I am here on the suggestions of some people in game, as I am aware I need some help if I plan on improving from abysmal to partially serviceable. My issue is an inability to win at all, literally. My problems started a month or two back, when I first started having lose streaks. Before that, my winrate was in the ballpark of 48 % or so. Once I hit the A-20, my first lose streak kicked in. I would go days without winning a single battle. Eventually, I ground my way past that tank and made the KV-1, in which I had normal success. Then, when I hit KV-1S, things took a turn for the worse. There were several days straight where I wouldn't win a single battle out of hours and hours of gameplay, dropping my winrate to 38% (I know, I'm garbage). It got so bad that I would have to go out and take out my rage on shrubs with an axe, and yet, I still kept playing, despite this (being practically blind with fury probably didn't help). In hindsight, I should have just put the game down. Anyhow, hundreds of lost games in a row does a number on you, and my win streak never recovered.
What has personally helped was going back and playing the new European Nation tech trees (I was able to get an M in the Vickers Mark F), but I think it's probably a good idea to stop running from my problems.
While there are plenty of 12 year olds who constantly message me to tell me I'm [edited], there is always a good player who tells me to go to the forums for tips, so that's why I'm here. I'm not sure if all these losses are entirely my fault, or partially the result of bad teams, but I'm trying to improve. Obviously, some of it is outside my ability to influence, I seem to be very frequently placed with teams which consistently run in and die early game with little coordination, but I'm looking input. I suppose it's mostly my fault.
