Best and worst tanks by tier and type – worst tier VI medium

There are twelve tier VI medium tanks in WOT (patch 9.13):

  • A-43
  • T-34-85
  • VK 30.01 (D)
  • VK 30.01 (P)
  • VK 30.02 (M)
  • M4A3E2 Sherman Jumbo
  • M4A3E8 Sherman
  • Cromwell
  • Sherman Firefly
  • Cz08 T 25
  • Type 58
  • Type 4 Chi-To

A lot of these tanks are really good, and a couple are “not so great”. They differ a lot in play style, even more than you should think. I believe the Cromwell is the best one, but which one is worst? There are four clear candidates, but let us get rid of the best ones first: The Cromwell is out, and so is the T-34-85. I also believe we can rule out both of the american ones, and both the VK 30.01 (D) and the VK 30.02 (M). I have not played the T 25 yet, but it is doing quite well in the battles I have played where I’ve seen them in action. The Sherman Firefly has a great gun, even if it’s slow, so it is also out.
