  1. T25/2 was completely irrelevant in the past, it will remain completely irrelevant in the future. In 12 years of playing this game I have not once seen a single game where someone playing the T25/2 did anything noteworthy.

    1. The T25/2 is a decent tank, a bit of a mix between MT and TD. Like most tier VIIs it doesn’t draw much attention to itself, but it’s not a bad vehicle.

      1. I kinda like it, but it is to slow and sluggish , even with turbo. This buff to the engine and to the gun is welcome. I will start to play it again, after the buffs.
