When people talk about the KV, it seems they forget that there were 2 types of tanks back then. Arty's and their targets. Back then it was common 5 arty in each team.
One time, and just one time I was crossing mountain pass and there was an enemy T-34-85M crossing with only the cupola showing up and I shot while moving and killed him with a single shell, that was the most satisfying RNG shot I ever had.
tried the kv2 got lakeville, saw elc in mid, disappeared so i blinded, on the move going to city south spawn, full bloom and one shotted the elc bis. kv2 very "balanced"
One thing I miss the most is the old HE mechanic I remember I got the Cruiser mk II with is 3.7 inch howitzer and get a double kill by accident Nowadays only artillery gets to do bombardier medal not derp tanks like KV-2 or O-I or SU-152 ....
I LOVED the Cruiser II with the tier V derp! Back in the days of all chat, I 1-shot a Chi-Nu shortly after the Japanese tanks went into the game. He was cussing me out in chat, but when I told him that the tank had a derp, he couldn't believe it. One of the most glorious HE shots I've gotten over the years. Was absolutely hilarious.
I remember getting my KV 2 match featured in an old Mighty Jingles Why You Heff to be Mad Compilation where I got Tank Sniper on Fisherman's Bay, with the final shot being a killing shot on a moving, near full health Su 101 at around 500m range (Why you Heff to be Mad 9 iirc, which is blocked in the US on fucking copyright grounds), good times.
My most amazing KV-2 RNG moment was on El Haluf. Right at the start of the match as i was driving to the heavy hill i dumped a random blind shot over to the other side and 1 shot a hellcat. Needless to say he was not happy.
Remember the old HE mechanic you can get a bombardier medal just by splash 2 tanks sitting next to each other ? Those days are long gone and I miss playing my KV-13 with is 122mm derp gun ....
Still my most played tank, the other day I was in a Tier 8 game in it and came up against a BZ-176, Put two AP shells into him, one in the side and one overmatch top of his turret, I still died but I brought that OP garbage down to a one-shot and my team took him out shortly after, show that even in a bad match-up this thing can still have an impact
@@astatine3871 Just pointing out the irony of complaining about "OP Garbage" BZ-176 while playing KV-2, a tank that while two tiers lower has higher alpha than the BZ and can apparently almost 2 shot it. Both are OP, but if anything the KV-2 is more OP in its tier.
imagine the Crusader taking the same fall at the end of the game, that would have been hilarious . Nice game and a great turnaround after a crappy start
There’s a premium version of the kv2 in console version. It has the derp gun as well BUT it’s tier 7, it’s faster than the tech tree variant, and it’s also Chinese not Russian. It’s black with a big red star painted on the turret and it’s got a cool segmented muzzle break.
This tank, once in a while, gifts me so much derpy-fun. recently 6 "Boo-Ya!" kills with just 6-shots. some matches that phat stubby gun is just laser accurate.
06:37 - I know that this is not the case. That's why it's called the overmatch mechanic. In case of the 152mm calibre, you auto-penetrate any plate that is at most 50.66mm thick, when you're using AP.
The old HE meant that this was a consistent tank since you can always do damage when you hit. Now it feels like you need a “good” crew since you need intuition to be flexible, but still, even with the HE nerfs the KV2 still seems to do okay
I once play UDES 16, try my last shot as I know that I will be spotted in flat-open position, but some how block 2k dmg on 10s and many shot that do not hit me. Then return back to safety position.
This is rare for a QB video, no views and no comments, so let me be the first person to, nice KV2 replay, you really challenged the challenger there ( pun intended)😂
Overmatch does not guarantee penetration. 50 mm plates are overmatched by 150+ mm guns, but you still need to penetrate. E.g. if the angle of attack is 80°, then the effective armor is nearly 300 mm, there is no way the KV-2 reaches that with its 136 mm pen. Basically there is a very thin margin where overmatch does anything for you in the KV-2 against 50 mm plates, and only when you get a high pen roll.
Still not 30mm tho. Master frampton was feeding the padawans false information. Gamedweller strikes again. Me driving in my arl 44 watching all the shitters try and overmatch my side with their new t-34-85M because they saw master frampton do it: *Laughs in seal club*
Ok, so if I still have to pen the armor at an angle (as in, the pen of my shell has to be greater than the armor + angle making it essentially more armor) than what does the overmatching mechanic actually do? Let me rephrase: if I need X pen to get a successful shot at a Y plate how does this situation differ from a regular shot against the same plate with the same shell pen from a lower caliber?
I will solve this for you. To put it simply, overmatch removes the auto ricochet mechanic. QB is actually correct in saying you still have to pen the armour thickness. (Get ready for a wall of text about mechanics and shit) So QB is correct in theory, it’s just in practice it will virtually never happen, because if you have a shell that has calibre to overmatch, it should always have enough pen to go through the armour even at that angle tier for tier. So we have to go to low tier… One example I found was this, *an FV4005 getting shot by basically any tier 1 or 2 gun* . The fact it is apcr and not AP is very important… So let’s use the vickers medium with stock gun + ap has 38 pen which can easily overmatch the fv4005s 14mm side armour with its 47mm calibre gun. But 14mm at 87 degrees is more effective than 38mm of pen, but thanks to APs normalisation, it goes in just fine. With apcr however, despite going up to 60mm of pen, at 87 degrees, 14mm of armour is thicker than 60mm, because apcr has much less normalisation than AP. So there you have it. Even if you can overmatch a plate, you still have to pen it. Again I can only apologise for the huge wall of text.
@@MrFatShanksThx for the wall of text. So, still not sure if I have it right, it basically means that at some extreme angles (75+ ?)instead of an auto bounce the pen value is checked against the armor value?
Hey Quickybaby hope you see this comment, recently there has been games where you will notice that the enemy has eyes on you even though your unspotted. been having this in my tier 8+ games and im just done playing. hope you can tell WarGaming that the Xray/Wallhacks are back.
Still amazes me how you can trundle a big hulking monster of a tank all over the map in that manner and not get wiped out in a blink. I don't have a KV2 but trust me even with my smaller mounts, I still am whackamoled even if I so much as dare peep. I know what you'll say: go learn the maps better. Sigh! Maybe I will.
yah i like my kv2 but its crazy how i can hit a light tank flying past me...........but i cant hit a tank sideways Not moving right next to me .. fully aimed
When you compare the buff the KV2 gun got with the HE changes compared to the nerf tanks like the OHO and Type 5 got on their derps its really obvious how biased this developer is.
Since WG brought in WOT plus here on NA the game is unplayable -I've gone from spotting on average close to 3000 to less than 1000 playing as a light tank - Good to see the players on warships game giving it negative reviews on steam because of the way WG is ruining things there
That moment when QB realised he can make a dozen videos of the story of a tank called the KV and then digress about intuition, then digress about how often he digresses, and then post it online and call it content lmao. I’m just memeing QB don’t take me seriously :)
Gold ammo is kind of a joke with its 130mm of pen. Its more about overmatch. 130 pen is not enough in most situations. Its sad how wg absolutely buchered all the derp guns. No real choise of guns now. Derp is just not worth it most of the time. 103mm 300damage gun has better pen better reload better handling and 90% of the time does more damage. On the techtree tank atleast i feel sorry for all the people who payed to have this king of derp only to have it become uterly shit tank just because of the he rework.
QB every time there's a KV-2 on the screen: "Well, young players, let me tell you a story about a tank called 'KV'"
IKR
Lol, so true
It's the one that everyone wants!
When people talk about the KV, it seems they forget that there were 2 types of tanks back then. Arty's and their targets. Back then it was common 5 arty in each team.
Just wait until its another T95 video and he has to talk about how slow it used to be as he slowly crawls in position in-game
This was brutal seen in the stream. Such a monster carry and how everything worked for the KV2. RNG at its best.
Yeah, that is why I don't play KV-2 that much.
I love the thing, but for one game half a good as that there are hundreds of frustration.
idiot wg carry this game

For every game like this, there are 3 games where nothing pens and tier 8 heavies have you for a snack.

QB can you put colourblind mode on for those of us who find red and brown and green really difficult to see a highlighted tank in.

69 HP works like a charm.

Thanks!
that was fun to watch
Just curious- Is vodka still a premium consumable for the KV-2?
Arl 44 has 60mm of side armour
yes thats true so how did he overmatch him with a 152mm gun?
It's 50 mm at the upper part of the side armor. He must have hit that
Still not 30mm tho. Master frampton was feeding the padawans false information. Gamedweller strikes again.
