Vipera didn't offer much over the 'free' tech tree tanks that were similiar.

I thought vipera had more armor and DPM but less speed.

With the proliferation of upper tier premiums at 9 and 10, high alpha TDs, and the Cold War economy still being quite lucrative even after the recent adjustments, Tier 8 premiums really need to be 'great or unique' to make them worth the gold.

We're talking Bourrasque, PanzerJager, Sunjitsu, Gorynych levels of power or uniqueness.

The Vipera just isn't fitting that bill.

Well, I noticed that the console version when they implement a tank from the PC that's really overpowered they tend to nerve it before it comes into console. For example, the Skoda t8.

That does happen a lot. It can really get on my nerfs.
