this is something that people have been talking about for at least 6+ years, just do +1/-1 but for some reason they never do it. they have never even tried it from what i can remember and ive been playing off and on since 2013.
WoT Blitz has +/-1 match-making 7vs7, however over the years they added OP premiums that were later out classed by new premiums also making many of the strong tech tree tanks out classed or making them collector tanks with only the ability to use the mediocre guns, or theres a premium version of the tech tree tank thats better, its basically battle of the premiums over there. Battle pass grinds for the new premium or 2 every month and all. I quit a couple years ago, and occasionally come back to see how things are and get the free stuff. Its cool for the first day or two, then match-making starts feeding you to the wolves.
Blitz's matchmaker is also +-2, those battles are just very rare (You can get a +-2 easier if you play in a platoon with 1 tier differience when you notice the matchmaker is in an uptiery mood) Also it goes trough giving easy games to hard ones and back around.
It's really both funny and sad that in their "old vs new MM" graph showing tier 8s, their solution to "too many +2 games" ended up being "alright, +0/-0 it is then" Even their own automatic systems would rather lower the tier spread instead of generating more +2/-2 games while changing if you're top/bottom tier. And they don't get the hint. The middle ground of +1/-1 solves this issue and ends up giving more gameplay variety than the "automated +0/-0" they end up with, and that's one of the main arguments in favor of +2/-2 lol
They couldn't even get the graphics right on their matchmaking example (flipped IX to XI, mixed up the teams). This is just representative of the quality control and effort they put in.
Its crazy how there's so many player stats and they use NONE of them for the matchmaker, no matter how well they balance the tanks per battle it will always be unbalanced games because have high skill 10+k rating players with 70k battles all purple equipment spamming gold rounds v 2-4k rating 3k battles played normal equipment and little gold rounds both in say a borrasque who is going to come better off MOST of the time lol
34:34 that's a lie. if they really did do that they would discovered that +1 -1 mm would easily solve most if not all of the problems that we have now.
2/3 or More of a Team all One Class, Typically heavies and TD's these Days, is NOT Good MM... ESPECIALLY TD's, No One wants to Move and be the First Guy to Take the Hits from the Guys that can't be Seen.. Mediums can't Scout anymore when you get No Lights because the Players haven't the Skills for it anymore... The MM needs a Good Going Over again, Mostly for Team Balance in Classes, but Dropping Back to +/-1 wouldn't Hurt, even if only Temporarily while they WORK on the MM... You're never gonna get Skill Based MM, WG's already said as Much, and WG needs to Stop with Tanks like the BZ176, that are Classed One Tier and have Stats that'll let them Fill In as a Higher Tier... Just a Few Thoughts I've had over the years, but also, giving the Players a Coop Mode for those that need a Break from the MM, or just want to Play to have a Good Time and Relax wouldn't Hurt either... Ships has one and it doesn't Hurt anything, they just Limit the Rewards and XP in the Mode to something Less than is Earned in Pub's...
still this all fails because you get team one wich are all attackers against all not attacking, not campers but lets say somehow safe play and then you get rushed by 3-4 speed tanks and carryed out by some tds, meds etc! its 15:0 or 13:2 battles like 3-4 min and thats todays experience at EU servers. You get alot unicums in battles wich go to drown or they kill all and just to say, they are mostly just as*holes, insulting in chat other players or pushing and blocking so you get dead or however fuckted up by them. "Just send replay" Its a lot of sending you know....

Like You said, +1/-1 makes MOST problems disappear. Thanks again!

I see more 4/5/6 games at tier VIII than I do when playing tier X

tier 6 vs tier 8...the 8's are so much better with all of the thing's you can put on them [CVS] and the upgrade's it is close to hopeless.

the one dislike is wargaming
