Well cuz Japan dont have enough planes and ground attackers at BR II and BR I and majority of Japanese players are pushed to play BR V now BR IV is also somewhat playable.

They opened Berlin to low BR like a few months back.

Why though?!?
Apparently biplanes fighting over Reichstag and T-28 parked near Kroll Opera is “fun” for some

I play Japan BR 1 and won a few times when the teams were even. Lost more than I’ve won, mostly when Russia has been all BR 2 spraying their PPS-42’s and 43’s everywhere.

Skill Issue 
They relaxed the BR requisite a while back.
Not very HA, I know, but it allows more people at different levels to experience more of the maps available.
Had bad teams has Japan. Lost both timea. Glad othees having luck
Other then in BR3, with the Allies I lose the majority of the time to the Japanese. I don’t have a Japanese BR5 lineup, so when I do play with the Japanese it is either BR2 or BR3, and I have a much higher winning percentage with the Japanese then any other faction, so it would not surprise me that they would dominate the Soviets on the new maps.
Soviets got 10% hp insecurity bonuses and overbuffed small arms.
Japan got honour and… type Hei.
Type Hei is boring a bit in br5. If only Japan had a proper assault rifle, and not a naval scotti treatment joke…
(also, why did they overtiered Tokyo arsenal? I genuinely don’t understand when they lowered 50 drum tommy to br4 in the same patch?)

The sites on the TA are aweful
I have, it’s about 50-50 at br 2-3. Map is maybe the best we’ve got, equipment isn’t awful unless you have to deal with br 3 tanks. At br5 I imagine it’s disgustingly biased against Japan, except in the air.
I have almost stopped playing because of that.
There aren’t many Japanese players - but the few that do play the faction are dedicated veterans.
There are obviously veterans on all factions, and when you encounter a full squad of pros you are up for some bad times - however especially the majority of Soviet players are braindead, this is no secret.
I should play some Soviets for once, just to experience this myself, but so far, as a Germany player I have noticed more matches against Allies - which is what I hoped for, Soviet queues being matched against Japan instead is a relief.

The good German players aren’t really playing much low BR anymore, but high BR Germans are quite good, I see multiple rallies every match.

In my 6,604 total games post merge, the vast majority has been played either as Allies or Germans, and I just broke the 1,000 game mark with the Soviets a couple weeks ago. BR2 has always been my favorite level.
The first year and a half or so post merge I played entirely with the Allies, and played over 1,450 games with them before I started my German faction, so since then I have actually played more Germans. But when I first started, my allies at BR1 and 2 against the Japanese I won probably 60-70% of the time, and 40-50% against the Germans. Since then, I lose about 90% of the time to the Japanese at BR1 and 2, about 50% in BR3 and lose about 70% to the Japanese in BR5. Against the Germans as Allies it’s usually a 50/50 match at all levels/
My Germans, I used to win 80% of the games vs the Soviets in BR2 and BR5, however now against BR2 Soviets I lose probably 75% of the time, and still win probably 75% against BR5 Soviets. I don’t have a BR1 German or Soviet lineup. BR3, I am about 50/50 and that goes for both Soviets and Allies.
When I play Japanese, I only have BR2 and BR3 factions, and against actual people I win 75 or 80% of the time.

Still…
Why did Tokyo get uptiered? What for?
I don’t think ppl asked for it? (While drum tommy gets downtiered) it’s just weird.
Like devs didn’t think it through.
