    At what stage does it become player skill? Every French tank can easily be killed by competitors. The APHE autoloaders require flanking, unlike the obj at 8.0 that can frontally pen most stuff at the BR.

      Because of this usually good players decide to stick with france. And as result because only good players play France, gaijin sees the stats and could decide to raise the br.
      The Char 25t is also victim of this. Another french vehicle that was at 7.3 and is now at 8.0. 8.0 is notorious for pretty much being only full uptiers, and the char 25t ends up being matched up against fully stabilized vehicles.

      at 8.0 it is still far more modern than the t54 series, the t54-1 (in game listed as the t54 1947) completed its trials in 1945 and entered serial production in 1947 and 1949. the t55 was developed in 1953 and entered production in 1955 and it sits a 8.7 at the same BR as the TAM and other tanks from the 70/80s like the Cheiftain.

    This thing and the RCV have a similar history regarding balancing. Originally 7.3 non-stabilized vehicle with no thermals or lrf and it keeps going up in BR all the way to 8.0/9.0. Frontal lethality is limited, requiring flanking and map knowledge to reliably do well. As the vehicle BR gets raised, less and less people play it leaving only the most confident players taking the vehicle out which continues to inflate player stats driving it up even more.

    Whenever Spook plays anything that's supposed to be bad or over-tiered: Nobody sees him, or hears him. Everyone advances without a care in the world, pushes corners without checking. No one notices when teammates die right next to them. Every single tank, except those it's literally incapable of killing, immediately exposes their side, rear, or weak spot. Most long-range shots he takes hit not only dead on, but in a weak spot he wasn't even aiming for.
    I'm so fucking tired of having the most ridiculously bad, borderline supernatural bad luck in War Thunder for fucking YEARS now, then I see people get battles like this, expecting to do badly, and ending up doing better than I can do in my best, luckiest battles. It's torture, and I just want it to end.

    50t90 is basically the same except its bigger and a little bit more mobile (char25t top speed being better isnt better overall mobility). But the worst part about this is that you almost everytime get uptiered to 9.0. Its still playable but you have to flank and camp a lot so its not as fun as it was before.

    Hey Spook, Just realized that I managed to sneak into one of your games. Same name, the 4th battle shown in the video, 11:18, is when I first noticed my name! I was in the Obj 685 and the T55-AMD1. I remember this battle because towards the end, my team just kept feeding you kills while we were pushing the cap... but at least I killed you at the end to make up for it. GG, was a fun battle... wished I saved the replay.

    When you are tilted, your sights are also a bit to the side, so you have to put the "phantom line" on the target coming from the middle, not the vertical line that's already there.
    Phantom line is a line that is always vertical to the world and not to the sights. You have to imagine it there. You have to draw a line downward that's exactly the same amount of degrees away from the shown line as the amount of degrees your vehicle/sight is tilted.
