Let’s talk about matchmaking and the Soviet bias nobody wants to admit

So here we are again. Match after match, I see one pattern: Soviet teams dominating, even when played poorly. Why? Because matchmaking favors them, not by skill, not by tactics, but by sheer placement, repair cost, and BR stacking.

Meanwhile, Germany, USA, even Britain – actual nations with modern war doctrines – are thrown in unbalanced games just to prop up the myth of the unbeatable Soviet steel.

The question is: why are we still pretending?

We all know that in modern military history, T-72s, T-80s, and even T-90s have failed hard when compared to Western MBTs. There’s no shame in that – every nation has its strengths and weaknesses. But Gaijin seems obsessed with preserving the illusion of Soviet superiority.

I challenge the devs and the community to bring your beloved Soviet toys back down to Earth and balance the game based on real performance data, not Cold War propaganda.

If truth hurts, report this post.
If you can handle facts, maybe ask:
Why do we keep nerfing everything that makes Western MBTs powerful just to keep Soviet vehicles “competitive”?

Face the facts.
Face history.
Balance the game.
