T-50-2 Review/Guide, Avoiding Fights You Can't Win

I review the T-50-2, a tier 6 Russian award light tank in World of Tanks (WoT), with replays of tier 8 Minsk and Mines battles. The T-50-2 is a fast light tank with a relatively weak 57mm gun, so the drivers need to choose engagements wisely. Strengths and Weaknesses Excellent mobility Good gun handling Good gun depression (-7) For incoming frontal fire, the mantlet offers some protection and the turret's outer edges are auto-bounce Low alpha (85) Low silver AP penetration (118) Tall profile Fishtails and is relatively easy to tip over Recommended Equipment 1. Optics 2. Rammer 3. Vents This tank does not have the option of mounting VStab. With the relatively good gun handling, GLD is unnecessary. This video is part of my "Road to Unicum" series in which I share what I learned as I progressed towards account Unicum rating (top 1%) with silver ammo only. I talk through how I'm reading the battle as it unfolds and discuss key decisions and mistakes. My hope is that these videos meaningfully help players improve their gameplay.
