Hey, I was just wondering which nation is the best in terms of top tier lineups.

the best nation in the game is whatever you can put up with playing and enjoy the most

If you’ve got top-tier experience, here’s the honest run-down before you spend any money:

🇺🇸 USA – M1A1 AIM / Clickbait
Fun to play, solid mobility, good gun handling, and decent thermals. But armor’s not reliable at all in uptiers; you’ll eat 3BM60s or DM53s like nothing. It’s very “comfort playstyle,” but don’t expect to tank hits. Wait for a sale if you go for it.

🇩🇪 Germany – Leopard 2A4M CAN
Still one of the best all-around premium MBTs. Great gun, mobility, and thermals; classic German consistency. Just remember, no armor, so positioning and awareness are key. It’s perfect for grinding but not forgiving.

🇷🇺 USSR – T-80UE-1 / 2S38 combo
T-80UE-1 slaps. Fast, great reload, and that armor can troll a bit. But if you buy it, pair it with the 2S38 it’s one of the best light vehicles in the game right now. Together they cover each other’s weaknesses.

🇬🇧 Britain – Challenger 2 OES / DS
Solid if you love sniping and turret armor, but it’s slow and painful on maps that need repositioning. Gun handling and accuracy are great, but you’ll suffer if you try to brawl.

🇯🇵 Japan – Type 90B (Fuji)
Basically a glass cannon. Excellent reload and gun performance, but paper armor and crew spacing means you die fast if you get spotted first. Still, it’s one of the smoothest MBTs to play mechanically.

🇨🇳 China – ZTZ96A/P
Surprisingly good lineup but a bit underwhelming for premiums. The 96A is solid if you know positioning. Just don’t expect Western-level mobility.

🇮🇹 Italy – Ariete AMV / Centauro RGO
Ariete looks cool but plays awful no armor, reload mid, mobility meh. The Centauro RGO is actually better if you like fast flanking and ATGM flexibility.

🇫🇷 France – Leclerc SXXI / 2A4 (OTCo)
Leclerc is fun if you like aggressive playstyles. Great reload, thermals, and mobility; armor is unreliable though. Feels like a Leopard with caffeine.

🇸🇪 Sweden – CV90105 / “Christian”
CV90105 is an absolute menace when played right great firepower, mobility, and scouting options. But if you die once, that’s probably it for your game.

🇮🇱 Israel – Merkava Mk.4M (Ra’am Sagol)
Underrated as hell. The armor kinda sucks, reload is fast, and it’s got great optics. Feels slow compared to Leopards, but it lives. Fantastic if you want something lethal.

💡 General advice:

  • Wait for a sale. Don’t buy premiums at full price, ever. You’ll save 30–50% and it’s 100% worth it.
  • Beware the “one-death leavers.” Top tier can be brutal; half the lobby leaves after dying once. Matches can end in 5 minutes flat. If you’re solo queuing, it gets frustrating fast.
  • Mix your lineup. Always bring at least one backup or light dying once and leaving kills your SL efficiency.

If you’re looking for the most efficient grind setup, Germany, Russia, or Israel are your best bets right now.
