Thing is T37 gets into T6 stronkhold matches, where it dominates with DPM, camo bonus for LT, viewrange, mobility etc. and Bulldog is a T7 and isn’t used in T8.

When you compare the win rates of one tank against another then the effect of noobs playing them should be pretty much equal.

Unless one tank becomes a noob magnet.

As someone says below, it’s the number of accounts which played that tank and didn’t have it (or in the case of KV-85, didn’t have the old KV-1S) before.

That’s why the M37 is so high, all Chaffee owners had it unlocked straight away.

Actually my T-54 light has the best win rate of any of the new tanks for me, a full 10% above my account average of 53%, followed by the RU 251 at +7%. I like mine a lot, which is a bit wierd since my T-54 record is… poor… (47%). Granted its early days still for those 2 in terms of number of battles, but the initial results are promising. (Sadly the T-54 has over 300 battles to make up that 47%, so its, um, less promising… :P)

remind me, whitch tier 8 medium is unpenetrable from the front with 170 pen? i think it´s none… maybe Type 59 is coming close to that, but not everyone has that tank… i think LT-54 is not light, it is medium with agvantage of great camo values, and is supposed to be played as such. And it is the only t8 LT that can go against 13 90 to 1v1 fight (except another 13 90 of course), since it is capable of bouncing some 170mm pen shells and ram extremely well with its 31 tons… looking forward to get it :-)

It would be awesome with HESH if you actually had enough ammo capacity to be able to take with you more than few.

I really don’t understand how there are so many stupid people who think win rate in a 15 vs 15 game is a good indicator of whether a tank is good or not.

Usually when a tank is very good it is also played by the most horrible players. There are much more bad players than good players and they bring the win rates down.

Instead of win rate it makes much more sense to judge a tanks strength based on statistics such as the amount of damage negated by armor, the frequency of non-penetrations against tanks armor, the number of penetrations vs non-penetrations and hits vs non-hits at different ranges, damage per game.

It seems so idiotic to me that only win rate is being displayed here, yet so many people are drinking the coolaid or can’t seem to think in a rational manner.

Do you realize you could win Hype59 or 62 when the brit TD line came into live server? It was “who gains best exp – wins” event
