My hot take is that proper tanks with ERA should not be able to see the first vehicles with heat-fs as a stock round and an unlockable standard round later. Few things are more annoying than playing a stock olifant and encountering one of the m60s with ERA. My first ever kill with the olifant was one of these j-ing out of pity. (Before you ask, no I wasn’t shooting the same spot every time, I was actively changing where I was shooting while working around ERA that was there and by the end the shots just weren’t doing anything)
try turret ring
my olifant isn’t stock anymore so I don’t have this problem and if I was at an angle to shoot the turret ring I would have shot the turret ring
8.7 is really cool because it’s either losing to a team of americans in the t58 or getting america on your team in a full uptier against the soviets and losing. It’s uniquely awful and is still somehow more enjoyable than low tier right now
T14 → 5.0
someone explain to me… why a better Churchill VII is at a lower BR than the Churchill VII? The frontal armor isn’t as good but you can actually like, move in the T14 which makes up for it? Stabilized 75, genuinely explain to me why it’s 4.7 but the VII isn’t.
Leo 1A5 should get DM 63. This is because it would be more balanced as it has no armor, no great mobility, can be .50 cal to death, okayish gun handling. So adding a round that can pen more things and the fact that it gets constant up-tiers, the DM 63 would be a needed buff. And no it wouldn’t be game breaking in a down tier as it’s DM 33 already can pen most things.
Sure, along with a BR increase to 9.7. The 1A5s are already perfectly good and balanced 9.3 vehicles, any significant buffs they get should be paired with a BR increase.

Do you play L1A5s daily?
It’s like the new T-90M.
The Predator gets more ERA, and some add on armor pieces.
Played my C2A1 a little before the BR changes to see why they were considering moving it to 9.0 and I found a perfectly fine middle of the pack 9.3 tank.
Predator gets the exact same amount of ERA.
It gets ERA on the lower hull. Pretty sure the Rise does not.
Preadator definitely receives additional tracks and things too for armor. Not that it may matter against most shells.
Well that explains a lot. Well L1A5 can be HMG to death, the auto-cannon vehicles can pen it frontally and it’s mobility and armor aren’t as good as other tanks at it’s br. It’s basically a light tank that can’t scout and has bad mobility. And giving L1A5 a round that pens 9mm more and has ever so slightly better ballistics will only make it more reasonable to stay at 9.3 and not be Type 74(F) with worse armor and a little bit better dart.
Definitely should go up to 5.0. It’s OP at 4.7.
As you can see, identical frontal ERA placement and amount.
The Leopard 1A5 is so much better than the Type 74(E/F) lmao, but thanks for proving that your whole point is based on skill issue, saves me the work proving it.
A) Most MBTs at 9.3 have no armor
B) The 1A5 doesn’t have bad mobility to begin with
You know what you could really benefit from? Not being a stereotypical German main.

just swap the VII and the T14 in the BR lmao
T14 has reliable weakspots for enemies to hit.
the t14 has the mobility to not get exploited like the churchill. Most people complaining about the Churchill VII have either only played it on its good maps or haven’t played it at all.
Ah my mistake.
But it still gets add on armor like tracks and things of that nature that do add armor

Vehicle should be 12.7 minimum because of how its a PIA to kill hull down and the cannon spread should be more considering how much they shake so much in real life. AGS being 12.0 while the bmpt is at 11.0 with more armor and missiles is dumb.
tigers to 6.0, just all of them. 4.7 is literally an uptier every game because the soypoint tanks. and put the tiger 2’s to 7.0 for the same reason. german players ruin multiple BR brackets because the cats are sooooo popular
put the entire us 8.7 lineup to 10.0 for the exact same reason.
