Keep doing these videos, this one helped me a lot on how to counter. I knew that we would lose in those situations but just didn't know on how to counter them until I saw you video which shed a bright light in my head. I get quiet pissed when I lose or die cause half the time I carry the team with like 2.5k dmg and the rest of the team get like 900 or below and I am the only one that gets the kills too:(.

the most frustrating thing as for me is when i start spotting a red tank and my heavy immediately decided changing it original course and yolo to it ignoring that there are another 6 enemy tanks not yet spotted..i just can facefalm with that.
Thank you Droodles for the great video. We all missed you. Sometimes I think we are overly ambitious trying to be better in this game we all love. There is a number of newbies not understanding the basic game mechanics. There is a number of kids just playing the game. And a number of casual players just trying to blow some tanks. Also, a number of inexperienced or mediocre players ordering the team where to go not knowing what they are supposed to do. Players not even looking at the in-game chat or team orders. Players who would just want to counter team order out of malice. Players who do not know whose orders they should listen to, etc. I had a number of players countering judicious team order (e.g. on Middleburg 2 heavies, a TD and 4 meds, and heavies countering the order to go UP or C side), asking me in chat why should they go with mediums as they are heavies, and as so they spawned and should go heavy route. Solutions? Stop playing Blitz? Give up and go with the flow? Push WG for different type of MM, like ratings, which I generally consider a good idea, however poorly implemented with small player population. These days I played with 2600-4300 rating points players in the same team. Have some kind of general idea of a player performance in a team list, not just stupid military honour, as it was in PC WOT (WR, WN7/8, games played, avg dmg...). In this case at least less experienced players should know who are they supposed to listen to... Divert newbies to TH-cam channels like this one? Or maybe all of this just suits well for WG business policy? Mediocre or even good players trying to be better, buying more OP premium tanks? I really can't tell. My apologies for the excessively long post. Keep it up Droodles. All the best!
9:25 One time I started sidescraping in the M6 at the start of the match and our heavies saw me and then started cowering behind me, refusing to push, even though we had a KV3 and tier 7 heavies. We lost simply because they refused to push.
Thanks Droodles, glad you are back posting videos. Love the content and your insight. Started watching your videos consistently back in December 2019 and my win rate, average damage, and kills have steadily increased. I am playing with much more confidence.
I advocate for heavies to nearly always go the med route unless there's a clear advantage not to. If heavies go med route, worst case scenario you have a 7 on 7, but often times you'll have a 7 on 2 or 3. Take them out quickly before the red heavies can get around the flank.
That makes all the sense while it's not supremacy match...high tiers in that mode going in groups and facing light tanks it's the perfect recipe for failure.
Some slow heavies are too slow to follow. I see teams outrun their heavies and die when they lack support. Then the heavies are easily flanked and overwhelmed.
you put it on point. valuable and nice video. make the right the decision where to go and know if you need to push or to hold is absolutly correct. good players know how importatnt that is. an main issue are the bot /noob players who react stupidly and decide to go the wrong way or dont know when to push or die stupidly early in the game.
Excellent video mate. The biggest problem is getting your team to understand these strategies. The thing I'm most struggling with atm is playing a heavy in higher tiers. I usually end up the only heavy on my team. Everyone seems to just be playing the new American lights and meds. It makes tiers 9-10 a bit annoying.
First time in a long time that I have seen stratsketch pulled out so huge kudos for getting tactical with the map. It all centers around map and lineup awareness.

I hope this gets around in the blitz community, especially around Asia, as this is common on Asia,. Not complaining but Asia is by the hardest server to win on Anychance for an amx 50 120 the underrated tier 9 review?
One of the reason why I'm grateful to go for NA server in the first place. Knowing Asians isn't as easy to communicate in English with. Later would I learn in my account in Asia that Asians were a bunch of muppets beyond of muppets. Not saying NA was any better tho
@@GGM_Grievous0030 yeah Ive been playing on Asia for 5 years, gave na a try and found it much smoother to play in, yeah they have there fair share of potato players but Asia....is just unexplainable whole their potato quality
Good points all, not only terrible teammates but it seems now 90% of my matches I am lower tier, which in some tanks renders some of the bad guys impenetrable unless you hit a tiny weak point with nothing but APCR that I can ill afford. Given that, my winrate is lower also because I do choose to play bad tanks sometimes just to help improve decision making, added to the fact that I am a nice guy and will help any clan mate with his missions upon request...which is why my winrate dropped 10 points in just one night. I really don't lose any sleep over it but make no mistake, I am extremely competitive.
I recognize everything you say. It is really terrible. I have been many times in such awkward situations where teammates make a full circle instead of turning around. The main issue here in my opinion is the lack of communication possibilities. You only got attack, hold and go to a certain flag. The lack of commands is really troubling. Also you just got maybe 100 characters for an entire message. There is no way you can turn events from happening if you have so little time and no way to convey the options.
Yeah can you do more of these types- like situational awareness, what to do when you're the only tank of your type, how to watch the minimap, map strategics, conserving hp- basically knowing what to do in any situation and why. Maybe predicting what's going to play out based on what you see and making smarter decisions with that, etc. Just some practical information on just playing the game regardless of the vehicle. Idk, you get the idea. Also if you're outnumbered on the medium flank what do you do?
If i was the only medium and the enemy has 3 mediums for example... i just cut the route they take to the flank and spot them early, if all of the mediums are going there i just take the shortcut route i came from runnn boiii to heavies and push Xd
Middleburg is the classic example of this. 9 times out of 10 the winning team on Middleburg is decided in the first 30 seconds depending on the tank lineups and which way each team decides to go. I think it was you in a video a long time ago who said that that its usually best on Middeburg for your entire team to go hills. Most likely, some of the enemy team heavies will go town and take forever to flank all the way thru town and up the back side into the hills and by then, your 7 tanks will have destroyed the 2 to 4 enemy tanks that went hills and then you have a big numbers advantage and you will own the high ground. One other possible outcome is that the entire enemy team goes town and now you own the high ground. The final possible outcome is that the entire enemy team also goes hills and you are no worse off because at least you have equal numbers. Now if your stubborn heavies and some TD’s decide that the Blitz gods demand that they must go town because they are not a medium or light tank, then the worst case outcome is that your meds and lights run into the entire enemy team in the hills and get destroyed and your team will be greatly outnumbered.
Droodles! Thanks very much for this video I was having KV 1S and I'm keep losing it was frustrated me ! And I'm in stage for uninstalling game thanks very much!
Many ‘good players’ don’t chat. They just go about their business. I will suggest a direction to encourage all to go together. Don’t care if they say no....but all go opposite so im happy anyway.
I you can all push hard it can work but having flanks exposed can be pretty dangerous is my feeling at the moment. I'm under impression mediums can move around while heavies hold a strategic line?
@@simonargall5508 Depents on the situation, If The heavies can hold up their Line long enough while The meds & light take down enemy light & medium tanks, The chance of winning will increase
This video must get more atention.. All ytbers are talking that it you own fault for all the loses but i think that for the last year teams are so bad... Its very hard to play without teamwork especialy in t10.. But people are too ignorant
Why you keep losing: Pro dependent... Noob Team... Not doing your role... Being too cocky... Camping... AFK... Your phone crashed... Troll... Buying Tier X tank without tutorials.
All my loses is basically all because my stubborn team never listen when I tell em where to go, they think they MUST go whichever side they spawned in.
I always lose some battles, the team don't work together, and don't help each other, it's stressful...But there are days with great team, and everyone have fum at end....I hate when one of my team guys dies for going alone in one side, when we all choose to go right...it's sucks when you try to make all the work and I'm called stupid or idiot....
The thing I’ve noticed about team tank line ups is that teams with 3 TDs are not very versatile. Ideally I only want a maximum of 2 TDs on my team, they are specialist vehicles, having 3 or 4 of them significantly reduces your teams mobility or durability. Just my observation.
tbh, its about the players... would you rather get 2 40%er TDs or 3 60%er TDs... its all about the players... Useless players will always be useless...
John Smith I’m not saying player quality isn’t a factor, I’m saying having 3 TDs on your team isn’t very good regardless of player experience and skill.
Even more hilarious ways to lose when I tried my best as instructor, and this morning (Asia) I lost 0.06% of my winrate just because of "genius" teammates!!! 🤣 RIP my rest day 🤣 Well sometimes such players need a morality and sportsmanship education, but WG ignores doing anything about it just like my mates ignore where I point on the minimap lol :v
Two months ago I was a brand new player. When I started the game I didn’t know the “right way” to play the game. I still don’t but I’m learning by watching tube vids put out by way more experienced players. Thx! I have been bad mouthed by other players and told to go home. That is not nice. They can eat my shorts. I would much rather have gotten a positive suggestion instead. Thanks for your positive input on game tactics.
The problem that I always notice, is that people have a "spot" they go to, and will not leave it. They always want someone else to go up front, to be the spotter/shell magnet, while they sit back in cover, and just shoot. How they never realize that once the front guy dies, their hiding spot in back will now be "front line". It's maddening to say, "We are flanked", yet not one person turns around.
@@VaultTec30000 Right?! In Supremacy, all are at 1 cap, the cap behind us being capped, but everyone seems clueless as to what that means is happening.
Actually ideally you want a player to stay in that corner. The corner on bottom left or top left is a amazing spot for sniping. You get 1 good TD on that spot, he can seriously support the entire team. But you want tanks that are suitable to be there, not just some random tank.
I hate when my teams think that the game is NASCAR. Dont keep cirkling the map, You are leaving the slow tanks behind, Which means that they are gonna get picked apart from thw enemy
I mean there is no one thing you can do to immediately get better. What i and many other players did was watch tones of videos to learn new strategies and other things to get better and have the mindset of a good player. Its very important to also learn how to use your tank how to manipulate your gun depression or how to angle or whatnot
@droodles, when I’m in a Med and our meds are outnumbered, I will often go to the back of the heavies and find a good position to face the inevitable enemy Med flank Attack from behind. If our heavies are decent players we often win because they will outnumber and kill enemy heavies while I hold off enemies at their back. But it often doesn’t work on middleburg because there are too many entry points from side and rear for me to hold.
Honestly im not that good player but for past month or more i usually take daily 5 to 6 losess in row and this happens when match maker put me in teams 40% or so players against 55%+ players even i get same names over and over of bad players On other side theres too many noobs on this game 400 battle or so in higher tiers But most acts i got annoyed with players driving meds/lights are pushing heavies and tds and leave 3 enemies flankers to smash you from behind,camper heavies I don't think this issue will be sloved wargaming wont work on match maker to balance solution or they will limit access to higher tiers or unlocking tank or even put tutorials for tanks types and what objectives for each types Droodles brilliant tips this scenario always happens meds dead and slow brain heavies to push ended them in cross fire
LOL.. same with me, the MM is not balanced for me... i dropped from 51-49 and yet the MM keep giving me Noobs vs 52-62% players my team average Me and a good player, the rest noobs that doesn't know which way to go..and just YOLO and died less than 2 min meanwhile the Enemy know how to use armor, hulldown/ SideScrape..etc MM is a BS, idk how people get 52-60% win rate i already stopped blitz, and I'll be back when they fixed the MM
My first 4 5 rounds are defeats because everybody does not help this guy who just gut flanked by 2 meds (wich is probaly always me) like there are 3 oneshot tanks behind me and they act like i were they shield and im taking all the damage and nobody shots a shell thats why i keep losing 1. u are always the target 2. nobody helps u or others
Too many people who play think I yolo when i stray off to keep 2 or 3 enemy tanks busy, they tell me to pull back and i just tell them hey you have a 6 v 4 on your side of the map attack fools!!! People dont even take advantage of the situiation they think too little, you needa think big!!
How about the players that camp we're they don't have shoots that piss me off is a waste of 1 or 2 players, and i have seen platoons that just go yolo and die 0 points and get mad att the team why ya go solo rambo , some times people just don't fallow directions and do what ever they want to do and don't help ,and the other that only shoot to still kills wot blitz is getting worse every year. I enjoy the information and videos keep up the good work.
@@1967KID I think you meant to coment on the video not on my coment idk im confused, but i agree campers that die with no damage are the worst, even the yolo players that die at least usually spot before they rip.
As true as you said Droodles, you cannot cover all reasons why any team loses, yet no good players - to some extent - can foresee a bad behaving players. I don't believe that many with 10-30k battles experience still drive their tanks like their first time learning to ride a bike...
They don’t listen because blitz used to have the command set to “chat disabled” and they just don’t listen, and quick chat it just doesn’t get through, all the heavies in the first match up should’ve held and even in most games I play I eat heavies or players that go all away around the map not cutting a single corner or people that go alone after telling these people not to they just don’t listen, and we still can’t do anything about meds and lights or heavies camping because they either don’t have chat on or just don’t listen to what people say or quick chat. WG needs to add a permanent mode that puts you in with players your skill level by adding like a ranked game like “bronze, silver, gold” etc, whenever this happens my brain just explodes. I say “don’t go alone” they go alone, and usually matchups where we have the better meds and lights or just more of them the heavies just don’t look at the bloody types of vehicles your team has compared to yours. They need to add a tutorial that helps gives you more experience
Map reading is most important skill in game. I got it after about 7k battles but most players never do. That's not the big problem if they listen to these who can but it's just horrible problem if they don't. Often after first 10 seconds of battle I can predict the score of the battle with 70-80% of effectiveness. And considering that everything shatters about noobs.
You ever go in training rooms and get in a fight and they say “shit win rate” then they go into complaining about matchmaking, yeah feels bad. Or in normal battles obviously, they must’ve forgotten it’s a team game, stats don’t mean a thing when it comes to 1v1’s, except for the accuracy
Thanks Droodles yeah I know why I keep losing it was update 5.5 to many noobs at the higher tiers since 5.5 my win rate went from 52.80 to 52.33 I see players in tier 10 tanks with less than 300 battles or i see a player in a E75 with less than 200 battles they have no clue how to play these tanks😕
You make only 14% of your team. The biggest problem occurs when the remaing 86 % of your team are bad players. MM Is the main reason you keep losing. Don't play with Stock tanks or without 100% crew, you Will get very bad teammates
OMG...this is so true. lack of map awareness and not knowing their tanks and enemy tanks and especially yoloing due to players playing fast tanks. they dont hold a line and know when to push and if youre in a slow tank they leave u behind only for the reds to flank around and kill you without effort. I tell people all the time its a team game and keeping your team mates alive is important and focus fire because every tank killed is one less shooting back. do u know how many games i have seen where the reds will have 5 one shots and not lose on player? lol
This happens so much, I'm like guys they're coming from the med side, we all need to watch mid and go through the heavy side to their spawn. My team is like no that's no, and just kinda does whatever, I'm told to shut up because ik we're gonna lose and I'm trying to position them while flanking the reds with 2 other meds. But they just wanna stand and die. They dont have the will to win, they just dont care.
Nice informative video. Now speaking as a noob player, i would really wish that the good experienced players would ALLWAYS call out a plan. More often than not, we have no plan, or someone calls out to late. Call out a plan right away - any plan is better than none. Or you end up with us, the noobs, calling out a, not so good, plan.......
PRO TIP: Don't give a dam about Win-rate or if you're a Pay to Win then just rush buy ATGM, WZ120-FT, DRAC, HELSING those fun-op injected tanks are a blessing it gives you a free way to troll everytime on any MAP. To tell you honestly I was a 60++ Rating easy with this technique.
Droodles : "four vs three it's a an easy win let's push. We have 2000hp more and 1 gun advantage." I push, my teammates are fking bots they waste all thier shots. I die. Wow. Now we are losing both sides.
Ah yes some little addition: don't just count team composition by their tanks type. For example: is-3, french hts, and vk 45.02A should not be counted as heavy tanks, they sould play medium roles.
yeah...i think MM needs to somehow include total number of games played. i just played a tier 3 game. Three of the enemy team were over 15K battles in (one over 25K), and none of my team (including me) were over 500. Guess how that went? Not the balance WG are claiming to be trying to achieve. I heard a lot of new players quit. If it's true, being continually thrashed by seasoned players isn't exactly encouraging.
Why people keep losing in Asian server 1) they let their kids playing on their account 2)Wrong Job 3) Rush 4) Saying Chinese/Foreign language to the point where we not understand what they trying to tell us 5) Underestimate your opponent (srsly enemy IS-3 Defender decided to think is a good Idea to ignore an ST Emil who basically drain his health to death) 6) Never learn what is the mistake 7) over extended 8) Forgot about your team overall speed 9) Wallet warriors 10) Smashers 11) Be a Smashers
These things always happen to me for 5 months now its really frustrating and i rage coz players wont play like a normal player instead they play like 3 year olds this cant be fixed but players need to change to make the game fun
xX_Frakes_Xx from -BA- here. Now how do we get this to the masses??? 🤔 Every single thing you just went over happened to me on Faust last night. 2.9k 3 kills in k91. Granted I yolo'd to cap d, then I WAS going to sweep back to the team(mind you this was tier X). My entire team except for the 183 were dead within 30 seconds of me getting the cap.... Not all reds went A either. There were 3 HT's in the game. I went D, the 2 reds went C.
Everytime the enemy are about to flank us I say “ Attack!” But guess what? Nothing they just hold there and die from the meds and it’s the most annoying thing in the game

There is a number of newbies not understanding the basic game mechanics.

Players who would just want to counter team order out of malice.

Solutions?
Stop playing Blitz?
Give up and go with the flow?
Push WG for different type of MM, like ratings, which I generally consider a good idea, however poorly implemented with small player population. These days I played with 2600-4300 rating points players in the same team.

i just cut the route they take to the flank and spot them early, if all of the mediums are going there i just take the shortcut route i came from runnn boiii to heavies and push Xd
Works very well with Vickers, Batchat, Obj 140 they hardly get out spotted by other meds
I now get it!!!!! Thank you Droodles...
I love the way you explain everything!!!
Great! Going to watch more 'old' strategy videos
Ah this will be interesting...
2:11
*ptsd intensifies*
Who skrinches when you find out 2 Annihilators are platooning on the red team???
laughs in 3 red annilihators... We barely won
Thanks Droodles, very interesting !
Middleburg is the classic example of this. 9 times out of 10 the winning team on Middleburg is decided in the first 30 seconds depending on the tank lineups and which way each team decides to go. I think it was you in a video a long time ago who said that that its usually best on Middeburg for your entire team to go hills. Most likely, some of the enemy team heavies will go town and take forever to flank all the way thru town and up the back side into the hills and by then, your 7 tanks will have destroyed the 2 to 4 enemy tanks that went hills and then you have a big numbers advantage and you will own the high ground.
One other possible outcome is that the entire enemy team goes town and now you own the high ground. The final possible outcome is that the entire enemy team also goes hills and you are no worse off because at least you have equal numbers.
Now if your stubborn heavies and some TD’s decide that the Blitz gods demand that they must go town because they are not a medium or light tank, then the worst case outcome is that your meds and lights run into the entire enemy team in the hills and get destroyed and your team will be greatly outnumbered.
Great vid!
Droodles! Thanks very much for this video I was having KV 1S and I'm keep losing it was frustrated me ! And I'm in stage for uninstalling game thanks very much!
Thank you Droodles I am doing much better now
Many ‘good players’ don’t chat. They just go about their business. I will suggest a direction to encourage all to go together. Don’t care if they say no....but all go opposite so im happy anyway.
i hate those heavies who wants everyone to go "city"... That's the "getting sniped to death" recipes...
@@VaultTec30000 or , "Left , all left. Right, all right"
Boom, they are all dead
I you can all push hard it can work but having flanks exposed can be pretty dangerous is my feeling at the moment. I'm under impression mediums can move around while heavies hold a strategic line?
@@simonargall5508 Depents on the situation, If The heavies can hold up their Line long enough while The meds & light take down enemy light & medium tanks, The chance of winning will increase
they just want to farm damage like me:). I farm off of my teammates mistakes.
This video must get more atention.. All ytbers are talking that it you own fault for all the loses but i think that for the last year teams are so bad... Its very hard to play without teamwork especialy in t10.. But people are too ignorant
Why you keep losing:
Pro dependent...
Noob Team...
Not doing your role...
Being too cocky...
Camping...
AFK...
Your phone crashed...
Troll...
Buying Tier X tank without tutorials.
Finaly somebody that understands !!! Medium should never follow heavy !!! It should always be the opposite !!!!!
All my loses is basically all because my stubborn team never listen when I tell em where to go, they think they MUST go whichever side they spawned in.
Lol
Pay to win 7, play for fun 0. This is how games end now, bad teams or bad matchmaking.
I always lose some battles, the team don't work together, and don't help each other, it's stressful...But there are days with great team, and everyone have fum at end....I hate when one of my team guys dies for going alone in one side, when we all choose to go right...it's sucks when you try to make all the work and I'm called stupid or idiot....
That's the point!
Unlike driving a car, you can't just focus on whatever is in front of you! You will have to read the map and predict correctly!
Like the intro
The thing I’ve noticed about team tank line ups is that teams with 3 TDs are not very versatile. Ideally I only want a maximum of 2 TDs on my team, they are specialist vehicles, having 3 or 4 of them significantly reduces your teams mobility or durability.
Just my observation.
tbh, its about the players... would you rather get 2 40%er TDs or 3 60%er TDs... its all about the players... Useless players will always be useless...
John Smith I’m not saying player quality isn’t a factor, I’m saying having 3 TDs on your team isn’t very good regardless of player experience and skill.
Ya great vid on this one droodles... I'll be posted this in my clan
Even more hilarious ways to lose when I tried my best as instructor, and this morning (Asia) I lost 0.06% of my winrate just because of "genius" teammates!!! 🤣 RIP my rest day 🤣
Well sometimes such players need a morality and sportsmanship education, but WG ignores doing anything about it just like my mates ignore where I point on the minimap lol :v
Two months ago I was a brand new player. When I started the game I didn’t know the “right way” to play the game. I still don’t but I’m learning by watching tube vids put out by way more experienced players. Thx! I have been bad mouthed by other players and told to go home. That is not nice. They can eat my shorts. I would much rather have gotten a positive suggestion instead. Thanks for your positive input on game tactics.
I’ve lost 0.16 today
@@MrHistory269 went from 58 to 56.16 fam !!!
@@omshree901 I went from 56% to 52% because I had to grind a stock Leo
You nailed it, brother!
Feed me Seymour!
The problem that I always notice, is that people have a "spot" they go to, and will not leave it. They always want someone else to go up front, to be the spotter/shell magnet, while they sit back in cover, and just shoot. How they never realize that once the front guy dies, their hiding spot in back will now be "front line".
It's maddening to say, "We are flanked", yet not one person turns around.
When i'm playing heavies, i hate meds and light tanks all going to heavy routes... That's how you get flank...
@@VaultTec30000 Right?! In Supremacy, all are at 1 cap, the cap behind us being capped, but everyone seems clueless as to what that means is happening.
Lets be real tho, on deadrail there is ALWAYS one guy that stays in one of the corners. Doesnt matter what class they are.
Actually ideally you want a player to stay in that corner. The corner on bottom left or top left is a amazing spot for sniping. You get 1 good TD on that spot, he can seriously support the entire team. But you want tanks that are suitable to be there, not just some random tank.
I hate when my teams think that the game is NASCAR. Dont keep cirkling the map, You are leaving the slow tanks behind, Which means that they are gonna get picked apart from thw enemy
Asia server all goes YOLO and rushes and they don't provide support or even communicate which makes Asia server the hardest server to ace on
I mean there is no one thing you can do to immediately get better. What i and many other players did was watch tones of videos to learn new strategies and other things to get better and have the mindset of a good player. Its very important to also learn how to use your tank how to manipulate your gun depression or how to angle or whatnot
@droodles, when I’m in a Med and our meds are outnumbered, I will often go to the back of the heavies and find a good position to face the inevitable enemy Med flank Attack from behind. If our heavies are decent players we often win because they will outnumber and kill enemy heavies while I hold off enemies at their back. But it often doesn’t work on middleburg because there are too many entry points from side and rear for me to hold.
Honestly im not that good player but for past month or more i usually take daily 5 to 6 losess in row and this happens when match maker put me in teams 40% or so players against 55%+ players even i get same names over and over of bad players
On other side theres too many noobs on this game 400 battle or so in higher tiers
But most acts i got annoyed with players driving meds/lights are pushing heavies and tds and leave 3 enemies flankers to smash you from behind,camper heavies
I don't think this issue will be sloved wargaming wont work on match maker to balance solution or they will limit access to higher tiers or unlocking tank or even put tutorials for tanks types and what objectives for each types
Droodles brilliant tips this scenario always happens meds dead and slow brain heavies to push ended them in cross fire
LOL..
same with me, the MM is not balanced for me...
i dropped from 51-49
and yet the MM keep giving me Noobs vs 52-62% players
my team average
Me and a good player, the rest noobs that doesn't know which way to go..and just YOLO and died less than 2 min
meanwhile the Enemy know how to use armor, hulldown/ SideScrape..etc
MM is a BS, idk how people get 52-60% win rate
i already stopped blitz, and I'll be back when they fixed the MM
My first 4 5 rounds are defeats because everybody does not help this guy who just gut flanked by 2 meds (wich is probaly always me) like there are 3 oneshot tanks behind me and they act like i were they shield and im taking all the damage and nobody shots a shell thats why i keep losing 1. u are always the target 2. nobody helps u or others
Too many people who play think I yolo when i stray off to keep 2 or 3 enemy tanks busy, they tell me to pull back and i just tell them hey you have a 6 v 4 on your side of the map attack fools!!! People dont even take advantage of the situiation they think too little, you needa think big!!
How about the players that camp we're they don't have shoots that piss me off is a waste of 1 or 2 players, and i have seen platoons that just go yolo and die 0 points and get mad att the team why ya go solo rambo , some times people just don't fallow directions and do what ever they want to do and don't help ,and the other that only shoot to still kills wot blitz is getting worse every year. I enjoy the information and videos keep up the good work.
@@1967KID I think you meant to coment on the video not on my coment idk im confused, but i agree campers that die with no damage are the worst, even the yolo players that die at least usually spot before they rip.
I have also realised that a lot of players turn off their chat so even if you try and tell them where to go they wont hear it.
Hey droodles, how do I win if I have 3afks in spawn. Pls reply
Make the enemies afk too?
The most pain ever is when u get so low hp by an enemy tank to kill it and then some random dude kills ur enemy tank
As true as you said Droodles, you cannot cover all reasons why any team loses, yet no good players - to some extent - can foresee a bad behaving players. I don't believe that many with 10-30k battles experience still drive their tanks like their first time learning to ride a bike...
They don’t listen because blitz used to have the command set to “chat disabled” and they just don’t listen, and quick chat it just doesn’t get through, all the heavies in the first match up should’ve held and even in most games I play I eat heavies or players that go all away around the map not cutting a single corner or people that go alone after telling these people not to they just don’t listen, and we still can’t do anything about meds and lights or heavies camping because they either don’t have chat on or just don’t listen to what people say or quick chat. WG needs to add a permanent mode that puts you in with players your skill level by adding like a ranked game like “bronze, silver, gold” etc, whenever this happens my brain just explodes. I say “don’t go alone” they go alone, and usually matchups where we have the better meds and lights or just more of them the heavies just don’t look at the bloody types of vehicles your team has compared to yours. They need to add a tutorial that helps gives you more experience
As long as we don't see doodles gone wild during spring break lol
Map reading is most important skill in game. I got it after about 7k battles but most players never do. That's not the big problem if they listen to these who can but it's just horrible problem if they don't. Often after first 10 seconds of battle I can predict the score of the battle with 70-80% of effectiveness. And considering that everything shatters about noobs.
That is why I play in platoon, cuz we can push a flank if we have more or better tanks or if we are loosing the other flank
You ever go in training rooms and get in a fight and they say “shit win rate” then they go into complaining about matchmaking, yeah feels bad. Or in normal battles obviously, they must’ve forgotten it’s a team game, stats don’t mean a thing when it comes to 1v1’s, except for the accuracy
Thanks Droodles yeah I know why I keep losing it was update 5.5 to many noobs at the higher tiers since 5.5 my win rate went from 52.80 to 52.33 I see players in tier 10 tanks with less than 300 battles or i see a player in a E75 with less than 200 battles they have no clue how to play these tanks😕
I'm a muppet, that might have something to do with it!
nub
You make only 14% of your team. The biggest problem occurs when the remaing 86 % of your team are bad players. MM Is the main reason you keep losing. Don't play with Stock tanks or without 100% crew, you Will get very bad teammates
this was veryhelpfull thx
This is why voice chat would be great for WOTB
Well it will be gonna toxic WOTB is full of toxic mental problem kids But.... why not ?
@@stevenardian5559 imagine kids screaming Xddddd
Battle: 3... 2.. 1....
Voice chat: f** **** bot 39% fck fck
Xddd
Nicely done. Mostly it's the nubs doing whatever they want
But won't at least 1-2 reds die in a fight as well? If it's 4 reds vs 3 greens, the greens can at least take out 1-2 reds.
OMG...this is so true. lack of map awareness and not knowing their tanks and enemy tanks and especially yoloing due to players playing fast tanks. they dont hold a line and know when to push and if youre in a slow tank they leave u behind only for the reds to flank around and kill you without effort. I tell people all the time its a team game and keeping your team mates alive is important and focus fire because every tank killed is one less shooting back. do u know how many games i have seen where the reds will have 5 one shots and not lose on player? lol
hii droodles
What you said is 100% right but when only 1 out of 7 players has a brain it won’t work.
Good takes against a Smasher.
Me: Oh yeah that so true.
Smasher players: Liar!!!
Its all about initiative.
Even noob mistakes you mention makes sense and have a reason. My matches are always pure chaos. There is no logic behind any action.
The issue is the guys with gold tank or Heavy tank think they are the leader but go the wrong side
This happens so much, I'm like guys they're coming from the med side, we all need to watch mid and go through the heavy side to their spawn. My team is like no that's no, and just kinda does whatever, I'm told to shut up because ik we're gonna lose and I'm trying to position them while flanking the reds with 2 other meds. But they just wanna stand and die. They dont have the will to win, they just dont care.
You forgot the link for strategy sketch
oof you right
And if there’s a TD covering the rear of the heavy’s?
thanks man I been looking for this since I can't use wot blitz map from play store
edit: so true this very much a daily day food (lose)
Nice informative video.
Now speaking as a noob player, i would really wish that the good experienced players would ALLWAYS call out a plan. More often than not, we have no plan, or someone calls out to late.
Call out a plan right away - any plan is better than none.
Or you end up with us, the noobs, calling out a, not so good, plan.......
PRO TIP: Don't give a dam about Win-rate or if you're a Pay to Win then just rush buy ATGM, WZ120-FT, DRAC, HELSING those fun-op injected tanks are a blessing it gives you a free way to troll everytime on any MAP. To tell you honestly I was a 60++ Rating easy with this technique.
Droodles : "four vs three it's a an easy win let's push. We have 2000hp more and 1 gun advantage."
I push, my teammates are fking bots they waste all thier shots. I die. Wow. Now we are losing both sides.
I keep losing because Im forced to babysit all of the little kids
Droodles, I got a few teams to cooperate using your trick.
Ah yes some little addition: don't just count team composition by their tanks type. For example: is-3, french hts, and vk 45.02A should not be counted as heavy tanks, they sould play medium roles.
yeah...i think MM needs to somehow include total number of games played. i just played a tier 3 game. Three of the enemy team were over 15K battles in (one over 25K), and none of my team (including me) were over 500. Guess how that went? Not the balance WG are claiming to be trying to achieve. I heard a lot of new players quit. If it's true, being continually thrashed by seasoned players isn't exactly encouraging.
Why people keep losing in Asian server
1) they let their kids playing on their account
2)Wrong Job
3) Rush
4) Saying Chinese/Foreign language to the point where we not understand what they trying to tell us
5) Underestimate your opponent (srsly enemy IS-3 Defender decided to think is a good Idea to ignore an ST Emil who basically drain his health to death)
6) Never learn what is the mistake
7) over extended
8) Forgot about your team overall speed
9) Wallet warriors
10) Smashers
11) Be a Smashers
These things always happen to me for 5 months now its really frustrating and i rage coz players wont play like a normal player instead they play like 3 year olds this cant be fixed but players need to change to make the game fun
xX_Frakes_Xx from -BA- here. Now how do we get this to the masses??? 🤔 Every single thing you just went over happened to me on Faust last night. 2.9k 3 kills in k91. Granted I yolo'd to cap d, then I WAS going to sweep back to the team(mind you this was tier X). My entire team except for the 183 were dead within 30 seconds of me getting the cap....
Not all reds went A either. There were 3 HT's in the game. I went D, the 2 reds went C.
Everytime the enemy are about to flank us I say “ Attack!” But guess what? Nothing they just hold there and die from the meds and it’s the most annoying thing in the game
Once my team had 5 med and lights but they still lost that side bruh and when I pushed in my st 1 they frickin stayed and I died and we lost ._.
I have broken my phone over blitz, this game fucking kills me
Make a video about win rates and events, I’ve gone from 56.6 down to 56.25 during blitz turns 6 and I’m not alone lol
have you ever play this game droodles? 5 heavies vs 2? :D
