What was it last evening? Did anyone suffer the same wg terror yesterday? No matter how good I shot, the result was the same. Plenty of "dream-team" 30-40% players and 300-600 avg. damage on tier 10. My stats melted significantly for me! I'm trying to believe that's because I quarell to much with support It's absolutely unacceptable! I used to 5-10 losses series followed by normal gameplay then. But such oppresing can't be occasional.

Never had such a long lose streak! Too long to be true for me, even on my other account which has more battles and 40% WR.  

[Idiian81]

Same here. Tons of those 40% Noobs on both sides. Lost 10 Games only with those Bots in my Team. Hightiers Camping, 30 Seconds after Battle starts and only 2 Tanks moved out of spawn and so on .....

 

Terrible.

Ahh yes, the campers, Once a camper always a camper (unless you want to become better). 

And worst scene when on Mines: You say push to hill and replies are: "shut up noob" "hill is useless" "lighthouse is better" The noobs decrease your WR and ruin the MM-ing!

Like I mentioned in your Mines thread, I find Euro server players rarely going hill. its usually cap and sometimes lighthouse. In contrast, Asia server players always YOLO on hill.

There was definitely something going on between 18:00 and 19:00 GMT yesterday 12.01.2021. I had a lot of shot bounce (including HE - I didn't think HE bounced), from tanks that usually pen and work well. Red teams would overrun very quickly. Happened in the first ten battles before normal service was returned.

maybe they are tweaking sub5kMM and turning it off for high tiers, whereupon suddenly the hundreds of beginners who were playing high tier in their shiny new Christmas auction premiums suddenly got pushed into the regular queue and can't figure out why their normal strategy of sitting behind the nearest bush at spawn isn't working.

 

 

I find that if the teams are really clueless, then playing supremacy will give you another path to victory, because it means that most players will have no idea what the rules for supremacy are! Just drive a light tank, cap early, wait for the count to 1,000, and don't get shot by Smasher/Anni! Got 4 wins in a row today just doing that!

Yes, blitzstars shows 40,28 WR yesterday, ~43 losses, terrible.

I found that significant losses both whilst tooning with a clan mate, and solo play, seemed to be really adversely effected by both green teams players whilst tooning, and then green team lag/lost packets whilst playing solo.

In fact my clan toon commented that during the whole day playing he had won 7 games....and that was a 65% player!

The last solo games I played, every game the green players were complaining that the game had lost packets, weren’t allowed to play due to the game, and every time there were replays from the reds totally opposite....no problems, no lag, no lost packets.....and of course the reds were winning every game.....

I even changed to my alternative persona, which historically NEVER has lost packets even when I am totally unable to play, only to find the same problems.......

One player even suggested WG were updating the game today??? Not as far as I see!

[Mjr_Leicht]

What time(s) and tiers you talking about?

I played from 9pm GMT and it was normal...

Both teams full of muppets without a Scooby what to do lots of times, some I carried, some I got carried, others I got rekt but did ok...

58% WR for Mjr_Eazy in 50 battles with only 3 (only won 1 mind!) in Pz B2 won 3 out of 5 at tier x

71% WR here in 35 battles, 9 (at 67%) in Pz B2 won 6 out of 10 at tier x

Either I was in the winning queue or even more unlikely I might be gitting gud? 
It’s just the luck of the draw really and as noted above spamming of supremacy, many of my wins were on points because of muppets not understanding the mode...

My advice, same as @erwin, turn off encounter and make sure to cap & reset red caps you will win more!

GL!

 

[net4force]

Hope you will have a 40-50 win streak soon! Good Luck!!

i had an 18 in a row win streak in Pz B2 recently but @Selthae rekt it

[Thespiritphoenix]

Stuff like this usually happens once a month. I got caught out by this around two months ago and my win rate plummeted. When this happens I usually switch to the lower tiers where there actually seem to be less muppets than there are in tier 7 and 8 not to mention virtually no broken tanks.

[Col_Foster]

Yes switching to lower tiers make for better games, took Matilda VI out and even got a seven kills game!

[Replicant_2]

One can always rely on the forum to deliver a fresh dose of misery and self pity.

I do however admire OP’s determination and dedication. To clock 50 losses in 3h is not an easy feat.assuming there would have to be some wins in between (however rare, sometimes reds just trip over their own tracks) that’s 3 min per battle including waiting, changing tanks and reviewing results.
Did you even bother to look at your teams and minimap or did you yolo straight into red, back into the garage, rinse and repeat?

[gallabru]

OP said 40-50 losses (say 43 later on) and 40% wr. That would be 72 battles in 3 hours.
I am sure I would not be able to focus (and stay calm) in these conditions.

[SorryMyPingIsBad]

@mjr_leicht Scoobie was the genious of the outfit :-)

 

Can't say yesterday was worse or better; but I only played three games.

[llo1]

@Mjr....I picked up the toon request mid afternoon, say around 14:00 and we toned until I got a work call around 15:30....

His comments were therefore regarding playing prior to this......tooning we played 14 games with a 30% wr!

My solo playing was from around 16:00, until I “gave up” around 17:00, as I simply couldn’t take it any more and resorted to tier 4! For a 78% wr (not all in the B2 as I had Med tank daily targets!)

I'm not kidding like that Just funny allies did that often. Commonly, 2 of them were dead in ~1 min. About 3 hours total playtime, I made some breaks. Changing tanks and classes didn't help much. Continued playing trying to have a good fight to quit and calm down. 

[erwin10001]

Ok, i was having a bad day in Asia server, teams were totally awful, so I kept changing tanks till I found something that worked . Today my trusty Bromwell seemed to work so I just carried on playing it. Haven't played it for sometime because I have been clubbing in a Hellcat but today it was 3 losses in row in Hellcat. The problem is the Hellcat cannot carry the way a Brom can even though the cat's gun is so much better.
