12/09/2018 you started playing this & you’re not even playing ratings but are commenting in it! This channel is for those that are actually in ratings battles & you are not 🙄

ornate spoke
#

@sonic sedge what does it matter that i started playing in 2018!? I think i should be proud of that! Also let me tell you that the two season where i actually wanted to get to diamond, i got there in about 2-3 days, no stress whatsoever!! Don’t judge me man, i am TRYING to help u!

sonic sedge
#

You’re judging me! That matching was rubbish,but you’re not commenting on the disparity in ratings points either!

ornate spoke
#

Well if u can’t deal with players that have more points than you, why are you supposed to get to 4k then?

agile sphinx
#

@ornate spoke I see you have now met stevo, good luck trying to get him to understand sense 👍

bleak crest
#

There’s no point playing now for points, at least until the calibration is 90% over. Otherwise it’s just the same as random. It’s perfect to grind credits and xp for the next tank.

ornate spoke
#

@agile sphinx yep, wish i did not meet him lmao 🤣🤣

sonic sedge
#

@ornate spoke you started this calling me out! Not me

ornate spoke
#

i wish i could HELP u, and i am trying to, but you simply REFUSE, i will start playing ratings today too, i HOPE i meet u in a battle, and if i see 1 mistake i will be pissed

sonic sedge
#

My last battle...The M6 thought it was a good idea to try & cap the base..Others rushed down the lower route instead of staying with heavies!

agile sphinx
#

@ornate spoke I probably should have warned you more lol, sorry about that 👀😂

@sonic sedge As a little hint, if someone with 4k WN8 offers to help, maybe it's a good idea to accept it instead of taking it personally? And it's definitely a bad idea to keep complaining if you can't take responsibility for your own mistakes, it just makes you look pretty ignorant

ornate spoke
#

may i ask why are u in this position near the end of the match?

sonic sedge
#

omg not again 🤦‍♂️

ornate spoke
#

im sorry but when i see something wrong i call it out

agile sphinx
#

@sonic sedge I suggest accepting that maximov makes a lot less mistakes than you and he can help you improve so you should listen to him, or carrying on blindly but keeping it to yourself and not complaining in this channel

bleak crest
#

Around 90% of tier x battles are lost by the team that loses the first tank. It’s enough to have one team member that does something wrong early on to face overwhelming odds.

agile sphinx
#

@bleak crest That entirely depends on the player. If you can't keep up a 1:1.5 or higher damage ratio (to compensate for the dead player) then you are going to have to rely on there being another player who can do well, and that is by no means guaranteed. If you can keep up a good DR them you will be much more likely to win even if your team is bad.

sonic sedge
#

@bleak crest yeah I couldn’t carry that team in a tier 7 when we had an incumbent tier 8 M6 that thought it was a great idea to sit on the cap from the start!

ornate spoke
#

@sonic sedge that is happening to everyone..

sonic sedge
#

That’s the first I’ve seen this morning,so err no it’s not & you wouldn’t know as you’re not actually in ratings as yet!@ornate spoke 🤣

ornate spoke
#

@sonic sedge challenge me

#

ratings bad

#

@agile sphinx i gotta meet this man in a game, have u ever seen him?

ornate spoke
#

@sonic sedge started calibrating, will send the result here

pine falcon
#

I am placing a bet you calibrate at around 3800

agile sphinx
#

@ornate spoke Yes ive seen him a few times in theast season (and he plays as you predicted), I doubt I will this season based off both of our calibrations and hopefully you won't see him either

ornate spoke
#

as I recall, as the season goes on the average calibration goes up

sonic sedge
#

@agile sphinx you’re special aren’t you!?

ornate spoke
#

to make it fair i will play different tanks at t10 each game

agile sphinx
#

@sonic sedge I believe I'm right in saying that unicum came from the Latin for special or something like that, so the correct term would be super special

ornate spoke
#

i just had the worst experience on mines ever, 4 atgm tanks in the battle, u know the outcome

#

i lost 4 battles and won 6

#

epicly, last time I calibrated I got 4,4k

#

yea well i did not spam one OP tank and did not even touch ATGMs

#

😩 e100 just bring luck

cedar river
#

@agile sphinx whats your ign mate? :)

#

@ornate spoke on a little show off roll i see. 😋

ornate spoke
#

lol

agile sphinx
#

@cedar river SmileyFish3, have fun trying to find something to criticise

fallen mortar
#

poor maximov wasting braincells on stevo, hes probably now like 2 years older by trying to help

ornate spoke
#

@ornate spoke @sonic sedge you two need to chill

#

@ornate spoke have u read what i have been saying mate? i am simply trying to help this man.

#

I have

#

But it's obvious he doesn't want help.

#

clearly... a bit sad

#

"You need to know when to fold them, know when to hold them, know when to walk away, and when to run" This is one of those times to walk away.

sonic sedge
#

I obviously don’t need help either thank you very much....where was this random guy back in 2015 to offer help & to ask me ‘why was your tank there’!? 🙄🤣

#

When it was +/- two tiers 😬

ornate spoke
#

what is your point?

#

@sonic sedge Drop it

ripe swift
hidden prawn
#

Well I think I lost all my brain cells over that conversation @ornate spoke

ornate spoke
#

you are not the only one

bleak crest
#

There should be maximum 1 player calibrating in each team unless all are calibrating. Some team gets 4-5 calibrating players the other 1-2. Clear setup for a 7-0 loss.

cosmic cypress
#

What if the calibrating players are super unicums 🤔

cold kraken
#

Rating rewards are getting better and better! I like it. 🙂

cosmic cypress
#

Yeah releasing the is6 fearless I think is motivating a lot more people to actually try to play ratings now. I like the move a lot and if you’re complaining about that then I dont think WG could ever make you happy

cold kraken
#

I don't particularly like IS-6, but still...
There's also other things like that currency you will exchange for free xp, prem time etc.

agile sphinx
#

@bleak crest How is the first game ever going to happen if there's only 1 calibrated person per team? And people in calibration have a temporary rating that isn't displayed but is used in balancing teams

ornate spoke
#

@agile sphinx masterpiece of a team u got there, now that is what i consider unfair, sorry lol

agile sphinx
#

@ornate spoke I honourably accept your apology lol I've met the E100 before and he camped in the corner just like he did there

bleak crest
#

Teams should each have 0, 1, 6 or 7 players calibrating. Then it should be more balanced.

By the way, just saw a clan that requires a win rate of below 40%, some even have 20%. The clan member I met was clearly trying to lose. Nice calibration with him as team mate...

ornate spoke
#

@agile sphinx just met the e100, camped in the corner again

agile sphinx
#

@ornate spoke But players like still aren't banned because everyone loves MH 👌

#

Seen some e100s today camping as well, probably taking the personal damage > teamplay a little too serious. :)

pine falcon
#

I don't know, but I am struggling this season with the rating. I gain it, then I lose it. Normally I am in platinum on the first day but ... idk. Maybe its just me

tacit wedge
#

Ratings do seem to be tougher so far, MM wise

late mural
#

Oh we have Stevo the Whiner here again. He doesn't want to improve, or even play the game. Most of all he just wants to complain.

But stevo is a lucky boi, very lucky for not being banned (yet).

ornate spoke
#

Ah I remember those days when there was a guy who would always call the game rigged, those were the days. Sweet memories

pine falcon
#

i like how we are all ganging up on stevo

ornate spoke
#

I would let stevo be and grow for with time he would become even a greater source of entertainment for the upcoming youths of the blitz community

72 points is the highest I've gotten in a battle

#

and without t10 atgms*

mossy badger
#

Oh no I ended up at 3.5k yikes

#

Everytime we won I did under 2k and everytime we lost I did over 3k but yikes I lost so much 😩

#

Last time I calibrated I only lost one game I was quite a bit overconfident this time around

cursive geyser
#

Can you change on how rating points are distributed?
Super hts are so useless in ratings cuz while I take all the hit for my team, my teams get all the damage and thus gets higher points.
Similar for tds as well, almost everyone is playing mts or lts, so get spots and even though I support them by doing dmg, tds like grille are useless, cuz I have to stay at very back because even if I stay in open for a second and all the sheriden rushes me.

ornate spoke
#

yeah don't play heavies that don't do reliable damage every game, just play a soviet med or something, works out great

native marten
#

lol I just either play a reliable tank or just go check blitzstars see which tank I do good/consistent in and then just play with that tank

ornate spoke
#

The Rating Battles is Full of Sheridans

tough breach
#

Ratings waste of time during lockdown. The difference in teams is extreme

ornate spoke
#

T10 is unplayable because of the Sheridan and E1

And tier 8 sees T92 too. I have been missiled twice from behind a ridge today.

ornate spoke
#

Some battles was like a rocket war

cedar river
#

Doing terrible here. :)

#

Awful lotta lads that should be at 5k already are still stuck at 3k. Not talking about myself but seen a lot of super unicums struggling even. Guess theres a lot more players this time around thus a lot more better players as well. Not complaining btw.

native marten
#

I figure I'll just calibrate later on in the season when most people get sorted out since I'm not gonna grind to try to get the is6 fearless stuff

pine falcon
#

Bruh trust me. Start calibrating now. The longer you wait, the bigger the gap gets (that is if you are aiming for more than 10 pieces of the certificate)

agile sphinx
#

@pine falcon You missed the "not"

pine falcon
#

?

cedar river
#

Uuhm. I had a t62a in my team blocking me the entire time when i was killing this obj 268. Turns out theyre the same clan. Rigging to the max. Is there anywhere one could officially report them other than simply a red thumb?

fallen mortar
#

the support just send the replay and he gets banned

cedar river
#

Thanks.

mossy badger
#

After 2 hours of grinding I can affirm that ratings is the sweatiest it’s been since season 1. Appreciate that WG 👌

pine falcon
#

^^^^

pulsar crown
#

why are they closed at nights?

mossy badger
#

That’s what I don’t like. Hopefully they can fix that bc for me ratings is open from 3-10 and often I’m not available to play

blissful portal
#

And we can confirm now ratings are more unplayable, amazing the amount of disgusting bots

pulsar crown
#

that's the occasion to deal way more dmg and never lose points cause you'll be top damage every time ^^ @blissful portal

blissful portal
#

Ik that happens more at platinum or diamond i always start rating and ina few days i reach platinum easily now i cant even pass 3.5k although i always have to carry nubs

#

7 loses in a row and keep counting

pine falcon
#

Play tier 8. Its a smooth ride there

twin current
#

you know what they say, you win some you lose many

blissful portal
#

Im at tier 8 lol

#

Maybe today is my unlucky day lol

native marten
#

I played ratings battles, 2 matches, don’t do it, teams are absolutely horrible, it becomes a 1v13 game

#

You literally have this happening

  1. dude yolos first minute
  2. you tell your team to hold position, they don’t and now it’s 3v7
  3. you can’t win because all the enemies are full HP and 5 guys did 0 damage

by 1v13 I don’t mean like literally destroying your teammates but it feels like your team is legit just trying to lose

#

Also, there’s people who can’t even tell the difference between left and right, like they’ll be like “go L nvm go R” and then they start spamming “go R” while going left and then they call out the team for going right

fossil root
#

Smells like literally everyday in blitz

native marten
#

here’s a summary of right now:
2:3 (win:loss)

tier 7 games: like tier 8, except you’re in a tier 7 tank

tier 8 games looks like this: 1 guy afk (could be your team, could be enemy’s, but WHY) and half the people have about 500 battles total and jumped into a tier 8 premium. great

tier 9: you either get slapped by tier 10s or deal with the mess called tier 8 games (that’s not to say you have no impact in tier 10, but you’re dealing with uptiered tanks, so just be careful)

and last but not least, tier 10:
the players are fine, only bad thing is you just have 4 Sheridans every game

mossy badger
#

Idk man ratings seems pretty balanced other than missile tanks - I’ve played the E1 a few times and it’s quite nasty
Other than that ratings as a whole is better than the joke fest ratings has been for the last 7 or so seasons

I have a question pertaining to the current Event.
Are Twitch Streamers allowed to participate?
Or is this solely just for Youtube content creators?

subtle sigil
#

these curfews are killing me when i stream on different regions of the world

bleak crest
#

Tier 8 is the worst in ratings right now. Better tier x, at least being top tier solves some issues.

thick stirrup
#

whoops

sonic sedge
#

and this is why the points scoring system needs changing! So random players that are put on your team can’t drag ‘your ratings’ points down!!

bleak cliff
#

Ahahaha no

ornate spoke
#

you refuse to budge and it is funny

bleak cliff
#

If you do well, like that you lose minimal points, if you completely carry then yes earn somebut not many points

ornate spoke
#

carry harder

pine falcon
#

@sonic sedge sooo when you had 2.9K rating you were complaining about not winning. Now that you are 3.5K you still complain about not winning but you also blame the team GG

sonic sedge
#

@pine falcon 🙄

bleak crest
#

7 points is hardly a loss at 3.5 k rating. 20-30 points on wins are common. This example is far from worse. I got those with 2-3 doing 0 damage but I’m not bothering to blur their names, they are not worth it to be honest based on their effort in the battle 🤣🤣🤣

lone thistle
#

Goddam game not connecting, keeps saying synchronising data then connecting then synchronising data and so on and has been doing this for 10 minutes. That’s already 2 games missed smh

sonic sedge
#

This is what I get on my losing team of random players! Sat at spawn all battle,so down goes ‘my’ rating yet again! Hope you like the pretty colours at the bottom 😂😂

pulsar crown
#

i'me never defending blitz normally, but if there are bad teams with you, there are bad teams against you, but the human never see the good things, it always remember the slightly annoying things :/, in a high number of battles, the number of noob teams in both sides will be balanced, while in a smaller number of batlles, you can find unbalanced games in a row :/

@pulsar crown noobs balancing each others is a nice approach 😂

I was having a game where everything frozw, while wifi and ping was perfectly alright, so cab i get somehow my points back?

How many days does it take for your rating to reset and male you do calibration?

#

the season ends on the last day of the month and begins on the fifth day of each month

cedar river

Except this season is 2 months long

ornate spoke
#

Not this one

pine falcon
#

It is 2 months

ornate spoke
#

No its not...

pine falcon

every spring season the rating gets prolonged for a month. If you want confirmation for this, look at your avatars timer

ornate spoke
#

Not the ratings season @pine falcon

"From April 5 to May 31" Literally written in the news. Please stop arguing and look things up

normal garnet
#

Why are there people who seem to not speak English in battle, but are fluent in insulting me and my family in every way shape or form? I make the call at the beginning of the battle, they don’t listen and die, and I seem to think they don’t know English because they can’t seem to understand, but then they explode at ME for being a noob and making a bad call when they suicide on purpose

#

Fix this. There are trolls in ratings too. They just go AFK at the start of battles, and I keep getting the same ones in my games. I’ve starred about 8 replays

mossy badger
#

@normal garnet I mean the AFK trolls r in any game, the best u can do is to just stop playing for a while and take a break

normal garnet
#

@mossy badger yes, I did that. I’ll come back tomorrow, hopefully it will be better

#

Look at this guy.
Not even winrate is over 50% but his rank point?

sonic sedge
#

It’s become quite apparent in the so called ‘evenly matched battles’ that when one random team of players have more that are still calibrating then that team invariably loses, the same goes (again most of the time) when there is a large ratings points discrepancy between the players/teams, the team with the higher overall ratings points win!
My summing up of the battles so far this morning..
I mean, one battle we even had a Chi-Ri on our team of random players 🤦‍♂️ c’mon who uses one of them in ratings & he got wiped out in the first 30 seconds!

bleak cliff
#

Stop complaining. No one cares

#

And it's the start of the season so expect for EVERYONE to be calibrating

sonic sedge
#

@bleak cliff Grow up, I’m not complaining, if you read the post properly it’s an observation! 🙄

#

Ah yes I'm the one needing to grow up when you come here weekly to speak you opinion

Chi Ri is a good tank wtf is he talking about i used it in ranked before and BP has little to no armor against T8 heavys since you cant angle that flat plate and also the pen isnt that high

pine falcon
#

God.... I am struggling this season. 200+ battles haven't crossed the 4.4 line yet... Also I have noticed this, one season I do really well in one particular tank, lets say T62A, but the next I just get obliterated in it.

bleak crest
#

It’s better not to invest too many battles early on and wait for things to settle down. I do x2 on the fly.

how about no ? or lets say i swear less if you cry less about your teammates ? Everyone has the same teammates and still people get up to 6 or even 7k rating

@fallen mortar dude that’s the guy who complains about ratings on a daily basis lmao

@fallen mortar ☝️ swearing is not allowed or abbreviations of, EVER! Grow up!
Also unless you live in the U.S it’s ‘armour’! Seeing as the U.S didn’t even invent armour..Also the BP can be angled against attack from tier 8’s, if you’ve ever played it you would know!

bruh

fallen mortar

played it and not really, unless someone is shooting your turret which is pennable aswell, if you had above 1,4k WN8 you would know and i played BP but not on my main acc. Should i tell you something funny crying about MM is something that isnt allowed aswell

@glossy raptor if by "noobs" you mean a sh*t tone of pro players, then yeah.

cedar river
#

@pine falcon I mean theyre on your team as well right :)

pine falcon
#

@cedar river true, but they steal my damage 😂 😭

sonic sedge
#

So the enemy players had two tank destroyers & the same number of heavies as my random selected players...So no it’s not ‘my personal rating’! There was also no wait to get into battle..Fifth loss in a row now.

cosmic cypress
#

U also did 1300 in a very strong td

pine falcon
#

^^^ that. Also the queues for you are instant because your rating is low.

sonic sedge
#

@cosmic cypress you rely on your ‘team’ with a td.,& as you can see two scored zero! I was nearly at 3600 ratings points but now have lost nearly 400, go figure why I’m not on the winning ‘team’ now! Possibly around 7 losses in a row & I don’t miss my shots & don’t score zero!

pine falcon
#

Guess what, I have lost 400 points on occasions too. But I brush it off and manage to get them back. Also if you are losing 5 or more battles in a row it would be better if you stop playing

#

Stevo, you are nothing more than a sore loser. When your team averages 60%wr and you completely destroy a 45%wr team you, don't say anything - you don't complain, you don't post screenshots even though it is clear the matchmaker goofed up. However when the enemy team averages 60%wr and your team averages 45%wr and you get rekt, you start meaning, complaining and overall become a crybaby because "MaTCmakInG iS UnFAiR". Just please stop with your nonsense. In addition to this, you are like a flat-earther: you deny all reason or common sense, and wander off into your own universe, which is full illusions. Almost everybody active in this chat is against you. And also considering how you act and the types of messages you say, you probably don't have the age to be on discord.

sonic sedge
#

As I mentioned above, the random players team that are still calibrating against a team that already has invariably loses..& I’m not the only one to have noticed this!

#

@pine falcon I don’t miss 4 out of 6 shots like you did in tier 10! EVER 🤦‍♂️

pine falcon
#

xD that was a single battle. And as it currently stands I got 1K points above you.

ornate spoke
#

@sonic sedge this isn't your matchmaking complaint channel

cosmic cypress
#

@sonic sedge you don’t have to “rely on your team” to be able to do over 1300. Even if you did get unlucky, don’t try to go blaming the team

pine falcon
#

Also I just want to say that I have done 6K damage games where I fired 80% of my entire ammo capacity and resulted in a win. So what is your point?

I was winning in the t92e1 a lot last season now it's the opposite. Can't pen wz120 on the side and missing a lot of shots. I'm not even playing it in random anymore.

cedar river
#

@bleak crest more better players around this season, and tbh, Im happy you dont do wel in it. The rockets really dictate a lot of battles. :v

#

I also think its funny how stevo is immune to the whole player shaming of others when he posts a picture without hiding any names at all lol.

ornate spoke
#

Cancracker is the matchmaking still rigged?

sonic sedge
#

@cedar river I wasn’t ‘player shaming’ though, I mentioned nothing derogatory about the players just screen shots of the results! Just confirming what I & a few others already think!

cedar river
#

Hmm, I got called out for that more often than not.

bleak crest
#

I wasn’t using a lot of rockets anyways but I’m forced to use now, @cedar river

@bleak crest orrrrrr you just use another tank 😁

@bleak crest Apparently you are forced to camp in a T54 and do 0 damage as well 🤔

fossil moth
#

why change rank mm when you can remove missiles so players stop playing lights liek they are doing now xd

sharp frigate
#

Could there be a change for the max number of TDs as well (down to 2 from 3)? Since 3 TD matches especially on maps like castilla or dead rail result in long and boring matches since you cannot peek without getting hit by a TD and nor can the enemy so both teams just camp and wait for one side to make a mistake...

agile sphinx
#

What about the max number of heavies too? Maybe from 7 down to 4 just to prevent the absolutely terrible games with 5 heavies per team?

5 heavy matches with TDs and without Meds or lights is just a camping mess

@sharp frigate
every limit makes harder to former teams for MM. Especially on servers with lower numbers of players.

agile sphinx
#

@patent pier Thankfully almost never, but even at higher ratings where lights and meds are a better option because of higher skill caps 5 heavy games are still there fairly regularly. Even 4 heavy games are too much really but small changes help a lot

#

Also I very rarely see 3v3 lights too

as soon as its a T9/10 the chances of 3 v 3 lights is kinda high due to T92E1 and Sheridan beeing played a lot as far as i experienced

bleak crest
#

I had a great team as a low tier, no shots went in in spite of what the hit skin showed. @agile sphinx . What is you in game name so I know who I'm talking to?

agile sphinx
#

Most of my games are 2v2 lights, 3 is a rarity from my experience.
@bleak crest One of your two shots hit and did 0 damage while you were camping, you realise that there are other things you can do as a low tier too? Also it isn't that hard to figure out who I am, use your brain it should be good exercise for it

bleak crest
#

I dont know what battle are we talking about. I lost 3 in a row in t54, so there are 39 players to choose from

agile sphinx
#

If you camp that often in a T54 then you should be ashamed of yourself, but it was on mines to clear that up for you

So now we talk 13. You probably did pretty well yourself especially if you were on my team.

I met cancracer today on Normandy. The first minute he camped, then he flanked and died. But he did his 1.6K dmg so I am not bashing him. The RHM lost everything.

Question about the is6 fearless. You get 10 certificates for coming to diamond league but if you do this this season and the next you will only have 20 of 100. Aint that just useless since you cant get 90 by anything or will you be able to collect certificates for all seasons in the future?

pine falcon
#

"Starting from Spring Season". I assume it means that from now on, every season you finish in diamond league you get the corresponding parts of the certificate

glossy raptor
#

But it says in an other text that you can obtain these certificates in this and the next season

pine falcon
#

where? Can you show me? @glossy raptor

Good idea to recalibrate matchmaking. But please not only by light tanks. If a team had 2x is4 / 1x is7 / 1x JgE100 / 1x Obj 704 and 2 Medium Tanks and it will be matched against a team witch had 1x Amx 50 B / 2x Tier 9 Heavys / 1x Obj 268 / 2x Tier 9 Tds and one medium tank. There is no way to win this game. This is also a stupid MM.

pine falcon
#

Hmmm. We should ask for confirmation.

#

@patent pier Will the parts for the IS6 Fearless certificate be available from now on, for every rating season, or is it just for this season and the next?

@patent pier Will the parts for the IS6 Fearless certificate be available from now on, for every rating season, or is it just for this season and the next?
@pine falcon it will last longer than this season and next one, don't worry. There will be enough time to get the tank if you can get to the diamond league.

Thanks. 👍

Is there still a need to limit queue sessions? Idk how it affects the demographics of ratings but I know at least for me it prevents me from playing ratings almost at all.

Again lots of players calibrating so it’s impossible to play

are people having global packet losses in ratings games

little heron
#

you have a problem with the MM!! This battle should be perfectly balanced (3595-3591). Seeing this type of ranked battle result demonstrates the problem you don't want to solve with your MM. All battles, all modes combined, too often end in these results. Don't change anything you're geniuses.

bleak crest
#

And to top it all off there are again bounces on weak spots, no damage on fully aimed shots and the enemy scores hits on the move with derpy guns. Just not worth playing when these things happen.

agile sphinx
#

@little heron Read the pinned messages

@bleak crest That isn't anything to do with ratings at all and so it doesn't belong in this channel

bleak crest
#

It has because it just shows it’s not different to random as in it has the same flaws that bug it for years.

agile sphinx
#

Funnily enough because it's the same game you are still going to have RNG that affects everyone (yes even people who camp spawn in meds) and that isn't anything to do with rating battles. That means your complaint doesn't belong in this channel.

does caping bases bring more points in ratings ?

#

@thorn portal , points come from xp and capping gives you xp so yes absolutely

Only cap bases if it’s supremacy in ratings, don’t sit on the cap if its not & hope to win, it hardly ever works...& don’t do it if you’re in an Rhm (supposed to support the team) like someone did on my team of randoms the other day 🤦‍♂️ Still lost.

How long will it take for some people to realize that matchmaking is based on the people; if someone of you aren’t apes or spending your entire time whining about a pointless topic then there wouldn’t be games that end up like that often 🙂

@mossy badger forever. Some folks will never realize this.

mossy badger

ornate spoke
#

It is much easier to blame others for a loss then it is to take accountability for what you as an individual could have done better. Why learn from your mistakes when you can just pawn them off on someone else?

mossy badger
#

very great idea

ornate spoke
#

Sadly it's not an original idea. It's been going on for as long as I've been playing.

cosmic cypress
#

Well said

bleak crest
#

If I do top damage in a low tier tank how can the loss be my fault? It’s just ridiculous. If the 2-3 tanks die in the first minute there’s nothing one can do to win unless the others don’t rush but it doesn’t depend on the player anymore.

ornate spoke
#

Something can be learned from even the worst games.

bleak crest
#

Yes, not to help certain type of players 🤣🤣🤣

sonic sedge
#

Nothing can be learned from ‘even the worst games’, only that some pawns instead of Queens were put on your board on your side! There should be a separate calibration mode for players that have not calibrated yet, having just been in a battle where our IS3 Defender fired 3 shots was calibrating & only ONE hit it’s target!!
Yeah ratings is supposed to be a players ‘personal rating’,which it so isn’t!
It would be easier if there were a mission to ‘lose 3 ratings battles’ as I would have done that by now, having only played 3 ratings battles today with a tier 7 🤣

@sonic sedge There is something to be learned from every single game you play. Win or lose. What you choose to learn is on you but to say that there is nothing to learn is a flat out lie. You are doing yourself a injustice if you refuse to learn both from your mistakes and those of others.

On that note this is not your channel to complain about matchmaking. It needs to stop.

UPDATE- Guys the teams are pretty good today.. go play ratings

#

(NA server)

bleak crest
#

Yes, on the EU servers too, I made up all the losses

ornate spoke
#

good to hear 😄

native marten
#

I calibrated 2.7k (the lowest I've ever done) but reckon by tomorrow I can hit 4k easy

#

the MM feels a bit weird since most of the games were like 7-3 or so when the team's average rating was like 3.5k but once you hit like 4k average teams it starts to get closer, so that's an improvement

cedar river
#

Why would you even look at that.... the team that loses one or two tanks first is likely to lose and also more likely to lose 7-3(or less). If the other team plays a little decent that is.

native marten
#

you’d be surprised at the amount of games you can turn around even if you start off at a 5v7 as long as your teammates stay calm

feels like teams mainly lose after they lose like one or two guys and then their team just 1 by 1 makes yolo plays

Can this mode make it obligatory to run full provisions + equipment + camo? It sorta doesn’t help anyone when some dude wanted to save credits and decided it’s too expensive to just buy freaking provisions or something

fallen mortar

id support that

I don't run provisions on most tanks (except tanks which are really bad). The bonus is so little that there is no point in using it

Then again, there’s no harm really for running it anyways

native marten
#

It’s just that I feel like everyone should be running provisions and camo and full equipment in this mode is that it doesn’t really hurt to have like 100 more HP or have a more accurate gun, since it’ll benefit you in every battle

pine falcon
#

equipment, yes. But provisions don't do much...

median zenith
#

Provisions do a lot, especially for view range. They really should be running them.

restive dawn

Someone aint running full equipped tank?

fallen mortar
#

10% Extra is quite a lot imo

pine falcon
#

provisions are poo poo imo.

fallen mortar
#

12% for both together is lots 3k to 3,3k dpm is one shot more in a min and that changes much imo

cedar river
#

Why wouldnt you prepare your tank to its full potential.... you had 19 mil credits to throw at this passive event for 22k free exp and some gold but too greedy to purchase provisions lol. 🤔

cosmic cypress
#

I mean any advantage is an advantage no matter how small

pine falcon
#

bruh, 3 meters more view range won't do anything.

cosmic cypress
#

But like why not have that extra 3 meters

pine falcon
#

because why spend 2K+ credits for something that rarely helps. I may be wrong but 10K credits for each battle just to resupply something that give you a very little

drifting cedar
#

Food makes your tank basically 10% better and the smaller food makes everything 3% better

native marten

But if the stuff only helps and doesn't hurt, then why not run it if it'll just improve your performance?

@muted shuttle well it say all cammos, and professional cammos are... well cammos. So either 1) The professional cammos are obtainable and they don't have to do anything or 2) They need to clarify and edit the post to mark that the prof. camos are not available

pine falcon
#

there is a big difference if you lose with 3K dmg and if you draw with 3K dmg. In the draw situation you will probably gain like 5-8 points or only lose a few. but on the loss situation you will lose like 10. So the sheridan just wanted it for his rating

glacial junco
#

Yo I have a matchmaker improvement suggesstion! How about balance teams above 4500 rating by the amount of atgm vehicles brought to the battle. I mean, statistically, setups will remain quite similar, because good players take vehicles from a very limited list of mediums, tds AND THOSE DUCKING SHERIDANS. Sorry, i think i lost my temper for a second here, but im alright now. But back to the topic- every vehicle type has its “natural predator”, russian meds cancel tds, british heavies delete russian meds, etc. But after the addition of american t9 and 10 light tanks, the balance has shifted a little. My point is that those tanks can peek-a-boo every single medium tank, easily deal with 90% of the players in 90% of the tank destroyers AND destroy the heavy tanks with their premium rounds. These vehicles just dont need rockets to be successful. You see, i didnt grind the stb-1 to get hit for 490 damage every 15 seconds while im trying to hold a ridge on middleburg against enemy player in a t110e5 in 4672 team rating match. Hopefully, this message will be read by someone, who can understand my (although im certain, there are more people out there, who would agree) frustration and has the power to actually influence the game balance.

Tier 8 ratings have been just awful the last few weeks i usually rank somewhere halfway in gold league and finish higher, now i struggle to stay in, BAN all players below 50% with green or lower stars, everytime i lose i see these players on my team im usually top damage by atleast 1k with team mates doing 0-900 dmg. WG get ready for some replays!

If u can’t go up and u playing t8 ratings, that gonna be ur fault. Yes there are bad players, but they will be on both teams, meaning yeah u won’t get support, but u don’t need support if u farm damage off the other team from a safe position (not camping though)

ornate spoke
#

Mate i understand what you are saying but in tier 8 its not possible to do all the damages, if 1-2 players on my team are sat in the open getting drilled theres only so much you can do, there should be a higher standard in ratings or even a qualification to be able play in ratings make it more of a competition to get in if you dont make the cut try harder. I have replays of some really awful play honestly it is unreal, when players that are bad notice that they lose win rate they go to ratings. I did it myself for a while until i improved, this isnt what ratings are for.

@dreamy shale there are some tanks which have several guns able to be used in rating. Like the SU 152 has the 152 mm and the fast firing gun allowed. I believe lttb is the same way. There are a few tanks like that.

dreamy shale
#

@pine falcon thank you for that response, but it doesn't really give any clarification as to what wargaming considers "mount top modules". Are they only referring to the modules required to research the next tank?

pine falcon
#

@dreamy shale in the past it was top modules only. Only later they added the option to use some non top guns. I assume they forgot to change the description

dreamy shale
#

@pine falcon so turret, engine, and tracks will always have to be highest tier and some top guns are optional?

pine falcon
#

i think so.

Is your rating rewarding enough?
Just curious to know if playing rating battles is worth it since i have never played it

bleak crest
#

It’s worth for credits and xp, nothing else as wargaming doesn’t really understand that some don’t want low skill players in their battles. Also be aware that the ranked queue is touch and pc mixed no matter your setting.

pallid arch
#

Play ratings if you want to see smashers and an exceptionally high number of missile tanks.

#

Remove encounter battles

bright perch
#

Playing rating should give a real advantage in terms of credits or experience

#

Even maybe giving some premium tanks for free for platinum or diamond players

#

Cause there is no point to play them (although I'm playing ratings) 😂

#

I mean in lots of games you have the casual and the ranked, and even thought some players play casuals lots of them play ranked cause there is sth behind to get

agile sphinx
#

@bright perch There is currently an extremely rare prem available to the top players and based on your league you get XP and credit bonuses. You have literally said you want what is already there...

bright perch
#

Yes but the bonuses are not very high and I mean the top players in ranks get a reward but not those who are in diamond or platinium

#

OK yes I get a camo but that's all

agile sphinx
#

And because it's so easy to get to there there shouldn't be a good reward... And 66% bonus is pretty big for over 5k idk what the lower leagues get

I’ve not been placed in the ‘winning teams’ most of the day,whichever tier I play...lost like over 600 points in one day,seen bad players (I’ve played over 70k battles) & bad matching like the mines map where more td’s on the other team wins! Players that are still calibrating on either team that score zero!
Yet I can win battles on normal random mode...Go figure the whacked ‘ratings mode’!
Ah but no one is supposed to moan about it on this channel 🙄
you’re either lucky with the players you get..or you’re not..
No one person can win for a random ‘team’ of 7 so it’s not your ‘personal rating’ whatsoever,just what war gaming want you to have!

sonic sedge
#

@blissful portal exactly,I won that many points to get so far in the first place then to lose them all in a day then the err ‘matching’ isn’t random otherwise ratings points earning would be more stable! Lose a few then win a few,but certainly not lose more than you win,that shows the dice is loaded against you! I’m not the only player to have noticed this either for all of you who think its just the singular player that can lose an entire ‘team’ of SEVEN battle!!🙄

pine falcon
#

I can't say much this season as I am not doing very well in rating atm, but I can definitely tell you this. By having played 70K battles you should have learned by now how to make decisions. Also judging from the battle I met you I can judge this: You want to be independent, you don't want a team to work with even if the players are good (for example Abyss and I are pretty good players (don't remember the rest of the players)). Instead of going with the rest of the team, you go alone to "defend" the flank for barely 30 secs after the enemies were spotted.

sonic sedge
#

@ornate spoke you won’t get extra credits if you’re placed with a bad ‘team’ as they’ll yolo or have a lower rating than you & usually score zero if they’re STILL calibrating after all this time then you’ll get destroyed soon after having fired not that many shots!

#

@pine falcon yeah don’t forget I scored more than you in that battle despite getting destroyed BEFORE you! 🤦‍♂️YOU missed 4 shots out of 6 in a tier 9-10 battle....I STILL have the screen shot...

pine falcon
#

I got like 2.6K assist damage that game xD @sonic sedge So don't try to push the bs that you scored "higher: then me xD

sonic sedge
#

@pine falcon I did

#

Scored more hits than you too, even if you do think you’re ‘gifted’! 🤦‍♂️

pine falcon
#

1st) Well stats don't lie and I would say that 58.5% is pretty decent (anyone who disagrees please speak up) but I never ever said I am gifted, just a played who is decently above average
2nd) I have a battle, if you want I can send it (it is in Amaunets competition) (I can offer screenshots if you don;t want the replay) 3K damage dealt with 6.1K assist. A grille on my team has 5.5K dmg. sooo he scored more hits but do you think he did more work than me?
@sonic sedge

#

sonic sedge
#

@pine falcon you called ME out yet AGAIN! stats!? They are not YOUR stats,like the same as ratings..it’s whatever ‘team’ you’re put with..

I call you out because YOU CONSTANTLY COMPLAIN!!!. Its a team game, if you want personal rating go play fortnut or some shitty battle royale game

@pine falcon whats ‘fortnut’? Which has NOTHING to do with ratings! TROLL

mossy badger

Bro why is it that everytime I come here it’s Stevo complaining about mm

#

If you consistently lose that many times it’s 100% your fault...

pine falcon

fortnut is fortnite. You clearly haven;t heard of memes. And I refer to it because it is a solo game

sonic sedge
#

@no its not xXABCXx#8458

pine falcon
#

And that is what you want, you want to rely on your own skill. You don;t trust anyone, not even your mom or dad

mossy badger
#

it’s only your team’s fault if you do 3x more damage than 2nd place on your team multiple times in a row

pine falcon
#

you want to be independent, you want to do what you want. But then you will realize you have no one to blame for you losing as it is solo.

sonic sedge
#

For your information my dad died of cancer over 24yrs ago

Of course that’s a general guideline and does not always determine “carrying”. Bottom line: it’s illogical to complain about mm when everyone at some point has the same mm as you

Now come on how to do defend yourself against a sheridan that isn't even spotted and he hits you with a missiles over the mountain

Players should start acting as a team and wargaming should stop rewarding selfish gameplay by the current point system. Atgm need to be rushed but nobody wants to lose hp and thus potential damage later on because of the points. So they better lose with higher damage and then cry.

cursive thorn
#

you can't rush on high rating games they all playing as a team

cosmic cypress
#

Not rushing isn’t selfish it’s called conserving your hp so that you can live longer into the game it a pretty basic concept if you survive longer you can do more damage and help your team more. If you rush a missile tank with even a semi-competent team around it you won’t kill it and you will die.

torn wave
#

I have a question.......In ratings battles for the Platinum camo, do you need to have 50 battles at the tier, or 50 battles in a specific tank? The rules say 50 battles in the tier but they’re vague

agile sphinx
#

@torn wave 50 games at that tier, and the most played tank gets the camo.

torn wave
#

@agile sphinx That’s exactly the way the rules say it works but some people are saying 50 battles in each tank per tier.

native marten
#

lol it looks like I gotta buy back my JP2 that I grinded in ratings then

torn wave
#

Here is where I’m at, from the rules I should get the camo for the 3 tanks

pretty sure the smasher can’t get a camo since you can’t change its camo

you still have a while to get to platinum though so yeah

crystal bay
#

Make it so players must be within 750 points of each other to be matched with exceptions if one minute has passed without matching- increase to 1500, then after 1:30 can be matched to anyone

#

Idk maybe

#

They should release the platinum/diamond camos as a certificate because i like grinding my tanks in rating battles and i would like to put that camo on my favorite tanks

native marten
#

750 is still kinda wide, but it’s better than right now when you see like a 1.7k player in a match full of high 3k mid-4k players

#

Just saying that 750 is kinda wide because like the different between a 5k player and low 4k player is pretty big, or a low 4k player (like 4250 or so) would probably also be like “ew why am I getting matched with a 3500 player”

What's a good tech tree tier 7 for ratings? I am done with missiles

And that was after after a 2.5 minute wait that I exited and reentered

@pallid arch Panther is good. Recommend SU-152 cuz it doesn’t care who it’s shooting. unpopular opinion but sp1c carried me thru diamond a few seasons ago

But smashers proved weren't around back then. That is what is keeping me out of my type62

Oh wait Tiger I @pallid arch

@crystal bay goodish idea, but servers like Asia and probably NA would always have to wait 1min if not 1:30 just to get their usual MM.

scarlet fox
#

@unique olive yes, and discussing mods decisions might get you another one. Please check #rules, act accordingly and you'll do fine

bleak crest
#

There should be 2-3 tiers that don’t meet each other but probably there aren’t enough players in rating. So inexperienced players might get into battles that they shouldn’t really be in as they are out of their depth at that level. And it’s not doing damage that’s the main problem but the positioning.

Can u help me, my game is rigged, 20loses in row

@odd maple Whete is balance?

fallen mortar
#
  1. never ping WG staff unless they are actively typing in the channel 2. your MM isnt rigged u probably suck 3. the higher you get the less points u earn so u also loose less 4. why the heck do you even play 20 battles if you keep loosing just take a break after 3 or so
sonic sedge
#

@fallen mortar Why do you suggest taking a break if ‘you keep loosing’ (losing),I’m curious?

mossy badger
#

That’s a common tip for all multiplayer games
There’s really no point in continuing to play if you’re losing many in a row cuz obviously anyone would be pissed off and continue to perform worse and worse. It’s like the pitfalls of gambling
btw diamond players obviously lose less because they also win less. That’s been established since the beginning of rating battles

rich kiln
#

Maybe I'm not p2w bcs I saw many diamond players in T-22 Medium, but I don't have that tank :)

mossy badger
#

wait bruh when was that ever part of the argument
If you’re also in diamond you also lose less rating if you lost a game

scarlet fox
#

@sonic sedge it is solid advice that @fallen mortar is giving. The more you lose, the more determined people get to win the next game. And that usually leads to bad decisions in game like over extending, trying to get that one shot in only to get blasted by the TD behind, etc

cosmic cypress

You definitely play worse when you start getting frustrated

When I get frustrated I carry sometimes because I get really ambitious

You need to close the game to reset some “internal settings”, sometimes even close it for that day. A very good player gave me that advice.

@rich kiln I’ve experienced the same, 36% wr throughout 100 games. The rating was dead set on 4500 and didn’t want to go up. You have to just leave it for a few days, then come back and play your favorite vehicle. Rating will go up.

What is the best tier for gaining rating points? Feel like tier 10 is really tough b/c unicums love spamming atgm tanks, and they are impossible to counter imo, which is in contrast to what Droodles said about t10 being best by always being top tier

native marten
#

I mainly play tier 7/8, with tier 7 you’re guaranteed to always get downtiered but you don’t have to deal with pesky ATGMs, at tier 8 you can either carry a tier 7/8 game easily or risk getting downtiered and having to deal with the T92E1, though you can minimize the chances of the latter by going into queue, checking out when there’s a small amount of tier 9 but a good amount of tier 7-8 tanks to try to get into a match where you’re the top tier

pallid arch
#

The t29 is a really good tank to use. Very usable against high tiers, and I dont have to hear the pshhhhhhhht going past my turret. The only problem is the match making is a lot longer for 7s.

Add tier selection, tank type selection... imagine how long it would take to set a game with Plat only players.
Agreed, tier 8 is nearly premium only
Tier 9-10, the higher you go in rating, the more atgm you see.

#

There are thousands of platinum players already, and is it not enough hell to deal with these broken tanks?

eager carbon
median wagon
#

Ratings is at a terrible state, a mixture of noobs, and op tank spammers

eager carbon

T92E1 is currently the most played/spammed tank. 21k players. T49 2nd with 17k and sheridan 3rd with 11k.

median wagon
#

And we all know why the T92 is most spammed

eager carbon
#

Ratings were originally suposed to be about skill but now its just spam broken tanks and noobs beliving that they can get the fearless

median wagon
#

The 56wr average from across the 21k players proves it

next gull
#

Yep. Ratings is supposedly skill-only based. Apparently many think the tank helps a lot too.

eager carbon
#

It was. Now its a contest of who ever has the most broken tanks and more quantity than the enemy wins. Ratings is now decided not by skill but by mm

median wagon
#

“Worthy opponents”
Enemy T92 camps, bounces every single shot off his upper glacis and dominates the game

next gull
#

It is going to be nerfed. We will see. Anyway, the best tanks (stat-wise) will always be spammed. To date, it is the T92E1

median wagon
#

It doesn’t look like a good enough nerf, it needs more

I can farm damage much easier in my tanks that aren't op. The op ones get tunneled and I get free shots

I discovered it while just trying to splash the turret

median wagon
#

These unpennable turrets even have extra spaced armour

eager carbon
#

And not only that but we will get the tier X version the super conq that for some reason also has frontal spaced armor

median wagon
#

That thing will surely dominate in tier X

eager carbon
#

the only bad thing about it is accuracy because somehow WG thinks that bad accuracy on a broken tank = balanced

median wagon
#

So WG can’t balance, but they can balance when it comes to an SU 130PM. First time you did something worthy

next gull
#

At least at tier X, you are away from low battle count players who bought a tier 8 premium to see if it helps getting above 40% wr.
Well, ratings do not impact wr. Then I don't know why do that.

median wagon
#

All tiers 7-10 are full of broken tanks

eager carbon

the SU 130PM event will be p2w. Either the tank is super trash or its worth it. Either way i cant see WG adding a new tier 8 and then making a event for it that can be done with out nolife or cash

Why do noobs honestly even attempt to get the IS-6 fearless, ruining matches for the expense of others

#

@eager carbon glad to hear the the camo is a good incentive to play ratings. The more people play ratings, the smaller the rating span in each battle.

median wagon

The more people play ratings=higher abundance of noobs

0.01% of the player base actually has skill

meh all i want is for my grille to have a decent camo one thats not bought by credits. And since im wayyy too lazy to grind 750 gold in ads id rather the camo

If noobs were removed from wotb, the game will be a desert

@median wagon Has skill and its not a reroll or seal clubbers

well to be fair all games have noobs nowadays, WoTB isnt the only one

next gull
#

@eager carbon Play 50 games in grille, or at least 26 ten complete with another at tier 10. Then spam tier 8 with a good tank to get to 4k.

Oh and talking about reroll, those are the ones to have IS-6 fearless on first run

Lol! My type 59 average wr is 48% in ratings

but oh well what can you do. All ppl want the same. IS 6 Fear. So they go the easy way for it. And since all games are made out of noobs nowadays sadly theres nothing much you can do other than spamming the broken tanks yourself as well or just keep trying your best with normal ones and maybe lord MM will allow you to achieve your goal

Tbh id rather actual bots on my teams sometimes over teammates

@eager carbon - yep. In higher ratings leagues you notice a huge shift in the tanks being driven.

eager carbon
#

Lemme guess: MK1 Def, Caern Act X, WZ 120 1 FT, Smasher, T92E1, Sheridan, Maus, JPanther.

median wagon
#

It’s because everyone is fighting each other with broken tanks because they can’t play regular tanks like a regular person

#

So they have to use something op to mask it

#

Also ratings is much more toxic than regular matches, everyone is sweating to try and get the IS-6 fearless

glossy raptor
#

Play an op tank yourself

eager carbon
#

yeph sadly thats the only way to win nowadays

late mural
#

Why is "everyone" here complaining and spamming about "everyone wants the IS-6"?

  1. It can't be true, because the IS-6 is about the most boring prize WG could think of AND because the effort needed to get one is huge/impossible to most players.

  2. If it were true, why would that be bad? Ratings badly needs more players, so if people fall for this stupid gimmick and play more, that's only a good thing.

agile sphinx
#

I think what the IS6 has done is motivated the better part of the playerbase to play ratings, which is amazing for the game. I still see noobs but they are much much rarer than they used to be because there are so many more people near my rating so I can get matched with them easily. It's never going to be possible to stop people seeing noobs but so far most of my games have been against good players and they have been enjoyable.

I really like the way WG have started trying to bring back ratings, the unique (or close enough) prem for the top players is a great idea (and they didn't choose a broken tank which is great), but then also the parts allowing people who aren't in the top 10 to get there eventually. The one thing I don't like is how WG have said it will be possible to get it just by getting 5k because that doesn't really require skill just battle spamming, but I get that they want to make it more accessible to people. All WG have to do now is keep changing the rewards every so often so people don't get bored and stop playing because they already have the rewards.

Whats wrong with matchmaking??? At tier8 approximate 200 points or more between the teams!!

agile sphinx
#

@fleet sinew You realise that 200 points is barely anything at all, especially at 4k rating. After maybe 400 points at that low a level it becomes an issue

fleet sinew

I get (with me) 2 over 4000 and rest under this and red team had 1x 4600, 3x 4200, 2x 3000 and one without calibration. I think this mm is a very big issue.

agile sphinx
#

The players who haven't finished calibrating yet have a preliminary rating that is taken into account when doing the matchmaking but isn't displayed, and that sounds like a fine battle to me I'm guessing you lost otherwise you wouldn't be complaining...

Do tier 9s fight tier 8s?
@ornate spoke

Off of what @pine falcon said bc he's totally right. Since there's not many players in rating queue that means (With a lot of Luck and timing) u may easily enter a tier 8 battle with tier 9. All u have to do is simple math. 14 players in need to b in a game, so subtract that into some even number between the tiers. For instance to get in a tier 8 battle with tier 9 there should b a low amount of tier 10's and a higher amount of tier 9 and 8's. Keep in mind that the 8's could and most likely will pare with the 7's and like what R_servik21 said ur just more likely gonna get into a tier 10 match.

Yes I know. I was just wondering if the tiers were separated into different groups but he answered that for me.

It's hard to survive with tht paper armor

tired vault
#

Idk how wg could fix it, nor do I care, but the way ratings works now is you only need to spam battles to achieve higher ranks. I mean the main problem is that players are not punished as much for a loss. When holding the #1 spot you will gain 8-15 per win and lose only 2-3 per loss.

terse sapphire
#

Well thats fair losing 2 to 10 points doing top most damage in the losing team

tired vault
#

Yeah but the #1 guy can do like 4th best damage and still only lose like 3 points

#

And damage isn’t the only thing that wins games btw

mossy badger
#

Which is why season 1 is better as it equally punished everyone by a lot but also rewards them by a lot
This system just rewards damage farmers and not exactly game winners
Sure it can unfairly reward that afk once in a while but at least that system made the actual top players in the top 100. Every rating game above 4K has every player who are actually good at the game

fallen mortar
#

the afk part could be fixed just put something that monitors if you moove or do dmg which is pretty much already in the game adn if those numbers are to low just dont give em points or let them loose some

Btw is this season lasting for 2 months or will it get reseted at the end of the month like usually?

Skill will still get you to 5k, but the only way to get to the top is to battle spam. Having skill makes it easier but a 50%er could come first place if they spent every single minute spamming games. You aren't punished for losing enough, and you aren't punished for doing badly enough so you will always keep getting a higher rating

@glossy raptor if you reached 5k in 50 battles, you are a god in my eyes.

Tier8 can be somewhat painful. I find I am often bottom tier. Then a mobile tank is necessary to escape the T92s.

fallen mortar
#

@agile sphinx actually i think a 50% would struggle a lot because up there spaming isnt as effective anymore if your rating battles have an avg of 5k or even above since most players there are imo pretty good and you keep meeting LOCA and stuff and they are in nearly every battles so spamming gets a little hard for less skilled players the spam has a limit imo and @pine falcon i think its because more people actually try and so does thier tank of choice change

#

Ranked is so easy to farm points, if you average a 57% winrate and play enough battles, you can accomplish whatever you need

agile sphinx
#

@fallen mortar They would struggle, but it would still be possible for them to come top which shows the system is completely useless at determining the best players in each region which it should be doing. I don't think there is a limit to anyone except a bad players rating unless you get to the point where its actually impossible to gain or lose any points. Good players will get there faster but it's still possible for average players to get there.

@tropic solar - you didn't understand my point. I didn't say that premium vehicles are not pay to win. I said Cancracker believes the MM (match maker) is rigged to favour players that spend money.

While those tier 7 and premiums are good, there's still plenty of decent tech tree tanks kicking around those tiers - but agreed - the Smasher is obnoxiously good.

@cursive thorn if T9 wouldnt be able to meet T10 in ranked they would spam them even more since the gap is kinda big between 8 and 9 imo atleast for tanks like wT

on high rating points i guess most of us playing t10 but some of abusers spamming this t92 😦
@cursive thorn Yep. t92 ideal rating platform as you will face Tier VIII where you will be godly and even at Tier X, you are basically another Tier X because the T92 = The Sheridan in terms of performance.

#

So your team automatically has a leg up in terms of tier balance if their tier IX doesn't also include a t92e1.

Make ratings tier 10 only and then not only do you get rid of most of the bots with 100 games and a tier 8 prem, you also get rid of most of the unbalanced tanks.

that honestly applies to any tank, but still imo the leopard 1 shouldn't be your first choice for a medium tank in this mode

@bleak crest The teams are fairly well balanced, so if you have noobs on your team you have noobs to farm. If you have good players on the reds then you have good players to carry you 🤷‍♀️

It seems to be harder to get to higher ratings this season because of the larger amount of players going after the fearless so you get 5k average games fairly often. At this level you need to work as a team to win so you do less individual damage and so gain less points.

bleak crest
#

I’ve noticed that but amazingly in 5k battles I do better than in 2-3 k ones. My team doesn’t listen and splits most of the time. This goes on and on and I bleed points because of that. I get 25-30% win rate which doesn’t cover losses.
