I just grabbed a game for schniztels and giggles on my secondary account which is in silver 3, running a 4 bot hangar with stock level silver bots and weapons. The very first game I get matched against this guy getting 840k damage, quadruple the amount of #2 red, using only his Heachi with Mk2 tarans:  I know this has been stated and re-stated to death but the rate of attrition among new entry level players must be sky high when they get destroyed by such blatant tankers as this. I remember back in my beginner days (june last year) the tankers were there too, only they were running 12/12/12 Tarancilots. I still remember how my RDB griffin couldn't even remove half their ancile, let alone damage the bot underneath. But I perservered. I wonder how many new players do the same now when the difference is even more laughable in the form of Dash bots and Mk2 weaponry? How sad. |

With over 15,300 wins, this has to be his Smurf hangar. And look! Surprise, surprise. A member of Suicide Squad.

I just dont get it. How can playing this way be any fun? He cant be touched and he wipes out every player on the field. there is no challenge to this. It is a sickness, a mental disturbance. they need therapy or something. wanna bet he used a loader to get his hanger like that?

OP, not enough users for sure!
Tankers are not the root cause for the haemorrhaging. A broken system is but ultimately P2W is the root cause. Make no mistake about that. You cannot have a fair go in a heavily P2W environment. Smirnov's plan to use the MM to get rid of the effects of P2W has failed miserably. Even logically the concept was flawed. I am not even sure if he believes what he said and if he stated that just to boost his credentials for the next job.
Your silver 3 account should already be matched with high golds/ low diamonds and when you reach Silver 1 you will get experts. Without tankers (not only the super tankers) you would be fighting against Experts with your S3 account already. Who cares if the other guy has a haechi or 10/11 griffin or ancilot. Outcome is the same.
In my B2 account i regularly see highly levelled dashbots (not even tankers). When that account was L5 my entire team got wiped out by one single whale haechi (not a tanker). once around level 10 (doesn't take long) it was facing silvers.
Following the current Tanker crack down if the game doesn't recover who will you blame? My hunch is that if Pix was to remove all the tankers the system would have to be tanked by the MM-er so basically Pix and everyone is in a catch 22 situation in this respect.
The root cause it the reason why the game is haemorrhaging. When people go off on "tanker" tangents the attention is diverted from the real issue and allows pix to have lip service time while pissing in players pockets and saying it is just rain.

As always, a perfect summation! |

This game is dying. Pixonic killed the old matchmaking system (Tier) where fun rules, but replaced by the Tanker's Paradise (League).
