Loved this tank back in the day, when and just after it was the top tier at 9. Even through the various nerfs/buffs it had, but it just fell so far behind the curve (like most tanks in the tech tree).
I remember this tank got huge nerf around 2016, it was like impenetrable lower plate, true side scrape master and then they ruined it meanwhile introducing Chrysler to the game XD
@@laszlopap8271 "HE" ammo with almost the same pen as all the tier 8 premium tanks regular rounds. In fact, it has almost the same pen as the FV4005's Hesh.

@@laszlopap8271 If WoT cared about the balance of their game, they would have never made the stats for the BZ-176 the way it was. You can't blame players for buying something that would make them more competitive in a "competitive" game.
@@AlteraLin THATS the exact problem...As long as there is demand for such "competitive" cr@p as BZ, there always will be supply as well...Just like the "prostitute-industry", black market for organs, rare animals, endangered plants, etc. ...
I remember playing this tank and I actually enjoyed it. This was before the E-75 buffs though and I checked the stats and boy, it's not looking great anymore. The E-75 has the same exact gun but has 530 alpha instead of the 490. And has better aimtime. Like what? The things I would change on this tank to make it more competitive is to buff the gun (maybe alpha, maybe dpm) but the main problem (It was like that when I played it and it still sucks) is the turret armor. It's 265 flat. So anyone who loads the gold can go through that. And no matter how good you are sidescraping if they can pen the turret. The other change is the front armor. I remember it was like that some day but they changed it. Why isn't the machinegunport not a weakspot?! They should lower it to 180 mm while buffing the rest of the upperplate to something like 220 mm or so. That would reward the knowledgeable players. But to be honest it's the same with the tier 10. Everyone just shoots you in the face without any knowledge and since the gunmantlet is cheese they pen. I wish they gave more love to german tanks :/
Still remember back in the days when I was chilling in my Jagdpanzer IV in bush at the middle of lakeville and this thing went through the middle road and appeared in front of me, I panicked (no gold back then) a little, then I shoot his gunner hatch and lit in on fire and he burned down... ah... that were times. :P
0:00 Good day, im ready for my second dose! to be honest im still a bit lazy but after this video i will start learning for my exam, i promise! lets go!
Back in the day i did ny blocking missions with that tank. Blocked 13k with it and I did not have a clue how i did it because at that time i had no clue on how to play heavy.
I sincelery hope WG will buff the Slipper since they did a good job on the tier 8 predecessor VK4502A which is quite enjoyable now. I just bought this Slipper in the Top of the Tree discounts but I'm not looking forward to play it until its buffed XXD
Even if it is not so popular, i see people still playing with it and one specific player in todays match managed to do 9 kills and 8k dmg:;D just avoiding hull down and more using flat ground and you ll be fine:D
Seems to me that when we play slow tanks... we tend to make more mistakes ... I guess because your in a hurry to get to where damage is and take shorter and more open routes and just hope the armor will hold up some ?? I'd say very fast tanks are similar in the fact they give you a false since of security that your to fast to be hit easily ? Just a Thought .. God Vids AND nice to see the index getting updated :)
the reason this tank feels so toothless nowadays is because the 15-3 rapid battles always force this tank out of it's comfort zone, meaning you have to do risky and stupid stuff if you don't want to end your battle with 2-3 shots of damage this whole 15-3 trend is just making everything annoying and it actually wastes more time despite taking up less time, it makes personal missions more difficult, it makes marking tanks more difficult, it makes grinding xp more difficult with certain tanks and most improtantly it makes enjoying the game faaaar more difficult since it's a coinflip whether you get a 4 minute battle or a 10 minute one, and unless you are in the most competitive tanks it will be irrelevant which side of the 15-3 teams you are on
There are algorithms, that have been deleted, for real matchmaking ! You have played long enough to know this. However, those did NOT make enough Coin for the Conmen, latest owners. So, here we are. Playing a game, to line the pockets, of thieves. It is just what it is. As you say.
I was thinking about re-purchasing this tank but my garage is already full of tanks that _were_ really good. This is why I highly recommend people don't play WOT. Ten years of of what is now junk in the garage. Find another game, folks.
This was my "baby" for the longest time, but alas all good things must come to an end. Wargaming nerfed this, and with all the new 'beast' heavies running around it is basically obsolete. Too slow at every turn (gun reloading, speed, traverse, etc.), just not competitive unless you are top tier. Basically keep it and take it out every now and then for the nostalgia. Open maps are the absolute worst, especially with arty. Sad.
What a bullshit lol Going with a logic like "this tank is bad cause it competes with whatever other tank" is nonsensical. Thinking like that, there would be no need to play any other tank except the strongest one in a given class since all the others in that class would be automated considered "bad". Kek
Skill . I'm sorry but you're wrong !!! E 75 is good but for me I would say it VK 45.02 B is better Whenever i'm in a game with VK 45.02 B E 75 struggles against me i like to be in the game with VK 75.01 (K) or VK 45.02 B whenever I went 1v1 with VK 45.02 B against E 75 I always came out on top so you can't say it's bad in good hands it's a GOD tank
It is so wierd to listen to him, the grammar is good , even some yeep hooray, but the accent, what is that?? I cannot understand, is he russian? Cuz i speak russian natively and i cannot figure it
Its not fair calling good tanks Soviet and OP tanks Russian, as i said in your previous video, but you deleted my comment. Its a parade example of hypocrisy! Especially when you ban everything involving politics on twitch but you express politic bias in subtle ways! Cheers my man!
once brilliant armor, impenetrable lower plate, now not the same.
Only the og knew
Back in 2014 this tank was scary to face
It also doesn't helps that WG buffed E75 multiples times like buffing the alpha damage while VK remained the same
once "impenetrable armor" with proper weakspots. Now "impenetrable armor" unless you load gold...
This tank makes -1,060 profit, E75 makes -9352. Main reason why would you want to play this tank instead of E75.
I remember when this thing could bounce Tier X TDs off of its lower plate. Those were the days...

The Best intro 😂 like it brings me bad memory about slipper Also the VK 45.02 is criminally underrated

Yeah, and I do believe they need to change the gun from Maus and Mauschen gun to Panzer 7.
Every german heavy has easy pennable turret if it is looking at you, which is kind of sad since they can only angle and not defend themselfs.
They just overbuffed 12.8cm gun on e75 and e100. E-75 is kinda op now, while this tank remained unchanged and mediocre
@@helpinghelper4151 they should at least buff his Alpha like E75
i never understood why they buffed the e75 way back then but not the vkb.
4:25 Jagdtiger is like a beer in the middle of the forest
sounds VERY dangerous 😀

Vk45.02 needs a little buff for better sidescrap
530 alpha would do the trick
I agree with you but
Gold ammo and proly Hesh Round would say buff all you want i can pen ez
@@kosztypatrik7028 Practically the same gun as Panzer 7.
Slipper is such a gentle name for this mighty shoe lol
Before 1.0 the VK and STI were SuperHeavys
Like a beer in the middle of the forest. I need my beer spray.
Back in the day i did ny blocking missions with that tank. Blocked 13k with it and I did not have a clue how i did it because at that time i had no clue on how to play heavy.
if e75 didnt got bufferd in gun dmg and frontal turret armor the vk.54.02b would be better
Yeah. E75 was basically overbuffed while they didn't do anything for the VK
6:52 G.W. Tiger P made a double kill on T32 and IS-3 II after being destroyed lol
I sincelery hope WG will buff the Slipper since they did a good job on the tier 8 predecessor VK4502A which is quite enjoyable now. I just bought this Slipper in the Top of the Tree discounts but I'm not looking forward to play it until its buffed XXD
I love this tank. It never fails to entertain.
On empires border pretty much any slowish heavy will suck from that spawn, not just this tank
How dare u skill. STA-2 is waiting for so long to be once again in TH-cam video. STA-2 is sad now. What have u done. Hes gonna commit sudoku.
Well, éven TVP VTU is out of comission😢
Even if it is not so popular, i see people still playing with it and one specific player in todays match managed to do 9 kills and 8k dmg:;D just avoiding hull down and more using flat ground and you ll be fine:D

Scare the pears got me rollin 🍐 🤣🤣
Type 61, my 9th day in a row requesting. I will keep going, it’s been over 2 and a half years since the video.
@@MS-ze7yk doesn't mean I can't convince him to post it faster, and yes I already knew that.
nice choice of footwear my king! love you man
Thumbs up for that intro!!!
I believe the VK 45.02 B would been better if the top gun would have the same gun as Panzer 7.
It they just gave it the E 75's turret and gun that'd be enough to make it competitive again.
It would be also good to give panzer 7 pre nerf stats back atleast that
I thought the obj 416 was the slipper...😮
Its a frying pan
Hello skill greetings from croatian prison Lepoglava
That intro was awesome and from now on we need similar intros for new videos.
I still like this tank more that E75... 😀
Skieeeeeeeel what about t20? last video about this beauty was in 2021, pretty please
Best intro ever xD :D :D

Its not VK its vakaa
Why nerf the ficitonal tank though.. WG just remove the only gem on the unit.
Nice slipper.. Are your feet small..lol German heavy line of meatballs..! Vk b is like grille.. limited traverse level ground toys....
Its sad how good this tank's armour used to be :(((

Skeeeeeeeeel pan object 416 day 1 :D
Why did you rated it 2 stars on Skill4u Index while giving it 2 four stars, 2 three stars and 2 two stars ? Shouldn't it be average ?
that intro haha
"3k dmg for a typical T9 it would be a bad score" I would be very happy with 3k avg dmg for T9 tanks... 😅
PURFEKT!
More gold to play to win !!
Hate round two map band for life

north face ? more like no face 😜😜
Hard dissagree.
This is a 4.2/5 tank
Though I agree the E-75 is still better

Lmao, I played some Frontline today.
This game mode is just as dumb as wg decision makers.
Used to call the T-100 LT the slipper not the VK
T-100 LT is sandal

like for intro
Seriously it's tiers 8.5, not 9... too old.
Skill . I'm sorry but you're wrong !!! E 75 is good but for me I would say it VK 45.02 B is better
Whenever i'm in a game with VK 45.02 B E 75 struggles against me
i like to be in the game with VK 75.01 (K) or VK 45.02 B
whenever I went 1v1 with VK 45.02 B against E 75 I always came out on top so you can't say it's bad in good hands it's a GOD tank
I mean, 95% of E75 players are complete garbage so you can win against one even with a t7 tank...
afraid of jtiger????? never more, he is tooooooo bad
It is so wierd to listen to him, the grammar is good , even some yeep hooray, but the accent, what is that?? I cannot understand, is he russian? Cuz i speak russian natively and i cannot figure it
bad tank

I last played it back in 2016, and it recieved some buffs, so its armor was very good. Did they nerfed this tank?
