Bare in mind, that the eft simply has much better performance. Gaijin yet didnt nerf their energy retention like they did with gripen(it is overperforming as of current) and better(nearly the best) ARHs, unlike the overnerfed R-77.
Going back to the topic, the issues for such a winrate are:
-RU is one of the big three, so naturally, winrates will be lower.
-premium one death leavers(there were discounts for USSR premiums on the 23-rd of february).
-SPAA doesnt matter that much(even the pantsir), since CAS capabilities currently exceed the performance of SAM missiles(just climb up high, and missiles from below will struggle to get you).
-the current actual SPAA in GRB are other jets.
While other countries have jets that can both do well in CAS and anti-air, RU right now is basically stuck between a fighter with meh CAS capabilities and a strike jet with meh ant-air capabilities.
Should fix that when SU-30SM goes to live.
-Said other countries have aim-120, while other missiles are plagued with with issues, which gaijin failed to fix so far(mainly the R-77 family of missiles, pythons and MICA-EM).
Gaijin made modules for autoloaders, while not balancing this change with nerfs for non-autoloader tanks.
Now they decided to balance it by fixing the issue with Nato mbt’s crew compartments eating apfsds without damage.
Bvm never was untouchable what are you talking about?
Its like t-72 with era strapped on it.
With current jets and spaa, russia has the best a2g and spaa for grb.
Even with nerfed parts, unrealistic ammunition, leopard will stomp every tseries.
Its not gaijins fault that leopard is the better tank, they make up with other stuff that gaijin was so generous to add.
That’s because the Data project is based on thunderskill, which can only use data of players that have clicked on the ‘allow my data to be used’ and because thunderskill has had a wipe. Thus the data project and thunderskill are better representations of the more experienced and the more involved player base that cares more about stats (as you need to visit the website to allow your data to be used). An example of someone showing how inaccurate thunderskill and the WTDP are: Data Analysis #2: What are the real win rates by BR, and how good is Thunderskill really?
They do not use the same dataset. Statshark is based on replays iirc. And statshark thus is a better (but also not time-dependent) representation of the average player base.
Last spawn vehicle - likely you keep spawning it when the odds are your teams done for, this happens when people often have a “lineup” where they are dedicated to using X vehicle, then Y, then Z.
First spawn? Do you leave battles after being destroyed once a lot? Again, this leads to a lot of loss ratio because it causes a chain reaction in the team to all do it and then lose.
I loll’ed at calling the Brimstone good though. Its good in a niche situation when the enemy SAM systems got too used to point and click adventuring.
I don’t really play RU much, but whilst i’ve been grinding Italy 10.7/11.0 lately, I have noticed that the RU teams at this BR are just… something else man.
I check the scoreboard two minutes into the match, and it’s just a bunch of 2S38 / T72AV / T80UD who died once and went back to hangar.
Getting on RU team at 10.0-11.0 feels like being on US team at 11.3-12.0 lol.
1- There were no Leopard 2A7s, the main counterparts to it apart from the Strv 122s, since they are the only tanks with equivalent armor while having other advantages.
2- Autoloader modules weren’t modelled, so their firepower could never ever be interrupted.
3- Most importantly; a bug prevented T-80’s ammo to detonate when being hit. It still happens occasionally, but, back then, it was the absolute majority of the times.
4- Most NATO tanks didn’t have the reload speed advantage they do now (Abrams, Leclerc, Ariete, Merkava…)
So… yeah. T-80BVM used to be WAY better than it is now. Now, it’s asymmetrically roughly equivalent to the Abrams; not great, not terrible. But, 2 years ago, it was simply the best tank in the game along with the 122s (only true counters it had back then).
I would like to know more about how Statshark is getting all-player data, but their presentation is really impressive. Answers a LOT of questions about the state of the game if you dig in.
Why are you bringing up vehicles in a team skill topic?
Either way the skilled players clearly moved to other tech trees again.
This happened when they moved from Japan and USA to Soviets, and from Soviets to Swedes, and so on.
Not only this but you’re using an anecdote as well.
Weakest of the OP missiles is still OP regardless, and they’re getting stronger next major now that you can lock the ground from 30km instead of 20km for better preparation.
It’s definitely worth taking into account, that back then, 122’s were nowhere near as common as BVM’s. Sweden was still the new nation on the block.
Both 122 & BVM were monsters in that era on an individual level, But if you’re an Abrams, Chally, Ariete, Leclerc etc player, The one or two 122’s you encounter each game, are nowhere near as influential in their strength as the almost full side of BVM’s you come up against every match.
Yes, and that’s why ever since and to this day I continue to ask for counterparts to these and disappointed that it’s been more than a year since we last for a Rank VIII MBT.
I don’t know how’s that relevant to the topic of BVM being the best/untouchable vehicle in the game ?
You should look at vehicles themselves, not at the popularity of the nations they’re in.
You are probably taking things a bit too, uh… literal?
By “untouchable” we are talking about “drastically superior to all or most of its counterparts”, not “absolutely literally untouchable” xD
Besides, it wouldn’t be contradictory even on a literal sense. The only vehicle that can reliably counter an “untouchable” one is another “untouchable” vehicle.
No, but it makes 12x T-80BVMs better than 2x Strv 122s.
Not really, im not a new player. You don’t need 2a7 or 2a6 for that matter. Abrams loader buff is unfair still to this day. Leos and m1s using the same gun but loader must be better lol.
