Skoda T 45 - Tank Review - World of Tanks 

Looks like a collector's vehicle for players who have more bonds than sense

I think they meant to do it on the April fools day but their calendar got messed up

You forgot to mention the horrific shell velocity on the HEAT round at 600m/s.

Imagine if they gave this the same gun as the T-27 and made it a bursty, well armored heavy tank that can sit out for 4 seconds, bounce shots and pump out about 800 damage in 4 seconds.

Keep up the content, QB. You make my busy days bearable... From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

12k bonds. I wouldn't pay 6k for this. How can it be so expensive? What are they thinking?

As the awesome epic guys says about this tank : "but why?"

QB has always entertained us during the lockdown. Thank You for this pleasure!

The shot at 10:52 describes very well the Skoda T 45 situation

I wonder if they planned to have it with a auto-loader but changed their minds and did not know what to do with it :)

The Czech mediums are SO much fun, and i was super excited for this... what a missed opportunity.

if the premium tank is that bad how terrible are going to be the tech tree tanks?

They could have just given this the gun the ELC EVEN 90 has, with maybe -10 seconds or so off the clip reload. At least then it would be a bit more like the Czech mediums.

Czech Players: Oh wow finally new tank for our nation,we are so excited lets hope its gonna be good because we waited so long for this WG: Makes the tank which is probably one of the worst heavys in tier 7 Also Czech players: Am i joke to you?

This tank would have been a good premium tank if it was released 6-7 years ago with preferential match making

Thanks for the clear statement warning not to waste my bonds 👍👏

Imagine a rear mounted auto loading heavy line for the Czech tanks that would be broken but yet really interesting

not only bonds, you need to reach division 2 to be able to buy it, so if you don't want to play ranked you are out of luck

The tank feels like the amx tier 7 heavy. Both stat wise, and armor wise.

This feels like a tier 7 Heavy Pudel, change my mind.

My disappointment is immeasurable, and my day is ruined.

After trying and despairing with the Italian Heavy line - and listening to you talk about this new Czech heavy tank - I have come to the conclusion that the game is now being designed by people who don't play it. I say this because while things can look balanced on paper - in play they are soul destroying. The Italians have no armour yet move like they are a Maus, and their guns are so situational as to be pointless. So there is nothing about them that feels good. Mobility Firepower Armour - that used to be Ohm's Law when the game was coded by people who liked playing it. Long gone.

Quicky's team looked like a flock of seagulls chasing that last IS. "MINE MINE MINE!" 😃😵😃

We have kept QB entertained during this lockdown, you're welcome for this pleasure!

The art department did well with this vehicle, it looks cool, it’s just a shame the thing just doesn’t have anything special going for it gameplay wise. Is the Czech heavy line going to be the Chinese Tank Destroyers of heavy tanks?

I feel WG wants to hurt mid tiers as much as possible. They want people to pay for premium tanks and play at tier 10 which I dont agree with

At least it looks cool from the front, that medium Skoda look, but bigger and thicker

So are there any tanks in the bond shop that are worth it?

if it had preferential match making, it might have been worth thinking about for F2P players to get a premium vehicle without spending cash. but if you are going to be seeing higher tiers, I cant see it selling.

All those stats tells us that Czech's are reasonable people that don't throw money at WG. So WG made shit worth tank available for in-game currency xDDD

Thanks for mentioning the equipment you are using. It would be helpful for those of us who follow you for advice, if you could do that on all of your videos.

I'm f2p and a collector of new tanks. I think this is a good chance for training new HT crew without spending real money buying premium tanks. I already had the chimera and the obj 260 all for free, actually aiming to the obj 279 (e) :) thanks for the video QB

Honestly i could sort of give WG props. I mean everyone has been complaining about all the OP prem tanks coming out. Well now they released a prem tank just like they used to be. BUT!! The damage is done and the OP tanks are still OP.

czechoslovakia!!!

Adding the Bob Semple Tank would be a cool thing for people to have, in tier 4 i think

And yes...I was happy to get the Skoda T27 to turn some excess Czech medium tank crews into something credible to get ready for the new heavy branch.

It's alright and I would love to drive it but since I don't play ranked it's pretty much impossible for me to get it it's pretty bizarre why WG Introduces a brand new tank that hasn't got it's tech tree yet in ranked I don't understand why they do this :(

Imagine this thing was on same level as e25, people would then cry that its too OP. I got it down to 6500 bonds and still dont want it.

Unfortunately I do not find that WoT justifies my time like it did a year ago, or the seven prior to that. I do still find enjoyment in your videos however, I wish you the best of fortunes this year dear QuickyBaby.

Honestly, it actually makes sense why this tank is under powered. Given the players who will have easy access to it, they are the same players who can dump a lot of resources into the tank to make it competitive. In fact, it is what most players have wanted from reward tanks: that they be slightly under powered.

I am a new WoT player. My friends suggested that QuickyBaby would be a great resource to learn the game better. This is the first video I have watched. Is it possible to play the game in colourbind settings for those folks/fans who are colourblind? It would be very helpful to be able to see what is going on to better understand the teachable points. Thank you

It could have been interesting if it had a autoloader... Just everything the same but a 3 or 4 clip autoloader on it

I love the Polish 45tp, That tank is one of my favorites. This new Czech tank is nowhere near as good as the 45tp. I'll be hoarding my bonds thank you very much.

our VII tanks Škoda T45 - virgin 220 alpha dmg for HT Konštrukta T-34/100 - Chad 250 alph dmg for MT

Greeting from Czech

I still think it is interesting that after all these years, QB has to still check the name of the map he’s on. It’s true that many of us know the maps intimately but struggle to remember the names.

If this was just a throwaway premium tank it wouldn't be a big deal...but all that misplaced exclusivity is a bit much...particularly since the rumors suggest that the Czech heavies will be auto-loaders. My question is whether Crew 2.0 is implemented first, or the Czech heavies.

This tank needs a buff. For the amount of Bonds really disappointing was looking forward to the Czech Heavies

Damn for some reason I was kooking at this tank as a tier 8 tank and during the stat review I was concerned

your Jingles was strong in the intro

In this meta this tank has no place especially for bonds. It has obvious shot trap on front of the turret.

I think what messed up this tank - high price tag. People see 12000 bonds and expect wonder tank. But T45 is a solid heavy. No more, but no less. It is not a bad tank. Just do not worth bonds for it.

Tier 7 is an unusual space I find, most feel like tier 6.5....

I thought this costs 2000 bonds, but then QB casually drops the bomb that this cost 12,500 bonds without the discount. Unbelievable.

I'll never cry for a non OP premium tank, even if it costs bonds and new branch

So basically is a fat version of a TVP VTU Concept at tier 7 huh ?

I like that at least it's a regular heavy tank with no weird gimmicks.

Good honest review.

Just A recommendation can you redo your what tier 9 tanks to sell or keep its been a couple of years and things have changed and more tanks have been added and I want to see your opinion on them?

The gold round is dead slow for what it is at 600m/s so when not top tier and supporting it doesn't take much for anything to avoid the shots if one doesn't have huge leads.

Gold is by FAR the most important currency in the game. Imagine not being able to demount equipment. Or your first dozen games in any new tank is with a 75-90% crew. I don't think I would play the game under those circumstances. It's far easier to be competitive without bonds than it is without gold. I would probably even say free XP is more important than bonds.

I now realise why the oh-ni has such a great win rate

WG has lost it's mind a long time ago. Not surprised by this.

I'll let this thing with an identity crises pass my collection...

As always: An average or a below average prem tank is MUCH better than an above average one.

Just subscribed yesterday, very informative videos thanks.

I don't see any reason to give 12.500 bonds for a tier 7 tank, which will be a pain to play.

I ve been watching your content for 6 years now and I always enjoy it even if I sometimes disagree. But today was the first time I pressed the dislike button. The reason for that is that all this "not a heavy tank" or "not a medium tank" trend can work when you know what to do and how to do it. For most players it is far more preferable to go to their flank and try to support their better vehicles. For example most players would stay in that deep forever in the first game or stay and snipe also forever in that second game. I m tired of all those "leopard is not a medium tank" , or "277 is not a heavy tank" , excuses. It is what the matchmaker says it is for better or worse and when you don't go to your flank you give a disadvantage to your team unless you turn it around by pushing that other flank that you went to. Sorry mate but I expect by content creators not to encourage people to play in a way that will only increase the chance of more 15-1 three-minute games and keep in mind that most of their viewers areaverage or below average players and not super uincorns that can reprocess and relocate more than once in the same battle.

Just gonna train a heavy crew in the T40 with the Czech crew I received from the blueprint exchange.

Stats sometime dont show the whole story. For example you bounced quite a lot of shots in this game, and some where from TDs. Also turret traverse is quite fast compared to other tanks, effectively meaning better aim-time/snapshoting and in the end of the story a bit better effective dpm

Never going to complain about a new premium not being OP. I've learned my lesson.

TL:DR: Remarkably unremarkable

Bonds are the most important currency in the game. Me with 500 Bonds : -_- wat

thank you dude.. i always wait for your video to come out. You are the SINGLE person who makes good points and doesn't suck up to wargaming like other streamers. Furthermore you have always a valid and thought out opinion about tanks and changes for the game. Lastly , you speak damn good English unlike other people who dont even try to be better at what they are doing. You ve come a long way.

does the tiger play in a similar fashion, given its rather lackluster armour layout?

i from the Czech Rep., this tank a mockery. They add EBR (total OP tier VIII), they add Bourrasque (total OP), and many others, for polish people they add average CS-53 LIS, for CZ this ? and tier VII ? Sorry 4 my english :)

QB went cowboy mode for 5 seconds

It feels like the Czech HTs are dead on arrival, I don’t think they’re coming honestly. Otherwise this might be a way of WG to demonstrate that the CZ HTs won’t have any special abilities.

What is the best bounty equipment for the char futur 4?

what I'm noticing is that a 1st gen night vision on commander's coppola

WG needs to stop playing the balancing game with their premium/reward tanks. If you’re gonna add a special tank to the game (outside of the core mechanics/tech tree) the tank itself should add something new or quirky. Right now, WG either makes an OP tank that everyone raves about because it’s pay to win. Or they make an underpowered tank and everyone rages about WG giving them garbage. In the rare case where the tank is balanced, the tank is just boring and nobody cares. Give us a tank that is super fast and has good armor, but has the drawback of a totally garbage gun. Or a speedy paper tank at tier 8-10 but has the 1.5 second reload of the low tiers.

I don't think every new tank should have some new mechanic but god damn at least make it not suck

I laughed when QB said 'if you play against tier 8 and 9 tanks.' Its *when* because you *will* face tier 8 and 9 tanks 90% of the time.

Tier 7 Tanks in general have no decent armor - only exception is the T29 (and the Su-122-44 can be quite good).

Great looking forward to this.

quickybaby you rock, thank you for all the content.

I don't play WoT anymore but I still enjoy QB's videos. 😁7

Will the Jan Ciska style for the premium med fit on this one too??

Didn’t put vents on the main slot of his equipment....goddang!

A Interaction helps the Algorithm

I wonder if Wargaming plans on making a tech tree Czech heavy line. WG is good at making up fictional tanks

That new Octavia is quite strange

it should be a 5 shots autoloader...with 1.5 sc Interclip reload..

When a premium tank is op, it's bad, but when it's not op, we hate it. Proves we don't really want the "good old days" when premium tanks were a bit worse than tech tree counterparts.

Damn i had ideas for Italian Tank destroyers and a premium Italian tier 9 SPG. Maybe the SPG will be screwed off. But Italian Tank destroyers yes

Also, you cannot just buy it. You need to reach division 2 in ranked battles first.

6000 bonds now once you finish 10 qualifying games.

Great video! Keep it up!

I remember Jingles talking about the TOG "its bigger than a Tiger, its Heavier and slower than a Tiger, it has less firepower than a Tiger, and it has less armor" how do you fck that up XD

I really enjoy the 45TP
