Take the M42 for cap rushing and the F4U-4.


Dukeringo

lol. If you cap rush to get in to a plane, where does the t14 come in?


183mm_HESH

T14 is a monster at the end of a game. It does much better after the first 5 minutes of a game, when most of the big guns are gone.


erik4848

agreed, most of the big guns are sometimes open-topped as well, so you won't see them as often in the lategame


ElAdamTheGreat

Cuz you'll be annihilated before you see them


TheSovietBobRoss

This guy knows how GRB works


thatplannerguy

This strategy also works for most other heavy tanks - particularly in uptiers


Funtime60

I use it with my Maus


CoIdHeat

At the end of the game? And you plan to reach that endgame in the Corsair? The tank is extremely dependant of not meeting opponents of its own BR or even above, due to its ridiculously weak shells, that are on 4.0 level. That tank would deserve to be 4.3 judging by its performance alone. The fact that it has half an actual lineup there but nothing really on 4.7 only reinforces that. It´s a waste of GE in its current rating.


183mm_HESH

Yes. Basically, I'm very unlikely to die in the Corsair, providing i stay fast. It's almost untouchable on the deck. I'll fly a sortie or two, land and J out repaired on the strip when it's getting towards the business end of the game.


CoIdHeat

So what’s your secret? I find myself very often chasing (or being chased) during a sortie enemy planes plus the occasional danger of surprise hits by good SPAA players


DaCosmonut

Backup


Meretan94

Low tier against the us: Ops all cas


Hakzource

And that is why CAS is an issue


steave44

Use M42 to spawn fighter and fight CAS all match is the true way


CoIdHeat

CAS isnt an issue. Being able to just rush a point and then already spawn in a plane is.


Hakzource

That’s…cas being an issue


Embarrassed_Ad5387

take m19 if you want depression


DaMosqui

With T55E1, M4A1 76 (W) and T14 I got ~ 3000+ kills in total, now I don’t play anymore 4.7 US. Hope Gaijin will introduce a new 76mm for US at 4.3/4.7


pinchasthegris

The hellcat prototype with the 57mm


o-Mauler-o

Hellcat… Prototype?


Harmotron

I think they are referring to the [57mm GMC T49](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeEsMjuqEDxLYsYk0Cv0_x6ilZ4T8SaV6-KLYwNDYFXPo53FUhEyfipkBenw08Y0rOcCGO8tZA48qYBStTH-FKGEW_4hCe__7IXiFqKYP8LgJNmOOX51Bbt3K9NBKrron8UmChr6-zzT0K/s1600/T49-6.jpg)


Ethben

we have KV-1 at home


pinchasthegris

Yeah the t49 Hellcat but a bit smaller


GhillieThumper

That isn’t a Hellcat, it is a bulldog with a 90mm


pinchasthegris

Ehm. It very much is a hellcat prototype


Saunamajuri

That's the 90mm Gun Tank T49, which is not to be confused with the 57mm Gun Motor Carriage T49.


pinchasthegris

American weapon names. You gotta love it


Saunamajuri

I remember when I started wondering what certain tank names and numbers meant and going crazy when I realised that sometimes there isn't a logical reason as to why something has a certain number.


Robball14

Man i remember when i was using T55E1, T14 and M6A1 unironically steamrolled everything. Good times


steave44

There’s a M4A1 Sherman with the old turret but a 76mm gun prototype they could add


CoIdHeat

Just how long did you plan on that single BR only to amass 3000+ kills?


japeslol

4.7 US still slams. Just slams harder with the T55E1.


steave44

That tank isn’t even in the marketplace so you literally can’t get it unfortunately. T14 is good but you are using backups or uptiers tanks a whole BR lower because US has such a huge BR gap for some reason


Gordo_51

T14, M4A1 76 and a -4 Corsair might do pretty well.


MasterMidir

The M4A1 is 5.0


Whitephoenix932

M4A1 76 is 5.0, the standard M4A1 is 3.7 or 4.0 I can't remember which.


jellebrownie

3.3 for the US one, but the British one is 3.7


CoIdHeat

M4A2. You´re still on a disadvantage though. It has the mediocre pen of the T14 but none of the additional armor.


BoxerYan

If only its turret face is better


azawekrb

ive had t14s ram me thinking their turret is as strong as a jumbos mantlet, they find out that it isnt


Tax_this_dick_1776

I don’t get the appeal. I guess it likes to randomly bounce side shots but from the front it’s laughably meh. It’s easier to pen than a normie Shermie because of that massive flat spot


liznin

The key is to be patient and bait them into bouncing a shot before exposing the weak front of your turret to shoot them.


bankshaft_132

4.7 was my favorite lineup when it had the M4A1(76), it and the t-14 were king 😭


Randomguynumber1001

T-14? The Armata got added?


bankshaft_132

T14


Randomguynumber1001

A hyphen truly made all the difference.


LightningFerret04

I’ll add that to my list - T34 vs T-34 - B17 vs B-17 - B18 vs B-18 - Su-57 vs SU-57 - T14 vs T-14


Randomguynumber1001

- T54 and T-54 as well


Independent-Olive-46

T28 vs T-28 as well lmao


bankshaft_132

😂


pinchasthegris

As someone that it is his favorite tank and my first premium. Yap, definitly


John-Warner

Just use M4A2. It has decent armor anyway but it can't see Tigers and Panthers


Guilty_Advice7620

Or full uptiers


IcyRobinson

Still don't understand why the M4A1 76 is 5.0


undecided_mask

It’s the best 76 Sherman besides the Jumbo 76. Good mobility, good firepower, good reaction time, and the trolliest armor of them all.


Rodlp9

the a1 has the worst armor of all shermans, very easily defeated by most guns, the a2 and 3 have much better armor


undecided_mask

Notice I said trolly armor. Shots that should kill by hitting the upper part of the upper glacis often non pen (in my experience both playing as the tank and against it). I’m sure it’s something to do with volumetric, I believe the Super Sherman with cast hull also has it.


NationalNoblesCorps

Jumbo 76s armor is largely irrelevant at a BR where it regularly faces 122s and long 88s. I’m not saying it can’t do well but there’s just nothing it offers over other options at the BR. All its armor is irrelevant against the things it faces and its gun just can’t match up to the competition at 6.3. To say nothing of a full uptier. However, the 75 jumbo at 5.7 is a monster, if used correctly. It can be tricky to use but it really is great.

undecided_mask

I find both of them extremely strong. Maybe it’s my playstyle, as I flank with it exclusively and use the armor to prevent any cheeky kills by sneaking around light tanks.


DoJebait02

It was the best 4.7 i think. M4A3 can rock at 5.7 with little upgrade (mainly engine as armor no matter anymore). Mate, i just cant think any better than M4A1 76 at 4.7


Chruszcz

Stopped playing it after they moved M4A1 to 5.0, hate playing just one tank over and over again, even if I enjoy it


jthablaidd

A lot of problems in the US tree can be boiled down to brs


thepitcherplant

It was only a few months ago that it had an arcade lineup with the m18.


ComradeCommader

I dont get the T14 love honestly. Its a fat Sherman with the same armor value and an increased hull mg weakspot, all for a ripe price of $12. Not worth it honestly


TryHardMayonnaise

Angle it like it's a Tiger and you're good to go. Except the MG port weakspot is still there.


steave44

MG port weak spot is really freaking hard to hit, one pixel off and it bounces instantly

ComradeCommader

I have not had that problem at all, not to mention its a fat sherman so its not like im not ripping through the hull anyways


GhillieThumper

And that massive turret.


steave44

Depends what BR the match is and if volumetric wants to assist you or work against you that day lol


GhillieThumper

True that, just gotta be careful in the T-14 sometimes you can get caught out by a good panzer 4 who knows what he is doing.


Aizseeker

I don't have lineup between 4.0 and 5.7. l just skipped it.


abroamg

A few years back the 4.7 USA was one of the best lineups :(


Pheonyxus

look at his chubby ass driving thru hurtgen 🫵🏽🤨


Luknron

wdym just backup! 💪 💪 💪 


Savooge93

agreed


Savooge93

agreed


Keisuke_Fujiwara

Basically how I see the T14 is just a very VERY VERY early jumbo


Lolocraft1

I never know where to shoot those goddamn T14, side cheeks are a trap for my early T-34s


Big_gun_guy

Now that the 76(w) is 5.0, my 4.7 lineup includes the T14, m4a2, m24, m10, m16 (I prefer .50s to 40mm as I find them easier to aim), f4u-4 and the premium p51 for the lols


jaqattack02

I just take the T14 in the 5.0 lineup. It does just fine there.


vinitblizzard

Proper lineup - just put a p 47 and a b 25 and an spaa lmfao


Quirky_m8

Low tier Jumbo. It fucks.


konigstigerboi

RIP M4A1 76


TRIPSTE-99

Imagine if they added the M7 medium tank


Alarming_Might1991

T14 is worth more than most lineups at the BR lol, most people have no idea how to kill it


powerpuffpepper

Play it at 5.0 like I do silly


steave44

Uptiering heavy tanks is a cardinal sin


powerpuffpepper

Your loss then, it's perfectly capable at 5.0


steave44

6.0 gets you into the German stacked 6.0 lineup of the Tiger E and 3 panthers, no thanks


powerpuffpepper

And you get the M6 and M4A1 76 for that exact reason. At 4.7 you still fight tiger 1 and panther lmfao


steave44

You do but not nearly as much, down tiers at 4.7 are muuuuch more common


Either-Yoghurt-5968

It had a good line up but they moved the tanks I used with it to 5.0 and 5.3, the basterds.


Yeetdolf_Critler

M18 used to also be 4.7 in AB and that combo was a great lineup.


Outrageous_Remote522

The T14 has a lineup??


Fen-xie

That's a weird looking Bradley. Export varient ?
