Stating obvious objective facts is not “provoking” to anyone with a level head on their shoulders. Only people with short fuses or who are in denial. There are baby seals at 2.0. You are clubbing them whenever you play the Pz IVE with a KD of 8. There is literally no room for negotiation.
Anyway, as for the original topic: Gaijin cannot introduce skill based matchmaking or anything like that overall, because it would make queue times skyrocket to ridiculous levels.
But I do think they can draw some sort of low BR cutoff, and below that, anyone can still click “To Battle” if they want, but you just can’t get matched with anyone more than like 30 levels difference than you or so. We can play fun low BR tanks but without unnecessarily chasing off important new players the game needs to stay healthy and for us to play against later. Also still allows veterans to grind a new nation.
Then after a brief protection zone of very low BR, when people are accustomed to the game and know what’s up, get rid of that and have it like now.
Gaijin seems to for some reason like to do broad cutoffs on TIER, not on BR, so I guess just “Tier 1” would be that “zone”

you watch the youtubers in addition to playing, so you learn both/all…
I have friends who are lower level than me and only up to rank 3 tanks for example. Of course I would like to play with them in a downtier vice by myself all the time.

My brain is shut down when I play low tier and often its because I’m testing a new vehicle I haven’t played before. Which means I perform either alright or subpar for my liking. Prime examples are the Land battleships.
Well wasn’t for seal clubbing at low tiers a lot of clan boies wouldn’t have the stats they do, it’s how they keep those high KDR numbers.

You do talk some rubbish ,were you drunk?
I am Dod_Dud, a level 100 player and I hereby confess to have committed the following:
I grinded and spaded the french naval tree from tier1. I will grind the french boats too.
I do play my low tier premiums as some generate a lot of SL. If I can win, I even spawn another non-premium low tier.
During events, I even use my low tier event premiums to get it done fast.
When I get a rank2 task, I often do it with rank2 vehicles in one mission.
And I am sure there is more.

I got there very quickly.The game refuses to give me medals for some reason but I guess everybody is different.Those who win the game are not always level 100.
If I went back to 1BR I might seal club if I was the only level 100 but I know there will be many.
I have tanks for 6 different nations, so yes.
I like to play the objective, so I often fight other high ranking players. Yesterday I played Fields Of Normandy, Battle mode I think. Each side has a capture point. I went to defend our point and sure enough someone rushes to capture our point at the start of the match. It was a lot of fun.

Yea, these is bad, but most of all lvl 100 players want to play low br, bc its boring that one F-14 ore Mig-29 come and kill u with a missile, we want to do someting more calm.
First of all, it’s a common misconception that high level players are always more skilled. Plenty of lvl 100’s reached their skill cap long ago, and still have no idea what they are doing. Others grinded all their levels in other game modes, which means they might be gods at Tank RB, but suck hard at anything related to planes.
There are also actually skilled players who play at lower BR’s, and there are multiple reasons for why they do this. Some are starting new tech trees or branches to unlock higher ranks. Some have a particular BR bracket where their favourite vehicles are, or where they think combat is most engaging. Some have introduced a friend to the game recently, and is playing together with them at their BR bracket. Others are farming SL or just straight up taking a break from higher tiers (seriously, anyone who plays 10.0+ br games for prolonged periods looses their minds. It’s absolutely mind numbing).
At last we have the actual sealclubbers, who have 2k games in their P-39N or equivalent. They exist, and there is a few of them, but it’s not a given that, even after so many games in the same vehicle, they actually know what they are doing. Some ppl get a kick out of dookie dumping on new players, and I doubt we can get rid of it. Clubbing exists in multiple BR brackets, and every time the Devs drops a new mean machine at a br way too low, we see these types flocking to it.
I’d advise to see these ppl as challenges instead of obstacles. It might sound a bit harsh, but once you learn to deal with them, you will probably have moved beyond their skill levels.
