Well even if one nation is super broken, there are 100% games when they are getting destroyed, right?
In the end, the difference stays in the players skill level…
More like new vehicles attracts veteran players so wr’s and k/d ratios get affected.
For instance T90M Arena offers little to nothing compare to original version so its natural people went with Abrams family, especially after Anti-Era feature that was added to M829A3 and APS system alongside with reworked armor.
That argument kind of shows cracks when you realize that the SEPv3 and trophy don’t offer much more over the SEPv1/SEPv2 than the T-90M arena offers over the T-90M.
Only real thing is the volumetric for now. Besides that the M1A2 trophy is to the normal SEPv2 what the T-90M arena is to the normal T-90M.

Seems you forgot that turret ring buff alongside with Anti-Era features are the main selling point with Abrams on this uptade.
Not to mention Trophy version bein lighter than V2 while having active protection system and all other good features of Abrams which is the main reason why people switched to USA after the patch.
T90M Arena also offers APS system but ın return it looses rear storage section which can be considered downgrade for some people, with Abrams you only get nothing but upgrade.
So yeah it doesn’t crack by any means.
The turret ring buff is the volumetric I mentioned. Anti-ERA feature is available on all Abrams, including the already existing SEPv1 and SEPv2. Yet their K/D and K/D didn’t shoot up significantly.
???
SEPv2 = 64.3t
trophy = 66.5t
SEPv3 = 66.8t
All weights without TUSK II equiped. TUSK II adds 3t so anyone who wants to know the weight of these tanks with it equiped can do the math.
An inconsistent APS (trophy) as a tradeoff for higher weight, loss of LWS and only 12x smoke grenades instead of 30x (which the base SEPv2 get but the trophy doesn’t).

Its normal considering they have been played much more than new additions so expecting signifcant spike is foolish, you know better than this.
Yeah i considered with TUSK2 kit cause regular one removes side panels which is pretty useful against autocannons, so if you want to get shredded by autocannons more easily without TUSK kit be my guest.
And? its not like LWS and extra smokes are something special to V2, those are universal mods that can be added to any M1A2 SEP models actually, gaijin choose not to add it.
Also having inconsistent APS is better than not having in the first place.
Abrams was always better tank and those upgrades made them even better, meanwhile T90M gained something while loose another one.
I seriously don’t understand your game here tbh.
True, except until Gaijin actually adds them to the other SEPs they are still special to the SEPv2.
It really depends. I very much prefer the SEPv3 over the M1A2 trophy personally, hell as soon as all the Abrams get he volumetric models the SEPv1 also has a shot for the title of best 12.7 Abrams again.
Notice something?

All of that from only one kill on ground…
I wish it was that easy to farm sp. I had a few assists, just enough to spawn the lmur slinger
More importantly the 90m Arena while already being subpar vs lots of other top tier tanks loses the side era bags making it substantially weaker in tank vs tank combat. you trade some safety vs air targets with being more vulnerable from the ground (except for spikes and other atgms…well mainly spikes at top tier).
Still nice having a third proper top tier tank as russia, if you dont count the t72B3a which is like an even worse version of the t90m, but except for the t80bvm theres no russian top tier tank that comes even close to most other nations mobility. Not in early game speed to reach power position and even worse in general mobility to switch positions or retreat. They are all hold w one trick ponys and if you dont use smokes and hss excessively when in trouble its really hard to defend map control vs highly mobile tanks of which quite a lot also have better reload speeds. if initial w push fails and enemy teams spread out and work together theres most of the times not a lot u can do since they can work from way more positions all over the map and can get there quicker. (except for t80bvm, but then again if you get to hull down sniping positions in the bvm u cant really use most of them due to gun depression and your turret armor being so bad that u will get oneshot through the top of its turret)
Similar to this:
16 players alive -vs- 0 alive (Last remaining player was shot down shortly after the screenshot).
The enemy team didn’t even one-death-leave either.

these are bots ?
Meanwhile, I’m getting absolute troglodytes for teammates when I’m playing my M1A2 Trophy-HV.
I’m on a barely positive winrate (54%) with the thing despite global winrates indicating a 62% winrate.
I’m getting blocked and pit-maneuvered in spawn by hordes of Click-Bait, Anime M1A1 HC’s, Al-Khalids, Type 90 ‘Fuji’ 's and other premium slop with players that don’t reach much higher than level 20 accounts.
Seriously, here’s a few screen grabs from various timestamps in my recording, they’ll sit in the exact same spot at the back of the map for 9 full minutes not doing anything:
Sorry, but just had to vent about these teams for a bit.

Looks like not playing top tier against russians.
And then they go to forums and create threads about m829a4, f22 and clickbait armor

Yeah dude same. Its because good players are running the new brams in teams and smashing its kd up.
The thing is, the trophy is the actual better tank.
The Sepv3 is slower. I die just the same in it as any other brams minus occasionally bouncing a cheek shot. Also, the breach protection map looks smaller - but shots pen outside that area as if it were any other brams just the same.
So idk. Doesn’t feel like it’s all that much better, and I’ve got a decent kd in most the brams.
That is always the annoying part of the update. First the good players grind it and do well in it, but then the absolute garbage waste of server space players hear about it and want to grind it too.
(They think it’ll compensate for their skill issue)
