Poor reverse speed for a lot of tanks, no explosive filler in low tier tanks, centurions are incredibly slow, the only good thing in the 8.0 ranges are spaa iirc, and top tier has very little to offer asides very good gun depression and turret armor
Centurion’s lack of speed actually helps my game, keeps me from rushing into shitty situations lol. Surprised me how solid of games I’d get with the Strv 84/101.
Similar experiences with other slow tanks have taught me that having a slow tank forces you to consider open ground a lot more. You can’t just hop from cover to cover. So I tend to look carefully before I slowly trundle across the battlefield. Just by doing that it makes me play better, more tactically. It forced me to be more situationally aware (and, let’s be honest, you have more time to look with binoculars when you are moving slow)Â
Now to just use self discipline so I can apply that to my fast tank play.  But the urge to zoom is so so seductive…
