Funny b/c tonight I played, I think 4 matches: 2 as the Americans and 2 on Russians (both BR2) and won 1 time. Had “gold” players quitting and the whole bit.
Germans pulled out wins on BOTH games vs. the Russians and the Japanese and Americans split the other two I played tonight. (In two of the wins for the Japs/Germans, they had tanks/AT sitting in the gray zone which is how they pulled out wins despite going to the last defense spot.)
Here’s an example:
And, yes, the dude at the top of the German rankings is a gray zone tank dude. Wooo. Lots of skill involved there. If I were to guess at his thinking, it was “no way are we going to lose, so I’ll just hang in the gray zone and get a win” - you can see all the players who quit on the other side. It’s not like the Russians have any tanks that can remotely compete in BR2.
In any case, this crap about the Germans never winning…or the Japanese never winning - is B.S.
Again, this is North American server in Eastern Standard Time - Bottom tier games. And yes, every person’s experience is anecdotal and no real proof of anything. But, just thought I’d toss up some proof that it’s not all one directional.
