What hapenned to "top tier" ground?

I got my first top-tier jet and mbt in the form of the Gripen EBS HU and muh leopard2A7HU.
The hype was real, I managed to figure out how to defend against fox 3’s , got muh AGM-65G’s, rushed back to GRB to start grinding out the mods for the Leopard and holly crap the absolute state of 12.7 “top tier” ground.

I shouldn’t even call it top tier as people play worse than at the premium blackhole 10.3 ! I just had a match with 2 players not even spawning and 4 leaving after one death. The problem is that this is not an exception but how the majority of the games go !

Looking back at the huge amount of RP i grinded out for this experience…i cant say it was worth it at all.

Not to mention at 12.7 people should have more than one tank, right ? Yet i see sherman 76 as a backup someone spawned ? wtf?

Was it always this bad, or is it just EU servers, or do the 11.3 premiums somehow affect 12.7 this bad? What happened?

It was always this bad. I can recall countless of people leaving games after losing end of the line vehicle. It is an ensless circle: top tier lures more people obsessed with grind → they contribute nothing to their team → rational players move to the lower tiers → even worse performence on top tier and so on.

Welcome to the land of Click-Bait. I would give my right arm to be able to exclude nations that I want to get teamed up with. US would always be vs me…

Top tier premiums and squadron vehicles happened, and most the time these people squad with a friend in a 2.3 tank and gaijin allows this to happen somehow.

Last week a guy came in with a leopard 2pl and had 2 squad mates running reserve tanks and they ended up costing us the win and the rp bonus that comes with it.
