Hello,
Normally I put out a long explanation saying why something should or shouldn’t happen. I am going to go about this one a little different. Simply put, I am wanting the T32E1 to be moved from 7.7 to 7.3 in realistic formats. I dont think the tank is 7.7 material. I would like to have a genuine discussion of ideas. Please be civil and polite!
Maus syndrome, has a very good amount of armor that makes anything shy of HEATFS unable to pen you. But your limited by slow reloads and fighting newer tanks because of your armor and in a downtier only heat slingers have a good chance of killing you.
I like the T32 but the uptiers can be absolutely brutal so i feel where you’re coming from. Honestly just pull it in downtiers if you can, or on maps where they favor your playstyle, stick with your team if you can and hope for the best.
Also stock AP is dreadful, id love to delete that shell if possible from the stock grind.
It fixes the sole only real issue with the T32 so it can’t share a BR, and I don’t think the T32 is balanced at 7.0
I don’t struggle with the T32 or T32E1 personally i have a 2.3 K/D in the T32 and a 2.98 K/D in the T32E1. The issue of 8.3 and 8.7 games really limit it though. The Maus at least gets a big gun to oneshot most tanks the T32E1 doesn’t. I know may stats indicate that its not a problem but the BR its at sucks. The tank is relegated to a support play style due to the gun. My success comes from knowing when to push and when to hold. The tank unfortunately can be taken out easily in most situations. I think 7.3 would be OK to place it at. Its armor protection rivals that of the IS-3 but with a weaker gun, but a slightly fast reload.
The biggest problem isn’t the tank br itself, it’s the fact that 8.7 sees a LOT more downtiers than any other bracket past 6.7 so 7.7 end up in a full uptier like 90% of the time if not 95%.
As always, everything comes down to decompression, by moving most ancient 7.3-7.7 to 8.0 and up they just compressed the ever living of anything down of 9.0 and the same problem applied between 8.7 and 9.7 where you see composite armor, lrf, thermals and way better darts appear vs those 8.7.
The game needs at least doubles the br’s and instead of a +1-1 spread in matches I think .7 should be the max, we have the player count to make it work and not lenghten the queue times and since they’re not keen on adding new game-modes the least they could do is unclog the br’s a bit.
