If it is random matches against strangers, seems I should be closer to 50-50 on the wins. But lots of matches people just drive straight into my torps!

LOL I have no idea what you're talking about..... (I'm tired and misread the OP. I also might need to look into glasses, apparently. Sorry 'bout that.)

132 Valdez_Raptor Members 509 posts 14,125 battles Report post #8 Posted March 17, 2017 If you have an early strong idea of the game's concepts (which become clearer at tier 3 plus you are ahead of the game. I honestly don't play my lower tiers often just because I can see just how much I know than others and I prefer not to seal club. Tier 5 though really starts to test you cause of the messed up MM where you see a lot more tier 7's than you otherwise should. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
772 Wowzery Members 4,546 posts Report post #9 Posted March 17, 2017 Could be a couple of things, good teams, some real potatoes. Second, you don't have many games so its hard to say. You could do this well early on, and after 500 games be close to 50%. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
119 [KOOKS] Fastwolf66 Beta Testers 319 posts 10,692 battles Report post #10 Posted March 17, 2017 As your own stats show, your win rate decreases as you go up tier. Your stats are impressive, far in front of the average, but as you go up, you will find better players. Also, your line picked (british cruisers) is unforgiving, all or nothing. You do a great battle, or get deleted really quick on a mistake. Welcome to wows, will be nice to see you on batlle. PD: when you got a few tier VII and VIII, can try ranked battles, its a completely different game. Regards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

252 [WOLF8] MikeLWX Members 381 posts 7,737 battles Report post #12 Posted March 17, 2017 On the whole, the player base doesn't understand how the game works. Part of that is it being a free game, part of it is WG not providing much real instruction, and part... Just a truckload of stupid. Enjoy it when you ge some teammates that know their game. Try not to expect too much out of anyone else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At tier 5 it became much more difficult. My win rate for tier 5 is 52%. For tier 6 it's 50% so far, but I haven't played enough battles for it to mean much (22).

I wish more people would understand it this way and not "they must be bad because I'm better than they are."
