Does Premium Account boost Win Rate.

It just wasn't fun anymore. I had a premium account and although I earned credits the tanks I had spent 4 years amassing were virtually made redundant if I didn't purchase gold ammo. Penned even by the now newer mediums with auto loaders. So after 6 months out I have tried again. My premium ran out in October and I thought I would see what it was like we  a regard to renewing my premium account. What I have found its now even harder for an oldie like me to play against the even newer much approved premium meds. Now I know WG has to make money and I paid them for 4 years but to continually raise the bar by making hard earned tanks redundant sticks a little with me. I don't even mind being slightly less competitive against a few premium tanks but not the amount that currently populate the game. I consider myself an average player with a reasonable old computer, but I find it telling that my win rate has dropped from over 48% to less than 45% in 3 months of play tells a story. Just coincidence that I stop paying for premium and the rate plummets. I generally finish reasonably well in the team rankings so how do I now find myself  being more often on the loosing team.  The law of averages state this should not be the case. Whilst I understand that WG has to make money I think it is getting very greedy and is likely to price itself out of the market. I for one will no longer pay for a premium account. Would I go into a restaurant that had the best stake in town only to be charged extra for the plate and cutlery. No So in essence WG has lost £80 a year from me. I think also if the none fee paying player base becomes so uncompetitive then this game will die as I doubt their are enough premium accounts to keep it going on its on.  So what I really am trying to say is that this game is no longer fun at high teirs for the average player unless you are prepared to spend a lot of money on premium tanks. Perhaps that is what WG want and are not interested in my money.
