I don’t know if this a ridiculous ask, but I believe it would drastically help reduce the issue of BR DEcompression and also help 11.0 air to be beneficial as CAS.
This would drastically improve the BR decompression issues by being able to spread out the skill and tanks sitting around 9.7-11.3 br.
So let’s say this would happen, you’d have a large gap in some ranks but in order to have a level playing field it may be necessary. Heres what I mean;
Take 10.3 russia for example, they have A LOT of premiums & tanks in that BR between 9.7 and 11.3, with an average armor value being around 500mm thick (era) and average round doing 450-550mm of penetration, yet for other countries they have half the amount of tanks and struggle killing ERA heavy tanks.
This would also help with uptiers from 9.7 to 10.7 to be reduced, and the problem is also that 11.3 being downtiered to 10.7 because of how active 10.7 is with the premium spam I play 9.7 with my brother a lot and have dropped 8 nukes in it, however I go up against leopards & a lot of t series russian tanks that are extremely annoying to pen, unless I get a perfect flank. No reason should I be in the MBT-70 facing t80uds.
I personally believe this would be a good idea because if you have let’s say a 11.3 air that has maybe two AGMs and normal bombs, why would they be going up against modern SPAA like the buk? I’m very anti cas but I don’t think that’s addressed enough as to how unbalanced that is.
Another important thing to mention is the difference between 11.3 aircraft vs 12.3-12.7 modern SPAA systems. Most aircraft aside from 14.3 and 14.7 lack modern warning systems of missiles being launched - basically my point is anything above 11.3 in air you’re GOING to be up against modern spaa systems regardless - which makes being cas pointless unless you have a brimstone or khs.
