This is Why WG Should NEVER Sell This Tank Again | World of Tanks 

He said it best, the tank is so notorious it has a fear factor. Whenever I'm in a T6 or T7 and I see a BZ anywhere on the map, I try to do anything to be at the furthest possible distance away from it. The closer you are to it, the more likely it will hit you and you'll be sitting in the garage and using some really dirty S, X, F and even N-tier slurs to describe the developers who designed this and the management who approved its release. It singlehandedly ruined T6, T7 and T8 matchmaking for years. And WG will never have the balls to slightly hurt their whales and nerf it.

@@Memsandro are you surprised though? they have been releasing pay to win tanks since type 59 and super pershing, this is nothing new

@@soldier22881 I call all other tanks pay for advantage, they're better, but not godlike. Meanwhile BZ-176 is in a league of its own, it makes even tomatoes perform like average players and unicums perform like super unicums

@@Memsandro only if you play it seriously mines winrate is almost 10 percent lower than the average i play it for fun 80 percent of the time

Agree, i am an unicum and i have never had games like this. Every recent epic kolobanov potential i had was stolen from me by the last remaining enemy, just because they were lucky and i was not.

​@@danibojko3844I lost my 1v6 opportunity to a lowroll and ran out of ammo...

having an overpowered real money tank also helped

They cant!!!

@@NicoGranate23 Why not? Since the tank has never been on sale, the refund will not ruin their budget.

@@XtreeM_FaiL This is a premium tank that once sold cannot be taken out of the game and cannot be made worse, it is not possible.

@@NicoGranate23 What was the price of the tank? Who said premiums can not be nerfed or removed?

​@@NicoGranate23premiums can be nerfed. If u red the ToS or smth u can see it

Not really. Remember the Chrysler GF? It was invincible, until Wag nerfed it's upper turret, and buffed premiums.

I am so glad I don't play this shit game anymore.

@@Mthammere2010 No premium tank was nerfed since Super Pershing. Chrysler is still invincible against 220mm pen guns. You have to load gold.

​@@Mthammere2010 chrysler wasn't nerfed. It was called the gold tank because people need to spam gold to pen the tank and use gold to pen other tank.

@@youtubiak EBR 75 FL 10 was (technically) nerfed - iirc it had the boost mechanic (separate but not unlike the BZ boosts) until the tech tree was officially released in Update 1.4, which removed its boost.

Yea...like half the premiums nowadays should have 0 / +2 MM... Cuz' allowing 1357s and E25s against tier 5s is also just PURE JOKE...

@@laszlopap8271 Ja, de azokat legalább frontból belövöd még normál lőszerrel is, ezt a BZ-t arannyal se lövöd be egy tier6-os tankkal se.

*Never meet tier8 or higher

unfortunately they cant change a premium tank, they did with the super pershing 10 years ago, ended up in the american court. they lost a lot of money because of it. It is not viable to do so for them.

@@VanguardDetonados this was proven incorrect, there were no lawsuits. you agree in the Eula that anything you buy is subject to change as well so

These kind of people don't understand that winning gives you at least x2 more xp than losing *AND DRAWING.* I hate people who just want useless draws. It's straight up useless. Like at least if you lose the enemy team gets more xp. So it's still a win for the playerbase to progress faster together.

Ye because game does not give any benefits to the player who captures the base. Like you receive worse stats and crying chat. I've captured a base couple of times and got 100 xp. I mean I made my team WIN the game and got a kaka in return.

Is WG a charity? Their only goal is to make a profit. And that's good because they will only profit if they attract and keep players.

@@rmw00 right? I am tired of those crying babies ...wtf? its company, its a business ! nothing else.

First it's a business and they NEED to make money to stay in business! You would be the first one crying if they decided to shut down saying again, "WG dont care about players" because they shut down. Second if all they cared about was money they would sell the BZ 176 the EBR 75 (FL10) and the 105 leFH1882 again for a high price. People would buy them making a PROFIT for WG and it would bring balance to the game because there would be more of them in battles creating a balance.

All those BZ players in the comments defending their precious paid victories XD. In the past, somehow WG was also selling premium tanks, but those were almost regular tech tree tanks (very often even worse) with preferential mm.... It was possible to earn cash in a pretty much non-destructive way, but WG got too greedy... And now they are slowly digging themselves a golden "scrooge mcduck treasury" burial grounds. Cause of death: drowned in money. It is already happening. WOT population is dwindling. It is not the same what it was. Soon the only players that will be left in the game will be your typical "BZ" or P2W type of player. So what they will do if all of the sudden everyone will have same paid advantage ? They will leave too. GG. End of story. WG knows this, as they are already developing another tank game. They just want to milk all of the whales that are still playing while they still they can.

@@Tommy_The_Gun I do not own one :'(

And more AP Pen. Done.

Or that instead of nerving it thats a good idea and no one could cry because they would had a t9 prem then .

Still stronger than the tier 9 thech tree BZ.

They shouldn't be able allowed to change it.. people paid for it.. all they can do is silently nerf it :) either way... it`s hard to play with... :D

@MrTheScorpions well considering they change premiums on console quite often and we don't 0 compensation from WG

learn to aim then, it has 3 weak spots at top and lower plate, hello?

Exactly its always ppl who dont bother to learn about its weak spots who complain about it​ the most@@Evro_X

176 is easy to pen on the weak spot, my problem is Iron arnie and T-832, very small weak spots with impenetrable turrets

@@arif11011 I'll grant you BZ-176 has some good weakspots. But lets be honest, we also call Obj 279e's "weakspots" on the turret, but when a "weakspot" is just 2 pixels large, the meaning of the word loses its grace. While this is not necessarily the case for BZ-176, trying to hit something because RNG can screw you right back still IS a thing.

@@arif11011 i will say one big issue though is most things trying to hit weak spots on a BZ-176 have 0 armor and so the BZ just has to hit them anywhere whereas everyone has to aim against the BZ

yep they were typical greedy seagulls that dont like to cap, instead they waste time chasing last tanks. hate those players they are the worst and my teams always lose to them so i get hunted by cowards with no skill. but unlike bz they always charge at same time.

Great game regardless of the vehicle!

Well played, brother It's a broken tank, for sure, but it takes a superb player to show just how broken it can really be like that Anyone saying 'it was because the the tank is broken', well, that's like saying astronauts have a rocket so going to the moon isn't all that impressive Really impressive stuff!

the fact it sees tier 6 or tier 7 says a lot how idiotic BZ-176 is. You're just one sample vs the norm. What an ignorant statement.

@YoMamaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa I understand, it's a skill and common sense issue with you.

@@rodneymercado7195 oh boohoo its really just skill, yeah man, fall back to that when you can't offer any reasonable argument on how tier 6/7s can fight that tank "solo"

Soooo if you had gotten the tank all would be ok? lol

@@jrok4312 It's the imbalance that bothers me. I didn't know that tank was op until after I had spent my money. I just wanted a tank with rocket boosters at the time. Then the realization that people that spent less money than me got a better tank bothered me. We all want good tanks, just not so op that people hate you for playing it.

hmm, if they nerfed it, would they get more backlash or more positive feedback 🧐, probably 50/50 the ones who have that tank would complain, and the rest would be happy.

@WorldOfTanksOfficialChannel See, everyone should be allowed to own a BZ-176 if they choose to.

​@@hohumfan2631Everyone had an option. Buy loot boxes for 240€ and 100% guaranteed - you have the tank

The entire ebr line was a gigantic mistake

bourrasque, škoda, but everything pales in comparison to this

@@zograf4572 Could not agree more. I hate that crap more than I ever hated arty, which is quite something when you think about it.

First mistake was the E25/Skorpion. It was all downhill after that.

EBR 75 is a very high skill tank to survive and carry games, BZ is a zero low skill tank to do both

If it was me, insta cap and the game is ends there.

those players were most likely the unskilled kill hungry seagulls that my teams like to lose against, they dont cap and theres always that one troll that keeps stepping on and off cap while his teamates hunt you down instead of ending the game and capping. hate those kind of players and i cant believe im saying this im glad the bz won against those greedy cowardly seagull type players

Skoda is also quite a broken tank so that still doesn't really absolve the issue at hand. The basic problem is that unlike a KV-2, these tanks have equal (or marginally better) alpha dmg, either directly or through burst while having a quite heavily armored tank. Facing inexperienced or 'bad' player is no excuse for a tank to simply be broken based on its stats alone.

@@skorpion7132 Bad Players get rekt against every Tank. Good Players will Always Farm. Thats all i saw Here. I Take a good Player in a patton59 ober a Bad Player nicht in bz everytime.

stop coping

@@janb.6434 Oh really, I played 40+ games today and faced many BZs and because I hate those tanks I always looked up the stats, they almost always were top of the team dmg wise and are below 50% winrate players many of them at 48%.

@@janb.6434 And what kinda point is that? So tanks like the Chieftain are not OP because bad players die in them.... (AND YES, BAD PLAYERS COULD BUY THAT THING WITH BONDS BACK THEN SO DONT SAY YOU NEED TO BE A PRO TO HAVE ONE)

they could always nerf premiums but they dont, the devs love creating casino toxic game, they catter to the worst groups imaginable, ffs they added artillery to a tank game! troll devs. glad i quit this god awful game

They have every right to nerf any tank or even delete it including the premiums... have you ever read the EULA (License agreement)? The simple reason they are not nerfing it is... cause they are a greedy money grab company... if they nerf a premium today... next time fools will nut rush to buy a broken tank when they release one... simple.

What are you talking about bruh you can literally overmatch the roof of the turret quite reliably

@@arif11011 overmatching with tier 6 and 7 guns? not possible. tier 8s firing heat is the closest possible option

​@@arif11011 To overmatch reliably you need 124mm caliber gun and higher. And those poor souls did not have this large guns.

@@ashtheswan705 Do you see the roof of this monstrosity... when it's hull down with -10 gun depression? do you even know what you are talking about?

@@arif11011 that's if your tank is tall enough to do so or have elevated ground otherwise, opinion rejected.

what a coincidence 2 other overpowered real money tanks are just as strong as the new real money tank. pay to win game is pay to win

Yea of course the enemies played it stupid, throws like this happen pretty often actually, but he is still a good player.

why are you even playing this pay tow in game in the first place? its a terrible game, community is toxic and the game is pay to win and incredibly unbalanced.

i got a bz 176 in a loot box and i sucked every game in it , sadly for you i havent played in a year lol

With a tier 9 btw

so no one can play anything else ever? shit no

No it would just be no-one having any fun.

Armagedon

Do you think a multi Billion company has many money problems?

@@cseszlaa They are greedy AF... That's the point.

yep i also like to cap instead of wasting 2-5 minutes chasing a light or driving across the map just to take out 2-5 last tanks. unfortunently too many people greedy seagull and afraid to 1v1 like men so they waste time chasing last tanks or hunting to get that 1 extra credit instead of capping and making more money finishing the match on time.

bravo for comment

No Streamer would complain if wg removed it from the game and would refund all players

@@pcl89 No streamer would have the right to claim a refund even IFwg would straight up delete the tank. It was never sold directly to begin with.

boo. thats the philosophy they used for Lefh, and now tier5 is unplayable garbage.

Exactly, there are many bz 176 in the game, and a lot of times, this tank is only on 1 side, so to make it, even they need to sell it again

It was both, really Like Skill said, even against truly stupid enemies (which these weren't), the IS6 could never have done anything like that Or the T34. Or the Renegade. Or any other tank They did go at him one at a time though, and gave him time to reload, which was not good team play But still. Any other tank would have been dead there really quick

It would be okay if it worked like any other derp gun in the game. But it has more HE pen than some tier 8 HTs have AP pen....

@@damafratzen and its premium HE has more pen than the type 4/5 heavy derp premium. its frankly absurd. edit: premium HE rounds should not have more pen than ap

I think WG should've kept the derp option and actually made it a true dwerp, and not a Deathstar-like HESH-user in disguise. the 650 AP round is workable since it has low pen. The 800 HE(SH) round should've been a 50/60 pen value. and reduce its armor of the front turret a bit AND reduce its turret rotation. The fact this thing swings it's turret around as fast as a light tank (preverbially speaking) is absolute nonsense.

@@skorpion7132 Nerfing the armor would be even easier than that. If the turret roof gets nerfed by 1(!)mm it's overmatchable by 120mm guns.

Yea, but atleast the tech tree variants dont have inpenetrable armor, so for them, they would have been more fair, look at the tier 8 BZ-166 that thing has huge cupolas. But the premium, nope, hit my 2mm cupole while I use my 10° of gun depression and wiggle around. Why do the BZ line even have so much gun depression, the chinese tanks are known for very bad gun depression. Makes no sense.

I sold mine when I cleaned out my garage. I basically play 2 or 3 tanks every now and then (I try to quit but can't...) I think I own 10 max tanks now.

So instead of fighting back you literally sabotage your own team and blame it on the bz. Good to know bro

@@arif11011 You know what ? I have more respect towards tier 5 premium arty players than BZ players. I just don't want to play with them (both with them and against them) and I generally don't want to have anything to do wit them. Generally, if I see that I may have a chance to have a nice game, when there is a BZ on my or in enemy team, I just try to make sure that I will go to the part of the map where there is no BZ. If BZ is on enemy team, I will wait a bit till some one spots it & then go where I won't fighting it. It works both ways, so if there is a BZ on my team, I will always go elsewhere so I won't be even supporting my teammate... cuz they don't need me anyway, remember ? They bought outrageous P2W stuff, so they will win on their own. By choosing BZ, not only they show a middle finger towards EVERYBODY in the match (both enemy & their team), but also they support the P2W stuff in WOT, so why should I support such team mates ? And if they are on enemy team, like I have said - I will ignore them, or if there is no way to ignore them I won't be the source of fun for them. Also, speaking of "sabotage your team"... how long do you play WOT ? Do you still believe that team matters ? WG tough me not to care if the game is won or lost. It is all RNG. They even admitted it. That mm is designed to "control" player's win ration and keep it in 49 - 50%. Team is an illusion. Especially if you have a mission to do & you have to fight your own team to meet the conditions.

@@Tommy_The_Gun dude just stop playing the game, you clearly believe that you can do nothing to help your team so all you do is sabotage it. That only helps the enemy. And yes i believe the team matters, when you get a good team with players who know what they are doing, you win. If you get noobs and new players who dont even know where a BZ's weakspots are then of course youll lose. I'm just an average player but ive carried my fair share of games where me and my teammates prevented a loss. You should try it, instead of asking why you should support your teammates

@@arif11011 I can not count how many times I carried the game too. I have like 32K battles & started playing in 2012. Carries did not happened often. Very rarely. But what does it matter now ? Right now it is just an old memory. A memory, cuz nowadays, the trend is if you are not a high-level p2w player (who buys every single loot box x 500), you won't be having all those "carries" any more. It just hurts me to see what has become of this game. Btw. "BZ's weakspots" 🤔 ?!... I mean it has 2-3 pixels of height of lower plate and 1 pixel of commander's hatch. G. That for sure is a weakspot... XD Anyway, you are right about one thing - I should stop playing WOT... just like all my friends who could not stand drastically growing level of P2W in WOT. I am the last of our bunch who is still playing, but well... it is about to change. A shame cuz more & more players are leaving... So um.... goodbye I guess.... oh and one more thing... for all of those BZ owners.... ekhem... (clears throat): "Good buy" .

Except that BZ-176 is more like a "budget" FV 183 (Deathstar) than a derp. While is says HE for its ammo, its practically just HESH.

@@skorpion7132 the whole line was to have alternative high calibre HE guns like the BZ-176. For example; BZ-75 was to have an alternative 180mm gun, a 1800 dmg round with 75mm pen and a 1050 damage round with 225mm pen. This was all canned after the BZ-176 showed it would ruin the game.

it has everything then just turbo xD it's kinda like cheiftain but buffed 100 times

And really, really good armor

@@FavkTheDemon its nothing like a chieftain , what are you yapping about

@@scrhymn You are right, it is even stronger tier per tier than Chieftain. Chieftain nowadays is overshadowed by many tanks with better DPM and speed, this tank can do everything in every situation, Chieftain has only one stronger point, it's 100% OP turret, but BZ turret armor is basically like 0,0000001% weaker, so yea.

​@@kostkacukru1776you are aware you can overmatch the turret of the bz quite reliably at t8 and above right? It also has a 20+ sec reload?

Funny, but sad.
