Lunbar's battle was really something I have never seen in this game. I contributed effectively nothing. As I sat and watched I thougt he was dead meat. A Centurion I, LOL. TOTAL JUNK! His shots where 150 avg. dmg. rolls, LOL. Against far superior FULL hp higher Teir tanks. We where on TS, I spoke no words. It was like in baseball when a pitcher is throwing a perfect game. You just let him sit at the end of the bench.
You can read the account. It is as occurred. I just wanted to add this.
1. Any tank from any Teir can win. The Art of War, great book. "Know yourself, know your enemy, win every time". If you follow this half the threads on this Forum would be gone.
2. Never accept Defeat. Never quit and never Surrender.
3. What makes this game great it to be part of something we all search for. That one moment that comes when you believe that all the time you spend in the game comes together to have a win like Lunbar. It was the "Rudy" moment.
4. Find a way to record your matches. His battle may have been one of the Greatest to ever been played on Blitz. Gone forever. It is sad.
So when you want to start a thread about bad MM. Ask yourself this.
Do I know myself, my tank? Do I know my enemy, there tank?
When your the last tank in the match remember Lunbar54, start chanting "Rudy......Rudy.......Rudy".
Because next time it could be you.
Rocket, this was an amazing post. Thank you. You were able to summarize what makes this game great, inspire others and offer accolades to your very deserving toonmate. I wish I could give you all my +1s for the week. I really love this game and community and laugh if others think it is just a stupid game. Is chess? Why do many people hold grandmasters in high regard when this game is not only as challenging--if not more--it also requires keen dexterity as well as a keen mind. Your mention of Rudy was great. Please see the movie (if you have not already) Whiplash. Being great at anything in this life is rare, it matters not what it is...in the end we all die...just strive to be great at anything and you will be unique among most people on this planet. I can not wait until Replays arrive. The way you both described this match makes me long to view it...but the descriptions from the both of you is sublime.

Lunber, what you did in your Centurion......I will use it as an example for my statement: Skills beats tanks, in WOT.
Mostly true, but show me one of these with a Comet and 3 tier IXs on the opposing team (bonus points if one is a T-54) then I'll completely believe it.
