Shoot a T80 in the turret ring, Non pen. Abrams gets hit in turret ring, dead.
Shoot the t90 in the side, armor negates it, shoot Abrams in the side, dead
Shoot the Leo on the side of turret, non pen, shot the Abrams side turret dead
shoot t72 in turret ring, non pen Abram, again dead.
Sneeze on the Abrams dead.
no matter what the Abrams is a walking weakpoint. Even with a round that can pen 627mm of pen you cant pen most things. Hell i shot a barrel of a T series tank and it just bounced. I guess i’ll just stop playing US and just play Germany or Soviet tree

I mean… didnt game just indicates that for few years?
All top tier MBTs are easily killed from any aspect with any dart from like 9.0 and up, its not like WW2 or cold war BRs where tanks are immune to shells in many cases. You’ll end up spending money on a leopard or T series to find out that you die just as often as you do in your abrams.
Do play Russia though, and get a feel for what terrible reverse and gun depression means for gameplay.

Top tier is frustrating period, return to monke, play early Cold War.

Because everyone can easily pen and kill everyone and LRF means that as long as someone has LoS on you they are going to be deadly accurate, positioning matters a whole lot more, if you just hold W and don’t know how to play a map you are going to be immensely frustrated.
You need to know the positions on maps that have good sightlines and hard cover to hide behind, and ideally spots to move to close to that position if the sightline is no longer being traveled because your team has space.
Map knowledge is paramount at like 9.0+, most players probably don’t even think about the game in that way. If I get into a map where I don’t have a game plan for the spawn I’m playing I have an absolute awful time compared to ones that I do.
I just die to ULQ players that can see through entire forests.

Scouting is a huge problem, especially with drones, most matches at top tier everyone basically has walls hacks all match sometimes.
Also you don’t need to use ULQ, just turn shadows down to the lowest setting and grass off, rest you can crank up to max.
I play 11.7 and it’s not that bad, especially after the br change of su30 and rafale etc.
The major downside is the teammates being less competitive, resulting in a very low win rate
But overall its quite enjoyable given the fact that you have 5 sec reload with m829a2.
I’d say considering yourself as an ariete instead of strv122 and play less aggressively is very helpful.
In the new major update M829 got quite a nerf but M829A1 and A2 got slightly buffed
