Subject: So I got the AE Phase 1....

Kramah313, on May 29 2021 - 20:02, said: How do you feel like it compares to the M103? I find that to be fun
but I’m not that good in it. However it seems a lot better now that
I just got it fully upgraded.
Link on message: #12841674

Draschel: AE Phase 1 is M103, but better. Less weakness, more
flexibility, more mobility, At the cost of raw offense, like
DPM, accuracy, aim-time. I just think AE has better practical
offense In terms of weakness, AE presents
significantly better LFP, sides, turret roof, stronger/smaller
cupola. This allows it to do more things like sidescrape, or bully
tier 7s which can still penetrate M103 easy. M103 is also far more
vulnerable to HE, the sides drop to 44mm. And prone to those
120-122mm overmatch, alot of the turret roof still is 38mm
While the DPM and aim-time/accuracy of M103 are better, this
will only matter at shorter ranges. AE has superior dispersion
stats, meaning its ability to fire on the move is far better. This
is very important, and leaves the vehicle feeling more
comfortable. Mobility is important, and M103 is already
quite mobile to begin with. AE improves on that, by adding top
speed, HP/T, track traverse across the board.

Steeldeathdriver, on May 29 2021 - 20:01, said: Why is it that after 6 years of playing this game the most
consistently toxic players I have encountered are the top clan
players. And they immediately whip out there stat shaming bat to
somehow try to impress/demoralize/emotionally injure you and
encourage you to leave the game. Fortunately, I am at a very good
place in my life so my ego is not bruised when they begin their
toxic tirades. However I am curious
Link on message: #12841670

Draschel: Good players, are a minority. When you run into one, you
remember the event. You base future discussion, feedback, off of
this encounter. One =/= some. Bad players, are the majority.
You don't run into them, they are simply all around you. Like the
air you breathe. They are the norm, and don't arouse
suspicion What caused the negatively, may I ask? It is
pretty important. Keep in mind, that even in life a person's
character resembles this. A bigshot corporate accountant, stock
broker, or lawyer on wall street, clearing 2million annually, will
have a significant attitude difference than a street vendor in NY
selling pretzels and ice-cream. Who are you to judge? In my honest
opinion, toxicity comes in 2 forms. Direct, what you just listed.
Easily spotted, but not too too too common. But there is also the
far more common, indirect toxicity. By being bad, not holding
yourself to anything other than casual due diligence. This isn't
just a game, it is a team game. This isn't mario 64, where what you
accomplish and who you influence, is just you. 14 others are
effected. So, someone insults you because you play bad. I get it.
But you insult an entire team of 14 others, because you inherently
aspire and go out there in battle, as bad. Toxicity is bad, in
every form. Not just 2 people, naming and shaming.

RHeadshot, on May 29 2021 - 14:42, said: Well that's odd. THE ONLY OTHER TIER 10 HEAVY with such low
pen is the E100. It's also odd that if you look at the
hall of fame stats, it seems to have very low requirements to do
well for the tank. But you two keep deluding
yourselves. Point was, don't tell me it's a great gun when
it's worst in pen in its class.
Link on message: #12841663

Draschel: There is not a thing odd here. There is something, very wrong
though. When dealing with 246 penetration, 249 or 252 instead in
most scenarios will not matter. Maybe it will matter, 1 of
15 times, and maybe at that. 246 penetration @ 200m still has
110E3, Badger, 705A LFP (230~) all in green pen marker
ranges. Anymore penetration required than that, will
likely require premium ammunition for any sort of reliability. 260
penetration just won't cut it. And hall of vehicular fame doesn't
just take into account a tanks gun. What kind of answer is
that. You are the delusional. You aren't significantly experienced
in tier 10 matters nor do you usually punch up your level, and you
are arguing with people that do - how do you think that
looks? And there we go. The magic word - great. "Great"
My man, no one said great. As I see it, people have said fine.
Okay. And that is what it is, fine, okay. Only you just responded,
great. And no one said that. A great gun on a heavy tank, we are
talking object 260 gun, or 277. Chieftain gun, or VK7201 gun. But
guns that are fine? Just about every tier X tank has a gun that is
''fine'' except AMXmle54 w/ 130mm, Type 5 w/140mm, Kranvagn, AMX30B
that run into significant issues with premium penetration. This
just in, AP pen isn't what you base things on.

Mayhem300, on May 29 2021 - 16:12, said: Having each match be close in personal rating for the overall team
will not cause all players to come near 50% win rate. It
would bring the outliers a little closer to 50%, but the good
players will still be way above 50% and the bad players will still
be below 50%. What it will do is eliminate the automatic loss
because the teams are so far unbalanced.
Link on message: #12841384

DeviouslyCursed: I want you and SimplySimple to explain how this is possible
when the good players will not be split onto opposite teams. So
when one good player wins, another loses. If it's balanced right,
all will be near 50%. If it's not balanced right you will still
have unbalanced matches you just won't realize it.

1. There are so many games like this now. A change in
the crapmaker (MM) will obviously not stop all blowouts, but a
tweak in MM can stop these kind that are becoming more
prevalent. Please just add the personal rating to make both
teams near each other in each match. You already do something
like this with the ranked battles. This would alleviate some
of the blowouts and show the community that you at least care a
little bit about the quality of the battles in your

Draschel: Maus can and will dominate maps like Ensk, Himmelsdorf. With a bit
more thinking, it will also do it in Paris, Minsk, Pilsen,
ruinberg. Especially in tier 8 battles with 3/5/7.But in order for
anything to dominate, it needs a domineering pilot behind the
wheel, to do the dominating. You aren't that pilot.In these maps,
these situations, Maus will both shape the complexion and also
cause immense damage. You just won't.

possibly right. If you're saying you're better, I suggest you go
prove that in tier 10 (solo). Because as it stands now your tier 10
stats are garbage. I strongly suspect if you solo tier 10 you'll be
below 50%. And when I went all out for win rate, I got a 93%.

Brady. No way he wants easy battles. He wants to be the

So Mr.60% doesn't want that extra 5% of easy battles.
He'd much rather have ALL his opponents be roughly his equal.

DeviouslyCursed: Professional sports analogies are stupid, but since you
started one... Tom Brady winning more than 50% of his games
for a season against other NFL teams is allowed, and expected
because he is good. SBMM is taking the teams and switching
players before every game so that Tom Brady can't win more than 50%
of his games.

DeviouslyCursed: I think it's clear most good players want the extra wins
because they have earned them. How nice of you to assume Mr. 10K is
as clueless as you are. And if this person isn't supposed to want
that advantage (and I'm assuming you think that because you don't
want the advantage), as others have pointed out already, why do you
platoon with other good players and magnify your advantage? You
just said you're not supposed to want it. Though personally, I
think you only get that advantage at all because you platoon. Maybe
you've gotten good at the one tier 7 tank you play also, but I'm
betting if you played tier 10 solo things wouldn't go too well for
you.
