PREM AMMO in ranked

Draschel: It does improve a persons performance. No one doubts that. So do equipment, 5 skill crews, large consumables and nation rations, exterior camo paint, directives Use this example, because prior to equipment 2.0 it was clearer::A casual but determined lime-green grinder (50-52% bracket) who still seeks wins and does his or her part in getting those wins, who doesn't spend lots of gold and free exp, grinding through a tank with 100% basic crew - former binoculars / tool box / camo net that were mountable and de-mountable (decent choices for casual grinders on temporary tanks) didn't really bother with rented exterior paint camo, didn't bother to use directives or nation's rations / auto fire extinguisher but rather sticks with small kits and manual fire extinguisher or something reusable like engine governor. Didn't bother to at least unlock tracks with free exp, so all modules from last tank can be immediately applied and full equipment can be mounted if weight restrictions are in play without the tracks. Didn't bother blocking a beneficial map of choice.....and finally used a 75%/20%/5 AP/APCR/HE ammo split. Now take the same player, same tank who unlocks the tracks and turret using free exp, immediately gaining access to not only no restrictions for equipment and former tier middle modules - but also has the turret HP+dispersion+view range+armor upgrade. They decide to use the middle gun from last tier, middle engines and grind to elite, fine. They instead of using demountable, savings equipment, focus on traditional setups like Optics, ventilation, vertical stabilizer  or  gun layer,  rammer. They use not necessarily nation's rations, but definitely large kits and automatic extinguisher. They have a 5 skill crew trained with gold so no exp loss from former tier transition. Tank is painted in camo.  Crew skills are core setups, like BIA/CORE/repairs/camo/firefighting. A directive of choice is used. A beneficial/annoying map is blocked by the user, not favoring the tank. And finally......the users load out is 97% APCR, 3% HE Who is doing better? We both know. But ONLY PREMIUM AMMO, isn't the sole reason. Premium ammunition shouldn't be held in such a sole and high regard, as it alone is an example of something one can implement, to make you better, even if  just 1-2% W/R better. Many things can be done to make someone better. Premium ammunition gets such negative hype, because it is a bad players scapegoat.
