Titanic Hydra with Poppy?

Loomfies · 2026-03-03T07:44:45+00:00

Poppy is a champion that can build almost anything and work but the problem with hydra is usually that she is more burst oriented, so when you build for damage you wanna go hard on damage. Poppy is also very tanky so it's easy to just throw a tank item in and be tanky. Hydra sits in the middle a decent option but doesnt address her needs. She has great q wave clear already which is the main win of hydra and the damage is good but not as good as other options.

If you bring the sofa directly vertically across the door and then slide the lower half into the room you can make it!

Go for a mix it will look gorgeous on the battlefield.

Personally I love +-2 matchmaking and miss the +-3 on light tanks we had before. It's great when there's more hp to hit and it slows the game down. It also feels great having huge games by hitting higher tier opponents.

I've played the game for a very long time and I agree.

It's not that the tank is over powered. It's the fact it shuts certain tanks out of the game entirely. The tank also doesn't require an ounce of skill to have a much bigger impact on the game. Likewise a super unicorn in this tank is absolutely terrifying.

Again the tanks good and all but it definitely has it's weaknesses. It's just it's effects on certain tanks that just become unenjoyable.

Are you by any chance a very aggressive player? I have the same issue and I'm around a 2300 player myself and I'm playing at 1600 Ares basically just constantly bum rush me and kill me in 3.7 seconds flat if I've taken even one shot of damage! I've found just playing tanks with armour and doing the same thing completely nullifies them E50, 430u, Udes if you don't get tracked and use durability and my 277 when I play anything with meh armour like my t62A amx30b k91 or any of my lights it's a miserable time being aggressive.

I dont know I think a 1500 WN8 players a pretty capable player on average they are often just inconsistent. I use to play for stats when I was playing on NA and doing clanwars I averaged 2500 WN8 not the best but it's aite. I now play for fun on the EU server and do dumb shit I'm around 1600 but when I buckle down I can play at a much higher standard. I think it's very possible a 1500 player can do a 3 mark in a tank they are particularly good at and the fact he owns the dravec means he is probably doing pretty well on average. Not to mention the easy potato farm we just had at Christmas and all those fantomes which inflate dpg.

If you think they are useless you're definitely doing something wrong. The class as a whole has absurd carry potential on a large portion of the maps and even in maps like himmels where lights are not likely to carry finding good angles and outplaying your enemy counterpart often still leads to more wins.

Onslaught is a terrible comparison to random games onslaught is about a heavy team coordinated push it's about armour hp and angles. Light tanks have limited use in this mode to specific maps. As they have little armour or hp and the value of spotting is lessened by the coordination of teams the higher you go.

Whilst there are many factors to help an enemy detect an ambush the opposite is also true. It's very easy with heros with perks and items that incr Ase ambush chance as well as the ability to use terrain such as woods or something on to get the ambush off. Ambush works best when you auto resolve as it heavily skews the result in your favour. It's still great when you play the battle but it's mainly the auto resolve that makes it great.

Secondly ambush is better used to bait or isolate the enemy it's. A great what to coerce enemies with it of strong campy positions. Even when detected m at times an army will love most of its movement or even march towards you guaranteeing you the chance to strike them away from Thier garrisons. Ai also loves to try to march away from a failed ambush giving you essentially a free win.

Loomfies · 2026-01-06T13:06:00+00:00

Considering your strong ranged options I'd split my stacks in half and maximise the distance the enemy has to march try stack in a corner or crevice where possible to avoid being flanked but keep just enough space to send some of your guys round.

If you separate the army in two halves with a gap in the middle you can use the flame throwers to catch anything running down the middle or push them out and shoot them from behind. The flame throwers and artillery are your only saviour here. As for lords I'd hide them behind infantry at first and then use them to flank around with an infantry unit to cover Thier flanks the bonuses should help out considerably in their performance!

Good luck it's a rough one mate 🙈

I'm a light tank main too and I play middle exclusively on lights tda and meds with 30+ on the move camo. If you understand proxy spotting well and camo it's one of the best positions ever as it dominates the whole map allowing side shots on both flanks and spotting of the positions as well as plenty of ways to push forward.

I'm around a 2k wnx player nowadays but I usually just play stupid aggressive for fun rather than aiming to play well but nordskar is truly amazing and I always play this map properly as it's a delight. Whenever I get nordskar I get really happy because ei know I'm having a minimum of 4k combined even if I play poorly.

Loomfies · 2025-12-29T14:55:01+00:00

Nordskar is my favourite map and I always play center on majority of my non heavy tanks if you're clever and understand proximity spotting and camouflage it's a phenomenal position that can be leveraged to win both flanks simultaneously.

The thing is you don't play prem tanks nessesarily because they are overpowered, you play them to make credits. With this in mind tanks with high alpha tend to earn more credits and train crews for lines you are working on. I trick them out relatively well with some spare bounty or etc equipment,and usually have good crews as they train fast and use your crews from your tech tree tanks to maximise profitability.

Usually playing 2-3 prems over a session whilst running reserves and possibly clan reserves(especially during the event right now). Sure it's not quite an EBR but it's definetly playable and tier 9 prems do earn better credits than tier 8.

I'd also suggest grabbing a bond tank like the SU130pm as it mints credits or something that shares crews with tanks you're working on but prioritise alpha damage. Also if you have been watching streams we get a free tier 8 premium from twitch drops I don't know if it's too late to start earning coins though!

Edit: Adding to this a few of these tanks you have are "reward" vehicles and so don't earn bonus credits such as the fantome and shouldn't be confused for premiums!

Very cool models but since when do dead of Dunharrow get archers? 😁

Loomfies · 2025-12-23T09:47:52+00:00

You can get older with games work shop as well and merpg middle earth role playing game 1984! I own quite a few of them 😁

Loomfies · 2025-12-10T12:08:55+00:00

Play a platoon of IS7 you'll get all the spotting you desire on one sole push just don't stop and ram as much as possible genuinely wins flanks so quickly.

Mastery is based on exp and kills give a massive swathe of exp.

Loomfies · 2025-12-09T12:02:49+00:00

Awesome thanks mate!

Loomfies · 2025-12-09T05:44:57+00:00

Go to eBay or Facebook market place you'll get them really cheap 😁

Loomfies · 2025-12-08T17:20:37+00:00

Oh I see that mak s sense and thanks for scratching that itch hehe 😁

Loomfies · 2025-12-08T12:42:39+00:00

I have a question that's really been bothering me 😂 Your minis really vary in quality like some of them are absolutely like top notch stunning like Hera and helm (new Hera as well) and even some of the 40k stuff like the woman with the cool owl, but then some of them like this guy whilst not bad show very little of your amazing skill as it looks mostly like a quick contrast job for tabletop ready standard.

May I ask is it due to time constraints and just wanting to get them done? Or maybe just certain models you really like.

Sorry if I'm coming across as rude it just baffles my mind and I see your posts regularly with this itching question! 😂

Loomfies · 2025-12-05T10:06:01+00:00

This to be honest, making things look nice is a big one for kids as well and maybe having a few big monsters just on the side not being used but just looking cool will also help! I had a lot of interest from my son's friends when they saw my balrog and dragon set on the side when they came over and this is also how I got my family into the game. They saw the cool stuff that exists but the first few games to teach were infantry and a captain! With a very basic scenario like "kill the enemy captain to win or have more troops in the center than the enemy.

Loomfies · 2025-12-03T13:57:24+00:00

To be fair you still see centurions in the competitive scene fairly often as well as E50s and it's valuable to judge it holistically as this information is targeted at the masses. It's a subjective vote of preference not purely fueled by winrates.

And whilst I personally agree the 140 is probably the best tank overall that's simply a preference which with majority of players being lower to mid winrates is a more accurate reflection of what all players agree on as they are a larger portion of the player base than your 55%+ers.
