I find the Slapjack with its rubber bouncy ball ammo to be superior.

 

This may be a direct result of having a Slapjack and not having a 131.

the same gun can be found at tier 6.

 

except not in the T34-88. it has even worse pen.

your not making any sense. the Slapjack has the Tech Trees gun & sees the same tier as the tech tree. theres no reason to compare it to the PMM buffed pen premium 131.

 

I think the point is just to highlight the Slapjack's shortcomings when compared to another similarly mobile heavy tank that's also sporting a short 88 albeit a different version of it. Really the Slapjack compared to any of the other tier 7 heavy tanks comes up short.

 

Also keep in mind that the Tiger isn't shackled to the short 88 like the Slapjack is. The Tiger eventually gets a competitive gun for its tier.

They aren't comparable. 131 is in a league of its own.

to see what the Slapjack is like, you dont use the 131. you use the TT Tiger.

 

it isnt a premium with PMM. it doesnt have the buffed 131 pen. its tier 7 counterpart is the TT Tiger with the short 88. you wouldnt pick the 131.

 

im not being picky here. in a Slapjack release thread greenteam chimed in with a "so its the 131 gun then" as a comment. i dont think hes either clicked regarding that fact, or bothers with any other Tiger except the 131.

 

show me this post then

 

also, i have 2 marked the Hammer, which is a reskinned Tiger 1.

Wait what, the 131 gets a 7, which according to your ratings is just above decent? With food and Rammer it has nearly 3000 DPM... it's one of the most OP tanks in the game and absolutely dominates when top tier. Slapjack just has a good turret, that's all. Both in Tier 7 and Tier 8, 131 is miles and miles better. Slapjack could really use a better gun / pen buff ir pref matchmaking, but I doubt that will ever happen, lots of 7's struggle in 9 matches. But yeah, 131 all day long!

well, my ratings from 1-10 are: 1=Useless 2=awful 3=meh 4=okay 5=average 6=decent 7=Good 8=Great 9=Fantastic 10=PMM 15=PPMM (Perfect Preferential Match Making)

the only reason the Slapjack has a higher rating as Top Tier is because it has Higher rate of fire and pen is not as important. (in my opinion).
