First and foremost, the PGZ-70 has been reclassified into a medium tank due to its excellent mobility: The top forward speed is 60 km/h. The vehicle’s best protection is its ability to escape the majority of enemies in most cases. Its armor is negligible—among the thinnest at its tier.
The PGZ-70 wields twin 57 mm autocannons. Their firing mechanic resembles that of the Czechoslovakian light tank branch rather than that of the American Ares medium line: The guns do not overheat but have a clip that needs to be reloaded when it runs empty. An important difference from the Czechoslovaks is that the PGZ-70 has a lower rate of fire but greater damage per shot (and per clip) as well as shell penetration (236 mm with the standard AP round and 288 mm with the special APCR round).
The PGZ-70 has the potential for exciting and highly strategic gameplay owing to its ability to dish out around 1,400 HP of damage in 4 seconds even to well-armored targets, combined with high mobility and high fragility, It can thus be very rewarding for an eager and skillful tanker.
I need it to be a whole line
Another pum pum pum together wit assres line…game is really turning players from it self
Question. Why did you copy my name and picture out of any one else you? People copy me like this on other sites so i just want to understand what made you want to do it cause its a strange reoccurrance, i appreciate that you put the emoji to distinguish yourself, but id like to know why.
Tier-IX and a funky mechanic and crew load-out? Feels like a BP special to me.
can i has my waffentrager returned now?. I paid good money for it. Was like paying for a bmw and the dealer rolls out a kia for me to take home.
I absolutely agree with you. If it’s good enough to be in randoms it should have been given back. Whether it would survive Ares mania is another question!
Agreed . It’s really crappy that only CCs and streamers pretty much have and can play the phonix. I check everyone I see who has one . It’s all top clanners who had tons of free gold from clans or streamers who got free boxes from WG who bought it . Really sad they dont care about the OG loyal paying customers.
A SU-57-2 turret on a different chassis.
Is that a Type 59 chassis?
That should be a ZSU-57-2.
The reclassification to a medium tank makes a lot of sense given that 60 km/h top speed — it clearly leans more toward a mobility-driven, opportunistic playstyle than a traditional support SPAA concept. With armor being nearly nonexistent, positioning and timing will be everything. Players who overextend or mistime a clip will likely be punished instantly.
The twin 57 mm setup is particularly interesting. A 1,400 HP burst in roughly 4 seconds with 236 mm standard pen (and 288 mm APCR) gives it real threat potential even against heavily armored opponents. That kind of burst damage, without an overheating mechanic, suggests a high-risk, high-reward flanking assassin rather than a sustained DPM trader. It feels like a vehicle that rewards map awareness, smart target selection, and coordinated pushes rather than solo aggression.
Balance-wise, the key question will be reload duration and gun handling if the clip reload is long and dispersion values are unforgiving, it will naturally cap its performance ceiling. But in skilled hands, this could easily become one of those tactical “swing tanks” that can turn a flank in seconds.
Overall, the PGZ-70 looks like it could bring a fresh dynamic to medium gameplay fragile, fast, and explosive in the right situation.

I absolutely don’t believe that! Let me tell you how it all looks. The “standard four-minute battle” is being reduced by another minute. I started playing WoT because it had tactical depth, was complex, and offered excitement and fun. With the introduction of the EBR, the race against time began. Many subsequent tanks and their gameplay became increasingly faster, and some were far too powerful for their tier (e.g., the Bourasque). Then the damage output was increased even further. It used to take at least six shots to send someone to the garage, and now? I’m talking about the SU-130 PM, XM57, Skorpion, BZ-179, etc. We don’t even need to talk about the FV-4005 or the FV-183. WoT has now become a game for kids with ADHD. I’m starting to get the impression that Wargaming wants to turn WoT into a new “Steelhunter.”
Wargaming is forgetting who, and especially how old, the average WoT player is. The average WoT player is just over 30 years old! Why do you think so many tank destroyers are sitting idle at the red line and artillery is so popular? Because after a workday, it’s the only way to drive a tank in WoT in a relatively relaxed way.
And now comes ARES…
tactical depth and complexity kek wot never had that….
what tactics were you using big dawg?? camping in bushes and spamming gold ammo?? thanks for the laugh doofus
Your post made me laugh out loud. I just can’t take your question seriously. They say there are no stupid questions, but have you even played the game or understand what it’s about? Apparently not. So, just for you, my little ADHD kid: In WoT, tactics are developed situationally, and they depend on the map, positioning, matchmaking, the ongoing game, your team, and a lot more. You’re welcome! I doubt you’ll get anything out of it, but you should never give up hope. Just have fun and all the best.
Bour ok but those tds have no dpm . And fvs been around forever. I agree ares is toxic . Also players with ADHD you stole this line from me btw are playing meds and heavies or anything op not camping tds. Think you need to look up ADHD . But otherwise yea the speed of games is insane and like the ares we don’t need tanks that can go 60 and pen heavies for 1400 and then run away . These type of tanks are so bad for the 3 min games now . It’s like they want this game to die . Well here is a tip WG ADHD people get bored easy try to keep the player who actually care about wot not the spazs who love ares .
An Aimbot cheat and a 6 skill crew
takatakatakatakatakataka!
Just what we needed….
Who wants tier 8 premiums 😂😂
Idk man, this thing might be able to do 1400 in 4 seconds ish with 288 pen, but every HE can go right through you. I like interesting or ridiculous damage potential in this game if balancing can be justified, but this thing is too ridiculous even for me.
And one god clicker and garage😅
The only way this thing can be justified is if only a few hundred or thousand are given out or sold, even then it needs the damage or pen toned down
They are getting increasingly more desperate to invent novelties to stay relevant. Going more and more into pure arcade and dropping the historical ties and references. I think this game has reached the end of what thye can release without making pure copies of existing tanks and without just making ridiculios shit. I hoped 2.0 would leap forward in the historical timeline rather then what they did. this game is a shadow of what it was when released and the power creep and speed of battles is out of hands.
Totally agree
A mobile FV. Great
i switched to warthunder after 6 years of playing wot and i must say things like these aas agaist tanks are so fun
