OK I thought you’re just a little dumb at first when you tried to argue with me, but now I see you’re completely dumb claiming a tank whose MM was nerf (the most important stat) is not nerfed.
And then you don’t even get his analogy, but instead you ‘correct’ him that leFH doesn’t meet t8, something which he didn’t claim at all.

So you say the tank is majorly OP, ok, may we get your ingame name to check out your OP stats?

It would be also good if there was a manual on how to read the statistics, because people compare premium tanks (curves) to non-premium tanks (curves) without knowing what they’re reading, and then we get interpretation that is way off. leFH is a premium tank so it comes elite right from the start. At tier5 most people play with stock vehicles half of the time before moving to t6, so overall statistic is very deceiving. Fully elite tank can be very different from stock tank. And second, this being premium tank, it means it is played by more experienced and skilled players. So one should expect better curves.

Changing the tier is the biggest change a vehicle can possibly have. So even if the stats remained the same, but MM stat was nerfed to t5, that’s a huge nerf.

IMHO, even SU-5 which is tier4 has better gun than leFH.

It’s UP because of the reasons I mentioned. It does not influence battles. Which is mainly due to low penetration and flat trajectory.

You can say it’s great against t3 scouts (which good player will never even see, let alone die to, in tier5), but you don’t say that the downside is slow speed which means you’re stuck near the place you spawn.

You mentioned good reload, but you don’t mention how this tank works in practice – doing 15dmg to a TOG* (true story).

I have Ace Tanker in all tier5 tanks that can be bought ingame (including premiums) and this is one of the worst t5 tanks when it comes to winning. The main reason being that it’s artillery (so you can only shoot, but not hold flanks) and the fact that it does low damage per hit.

Now, of course, if someone has low winrate this tank will be good no doubt, but I am speaking as someone who has 64% wr, and tier5 tank that can only win 55-60% of time is by my criteria underpowered.

It would be nice if you post your ingame name so that I can see how successful you are in leFH. Maybe I’m just unlucky and the tank is great, but I’d like to see your stats.

I’ve had it before 8.6 and it’s indeed not nerfed. Maybe the accuracy a bit, but shells also seems to fly more to the middle of the circle in the same patch. It’s mm got buffed from 6-8, to 5-7 and I have 71% winrate in it in 150 games. But still no Ace QQQQQQQQQ

UP . With half the reload time and half the aim time of every other tier 5 arty ? Oh and accuracy is 20-30% better than on every other T5 arty. And don’t forget it has enough armor to immune against T3 scouts like P1c and even bounce some tier 4 tanks. How is that UP ?

It is. You obviously can’t play it.

First of all, it wasn’t nerded at all. Second, it doesn’t meet T8 tanks in regular battle.

leFH is majory OP to be honest, I have decided numerous battles with it for my advantage, something I can’t tell of of any other arty. It fantastic.

The LeFH was hit pretty hard with the nerf hammer. It was moved from tier 4 to tier 5 without any changes to its performance. Try taking your Stug into a battle with IS-6′s and T-32′s to see how much fun that is.

Prop or not … they did manage to break the tracks.
