If you're interested you can find it here: ►bit.ly/10-Years-of-QuickyBaby-GOLD
The Gold Foil Edition will only be available until the 7th of June. If you don't like gold then there's other colours and designs available here: ►goo.gl/s2OINq
Thanks in advance to anyone who picks one up it's been a pleasure to be dominating the battlefield for a decade and can't wait for the next 10!
I'm so scared for my E 50. It's gonna get ripped apart
thanks for the video QB, I've seen a few of these running around yesterday and had no idea what they were and how to deal with them if I had to fight one. Now I do. Thanks again.
thx for your tremendous effort to support the players of this game . this review did explain quite a bit . be well and stay loose . sir
Definitely fun and quirky, that's for sure
Keep up the good work !
How dare he not use cobra commander in this tank
It's blasphemy
He doesn't have it on his na server.
Well, he is annoying, but point taken
@@Star_Gazing_Coffee_Lover oh didnt know that

Imagine this tank fighting against tier 7's. The 210 mm of HESH penetration is more than enough. You will be killing 1-2 tanks with every single magazine.
That was my first thought when I saw QB's material as well...
This tank should have officially special MM = +1/-1
Yup just happened to me, I did t know what it was a googled what it was lol
@@norbertsieniawski6768 It is way too good for tier 8
@@Interdiction That's why it's a tier 9 ;-)
What I like about world of tanks is that if they do put in a really overpowered tank..the player bases in a way can do their own quote on quote nerf by focusing it
What I take away from this video is that Wargaming are getting closer and closer to bringing back the WT E100.
Please! It can be nerfed for all I care I just want it back 😭
@@leosanchez101 why?
@@leosanchez101 I was so anxious about getting it then I got it then they removed it from the game a month later, I was so angry.
Oh I hope
Pretty sure this thing could 1v1 a WT E100 and win
The fun thing about the cobra is that despite being a big medium and having a 120mm gun it somehow has better after shot Camo then the Bc 25t AP which is both smaller and only uses a 100mm gun.... how can that be???
You have to ask?
@@jefftheriault3914 I think WG forgot to change the aftershot camo on the gun as they added it to med tanks.
"WG's way of balance"
WG logic.
Science
I watched the whole stream, It was amazing. That horseshoe on the turret at 26:12 is upside down, it means no luck
I was thinking the same thing about the horseshoe
That's not true some people say the devil will sit in it if it's upwards.. just depends what u like to say
Thought the same thing...in Denmark many old houses has horseshoes nailed above the doors. But they have to be with the opening up (sp the luck doesnt spill out according to superstition) :-)
No, that is the proper way a horseshoe is hung outsdie of a smithy.
So any luck, knowledge and fortune falls down onto those underneath.
Also a horseshoe is supposed to be lucky because it is able to withstand fire.
Having it as a 'cup' is a more modern mode associated with crap like religion.
@@soopafamicom "proper way"....lol
On larger maps, I would run optics, vert stabs, and aiming device or GLD. On smaller maps where optics aren’t necessary, I would run aiming device, GLD, and vert stabs. With a 50 second reload and low DPM, you really can’t afford to miss shots so improving gun handling is far more important than turbo.
I'd go with IRM over aiming device. This tank is for close quarters and isn't really meant to snipe. Decreasing the bloom after firing with IRM + Vstabs is more valuable than the miniscule improvement you get with an aiming device. VStab, IRM and Vents is what I'll be using on most maps.
For the horse shoe to be good luck it needs to be facing up, round end down, or so the old superstition goes.
in other countries I think it is different.
Yeah, cause otherwise all the luck falls out!
I was looking for this comment.

I,m not sure but could it be a British thing? Thet drive on the wrong side of the road so maby an upside down hors shoe i UK means god luck 🤔🤪
I loved the format of this video showing clips of games instead of entire games. Shows how the Cobra excels and struggles in different maps/situations :P Keep it up!
5 cobras vs 5 cobras every game. Close combat killers will swarm. But it is ok, it will take 2 years for majority to learn to play this linkor. Ah, the heavy meta will continue for longer time
Time for WT auf E100 to come back in the game again. Wouldn't really make much of a difference with intuition and all that
Yeah wt Auf e 100 would fit in the game now w power creep
I haven't played WOT since 2018 but i'm still watching QB and frankly, i'm never gonna play this game again
No one cares.
Haha, Same here. Game is just sadly too much designed around monetization instead of a good experience.
@@jagerdergroe8604 If you dont care then why bother saying "no one cares". You just make yourself look toxic.. M
I am struggling with the Caliban nevermind the Cobra.
Caught a Cobra earlier on a reload with my Shrek. Just able to bang it out.
Thing is you have all the toys and the crew. Not many will have that luxury so I don't think we will see many on the battlefield as it is going to be too much of a learning curve for many players, just the masochists.
QB, one of your best videos of all time. I passed on the Cobra last year, but may, mind you may, pick one up this year. Wishing you ten more years of Joy.
This tank forces you to get up close and personal which can definitely get you punished if you make the wrong pushes.
Agreed, but if you do make that push right then you will get some amazing results with that 1,5second intra-clip reload.
Haha, yeah a couple tried that against me in my full health E-100, then in my full health maus, lol, yeah didn’t work out for them at all, got one Heat pen on me, the other was shooting HESH, at the side of my Maus, as I rotated to counter him…yeah, he did pretty much nothing, and then I shot/rammed them to death very quickly, haha. Don’t know why they both tried that solo…
man even with the field mods and rot dev, its still a crazy bloom after firing, if the accuracy was any better this thing would be so.... voracious
How is a pixel tank truthful?
Probably means voracious
@@ludovitkramar7088 I did, ty vm
The tank ist really not op, but it will make the game even faster. You either kill an enemy in no time, or you fail and get clapped yourself quickly. Wargaming on its way to 3 min average game duration
Isn't it already like that🤣
@@user-gc9ym7cz4n why
I think that's the goal. Less & less players. Quicker games mean less time between waits.
I was smiling throughout this whole video. QB's commentary genuinely made me laugh when he clapping the enemy team.
They should add Sylvester Stallone as a commander for this tank saying after the kill "You're the disease and I'm the cure"
Congrats on 10 years! I gave up on the game years ago but still sub and watch and like your videos because of the quality of your content. Keep it going for as long as you enjoy it! Best of luck!
Idk why do ppl have the need to tell other ppl they stoped playing, nobody cares dude, literally nobody.
That was one of your best reviews ever, MrQuacky 👍
Hi QB, given the extremely long aiming time, would you consider using a stabilizer and the "aiming time" device? just to make it shorter, and then vents or optics depending on map.. it would minimize the biggest drawback of the aiming time and the blooming, right?
I wasn't paying attention well when you went through the stats, but for a moment this was sounding like a tier 9 T57 Heavy. The damage per clip is close and faster with nearly as good pen, but the total reload is huge. Though I would say as a T57 I think I would still hate to fight against this tank especially if they have some distance near the end of a battle. If RNG favors the cobra it could clip any other tank from a reasonable distance. Not OP, but the right situations will work really well for it.
The T57 reloads in half the time, 25 seconds vs 50.
@@timlancing1808 he said the reload is huge
this is more like a VZ 55 while using gold rounds with better intra clip AND a bigger magazine
well done WG, balanced tank
almost like a wt auf e100 of tier 9
Perfect review. it was one of the most detailed review i have ever seen. Great job
I love to see the passion he has for this tank
What strikes me the most is how gentle people on NA server are compared to EU. Like the T49 who asks: 'Cobra, ping map where you need me', thats some team spirit we lack on our EU server.
Didn't jingles make a video of us in WoWs being polite? Lol
i feel like it's because NA is way less countries, while here we have several countries with different languages and such. I RARELY meet english speakers
Full gold yeah is definitely the way to go with this tank. Heat has terrible shell velocity, hesh has good enough pen for a lot of tanks and better velocity for distance and clutch shots
yeah no full gold in this tank will be equivalent to going full retard in this tank. 210mm is not enough to pen equal, and especially higher tiered, heavy tanks frontally. And to fight heavily armored vehicles you will need the HEAT ammo. And in mid-to-close-quarters-combat shell velocity is irrelevant.
About that horseshoe, when they are hung upsidedown all the luck runs out. That's why we always hang them the other way, at least out west we do.
Thank's for another informitive review. Well done.
QuickyBaby, loved how you used different clips from diff games to show the diff scenarios this tank will have or be caught in. Much better than having to watch the whole videos. Much appreciated
KillaBeezz NA
This is exactly why each game is down to about 3-5 minutes on average. It is becoming Mario Kart with tank shells.
Excellent review of the Cobra. Thanks QB.
Hey @QuickyBaby I've been having a bit of an issue with the battlepasses in the past.. I usually don't play enough to "unlock" much however I'd love to get this tank.. but as far as I can count I can only buy up to 21 tokens however I would prefer to just grind for it.. how long would it approx take for a medium to shitty player?
Hey, that PlayingWithTanks fella on highway was me! Good tank review!
I have never even played this game, but I enjoy watching this guys videos.
How do I get it so my red enemy outline shows shaded area that means target obstructed, like QB has? It seems to be very useful to have.
I had the same situation on the beach while I was in a Concept 1B against the Cobra. But he was hiding in the far back wasting all his time aiming and shooting gold rounds when I pushed over to kill his HT teammates. I realised he was on a reload and I just went in to charge him directly. lol it's not about the tank, but the player. so well-played in the games you displayed.
is there a way to become the Cobra in this Season of the battelpass so without playing the last battelpass
Nah drop Turbo for Rotation. Its all about that gun. Need to do everything to minimize that crazy aim time.
That horse shoe. On the turret front is placed in the "luck drains out" position. The horns need to point upwards to keep the luck in.
No, that is the proper way a horseshoe is hung outsdie of a smithy.
So any luck, knowledge and fortune falls down onto those underneath.
Also a horseshoe is supposed to be lucky because it is able to withstand fire.
Having it as a 'cup' is a more modern mode associated with crap like religion.
40:12
look at the chat, wish that there are more players like that t49 around. Players who are actually willing to have teamwork with rando's which has become rare for so many years now
What do you think about credit maker with this tank ? Is it good ?
Finally A review of the Cobra
How do i get the Cobra? Its 28 markers, have to wait to next season?
Hi QuickyBaby! I always liked your tech tree reviews, especially helpfull when I want to start a new one. However, some of these are already many years old. Is it maybe an idea to do some of the older ones again, so they are more up to date? Would especially like the czech one
Is it still possible to get this tank If I spend all of my tokens on a Kunze?
In 2 years the New Autoloaders are gonna do 4000 damage in 3 seconds
nah they will be firing tac. nukes that will take out 15 players just when the game starts.
@@anthonyhowrard526 you jest, yet on WOT console we have a modern tank mode which is separate to the WW2 mode (Cold War), with tanks that fire homing missiles.
I wouldn't put it past WG 😆
I devastated a 121 early last night. He seemed shocked that I hit him for 1900. He tried to backup quick too late. Actually in my na chat I mentioned it felt like the banned auf e 100. A mini version of the banned tank
That horseshoe is upside down and is therefore not a good luck symbol, it's a bad luck symbol.
Would gld instead of vents be viable? I know it's usually not recommended, but that aiming time...
so at least this Tank is more worth (for me) to get as the Lorr 50t.
tank you Mr. QB for speending some of ure Money to show this in the Stream to us and to make this review possible!
and i forgott.. i cant wait for the next !Polltanks :)
I was able to annihilate an Obj, 430 side scraped with the HESH rounds. Penetrated on the inner side of his tracks. It was amazing.
would that not be 4.68 sec longer reload for not taking the reload speed ?
It's not a WTF100, main difference being the WTF had high pen (350-ish?), high damage (560), and high velocity (1200ms) all in one and the same round. The Cobra has to choose the right round for the right target.
WTF100 was an insane gun on the most terrible platform. This actually has a workable platform. This is probably much better tier for tier than the WTF E100 was.
Not everything is about the gun
I am 3 tokens short from getting the cobra , any idea how i can earn them ? I'm done all three battle passes ?
It reminds me of the strv at t6. Not the 74. It doesn't seem British. This and the centurion line are so different. Wot wanted a good intraclip reload after the new td line
Played against one last night. It was a Massive pain
Now that this is released, which of the tanks for coins is the best?
11:32 that face tho!😂
I just love the Foch b because it can 1 clip a kran
With experimental T3 mobility equipment on this tank the traverse is crazy - even hard to drive lol.
Love this tank. Probably my favourite at the moment
I'm going to be getting this tank just waiting till I'm able to get on
21:15 lol charlemagne's shot sounds like rocket launcher XD
Meme tank ✅
British ✅
Needs to get close ✅
Can be obtained F2P ✅
Definitely my kind of tank!
I don’t think you need turbo on it, cause you have a long reload, so being to fast on position is useless. The traverse speed is actually great and gun handling has to be upgraded before speed
my FV4005 : Hmmmmmm... this guy's entire clip put my HESH to shame
When they buff the caliban from tier 8 become tier 9, and fellas we have cobra xd
Less pen, more damage. The way all (or most) rounds in WoT should work
Having played the caliban and seen this video, definitely not getting this. This, like every HE tank that doesn’t start with FV, seems like a super situational and frustrating tank
the next seal clubber in skilled hands, GJ WG, feed the already great players...
Qb was extremely giddy when he showed that gsor and bourrasque their place
Great video, i like this tank!
@26:00 the Horseshoe is upside down. In order for a Horseshoe to catch the luck raining down. It needs to LOOK like a cup, and not like a spilled-out cup. It is an easy misconception of the Horseshoe. But the hang of the Horseshoe either catches the luck or dumps it out.
I'm 65-Y/O. I learned this from a very old Farm-Girl maybe 80+Y/O, when I was 7-8 Y/O. I remember because I couldn't figure out how you can hang it on a nail like that... That's when she showed me the holes in all Horseshoes. "Ya need two small nails, but that's how ya hang a Horseshoe". She said. Then she added... "But keep an eye on it over the years, because one small nail will rust through first and the Horseshoe will start spilling out it's luck".
Nice to see the Caliban style of being completely different from anything we've seen making a come back in a medium.
Its literally wt auf e100 2.0, equally as toxic
@@youlaughyouphill842 I don't think it's anywhere as bad.
this tank will definetly be a keyboard smasher when you get nuked at the start of the game haha
I think QB loves this tank being a British tank
I am sitting on 24 Tokens and wondering if I should go for the Cobra or wait and get the new TD, Thoughts anyone that may own both?
I am more of a TD player than a Medium player. Should this be my deciding factor?
Horseshoe is upside down, meaning all the luck will run out!
My only regret is using the Cobra commander on my French tanks instead of British, it would have been perfect role play.
Why isn't the vents in the second slot so you could get another 1% bonus instead of leaving vert stabs in a vision slot and getting nothing more?
now do the unthinkable and platoon with someone in cobra and go meme push a side with 4k damage to dump in seconds.
THE HORSESHOE IS UPSIDE DOWN AND ALL THE LUCK RUNS OUT THAT WAY! Cheers from Canada... ;-)
Thank you.
Still trying to decide to spend the 18 Tokens or not? Will re-watch this and take mechanics notes for configuration.
The horseshoe looks downwards so the luck fell out of it. It has to be upwards with the open part, so the luck fell into it and get kept there... so yeah: No luck for you! :D Nice review and congratz for 10 years of (good) content. *thumbsup* Keep it up.
FYI - horseshoes should be mounted with the opening up.. so the luck doesn't run out - Sherman Potter ;)
how comes i lost my tokens after the just finished and completed current battle pass ??
Hey QB....the Matilda Commander is also the radio operator.....it's just the Gunner having to be the loader
Interesting that Wargaming doesn't understand Western culture here...The horseshoe is upside down which is a symbol of BAD LUCK. It needs to be the other way so the "luck" remains in the horseshoe! Wargaming, please do your research if you're trying to sell us Americans on your product. Another great video QB!
thanx qb i love u man
Im thinking this tank might best be compared to the Emil II. Its comparable dmg in comparable time and both with a armored turret.
This tank IS completely overpowered in the same way the FV 183s are completely overpowered IMO. No, it won't have the highest avg damages or highest win rates most likely. But it simply shouldn't be possible to do 2000 DMG in 4.5 seconds. It simply shouldn't be possible to one shot a vehicle in the case of the 183s. The potential of the tank is too high when it IS working regardless of what the performances are like when it is NOT working. I think if any one aspect of a vehicle is overpowered, then there needs to be a reworking of that aspect regardless of what the other attributes are. Your analysis with the WT E100 is how I feel about vehicles like this and the 183 tds.
I got 8 tokens from last season, and that was when i was busy with school, so I can probably get the Cobra by the end of the year :)
I also have a super skilled Cromwell B crew I can use
Hey Quickybaby. The horse shoe is only good luck if it points up. They way it is on the Cobra, pointing down, means bad luck. But good luck anyways! Love the vids and love how informative you are. Really has helped me a lot.
No, that is the proper way a horseshoe is hung outsdie of a smithy.
So any luck, knowledge and fortune falls down onto those underneath.
Also a horseshoe is supposed to be lucky because it is able to withstand fire.
Having it as a 'cup' is a more modern mode associated with crap like religion.
Idk if i like the trend of new premium tanks like the Cobra and Caliban which are either broken or bad depending on RNG (whether you actually hit and penetrate)
You just know the t95 was screaming after that bounce
The horseshoe is upside down! If it's turned down the "luck" all runs out and you can't catch any more. If it's turned up, you keep catching luck and accumulating it! Rooskies should know this!
Overall Gun handling reminds me a lot of the Foch 155.
Buyed it yesterday, I love it :D
The horseshoe is upside down, so all the luck falls out.
Well in 2/3 games I ran into them yesterday, they really didn’t like it, but they were playing dumb in those first two, they tried rushing me in my E-100, and Maus, lol, when I was full health they only managed to pen one shot, the rest were stopped/bounced or very little dmg from HESH, I tracked them, and rammed as they were closing trying to get behind me, yeah didn’t work out for them at all, the 3rd game went better for them, as they had a kran and 1B backing up them up against my E-100, they finally killed me after I bounced 6100 haha.
