How this lineup plays
Opening spawn
M2A4 provides the default core role. Choose from the tech-tree combat vehicles at this BR. Add lower-BR backups only where needed to reach four combat vehicles, then bring SPAA separately.
Urban maps
Work with teammates in short city lanes and leave room to pull back. Tall hulls and open tops are easy targets around corners or for enemies above you.
Open maps
Ridges support hull concealment when gun depression allows. Scouts establish side angles while heavier vehicles cover crossing lanes.
Uptier plan
Short exposure protects lightly armored vehicles; flanks matter more than extended frontal exchanges. Side angles and team-supported firing lanes replace armor-dependent pushes.
Downtier plan
If your gun or armor has the advantage, push with teammates after the enemy fires. Check their gun and your next piece of cover before moving.
Replacement spawn
LVT(A)(1), M3 Stuart, M22 provide a change of role or attack angle. Air defense becomes the priority when aircraft threaten allied positions.
Try this for three matches: take your first shot from cover, pull back and use your next spawn on a different lane. See whether that change helps you avoid the same death.
Use covered side lanes with the M22 and avoid frontal armor trades.
Build all four combat vehicles and air defense before progressing; improve ammunition and survival upgrades.
Ammunition and stock grind
Check the vehicle guides for shell choices and ready-rack capacity. Start with useful anti-armor ammunition and available repair/firefighting upgrades, then unlock the equipment your role needs. Use your stock shells while researching better options.
Core lineup budget
Core lineup budget
For featured lineups, the total covers new core vehicles at this stop. Alternative lineups show the full core. SPAA, optional vehicles and the research path leading here cost extra.
| Vehicle | Research RP | Purchase SL | Basic crew SL |
|---|---|---|---|
| M3 Stuart | 2,900 | 700 | 200 |
| M22 | 4,000 | 2,100 | 600 |
| Total | 6,900 | 2,800 | 800 |
Purchase + basic crew: 3,600 SL
Your remaining cost depends on what you’ve already researched, prerequisites, discounts and crew slots. Expert/ace training, modifications and repairs are extra.
When to move up
- You have at least four combat vehicles that give you different options after a loss.
- You have an SPAA option for the aircraft you expect to face; its BR can be lower than the lineup.
- You’re comfortable aiming the gun and using cover during the reload.
- You have useful backups for the new vehicle while you unlock its modifications.
Likely opponents
Examples from lower, equal and higher BRs to help you prepare. Which ones can be enemies depends on the nations on each team. This is not a ranking of how often they appear.
Chi-Ha Kai · 2.3
China · Higher BR · uptier range · Medium tank
Threat: A medium tank can fight in the main lane, then move to get a shot from another angle.
M3 Stuart approach: Keep your hull covered, watch the return-fire lane and create crossfire instead of repeated frontal trades.
Aiming check: For available armor-piercing rounds, check penetration at the actual range and angle before choosing a crew or module shot.
