WTF is this?

Ectar: http://wiki.wargamin...Matchmaker_(WoT) Vehicle Weight Once enough candidates for a certain battle tier are found, the matchmaker tries to form two teams from them. For this purpose each vehicle is assigned a certain weight, and the matchmaker tries to keep the weight of both teams as equal as possible. Weighting is performed by vehicle tier and vehicle type, some vehicles are individually weighted, and for some vehicles there are special restrictions.   Sadly "type" of vehicle isn't always a balance. So you're not going to get equal balance of heavies mediums or TD's on each side per tier.  1 team could have heavier top tier tanks and then lower tier lights, whilst the other team has lighter top tiers and then heavier lower tiers  (happened to me last night and thought our team would lose for sure, we instead won only losing 3 tanks).   You got unlucky with your team, RNG of matchmaker sadly.  Panther 8.8 being 2nd top damage when your team has a Jagd pz 100, AMX50b, Bat Chat arty, T-10, Ferdinand and Jagdtiger- That tells it's own story.   Enemy STB appears to have carried with the T-10 and the 2 arty helping them. All other damage is "meh" really. Serene Coast is a good map for the STB if it gets good positioning.
