot trade with a Jagdpanzer lmao. It was the BEST feeling helping oit my med by putting 1177 damage of sheer dominance into the enemy M 60 leaving him at sub 200 hp for my team to finish him off. Then i highrolled another M 60 and he died lmao. Then i penned MVY twice for his entire hp ahahahaha. Then i just killed enemy arty, casually blocked FV hesh with my lower plate (very lucky btw lmao) and showed dominance against an E5 and some other tank. THEN I DIED TO GREEEED against leopard cause i was 200 hp XD and wanted that shot but alas he was well aware that a wild Jagdpanzer was climbing from behind the hill XDDDDD I could've gotten a shot if i was slightly more patient i guess but im glad it didnt cost me an Ace. For those wondering i had 1097 exp and the treshold was 1094 but a few days ago it WAS 1097 exp indeed lmao so yeah, extremely glad my greed didnt cost me an ace lmao

Thank you for this! People always say how good it is but did not know how to play it.

I love the explanation of thinking you give. You play a little like chess trying to get people seen and taken if they move and not moving into a place where you are seen or taken. Great education. Cheers. Alex.,

Love your content max. keep it up

E50 is just the most versatile medium you can get at T9 or in the entire game. The gun is amazing and the armor hold up quite nicely at its tier. Which means you can brawl or snipe. Depending on the situation. Having a nice mm you can just bully the enemy T7s. In a way not many other mediums can. With the introduction of hardeing this works even better. Depending which hardeing you use you get 240+ more hp. Not to forgett. This ~240 used to be the alpha on many medium Tanks at T8. And for Progettos it still is. So a Progetto needs one more shot of its clip to kill you. And we all know how common Progettos are in the mm.

Max, you are doing fine work my friend. Fantastic series, these tank guides. Well put together, cohesive, informative. And you are funny af sometimes! Keep it up… and I appreciate your comments as to why you were stopping ‘The Grind’ series, trying to let go of whiny, complainy Max (which we all do, but so few realize, accept and invite change). Tallyho!

I like to pick up this tank its really fun and consistent never had a problem with it. Fast mobility decent armor fast and good gun

Great video. I agree, if you are unwilling to get close to enemy, do not play E50; try Leopard PTA instead. E50 does require a lot of gold rounds to 3 mark, sadly. The armor works if you keep wiggling, otherwise, there are too many weak spots on the turrent regardless which direction you face.

Can you do more coverage of the Centurion AX? I know it is supposedly a good medium tank, but I cannot find any current guides that cover how to effectively play this tank. You covered it as a good tank to play, but I cannot find anything on how to play it effectively. Edit: Thank you for the excellent video, btw! You just convinced me to push up the E 50 M line and get the tier IX and X tanks.

Max, I have a question. Not the right topic, but still. Bought me self a PZVII the other day and a fine metal shoe it is. I am close to the 7th field mod. Now, most have the gut feeling to get the +2 top speed, but my dilemma is between picking nothing or taking the -2 top speed. Reasoning behind it is, that with tier 3 experimental turbo I have on it, I rarely reach this top speed. Mostly it lingers around 36. So the -2 would not effect it that much. But to have +20% crew protection on it sounds very good and since it is good for ramming as well, +15% to ramming protection is also nice, -8% to stun i don't care about, but yeah. I guess I would lose some speed when turning close to top speed, but other than that, I am leaning towards taking the -2 top speed. What are Your thoughts regarding this?

Nice guide. Would prefer at least 3 games but other than that, nice

Love this tank, but I'm not sure if I should go to Tier 10 now since it's pretty much the same thing

Great tank ❤

Noice. The tier 9 polish med, the CS-59 is my current fave. It seems somewhat underated - I think everyone is dead set on getting to the CS-63 quick smart.

Love the E50, tier 9 is so good for mediums

why the aiming circle doesn't change size and is so small

I know it can sound weird, but in muy opnion, Obj 430II is the best T IX, equal with E50 I think ;)

tutorial in crew please my big boy, how can I change commander between the other classes of the tanks etc.

PURE VIBES APPLY!

how you do for get those 200k gold?

For the dpm you can choose other low alpha gun ;)

Do some horrendous tanks like Amx 65t or tvp vtu

Tier 8 penetration level really kills it tho

now that i got the GUP crew i will grind this line

Great tank that works when the enemy doesn't know the turret is made out of cheese.

For me hp turbo rammer works well enough, the gun is pretty accurate

That's a very nice camo u got there, u know where u got it from?

can you review a replay I have??

A like before even watching

i want to like this tank, but i can not make it work. e50m works very well, but for some reason, this does not. for me of course!~but ramming is fun. i have a ram kill against maus with e50m:)

Most mediums should be played more aggressively than the average player does.

I want to like this tank so much, but the gun just does not work at all for me and it just gets melted by any premium ammo it faces at tier 8 and above. Also, that Char was incredibly unlucky to roll low-pens on that clip, even at that angle the turret armor is only like 250mm. I would not want to take that gamble

👍

I know I'm weird but I have much better luck in E50M... Not being set on fire with every other shot to lower plate makes a huge difference imo

I don't mind the non-live commentary, but I think I would prefer a few less pauses. Maybe try to keep from pausing the game to talk more than once or twice per battle. Good video though

APPLY!

it's a HT against LT and MT against HT

So, I used to crush it with the E50, and then I got E50M, and yeah, it's not great at Tier X.

If I like the E75, but want something more flexible, this is good, eh?

Ahh I see, you are practicioner of I Ching wisdom, " sometimes less is more and sometimes the best action is no action at all ." xD

88mm is the way

My most hated tank in the game, no matter what I try I just can't make it work :(.

Wish your vids were higher Res mate... 🙁

first!

when are the developers at wg going to stop being trash and fix the major issue in this trash game, prem ammo needs to be cut in damage per shot or removed. THe developers like the trash players in this game that spam full premammo have killed the tactics and skill out of this game,

The best and THE BASED

also i recommend playing with 8.8cm gun, monster DPM and super accuracy, but its challangeing to play
