I love my M5 Stuart. (Look at my stats, and it's pretty obvious why.)

Now I wanna hear your opinion. Do you love them too or hate them like you hate your archenemy? (If you have any.)

Edit: Or did you never even get it?

M3 Stuart is my choice for the extra speed, the auto cannon on M5 makes great fun as well but I like the zoooom zooom, now with the new Light Tank end units I never use the others

Monster in that once-in-a-lifetime top tier fight, and a fierce arty hunter in all others.  Plus it gets a howitzer.  What's not to like?

<---60 Scout medals in M5 Stuart. Need I say more ?

What makes M5 Stuart a good scout tank ?

1) Doesn't lose speed on turning so you can dodge enemy shells easily.

2) DERP DERP DERP

Actually, I never got scout in it or in any other tank.

1) very hard scouting in the first place

2) get tracked too much

But I did get, like, 3 or 4 top guns in it. (teir 4 max.  battles.) The remaining Top gun was done in my BT-2.

When I was in a match against similar tier'd tanks I enjoyed it.... but 95% of the matches I was fighting tier 8s and hated being in the tank

My highest kill game was in one. It was unreal and I couldn't stop laughing it was over. 13 kills in a quick little derptastic pwn machine. I swear every shot penetrated (somehow) and there were only 2 or 3 tier 4 tanks in the entire match so I was one-shotting everything. Overall it's a fun tank though. I really enjoy it alot

I like the herpaderp element in it.

I can shoot the heck out of anything when I'm the boss. And I can still scratch things wayyyyyyy above me. The slowness is killing me, but I did catch up with a T-50 and crashed into him successfully once, tracking that little troll.

Haven't driven a T-50 or Leo yet. I might consider them...

Hated the Stuart. My T-50 was superior in every possible way. The Stuart did not go fast enough, or handle well enough to scout effectively IMO. Luckily, the tank that comes after it is fantastic, and now that I own that, I can say the Stuart grind was worth it.

Even when it is at the top it is only moderately good. The T-50 and Leopard, however, absolutely dominate the match. Allthough, I did get Top Gun one game when I was at the top in my Stuart. That was pretty cool, I have to admit.

That howitzer can one shot almost any light tank, if you have to it can even distract a KV long enough for you to get away and SCREAM for arty. Don't try to turn more that 5deg with it just run like heck for cover.

Used to love it, but wit 7.0 update, the Howie is pretty useless now.

I like it, and at other times, it is frustrating. I just wish it had a little bit more speed so it could avoid fire better and outrun type 59s. What really annoys me though is that whenever I do really well in it and scout a whole bunch of enemies as well as take out enemy artillery, my team somehow manages to lose and I don't get as much exp as I should because of it.

I feel like they nerfed the acceleration in 7.0. Otherwise, I went back to grind out the Chaffee and it's still a load of fun. Typical day at the office is to drive at their base and blow up their arty, then go down knowing I did my job.

I used to love my M5, up until the HE nerf. I used to get Sniper once a week, now I cant even do 1% to a M3 Lee, which was my main prey.  <_<
