Smallish issue but I would be interested in it: what is the split of lower/higher-tier tanks in different battle tiers?
E.g. if top tier is 10, how often there is 0,1,2,...,6 t9 tanks. If top tier is t9, how often there is 0,1,...,6 t8 tanks.
I am just wondering how MM handles the bottom/toptier mixing for matches.
it’s more abiut how many people play a specific tier , and that may also vary during the day, and with updates.
so there are specific time where playing for exemple tier 9, will nearly automatically place you bottom tier.
That’s a trend that has reoccurred. But also reinforced over time
there are other consideration like playing a light tank, WG will try to match you against a red light tank in symetry (how much do I hate this rule, one of the worst of the entire game). Those kind of rules places further stress on the mm, which then might be more likely to match you with a certain other related tier.
i know in a t7 amx-13-57 I’m rarely top tier. And yet if I play a tier6 I see a lot of tier7 so it’s not lacking in t7 tanks, but there are other rules to satisfy. A long time ago it was more “next 14 guys to show up are bundled into a game”. That was a lot more random and gave weird games sometimes (all TDs in one side, for exemple). I liked it. Forced you to play creatively instead of the same game every game. Anyways ...
