Only because I'm around tier 6 with the Germans.

Ah I'm on US server. Started here and never moved.

Grats, just got mine too. 15.3k xp for the tracks, have everything else. I think I'll grind a few games to save the free xp.

Nice. I wasn't able to grind up my 44 to get the 54 cheap. Too big a hurdle.

That being said, enjoying the Obj. 212. 1-shotted a batchat25t in the first minute of a game as it slid helplessly down a cliff face right into my crosshairs, which so happened to be aimed in that direction, and then found range on quite a few other tanks. Excellent game, took a 103, T34 and a E-100 also.

Then the game before that was dragon ridge, which I detest with every fibre of my soul. I somehow managed to blindshot 3 arties based on tracers and felled trees. Super enjoying artying again.

No luck tonight. Another major losing streak. Teams are shite.

Just when things seem like they can't get any better, after a 10 game loss run, the 212 gets good with a Top Gun.

Follow up with a decent win with the 704, the other couple of wins today have been very mediocre.

yeah both games I fired probably twice what I normally do.

Some players with tier 10s are simply bored. I had a platton of 10s seeing how far they can jump off cliffs yesterday. They said they weren't going to play, which pretty much screwed the other 12 in team up.

Then many vets have preset spots, and the automatically beeline to them. If 12 people have spots on the same side, you know what'll happen. I think a good 50% of my losses are due to overloading one side.

Mostly it's just bad luck, with one side more cohesive than the other. The line is so fine that it doesn't take much for one side to overwhelm - just have one stupid batchat25t leeroy in the first minute, and you're down a critical tier 10. Then with the 212 and S-51, I've had games where I drop the shell smack in the middle of the circle multiple times, and other games where the circle is tight but the shot constantly misses by a few meters and causes no damage -.-

It's the draw of public games. Sometimes I get ridiculous frustrated and that's when you see me post angry posts. Sometimes I get a nice 10 win streak. Wish I won more though. HAve seen guys with hundreds of games and 70%+ wr, but I suppose those aren't completely from public games.

Super noobs nowadays. Takes 4-5 losses before winning a game.
They die so damn easily! Why are the better players always on the other team?

They had a pretty good video presentation of penetration game mechanics up not too long ago. Check out the main site, learnt a few new things esp about the shell normalisation.

7-1 today, but the surprising thing is my teams are carrying me. Playing like crap, only a few hits connecting, but still on the winning side. Had a TD game where I didn't even fire a single shot haha.

This game is really funny sometimes.

122mm D-2-5T on the KV-1S is a pain. Slow reload, inaccurate over long distances and did I mention slow reload?

However, that gun rapes. Alpha is killer, especially on a same/lower tier battle, and it's a very mobile platform.

101 games on KV-1S so far, running about 60% win with 131 kills and 100k of damage @ 72% hit. Surprisingly decent tank, I thought it would miss a lot and I would die horrible embarrassing 50xp deaths.

After 100 games, my little lawnmower hit 72% winrate.
At 117 games, it's now 65% -.-
Combination of noobs, MM putting me as bottom in the team, and bad bad luck.
Maybe I'm being handicapped by MM by being put as bottom tank.

I get what you guys are saying.
Worse thing is, I'm working on the French line TDs, and am on the lower tiers. I take out 3-4 tanks, and top the score sheets: even though I'm the bottomest tank. I punch well above my weight, and sadly watch our top heavy (usually a noob KV-1) think they're all that and leeroy straight towards 5-6 enemy guns.

Either that, or we're super camping and the idiots decide to one-by-one run across and get nailed.

Makes me wanna shoot them all myself.

I turned off encounter games. They drove me crazy, we always lost haha.

I was once in a high tier team that rolled the enemy 15:0. It was awesome, but I didn't do much. Top 3 tier X tanks each pulled in at least 5k dmg. Nuts, man. Must've sucked balls for the enemy. They were super tearing their team apart on chat.

But yeah. I've had the days when winrate is 30%. At least I can b**** about it here and you all know how it goes. Only way is up, there's always gonna be a good day.

Haha I was in my VK3601H up against the 2 last remaing KV-1S, we all about 50% health.

They came charging at me while I was behind a house. I peekaboo and set fire to the first with a shot at his front (dunno how I lit him up) and finished him off easily while he missed me as he shot on the move.

The other one went round the building but was slower than the first one so I also went round. He stop the other side, but I can hit his rear without him hitting me. 3 shots, then set him on fire.

Wah he RAGE. Called me cheater etc. Then summore open up chat window after and accuse me of using gold rounds cos I set fire to both of them haha. Super noob. I told him to piss off cos he though gold rounds were super rounds and can simply set fire to every damn thing. Idiot.

Maybe it's time to clan up.
I think I've played pretty decently so far.
Plugged my name into: http://wot-news.com/stat/calc/en/us
I'm mid-1500s in efficiency, so apparently that's top 2%. Which really doesn't mean much. I'm just a bit tired of underperforming teammates.

lemmings are little critters that follow each other and run off cliffs to their deaths.
google it

Im running very similar stats to you, except with 1k less battles.

Why do u guys have x3?
