Being a British light cruiser however Tiger '59 comes with the Damage Repair consumable. Her health pool is the second-lowest of the Tier VIII cruisers, leaving her especially vulnerable to high Alpha strikes like torpedoes or battleship fire. She features an above water citadel which is largely un-overmatchable, and unlike Edinburgh her hull plating is 25mm, allowing her to ricochet shells up to 356mm and to shatter most destroyer-grade HE shells. In terms of survivability Tiger '59 is a mixed bag. Fortunately, her AP shells come with improved ricochet angles and fuze settings, making her damage output against soft targets like destroyers or superstructures very consistent. Lacking torpedoes means that Tiger '59 has no tool to deal high Alpha damage, forcing her to rely on damage over time via the AP shells. To make matters worse, the arrangement in two turret means that a incapacitated or destroyed turret cuts her damage output in half.

While Tiger '59 reloads very fast, the low barrel count results in her having a below average dpm. The main armament consists of two twin turrets with auto-loading 152mm guns. Tiger '59 is a Tier VIII premium cruiser in the British lineup.
