Yes, well - it is apparent that you have issues with reading, and also like creating strawmen of others inside your head.
huh, the comment made by a guy with the same name and PFP as you was som1 else. my bad.
Yeah they are setting it back to 400. 😔
M18 is completely fine at 6.0, just a skill issue if you cant play it.

i can’t find any info on this, got a link?
On the bright side, It was never a slouch even before the horsepower buff, which it hasn’t had for very long so Im used to it without the buff, so it won’t effect the tank much for me.
awww, boo. Ah well, I dont even know why they buffed it in the first place
wow you had a good game! thats amazing
this proves nothing especially because you arent even first
The tank is fine, the problem is that it messed up the 5.7 lineup.
There was 0 reason to move it up.

Is that smell, salt???
M18 still as deadly as ever. Not much has changed either. Battles on 7.0 are rather rare anyway due to the lack of choice of opponents on 7.0.
So it’s rather pleasant for 4.7 players.
I can’t say anything about the Super Hellcat because I don’t own it. However, I imagine the reduced engine power in a 7.3 battle would be tough.
Yeah but the hellcat has double the speed and three times acceleration, its not classified as a tank destroyer for a reason, I have played it a lot recently (italy/china hellcat + bootleg china hellcat m64) and theyre still crazy strong even in 7.0 games but you need to have a plan now.
Super hellcat is my 2nd most played tank. Its completely fine. The engine power is the same as it always had, they just buffed it for ~2 months, and then reverted the buff. Its barely even noticable honestly.

Yeah the ZSU is a huge problem.
Why is someone’s stats a reason for their opinion to be invalid

good pen? lmao
hellcats have terrible penetration and struggle to penetrate things from 5.7
you can only get a kill with them from the sides, when you see a medium/heavy tank from the front you can pray they miss because you will definitely not pen them

I don’t think so.
If we consider only light-medium tanks
Only Germany with 7.5cm L/70 has better pen than them if we exclude those solid rock throwers(Firefly as an example)
Yes. It is not a Tank Destroyer.
If you want higher pen, use M36 instead.
IF YOU CAN GET KILL THEM EASILY WITH A FRONTAL SHOT with THAT SPEED of M18
Please tell me why it should remain 5.7
while it is moving way faster than M4A3E8 76(W)
what?
all hellcat has is speed and that cant be used on every map, you also can get easily spotted and sniped by some TD because you can rely only on side shots because of its low penetration
It isn’t low, it is quite standard-ish penetration.
T-34-85 or [other 76mm M1 wielders from USA] also share similar penetration. :|
If you dislike your 76mm M1 on M18, you have no other option than to play M36 instead.
If M18 were still designated as a tank destroyer and being 6.0, maybe I would’ve agreed with you about penetration.
But if we consider other light or medium tanks in 5.0- 6.0 BR, it isn’t that low.
I get why you are disappointed, but sire, it is a ‘light tank’ :/
