Are german tanks nerfed?

Cant help noticing that lately when I play the top tier the german sabot round with 650mm of pen has major problems to damage/destroy enemies. Many times all I get is a hit when shot at the weakspots. May not be the best player out there but not that bad. Biggest issues are the russian and USA tanks, it has become so bad that I dont engage these if I dont have to if Im alone without backup

This problem didnt exist before, it started right efter CLICK BAIT was on sale. After that seems like all the tanks can pen my Leopards (A27 and PSO) from the front. Another thing when you check the analytics in game nothing can pen the A27 or PSO at close range but increase the distance, suddenly the whole front is a weakpoint

The PUMA VJFT could take a lot of hits when the side was exposed but now it only takes 1 sabot round and its game over. The ERA and APS does nothing for this tank

I dont want to sound rude but that sounds like a you issue. The german sabot is one of the most destructive rounds in the game and while some russian tanks have iffy damage models on the autoloaders you should have 0 issue killing US tanks.
If your opponent knows where to shoot pretty much every tank is pennable frontally not only Leos.

yeah just ignore that thing, its broken, useless, defenseless and teethless forever now and i have 0 hope that it will get better

I am so sorry but

It kinda is the issue with how you are playing.
There is nothing wrong with tanks, and you will definitely improve with time
