More often than not it is our performance in a vehicle and against it, that determines our own opinion about its power level. And opinions differ greatly from one person to another. To be as objective as possible I will exclude premium and reward vehicles from this list, and rely on global win rate as the main criterium. in short: because it shows what an "average" player can achieve in a certain tank, but of course it is A LOT more complicated than that. I will do my best to explain why I chose this stat over WN8 for example (which will not stop me from writing down average global WN8 as well). My reasoning is: Team-based games are meant to be played to win. When you're in a World of Tanks random battle, your main goal should be to help your team in beating the enemy and you shouldn't resort to playing for WN8 if the outcome of the game isn't already decided. Your average win rate should reflect the impact your tank has on the outcome of a battle, and it should be higher in more powerful vehicles. WN8 rating doesn't always reflect that, because it encourages selfish play and so-called stat padding. You may point out that stat padding win rating is as, if not more, common than padding WN8, and you would be right, but. stat padders usually use overpowered, low tier, premium tanks, like Pz 2 J (this is one of the reasons why premium tanks are excluded from this list) to raise their win rate, and even if a tech tree tank is used for stat padding, its overall statistics will be diluted because of the sheer amount of casual players playing at the lower tiers its a matter of proportion really - low tier op premium tanks are played almost exclusively by stat padders, while overpowered tanks that are available in the tech tree are played mostly by casuals, because casuals are the largest part of WoT community. There were and still are some exceptions, most notable of them being, of course, the T 67 which isn't even on this list (spoiler), but these exceptions usually get nerfed sooner or later (does anyone remember the "old" Marder II or Hellcat?). So if we assume that lower tier tech tree tanks are played mostly by casuals, we can state that the global win rate shows how easy it is for an AVERAGE player to perform well in a tank. In other words, this list will feature tanks that community as a whole does the best in, and not necessarily most overpowered ones Tier for Tier.ĭisclaimer: I will not go too deeply into stats like mobility, armor, firepower and gun handling, and try to keep it simple while still informative, and entertaining. I"ll point out the best and worst (in my opinion) features of each tank, and analyze why it performs well in the hands of mythical "average" WoT player. And yes, everyone could just simply look into global statistics and make this list by themselves, but not everyone has knowledge and game experience necessary to analyze why statistics are what they are. With all this out of the way, let us get straight to the list.īEST WORLD OF TANKS VEHICLES FROM TIER I TO TIER X Tier You can also check our other, more specific comparison: I will also do a more in-depth analysis in future articles featuring the top 5 best tanks of each tier. Performance analysis - Leichttraktor has the best stock gun of any Tier I tanks and is, therefore, the easiest to do well in from the get-go. Its armor is nothing to boast about, even at tier I, but it can bounce some stray autocannon shells. Mobility is good enough to get around, and the view range is the best in the tier ( it has 30 more than any other tier I tank, for some reason). Very strong all-around armor, good gun depression Thanks to these features "Loltraktor" is the most well-rounded vehicle of its tier, and that is enough to also be the best by win rate. Performance analysis- This tank has armor that favorably to the armor of "Micromaus", and one does not get a nickname "Micromaus" for no reason. Its gun has adequate penetration (although it will struggle to penetrate another R35 from the front), as well as good depression and elevation values. The only weak spot of the R35 is its butt, and it is still 32mm thick which is more than most of tier II tanks have in the front.
