How to Play Light Tanks - World of Tanks 

"don't die at the start of the game" every EBR clown car ever on my team: *instantly drives right to the enemy and dies*

"In this stage of the battle you want to take RNG out of the battle, and for RNG I mean self-propelled tank" that's god words right there

So run around like a headless chicken? Me in my EBR: *OK!*

saw this live yesterday.. it was intense!

Ever thought of doing a garage tour on your playsforfree account or doing a tips for f2p?

I like these tips, though map knowledge is a massive component. Might be worth making a series of videos covering, for specific vehicle types, the proper positions and avenues of approach. Love your insight regardless tho!!

This is actually very helpful. I’m relatively knew to the game still with only 400 hours and these guides really help. Can you also do a complete guide over all the different ammo types?

I'd like to see some light tank advice in an actual light tank.

Every light i see just yolo and die in like 1 or 2 minutes in the mid of the enemy base

Just got my first tier 10 light tank, the T-100 LT. First few games, top EXP thanks to your tips on your videos!

This was very helpful for me a noob who started Jan 2020. I’m stuck tier 6 getting one shot by tier 8’s still. Wish me luck QB keep it up!

Had a privilege to watch it live. Bloody exciting battle.

How to play light tanks: don’t play light tanks, play wheeled tanks

I usually play LT too. Having playing this game since 2012, I still learnt something from this video. Thanks QB.

this match was epic! to be honest i never expected for that lynx to carry till the end! you are a beast in that game QB!

How to play a LT: Play one with wheels and press W

Thanks for clearing up my gameplay as I am super frustrated with the bismal gun on the T92. Others push me into battle and causing death is not helping. Really, thank you for helping instead of dominating. Good work Quicky. I really appreciate it. Vanessa

Very timely for me, working on the LT-15 mission right now. Thx!

Auto aim is remarkably effective on wheelies, once they turn to straighten out. Especially with an auto loader. On the flip side if you’re driving an EBR it’ll feel like voodoo getting hit 3-4 times.

That was just PERFECT light tank gameplay! Just amazing! Respect Quicky!!!!

How to play lights: have wheels, dont stop

Still doing an amazing job Quicky. I play no more Wot, but still a pleasure to hear and see you. Great player and great teacher. A must listen for new players.

Very nice video and packed full of information, as always! I think you should do such a video for every class in the game. It would really help new players out there.

0:12 technically there are 3 types of light tanks: normal, wheeled and the TKS 20 :))

How to play "wheeled" light tanks

That is a very good guide for playing scouts. And shown in a definitely not a best vehicle in the game. And totally agree on that passive vs active scouting thing. Though on some maps in some situations passive scouting totally justifies itself. Like Prohorovka where using bushes along the railway would allow you to burn top of the hill clean. And then on the other side, slowly pressing through the avenue road using Commanders vision and Bounty optics helps to kill rest of the enemy team. But with that exception, active scouting is both much more exciting and much more productive in this game.

This shows you play superbly.. And I suck!

This is a very nice format. Please do this for all the rest of the classes (med, heavy, td) 😁

instead of vents, the extra cammo provided by the exhaust system will actually be more benifitinal

2012: in 2021 every wot player will be unicum 2021: how to play light tanks

Most skilled game I've ever seen. Bravo!

I was on the stream . ONE OF THE BEST GAMES EVER.

3 marking the lynx for one of the most fun things I did in WoT since I started playing in 2013. It's an exceptionally good tank.

Pure damn skill. Wow! Well done Quicky.

Amazing game, it was awesome seeing it live!

Very nicely played, QB

I am glad you said that the Lynx has a bad win rate because I stopped playing mine assuming I was just bad a wheeled vehicles, maybe the vehicle itself had something to do with it. I also find lately that most scouting I do is for very little assist almost like nobody is shooting the tanks I light.

man...its criminal how easy this guy makes this game look

Some of my best games/best memories are in lts, highest xp earned was in the ELC back when it was one of the most dangerous lts (2,694)

Will, you can see that as soon as you used the freecam, that is when the replay bug with the minimap rings started.

Saw it Live... Great performance!

I needed this

nice... this will be good for new players and for everybody

Idk about many others but I’ve noticed stuff about the vision. On some TDs for instance the ones that have a long or short reload. I may have binocs or them with the addition of optics. While moving the optics boost the vision, while sitting the Binocs over ride the optics. However if I’m spotted, and then hit I move so optics are the active once again however the scouts typically shoot again or stealthy mediums will and upon that second shot from the scout or perhaps the first from the medium after I move the optics spot the person or persons shooting me. Now the team knows as well as I do. It’s pretty useful, the tanks that have fast reload don’t need a gun rammer, the ones that have a long reload well I can see the benefits of have 1.5 seconds or more faster reload but at the end of a match or even the end of my game with that tank very very very small amount of times would a shorter reload of saved me and given me the ability to live a little longer. To then possibly take out more and more tanks. Tis the reason for my thoughts of this which actually prove to be very very very useful.

Aye a two day wait for a video😎 very cool quickybabyw

Great game and lesson thks

Thanks QB.

This video is very welcome, since it was today when I had a very embarassing LTG vs LTG duel.

I love my lynx and have a mark of excellence in it. I had no clue people did so terribly in it.

this was a good one

It looks so easy and simple

Got me a German T-3 Oz.Kpfw I Ausf C, light tank, tracked tank, shows to be the Fastest light tank available at starts of any line, 79km/h. All I done so far is upgrade the engine and the tracks. No mod yet. I plan to add Advanced repair (maybe, if I survive getting shot, and find a spot to hide, I hope if gain some HP), Optics, suspension, and ventilator. Sight range only 339 M but I have a German commander with an improved sight range. Anyway, though tracks, she faster than most. Still new to me on LIGHT TACTICS.

Went from 2 tier 5 light tanks at 30% wr and after this I managed to get them up to 50%. Ty ty

Every time i see an awesome QB video about a tank, i imeditely go and play it and make a fool of myself :)

Damn, that was a good game. Congrats.

Nice video. Can you do one in a light tank? I mean, there's a good take away for general light tank play for sure, but active scouting in a traditional light tank is definitely what I'm looking for and they don't have inertial dampeners. The WoT physics engine wasn't designed for armored cars, there would be a lot less traction when throwing around 15+ tons the way they are allowed to do here. That's why "tanks" have treads.

Just decided i would attempt to get ebr 105 and then ypu posted this video, perfect.

Thanks sooooo much I'm absolutely trash in light tanks, I needed the help. 🙂

Dope video QB

Your are the best!

OMFG YOU FINALLY MADE THE VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Your a real good player QB ! Light tanks are to fast for me /skill cap to high. But love to see how you do thinks and your explenation. Your the best "reporter" of all WoT content creators

Thanks!

Awesome !

Quicky you missed the entire thing about light meta, it swapped from passive to offensive. Lights often yolo to the enemy, die then salt the team didnt help, when they when face first, and they often get countered by passive lights.

i feel wheeled LTs should have the view range of an arty or even less.

I love you man

I grinded the wheel tanks to tier X (my first t10 btw) and i like the playstyle as active spotter and tried to really master it, mostly with success

Thnx for help

Could you do a video going over all the standard light bushes on all maps? Might be a bit of work but certainly very useful. If this already exists, please tell me the name. Cheers

Thanks a lot

you've answered a question whose answer i've somehow missed previously, re: coated optics, being able to use them on the move vs having to be still for binoculars

I would love to see a video on the ELC EVEN 90.

I personally use Exhaust, Optics and Vents to maximise camo while on the move. And if I'm feeling fiendish Rations and Camo/Vents directive.

Could you do more of this kind of video, about how to play and tank review

10:45, it's partly because there are bushes that don't work. Sometimes you drive into a bush and get spotted.

GREAT GAME!

Anyone else triggered by Quicky calling a wheeled vehicle a tank?

Lynx 6x6 my 1st and only 2 marked tank :D

So many games I see all the lights dead in the first minute or less. They charge out and want to spot and get massacred. Not many play them well. I have seen a few that survive to the end of the game and they are then very dangerous. Great video.

i like to have an extra light tank category, a sort of support tank like the Super Chaffee

no one ever points out the use of the advanced radio. I love that equipment on my lights. vanishing quicker, and keeping them spotted longer, works AMAZING.

Ive had a few insanely good matches in my light tanks i have goten a few matches where ive carried the team with any where between 7-9kills

wheeled armored are called scout cars or OP vehicles/true light tanks are no way near as close don't even want to mention commanders vision equipment.

A lot of light tanks branches should get a buff like Chinese, English, German, Americans

Since you made this video on lights, are you going to be making one for the other types of tanks?

survive while providing good info to your team as your power raises as there are fewer tanks on the map to let you flank and be sneaky.

Coated optics comander vision system and silent exhust on many light tanks

The only one competent Lynx 6x6 player I have ever seen. Those things rarely survive the firts 3 minutes.

Remembered me the time I got one of my best game with BC12t, spotted 8k and dealed 4k.

i have just started to play my first light tech tree couple of days ago

Just what I'm trying to do, learn light tanks

Lynx is tough. And I'll have to play it FOREVER since it's 110k exp. to unlock the Tier IX.

early? luv you QB

Hey quicky, took your advice on watching your settings guide, and noticed it’s 4 yrs old…is it still applicable now with the nee versions? Thanks!

yeah 4 full crew skill, comsumable, and extra coated optic

a very different question, but what is the best tank in the bond shop?

QB talks about the camo net in 2021, even in 2015 camo net was useless. Also a lot of tomatos play the wheelies and die in the first 30 secs, and thats why they have bad stats. I makred ebr 105, i tried cvs too, idk bond optics, rammer, vents, worked for me better, i needed that dpm in some maps, in the late game the ebr can farm easily 3-4k dmg + the assist from early game. Ps. I marked today the Amx 13 105 too (bond optics, vents and stabs), (also, Sheridan, t100 and rhm light 2 marked at the moment, i will grind the 3 mark later) I find it easy to outplay ebrs with other light tanks. I had a session today with 13 105, 8 games, 2k avg dmg and 5.2k avg spot..i was lucky with map rotation , but also every game had enemy ebr, and i needed to outplay them.

Hey QuickBaby!!! The Chi-Ri es the best tier 7 TD? 🤔🤔

Please do this kind of video on all tank types but go more in-depth
