What tanks did you hate at first but now you love?
I just got out of my best match ever in my T1 Heavy. 8 kills, High Caliber, my first Radley-Walters’ Medal, and an Ace Tanker badge. The best part was it looked like a loss at the beginning, but my amazing team helped turn that around.
When I first got the T1 Heavy, I absolutely hated it. I was brand new to the game and it was my first heavy tank. 30% win rate over 20 battles. No mastery badges. I sold the thing at the earliest opportunity with the intention of unlocking the T29 from the Jumbo and free XPing the 90mm.
But I saw several people here rave about the tank to new players. I decided I would give it a try: I hadn't unlocked many of the modules on my first go around, and I learned stock tanks are usually terrible. I recently bought it back when it was on sale, figuring I would lose nothing if I still hated it. I even gave it a half-price rammer and GLD.
When I got the next turret and M1A1, it became good. When I got the next engine, it became great. I have not unlocked the final engine yet, but I already intend to use this tank as a heavy trainer despite the terrible crew difference between it and the T29.
My question for the community is, what tanks did you have similar experiences in? What tank was so bad that could not stand another match in it, but you later came back to and fell in love?
