_______________________________________________________
World of Tanks is a Free 2 Play online game which is available as a free download. It is one of the best video games I have ever played and I fully recommend it.
I loved his expression when he used jingle’s line “guided by the ghost of
stalin” XD
Well, I guess it’s the fact the crew has any possible skill and perk that
made the tank look very good.
its russian not chinese, china buy tanks and copy them like they do with
cars.
The chinease is2 has plastic tracks, because… China
Looks excellent, would have prefered a tier 9 game though.. Just to see how
it performs against IS-8s, T-54s, and Fochs even though I got an idea about
it. Still, awesome tank preview :)
the fact the joke “stalin wood” for WT, and “Shells guided by stalin” for
WoT, prove Russian bias.. Those jokes wouldn’t exist if it wasn’t true.
Its not slow I have circled a kv4 in normal IS
its a kv-1s lol :)
Action starts at 6:20!
quickybaby is real gold noon.
Was the ISU-122S only released on the NA servers? None of the EU youtubers
have mentioned it.
in tier 8 and 9 matches i find playing the IS more like a medium tank or at
least in support of the mediums tend to work nicely for it
T29 or this one?
Will these Berlin trio tanks be removed from the shop after this event?
I expect Cromwell B will be nerfed and don’t want to buy it if this may
happen
+David Holland yes they will be removed.
Can you like me to where it says that? I Searched the store and other pages
and couldnt see anything
+David Holland Starts: Thursday, May 7, 04:20 PT (07:20 ET)
Ends: Friday, May 15, 04:20 PT (07:20 ET) This is the time they stop being
sold at and they call it rare tanks meaning limited time.
would you like to make a video about 343？
QB the one thing you forgot to mention is that the Chinese IS-2 gets a
250mm HEAT shell making it actually useful in tier 9 games.
guided by the hand of stalin…wtf?
Review T54 mod 1 please haha
QuickyBaby you forgot to mention the Chinese heat shells which are superior
compared to the Russian apcr shells :)
My druk, Stalin allvays on yorr side if he sees that the Communism in you
is stronk. So be a stronk Communist and Stalin’s smile vill bestow fery
stronk luck on yorr tank!
Hand of Stalin vill guide yorr shots straight into target. Armorr of yorr
tank vill absorb damage ant distribute it to starvink political dissidents
in remote areas of Siberia for the greater good of Revolution.
loving the daily uploads ;)
I don’t quite know why EU didn’t get all four tanks, but it’s a shame.
They’re all great. If they could get around to an American TD premium, that
would be great.
IS b or IS 6?
hummmmmmmmmm
Even tho I quit playing a few months ago i kinda want this IS-2, that way i
don’t have to buy back the IS or my chinese IS-2 but meh.
Good info but the in-game play is misleading. You’re playing with a WG
press account so your crew has ultra super skills and doesn’t accurately
represent the average player.
i love this IS2, played 14 games with it, only lost 2games
Looks like Wargaming & Gaijin both figured out that they can simply reskin
a standard vehicle, sell it as a premium, and plenty of whales will buy
it. More cash grab with minimum effort. Whatever else Wargaming may or
may not be, they’re good at cash grabs.
It’s a Soviet IS-2, which is awesome for my Soviet Heavy Crew (I already
own all the other USSR Heavy Premiums). It allows me to play as proper
brawler with that improved slope on the front glacis.
The 13 skill commander also helps a bit…
I didn’t like using the 122mm on the IS, so I stuck with the 100mm, and
played it like a medium. I finished up with a 60 percent win percentage
and really enjoyed playing it.
Doesn’t this is2 have preferential matchmaking along with the rudy and
Cromwell Berlin?
GG Dude :)
I know that this is just a preview, but since I do not know if QBs is
reviewing this tank in the future, I would prefer if he would show more
games.
I am thinking about one as a hightier, one as mid and the final one as
lowtier. It is a bit more representative than the current form, at least it
shows how a tank performs at the end of the food chain.^^
Every tank is performing well as a toptier (more or less).
That shot on the KV85 tho……
ISU 122s
New tank destrered
A bit unfair review, thinking they all have all crew skills unlocked. And
no normal player will experience driving the tank like that. Just saying.
16:17 mtls-1g14 tank?????
Reason why it is so accurate must be due to the fact you have a crew with
all the perks and skills in the game.
Check out the original IS 2 laying down the hurt in this replay:
http://wotreplays.com/site/1858877#self
Stronk Tenk!
WarGaming ran out of money for condoms, now they re-do old tanks and make
thousands out of that.
Wargaming.net – Let’s Pay
The Chinese IS-2 does not appear on the wot compare website isn’t it?
lol… QB can you mention whether these tier 7 or tier 6 vehicles meet +2
tier vehicles?
+Weizhi Liao The berlin trio does meet +2 tier vehicles, WG is actualy in
the process of removing the prem tanks with prem MM so these new tanks have
a normal MM. Also, they are basically an elited tank with some painjob on
it so there is no reason for it to have pref MM
+Ivica Mijatovic ok, just bc i think that is an important factor to decide
whether to buy a prem tank.
+Weizhi Liao All premium tanks introduced from now on (including the Berlin
trio) will have standard MM. There won’t be any new premiums with
preferential MM
+Stephen Green ok, thx
Does this tank have special matchmaking?
15:6 or 6:15.. typical result in 5x event.
If someone reply to this comment I will sub to QBTV
+miles francisco Only because it sounded like a dare. 😉
I so badly WANT trio, or at least the Cromwell, but I don’t NEED it and so
I can’t afford it. I hope it stays in the shop for a while.
It is more likely that WoT doesn’t put in the real stats that they give the
Russian units as opposed to the “Hand of Stalin”.
I do love me a good soviet heavy, but I already blew my budget on the
Cromwell B… A bit of a shame for this one looks worthy.
To avoid confuses with the names, they should have named the ‘Berlin’ IS-2
as IS-2m imho.
It looks so easy when you play.
OH GOD! The massacre! So many dead reds!
I am kind of pissed of that the Chinese IS-2 has 1 less gun depression.
Sometimes it can make a big difference having just that bit more of
depression. I won’t buy this one as I already have the Chinese one but I
still think it sucks.
Best thing about the tank…..Not sure. I found the pen so lackluster. also
the cupola is huge. did I mention the the cupola is huge?
+Matthew Devine When you main the American line, you get used to the
tumours hanging into your turret. Would explain why I do so well in the
Tiger P, lol.
The IS is an IS-2 original and the IS-2 is the IS-2 mod. 1944
+Gunslinger15 Yes, wot is so inaccurate for mounting the 122mm on an IS, as
the IS becomes the IS-2 when equip with that gun.
Exactly the IS-1 had the first iteration of the t34-85 D5-T which was a
subpar gun when on a tank
One thing I don’t like in my chinese IS-2: it’s gun doesn’t have that
Stalin’s blessing.
I got a 497 dmg role in my kv1s before it was tier 5
For a person like QB that already has been through the entire tech tree
it’s probably not that interesting but for a scrub like me it looks like a
great premium tank to have.
Hey quickybaby, are you going to do the review for ISU-122S premium TD? I
have my eye on it but want your expert opinion as to whether i should buy
it or not. Thanks.
+sparcerX get it trust its OPso far and its a beast
It was held back on the EU server
what about the ISU-122S?
+TheTemplarnight It was only released on NA servers EU didnt get ISU
+TheTemplarnight Maybe we got rudy couse of the polish guys, and in NA
where no one knows the series they get the ISU
+TheTemplarnight ISU-122S is insanely OP so far.
+TheMusicFanForEver77 NA got all four.
+Prince Vegeta lol what? its the same as the SU-152 and the su-122-44 is
one of the best tier 7s
How does quickybaby have his spotting range of his tanks shown on the map?
And how does he get to see the stats of players like that?
+Peart of Neils +TheTemplarnight Thanks guys. luv people like you 2.
helping other people .3.
+Raccoon or you can check his channel for his modpack, and you get all the
mods he use and a tutorial on how to install it 😉
Ill take a look
+Raccoonaccoon Dick Figures Fan!
+Justin Marciniec cool, me too 🙂
+QuickyBabyTV The replay is not a realistic result because of the press
account being used. It has maxed out crew which is not an accurate
representation.
Great tank
I wish he would be in 1st person and not “3rd person – We we we we”
+alexander1485 “we” is 1st person plural.
its annoying, he needs to say I more.
+alexander1485 It would be considered rude to speak the way you suggest. In
a formal presentation, it is better to say “we” instead of “I” and “one”
instead of “you”. It’s called the “Editorial We:
The Berlin trio is actually a quartet….
+alexander1485 only on the NA server
And sea server
or just shoot the lower plate :/
I hated the non-premium IS-2 (China) so not sure its worth the $35+ but the
paint is nice. Might hit like a truck but it bounces off other peoples
armor like a basketball too… horrid accuracy/aiming from what I recall
… Crom’s probably the better way to go imho.
I always joke about my russian gunners. You can have one game where your
shells seem to hit with laser precision every time, and the next you can’t
hit the side of a barn at 5 feet no matter how long or well you aim. I call
the latter condition VDRGS or vodka drinking russian gunner syndrome…
So the IS is the IS-2 mod. 1943 and the IS-2 is the IS-2 mod. 1944
+Rupert Sykes in the same way that a tiger is a tiger mod 42 and a tiger 2
is a tiger mod 43
+Rupert Sykes Also stock IS with 85 mm gun is an actual IS-1
Beautiful tank! Awesome looking machine.
2:43 look at top left corner.. YEP ITS THE EPIC QB PHOTO! :DD
Russian logic. The slope angling works! Now, lets slope every bit of our
future tanks projects!
+GreatLord Gywn. Have you? because on the wikipedia page it says nothing
about that sloping being an effective deflection mechanism.
+GreatLord Gywn. If it was it was probably a coincidence.
+EirikXL Yes, it could occasionally block other tank shells. But tanks
fighting each other in ww1 was extremely rare.
+GreatLord Gywn. I never said it was meant to block tank shells, I just
said the armour sloping was nothing but a fortunate design that happened to
be good at deflecting bullets, it wasn’t designed to do so.
+EirikXL Actually it was designed for that purpose. It was a utility tank,
meant to support infantry in the trenches and provide cover and covering
fire on assaults. The sloped design gave it that role. That’s why if you
look at later french tanks in the early 1930’s they were already working
and producing tanks that had sloped designs before the Russians did.
Any reason or explanation as to why the 122s isn’t being sold in the EU but
is in NA? I play on NA and was wondering if i should buy it… Doesn’t look
like i’ll be getting a guide for it though as the people I watch for these
things are QB, Jingles, and Foch.
If you were a good player you would seek out the answers by looking at its
stats and hidden ones
Shut up jisus
I kill you.
It’s just IS-2.
i thought it was kind of shitty that you didnt point out how the russian
is2 gets 10mms more front hull armour than the chinese version for some
reason
+DEANOGTO It’s not uncommon that countries “water down” their tanks before
exporting. But I can’t find any historical evidence to back this up 🙁 RU
bias? haha
+Yuxin Ma This reduction of frontal armor was probably due to the use of
HEAT at that time and also for the chinese terrain, you need a lighter,
more mobile tank, that would be more adequate for soft grounds etc. As far
as I know, the Chinese themselves reduced the frontal armor, not the
soviets.
At least that is my theory.
Be nice to see this on xbox version
We still have the KV-1S with all of its glory, so I’m not complaining.
You’re a Savage !
I wonder why the only non Berlin tank he has played on that account is the
MTLS-1G14. I don’t blame him for trying it, who would be able to resist?
Lol yah its really rare tank, never seen one
Soviet guns are infamous for being guided by a rather onesided
RNG-System…
+Scara and Spud You call it “Good” RNG, I call it suspiciously efficient on
my soviet tanks.
+Colonel Radec The laws of probability were just kind to you as an
individual. For every crazy hit you make, someone else misses or bounces an
aimed shot at 50 meters (like me or Scara and Spud).
+Miodrag Mijatović Maybe you are right. But as I said, I can only use my
personal experience as a factor.
+Colonel Radec Play 1000 games in them and you will see. Especially when
you are required to carry games in an IS-3, KV-3/4/5 or IS-4 or something.
+Colonel Radec I personally have ca. 70% hit rate in my IS/KV-3/KV-4
because I fully aim almost every shot and drive into peoples’ faces to fire
point-blank. Had I played them like my A-43 – firing clutch and on the move
all the time – my hit rate probably wouldn’t be higher than 50%,
considering the few games were I played Soviet heavies like that I missed
most of the shots.
Hey guys what is you favourite t7 heavy tank?
– IS-2!!!!!
Which one?
kappa
Not to mention the juicy cupola. Actually i had somr game with the tiger 1
and itbis super easy to penetrate an IS frontally. Not forget to mention
the 205 mm penn on the tiger 1. Good video by the way! THUMBS UP
Tiger I will have this for breakfast.
Unless he has cover
+Ammar Ashoor IS2 will need almost 4 shots (3,86 shots to be exact)) to
kill a tiger I. That will take aprox. 47 seconds. Tiger I need 5 shots
(5,33 to be exact) to kill a IS2 and will take 35 seconds to kill a IS2. So
on 1 vs 1 Tiger I , as i said , will eat Is2 for breakfast. It can brawl it
, it can snipe it do whatever it wants. But the purpose of IS2 is making
credits not transforming this game into pay to win. We had enough of OP
russian premiums (cough IS6 , SU100Y, SU122-44 ,etc)
+Claudiu Oroian All the IS2 has to do is only trade 1 shot for 1 shot to
win. Obviously if they’re sitting in the open shooting eachother, the tiger
can win, but the IS2 is more likely to penetrate his shots, bounce the
tiger, and pull back to reload.
+ColindaPieman Have you ever seen a sidescraping Tiger? Tiger has
absolutely no trouble penetrating the IS, even straight in the mantlet.
Meanwhile, IS has to aim to the slightest place in a sidescraping Tiger…
and hope it doesnt bounce…
Hilarious…but no. Your suggesting a tiger sidescraping would have high
armor at the cheeks of the hull, which isn’t true since I penetrate the
tiger 90% of the time
Tbh I dont really like how wargaming have made different versions off tanks
that r already in the game the cromwell IS & t34-85 r really good tanks so
why bring out premium versions off tanks that are already in the game???
Wargaming have really fucked me off with this berlin trio might as well
have called it 3 tanks u can get for free but now u can by them with gold
as jingles would put it wargaming your drunk go home but putting my
fealings aside what is the point in making 3 premium tanks off tanks that u
can get for free??? Anyone got an answer for that???
i really like this tank to be honest, ive had pretty good luck playing it
thus far (fingers crossed lol)
What is bothering me… is that do you get a FREE BIA, like you get with
Cromwell B? I see that your crew skills are somewhat weird, so what is the
REAL situation concerning the crew skills? Do they have extra skill or not?
+Kenliero The North American package says you do.With the Cromwell B I got
BIA at 100%, and could start the next skill.
+Kenliero You get free BIA and can, of course, immediately start training
your next crew skill with all of the Berlin ‘trio’ tanks.
+Kenliero
All the Berlin tanks get 100% first perk as BIA, I bought the trio on the
EU server, and all tanks had BIA crew.
100th like!
Beautiful tank! Any Russian tank is a favorite of mine, and will definitely
try go pick one of these up, it’s disadvantages are easily worked around.
Thanks for the outstanding videos again QB, gl gg all
Are those logs on the engine deck?? Great tank though!
Yeah 🙂 so if they got stuck in mud they would be able to get themselves
out!
Very clever
+Sean Curwen it’s stalin wood, for most of the russian tanks!
STRONK STALINWOOD
+Sean Curwen I thought it was fuel tanks… but I’ll go with stalin wood.
Why are you not doing the 152S? It’s for sale on the NA servers, got one
myself and it’s fantastic.
+mynameisray WG not sell isu122s on the EU server
Meh
Hey QB, I can’t find a helpful answer anywhere and know that you can help
me. I’m planning on going to tank fest this year and was wondering where
you can camp around the site. I know you can’t camp on site exactly, but
I’ve heard there are local areas nearby. The Tank Museum staff have been
helpful with all my questions except this one, it seems they refuse to tell
me and just keep redirecting me to a sponsored hotel/B&B website which I
don’t want to book at, and can see nothing on the site about camping either.
So, where did you camp out last time for Tankfest 2014 with Ik, Peppy, and
yourself? I really want to go for both days to meet people like you and
Jingles, roam around the museum, see what WG have to offer as well, etc. as
it’s my first time going there since I was very young, and since then I’ve
grew very fond of tanks 😀
Cheers for any help in advance
+Vaas Montenegro Google is your friend. Google campsites around Bovington
in the UK
Hhh
Below 301 ! Ohhh yeah!
Going to hell for that …
almost first xD
Here is the final link in the Berlin Trio, let me know if you think it is
worth the price tag or if this re-skin will be one you avoid!
I’m In Belarus till next week on holiday and will resume content then, have
a lovely weekend!
+Cameron Boyce
WG fucking over EU as usual, paid more for the trio than NA pay for all 4,
because EU gets bundled with gold that no one wants…
+QuickyBabyTV what about the ISU-122S ? will you do a preview about that
tank?
+Matty S
If you bought them individually they came with gold. if you bought them as
the four pack you got 30 days premium instead of gold. I imagine this is a
way for making up for opening up the Pz II J for purchase on the EU server
but not the NA the other month or so back.
Have a great weekend too!
+QuickyBabyTV My druk, Stalin allvays on yorr side if he sees that the

Well done WG, giving people a link to the video before it is released :P
