8.7-9.7 matchmaking now has click-bait syndrome

Falcon is basically a slower XM800t so yea its alright I guess, Olifant mk2 sucks ass, VFM5 is pretty mid, Rooikats are worse centauros and anything on a ratel is gonna suck ass.

VFM5 and Oli, I’ll give you that. But don’t be talking down the ZT3 - it is a wish.com AFT09, but still nukes everything and now has ammo crates. Really enjoying it as a second spawn for Sir2. Wish they never ruined the VFM5’s optics, though.

I do better with the Fox and Scimitar that high than any of the vehicles you used. my 9.3 lineup is the mk10 chieftain, shir 1 (khalid) and a couple rat vehicles and its just not viable when you can see 10.7 stuff.

Still remember half the matches being RU vs RU

At least it forced me to realise my favourite BRs are 6.7-8.7. I almost never play higher now

It’ll die down, the more skilled players will keep playing it while the low levels will put it down and forget about it, i have already put it to good use personally

Doof doof gun vs nice thermals and ATGM that can nuke anything in one shot - I know what I’m choosing. Anyway, this is all academic - the Sir2 will be moving up to 10.0 in no time.

Ugh, hate when you get nuke and then the round runs out before you can drop it, lol

Spoiler

I can see that, at least it has a lineup of vehicles at the same BR, even if they are: AFV worse than the 8.3 equal and SPAA with non functional missiles

With controller

Wut

No I play on KBM lol, controller is unbearable

I think you can crew the Chieftain MK10 and play 9.0, this br mostly sees 130sp which is 9.3 and the MK10 is incredibly strong, the full downtier frequency is high too but only do it after people stop spamming the Shir lol

It’s probably also due to cas dominance

I play with controller.

I keep meaning to play MK10, but Britain 8.3 is a bit addictive.

In this br when USA and China in the same team shouldn’t have too much issues with pilots of average skill, York and PGZ09 will take care of them. It’s a big problem now especially you are playing 8.7 and its full uptier, we have a total of four 9.7s that are supposed to carry the team with their superior vehicles but all four left with five deaths and only one kill lol all four 9.7 being British and not even one T-64B to offset the enemy’s 9.7s.

Another super whack matchmaking, the enemy team has:

Sabra
Shir
T-64B

We have:
???
9.7 mbt 404

No need to guess, we got steamrolled lol

the chally mk2 should be 10.0, there is 0 reason why the shir 2 should be 10.0, its worse then the mk2 in nearly everyway

the mk3 and ds are much much better then either of them and they are only 10.7

Nah. Flawed logic, either way. You need to compare Shir2 to what it faces at that BR, below that BR, and beyond. Shir2 is incredibly strong for 9.7 - it’s going up, mark my words.

IMO I have no issue with Shir being at 9.7, as long as the full downtier doesn’t put UK in the same team with RU and Israel, you can see the above scoreboard just set us up to lose, there is no 9.7 MBTs for Germany, China and French, even if the Leopard 2K still at 9.7 it still doesn’t totally outclass the current 9.7, funny thing is that the only 9.7 vehicles in my team that we can expect it to carry is the Wiesel 1A2 lmao

T72A 9.3
T64B 9.7
T72M1 9.3
Begleitpanzer 9.3
Type 16 9.7
Centauro 9.3-9.7
Amx-40 9.7

9.7 is literally perfectly fine for the shir 2, its not even the best 9.7 tank, techinally even 9.3s are better then it (begleitpanzer for example)
