So I am sure I am not the only one, that has a bad day, the sort of day you wonder why you even opened the app.

I guess I am most annoyed at my Patton performance - I've been running it over 70%, as well I'm off my average dmg by 400 in it of late, and my E5 is around 500 off.

What made me post this was a 49% player in a STB who average around 1,100 dmg in his ranting about rigged MM.   Then a 55% super muppet  who started deriding me as a bot - the he drove into the open in an AMX 120 50 and got deleted, 

    I get a chuckle out of those who think MM is rigged again them, at least if they are a 55% or under player.  

 

The player base is just really bad, due to the alignment of the planet's sometimes you get teams that refuse to win.   

[Major_Sweatpants]

yeah, yesterday i wish i had just not played, and not gotten those 3 levels on my battle pass... hopped on at 8:45, out of about 18 battles i won 5. f night teams.

[Ddbro_gaming]

Sometimes you get better players if you have the "same control mode" option off so play with some PC players, but sometimes I turn it on when I want to farm bots lol

[Tackywheat1]

Today, aced the Chieftain mk6 4 times... had a 7k loss and multiple 5k+ losses

[tanker070]

sometimes those same teams that prefer to "wait for action" in some random bush decide to push all together onto medium flank and get my sorry a$$ within 40sec.

 

Really used to think I could predict general movement of teams, but not im having to adapt to only supporting the most Hp on my team... happens to be heavies who just do as they like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

I'm re-learning how to play supportive in all my tanks because of new trends that playerbase is making.

i mean... what else do we expect from 1k battle @ tier9 heavy? 

[acrisis]

Tons of those.

I played a bit the other day. 4 battles. No wins. No fun. Closed the game. No amount of trying harder & smarter helped.  Tapping around. I was the only one above 50% with perhaps one other person on my green teams, so I just closed the game and walked away.  I get it, I'm rusty, I may not position ideally and wotb aim time really messes with me; but, there's no point in playing for me any more under those circumstances. I understand that it is random, and the player base is bad, etc ... I just don't enjoy losing 3 4 5 6 games in a row to win one, especially not, when afterwards I see how the deck was stacked player experience and wr wise. I just try to have a bit of " fun ", try to get a couple birthdays in an old favorite or two; and grind to a couple tanks ... but too many times it is just hopeless with teams.  I don't have the option to dedicate more time. If things don't pan out, maybe next week will be better.

I am constantly getting the impression that I am survivor in a zombie plague that sees a wave of zombies coming and I am about to get swept away.

It is probably time for WG to put those sub-5000-battle players into their own queue on the NA Server. 

 

Even if the percentages are the same (which doesn't make sense mathematically), more players means MORE newbs. It's time to make that change, WG.

Then players like me would only play against players like you.  Sorry bud, but I don't like looking bad all the time.

[wrecker1968]

I seem to be having more and more those days lately. But on the plus side, It is making it easier to play less than 10 games and walk away for the rest of the day(or two). Also I was going to buy the 16K gold chest, But now I cannot justify that. So it's also helping to save a little money.

 So there is actually a positive side to it also.

[RonaldusMaximus_]

I have become aware that most of the heavy players lately are about as useful as a second sphincter on my rear. So I have started to overcome these fail heavy trends by playing my more aggressive light tanks.  I never was a light tank player much before, but I seem to be carrying my teams better now that I made this adjustment.

[twirlingtowardsfreedom]

 

I'm there. Here's my past two weeks. I play a game or two, hate it, toss aside the tablet and move on. Haven't even bothered to go past my low-tier warmups and my effort is...woof. Not sure if I'm burned out or just on to something different right now. For gaming I've been doing Civ6 of all things, so perhaps just a tonal shift.

 

It bugs me as UI, tank variety, game design, etc, are all good in Blitz right now, but I'm not feeling it.

[tankist22]

Sounds familiar. Wait, heck, I am not entitled to speak about this. May get chat ban again.

[MRIGGS2345]

Same boat as you fellas.  Lot of new players in mid-high tiers now with not even the slightest grasp of what to do.  I'm a little like tanker070 trying to get creative with some teams to win.  Can't go where you normally would and have to play very reserved.

Had a game on dead rail yesterday where our SU-122 had lots of company in his spot including a KV-1S, Tiger I, M6, T-43, and Chi-Ri.  I had to play hide and spot the whole game.

Mines had a tiger 2 and at least 2 other heavies broadside in the open trying to cap the whole game while getting shot.  

 

And the raging between these folks over who's the bigger noob is almost comical.

 

These games have been common lately and I don't know of a solution.  Probably should find a willing toon mate to make the pain a little easier.

[reluctanttheist]

Makes you wonder if WG should have some sort of MM that equalizes the stupid on each team - sort of a reverse MM where each team gets the same number of idiots 

[pilotharrison]

My winrate has just been dropping for the last week consistently, it's dropped 0.05% over the last two days. Sometimes I'm just like screw it I'll play one battle today and leave it at that. 

 

Yes, I'm a nub, but lately no matter what tier I play, I'm consistently seeing a lot worse players. It's all WG nuking everything below tier 5 so they can sell it back to us, players don't have experience and I've seen many players sub 1000 battles in tier 8, 9, even 10. I've been having battles lately where the team yolos too hard into the open, I don't, and get deleted within a minute and it's me trying to farm as much as possible on what's left.  Also, RNG hasn't been nice to me at all lately and I've been getting a lot of low rolls on alpha, excessive amounts of track broken but no damage, bad dispersion, and I've been getting at least 1 ghost shell per battle. 

 

So yeah. My WR: 

1) I'm a nub. 2) Bad teams. 3) Sub-1k battle players in tier 7-10. 4) RNG hasn't been nice to me at all lately.

If Pro Football teams had the same MM as Blitz used I would actually start watching it.

[_Crusader6_]

It’s not a MM rant, I accept the player base for what it is.   
 

I had a number of games today (12) where I died first on my team, and was still top damage on the team 
    It just shows me I was too aggressive.  
 

My last game my WZ-121 did more damage than the entire red team. 
   The game is random, and you most often need to do way more than your share to win.  

   
 

[Kiwi_Kebab]

Sometimes when I'm expecting my team to be bad, I don't get to do much because the other team ends up being far worse. 

 

The Sheridan has quickly become my new favorite for getting out of a loss ditch. The speed and alpha lets me feel in control. The feeling of having no control is what I hate.
