because challenger mk 2 is very good amirite?
yes it is.
infact i have a 7.6 kd with it.
k.d is not a metric to judge the perfomance of a vehicle lol.
it is one of the metrics
a very small irrelevant metric, its a measure of skill, not vehicle perfomance
The great armour can only help you so much…
The drivers port / LFP aren’t exactly the easiest to hit, but when you’re reloading, they can take their sweet time to kill you.
That’s why being mobile and relying on physical cover (whether it be a hill or building) is generally more Meta in a lot of cases.
And the fact that the Shir 2 has good turret armour, great reverse speed, reload, and gun depression makes it all the better.
Why is 2S6 still 10.7?? Especially when compared to other spaa around it that also don’t have amazing guns…
it is actually. but one guys K/D isn’t all there is to it. overall K/D id say is more valuable than winrate to see how good a vehicle is. some nations and vehicles get screwed over by the teams they have to carry giving a good K/D but awful winrate.
Gaijin cares more for winrate for now I should add. which is stupid
The tkx(p) has very dense armor in the front in small spots while the type 90 has good coverage but less thickness. The only one that can tank dm33 to the armored spots consistently are the tkx(p), which has very little coverage. Both of these tanks have like 30-40 mm of protection in any other place. The pt16 is 30-40 mm all around, so I dont see why a few armored spots makes it a br increase of 1. I understand the 0.7 that its currently at, but 11.7 is a whole other environment.
neither k.d nor winrate tell you anything about a vehicle’s perfomance
Because it’s mid at best ?
Mode: Air Realistic Battles
Aircraft: Phantom Fgr2
Change: 12.0 → 11.7
Reasoning: skyflashes are mediocre (at best) missiles not really able to keep up with other missiles, especially when you get uptiered and have to face su 27s, su 33s and mig 29s (sometimes even f15s and f14s). Plane is quite possibly one of the worst manoeuvring planes at that br and, acceleration wise it’s fast but, at speed everyone (including other F4 phantoms) will catch up to you. With the recent hornets sting update, it’s caused a lot of f18s to spam loads of aim 7Ps. Whilst a lot of people with that plane are just level 5s, if you face a competent person in that plane, you’re screwed
here some global metrics for you to judge.
are you going to say that you cannot judge anything about a vehicle from its stats?
If a vehicle sucks ass then players wont do good with it for the most part (I’m of course not meaning the Abrams and vehicles in a similar situation)
if the overall performance of teams with vehicles is good then its a decent vehicle
brit mains being punished for being better players moment
i wonder why the tech tree vehicle for the most popular nation in the game has worse stats than an event vehicle for BRITAIN.
Stats arent a good balancing metric.
its overperforming very much even when comparing to other british vehicles.
because its an event vehicle, and its also actually good, id say its not much better than olifant at 9.3(should be 9.7)
so they should just put it at 2.7br just because 1 guy thinks it bad?
