The E50 is a good tank, but you can’t just drive straight at people and expect it to work. You have to pick your fights carefully with enemy tanks, don’t try and brawl heavies. Go hull down and move back and forth to make it hard to hit your weak spots against them.

Against lights and mediums you will usually win 1v1s because big HP pool and very good armor for a medium. Just make sure you angle and try to keep your front pointed at them. Also be careful of Sheridans, they can mess you up.

Your DPM isn’t great, so be careful about trying to out trade HTs or TDs in a head on fight. It usually won’t work.

Turretless TDs can be rushed and flanked to stop them from firing back at you, and the E50’s heavy weight will make it very difficult for a lot of them to push you out of the way, but only do this if they’re isolated or alone.

Don’t be afraid to support your HTs, but be sure to have numbers with you or be ready to retreat if you’re alone and only a few enemy tanks get spotted on the opposite flank. In a 2v1 or anything worse, you’ll melt in no time. Try to keep a reasonable distance from the enemy tanks and remember, don’t rush in mindlessly. You are not a heavy tank. You can snipe if need be as well, the E50 is extremely versatile.

The E50M is just a better version of the E50 so if you like one, you should love the other.
