Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- Very good armor for its tier and light tank designation.
- Good view range
- Preferential matchmaking prevents it from seeing tier V or above.
- APCR ammo is (relatively) cheap
Cons:
- Slower and less agile than most lights, due to its increased armor.
- While strong at Tier IV, it is much less so against Tier V tanks.
- Gun requires premium ammunition to penetrate many tier IV tanks.
Performance
This tank can dominate at Tier IV, given that you don't platoon with normal tier IVs or tier Vs which will drag the tank into higher-tier matches. Though its gun is very effective against other light tanks, it can fail to penetrate well angled armor. Even more so, it is ineffective against better armored tanks of its Tier, especially the Matilda. Use the Valentine's relatively affordable premium rounds to deal with these vehicles. When in higher tier games, this tank loses everything that makes it special. Its armor is comically useless against any non-stock gun at Tier 5, and its gun will fail very often against heavy tanks. Therefore, you should avoid platooning with tanks that will allow it to see tier V (such as other regular tier IVs), so you can ensure that you are always top tier.
