The Grind To 6.0 Is Tough! 

8:36 your turret was so slow because you engine was off. you run of battery for like a minute, then your crew has to manually crank the turret. the timer is displayed center bottom above your ammo.

1:30 the kunigstiger, is the top battle pass reward for sweden, its a tiger II P but without the side skirts

6:45 you are getting better at planes, what got you killed is you did not commit, you gave up. even if you're not likely to win, keep turning because if you don't you'll die anyways

Bro had an emotional breakdown after dying to that m18💀

Congratulations on the content partnership, seen you grow since 600 subs. Well done man!

Little bit of advice when using German planes : select "Air Targets" ammunition belts for the 20mm and 30mm cannons. They have a high concentration of shells with strong HE effects that will do a lot of damage if they connect - it should be easily noticeable with wings or tails losing chunks or ripping off. On the other hand there's less AP shells for ground targets, but the German autocannons don't penetrate enough for it to make much of a difference. HE shells will also wreck open-topped vehicles.

8:43 once your in that spot turn the engine on and turn the whole tank (also congrats on your partnership)

recently discovered you and ive been HOOKED to your videos man. Keep it up!

Highly recommend the Ostwind II. That thing is a beast at killing aircraft

i recommend getting Puma into the lineup and have an ol' reliable light to zoom around the map

Been playing 12 years now and am enjoying your videos, challenges and progress! F2P for 11 of those 12 years and still have fun and the occasional rage at Gaijin. Also suggest you try Italy, the most fun up to 7.0

I have to Say again, the jagdpanther could really help you. Researching it means you also have acces to the jpz 4-5 wich is quite the oppesite play style of the jagdpanther since its faster but with less armour, Overall both great tanks imo

Just a slight tip For most of the 190s when you go below 400 you can use your landing flaps for better turn use it every time you can, it just turns your interceptor level turn to a dog fighter turning plane

8:36, when you turn off your engine a red battery with a countdown will pop up close to the bottom of the screen, when that counter reaches 0 your turret drive will lose power and you'll be stuck with hand crank (slow as shit), dont let the counter reach 0

Man you have grown so much man, i started watching you when you only had 800 subs. THAT IS CRAZY!!!

The Zerstorer has no armour because it shreds the armour of the enemies, it's a natural balance type thing.

one piece of advice I can give is that most players are not using audio and wont hear you flanking them even if youre playing super loud tanks.

Get the FW 190 F-8 for cas it can carry a 1000kg bomb and 14 rockets for light targets

Do try and get the Zerstörer spaa, it might have basically no armor at all but that thing shreds planes like crazy

I just finished my 6.0 lineup, and GOD did it take long, just got the Panther F yesterday

love the gameplay bro keep up the WT videos they amaizing btw do you play alone? would love to play with you in squad

6:58 im not very expert, but is such situation when you're in a german plane just stick to the fight, because US 20mm can snipe you from 1km if you run away

When angling your tiger, the barrel should be over the corner of the top layer

here a few tips to help gun settling turn on block vertical aiming when braking dont stay slammed on the brakes and wait for a full stop kinda just tap the brakes and let it roll to stop not pressing w panthers guns are very stable at low speed almost like a stabilzer, and same applies let it more roll to a stop than just slamming on the brakes and BF109s are more suited than the fw190 handles better gonna make dogfighing alot easier (they have less guns but trade the guns for handling)

I’m kinda excited for him to reach 6.7 USA especially the t26e5 that’s going to be fun to watch

The premium account almost makes the suffering of constant uptiers and unbalanced tanks worth it because even with 1 or 2 kills you get a couple thousand XP, pretty useful and will make it easier

Definitely gotta recommend 6.0 -6.7 france. Absolute goblin mode with the light tanks.

I just finished researching the Panther G... time to suffer through getting the SL needed to buy it.

Nice I'm up to 9.0 Germany I had a lot of fun playing 6.0!

Germany 6.0 is my most favorite line up in the game because not a bunch of tanks can pen the panthers front all armor unless if you see an American T 34

When diving in a plane set thrust to zero to have a better chance to pull up

Here I am again, back with more yapping and advice. This is gonna be a big one (massive, even, dunno why I'm even writing a beast this big) because the oil burn I recently got doesn't hurt as much and I can type with both hands. Angle your Tiger. Please. I beg. If you're not 100% certain the enemy can't get their shot off, your first instinct should be to steer left or right (depending on which is faster) IMMEDIATELY. An angled Tiger is often a problem even for vehicles a full BR above it. As for the guy who killed you near the start of the video, the Kungstiger, it's a King Tiger premium for Sweden that you could get in the last Battle Pass - it's the same as the German Tiger II (H), aka the earlier Tiger II. Both sit at a BR of 6.7, which means you got uptiered that match. You can easily tell the BR of the match by looking at your Spawn Points - for a Medium Tank, fighting at your own BR means it should cost 130 SP to spawn. 120 means you're uptiered by .3, 110 means you're uptiered by .7 and 100 means you're uptiered by a full 1.0 BR, the max value. IIRC, Germany 6.0 regularly gets uptiered by .7 or 1.0, if not almost always. For the sake of information, the inverse is also true - if you're fighting at a .3 BR LOWER, it'll cost ya 140 SP, .7 will cost you 150 SP and 1.0 will cost 160 SP. This only applies to Medium Tanks, as Heavies are always 10 points more expensive, SPAA are always the cheapest and SPGs (Self-Propelled Gun) or TDs (Tank Destroyer) are about 10 points cheaper, alongside Light Tanks IIRC. Speaking of your Tiger, while I'm glad you're not bringing full ammo, you really don't need cca 30 shells. I tend to bring 22 APHE at most *but* that depends on the tank - knowing how many you're likely to even be able to fire, how many you're gonna NEED to fire in an ideal situation and knowing the layout of your ammo is all something you'd generally want to consider. The more ammo you have, the more likely that an enemy shell hits said ammo and sends your turret flying into low Earth orbit. Since you rarely need more than one shot to kill an enemy with *most* APHE, much less the based Tiger APHE which, if you're using the one with less flat pen but more filler, can overpressure. It can also depend on the map, but for the Tiger I wouldn't really bring more than 18 APHE shells. Maybe a few more if you regularly find you completely run out, but you definitely don't need like 25. Same goes for the Panther - do you really ever run out or even get low on APHE to the point you'd need *THIRTY* APHE shells? I've had 10+ ground kill matches and I never needed that much ammo. (Panthers are the opposite of Tigers - your upper front plate is already sloped so if they can already pen it, angling doesn't do shit - plus, unlike the Tiger whose sides are as thick as the front, the Panther's sides are paper-thin and it's no exaggeration to say exposing them even a little is a bad idea. You wouldn't BELIEVE at what wild angles I got penned through my side armor on my Panther.) I think I mentioned this before, but playing planes that are way lower BR in Ground RB.... Well, I guess you COULD do that, but definitely would not recommend as anti-CAS, lol (that said, a lot of War Thunder players are braindead and a lot of them also don't know how to fly...). Do you think it'd be a good idea to bring a 3.0 plane to a 6.0 Air RB match? Then why bring it to a 6.0 Ground match with the goal of fighting planes? There are ways to make a lower BR plane work, mind you - namely, if it's a bomber or a strike aircraft because in those you're attacking ground targets who are naturally at a disadvantage in most cases. To that end, a good lower tier plane to bring to 6.0 is the Bf 110 at 3.7- with a mix of 20mm and 30mm guns as well as pretty big bombs and decent rockets, you can easily obliterate armored targets and any SPAA you so much as sneeze at will be instantly atomized. The general problem with CAS, which I'm sure you're having considering the circumstances... is that you first need to grind out the plane in Air to be useful, lol. And the reason you're using lower BR planes in the first place is because you don't like playing them, so... Basically... Don't even bring planes to begin with. I know a lot of us, probably even myself, told you to bring them, but that was under a lot of, frankly, baseless assumptions we made. Better players just assuming a level of competence we think is basic but really isn't, I guess. That said, some basic principles for defensive flying (offensively your only real problem is leading your shots and slightly unstable flying but that isn't that big of a deal) - the easiest thing to remember is that you need to make sure the enemy can't get you in their sights to begin with. Barrel rolls and stuff like that is usually useless unless you're playing against a brainlet who gets confused by it. The problem is that doing a barrel roll looks fancy but your plane is still going in more or less the same direction. Just like with a car, it takes a while to change direction - you don't immediately face left if you turn your wheel left, you're still facing mostly forward. To that end, here's a pro tip - assuming you don't have to pay attention to the ground, try looking at your opponent's plane at all times. You see, planes pull UP better than DOWN, so if you can continue to roll and pull up so that the most direct way for him to aim at you is to pull down, he'll always struggle to hit you, and maybe won't be able to at all. To try and illustrate, if your plane looks like this ____A____ then relative to your plane you want his to look like this ˘˘˘˘˘V˘˘˘˘˘ and the inverse is true. Same applies to the sides - in other words, if the top of your plane is facing left, you want the top of his plane to face right. Since he can't pull down to shoot you, he will begin to turn left - so you just have to keep turning (AND PULLING UP!) so that the tops of your planes always face the opposite directions. Another thing is that the most important thing when you're flying is your ENERGY - measured in kinetic energy, aka your SPEED, and the potential energy of your ALTITUDE. In other words; Energy = Speed + Altitude. If you and your enemy are at the same altitude, you'll have the advantage if you have more speed. If you have the same speed, you will have the advantage if you have more altitude. At any point in the match, you can exchange speed for altitude, or altitude for speed - in other words, climbing and diving. Planes with exceptional energy retention, then, can dive and pull back up to nearly the same altitude and speed they were at before (since turning bleed speed and thus energy, some is always lost in this strategy). The only time your turn rate (how fast you can turn your plane around) is important is if you have the same energy or if your enemy is stupid enough to give up THEIR energy advantage in order to turnfight you (also called a ratefight) - assuming, of course, that you CAN turn better. In other words, if you're facing someone who knows what they're doing, aerial combat becomes about outsmarting the other person into having less energy than you or having more energy from the get-go by flying a plane with exceptional climb rate and speed. This is also relevant because if you have an energy advantage you always have the choice to run away from an unfavorable engagement. This all culminates in the beginner-friendly art of Boom-and-Zoom - go high up, locate target at a lower altitude, dive on them and pull back up - do NOT turnfight them, your energy is your best offensive AND defensive tool. Spending your energy on one enemy leaves you a sitting duck for anyone else. You can always simply repeat the process until your enemy is dead. Climb, locate enemy under you, dive, shoot, immediately climb again after you can no longer easily shoot them. Repeat. Comment will be in two parts as I've given YT more than it's small text box can handle.

the next panther you can get at 6.0 looks good but is not better I have all 3 and I dont really recommend the last on i like the first two better just get the king tiger now its a great tank

Kungstiger is from Swedish nation as a battle pass reward, its a Swedish Tiger 2 Sla. 16

you get monthly GE you can just buy premium time with that

The zestorer's protection is the guns. No need for bravery when you got a flakvierling.

I still use the panther A in my 6.7 lineup because why not

I have a lot of trouble with the tigers. I feel like at its BR everything cab pen it, and it doesn’t feel like a heavy tank. :|

Would love to watch a video of you playing ground Simulator battles!

American CAS at this br its full Incarnation of pure democracy 3 2000lbs bombs on AM1 is crazy

Zerstörer 45 translates to destroyer 45

Im working on the german 6.0 line up aswell

honestly have had more fun with the puma at 6.0 over 3.3

Yo wanna race on the american tech tree since were at a similar br

Zestorer = destroyer

dearest gabby as a cas enjoyer myself i beg you to please use your flaps when turning its gonna make your life a lot easier

Try puma at 6 00 br its bc it can out run heavy tanks

Dude just fucking wait for 8.0 you are going to get clobbered

Can u play sweden?

Gibby you should make a discord

You are using the wrong rounds on the Wirbelwind

You don't know how to angle the tiger properly, and that's a fact. With some time playing with Tiger 1 you will learn, trust me.

day 4 of asking for archer vid also angle your tiger

Lol 6.0 germany is easy mode what do you mean, anything 6.0 and down is really good for germany kimda where german bias sits

Day 3 of asking for the pvkv ll

Bros at 2.2k now
