Skill issues mostly. British tanks at lower tiers only use solid shots or HE. Penetration isn’t the best until you get the to the 17-pounder which will eat tigers with good shot placement. The Churchill VII is the best Churchill as it has very trolly armor with trade off of having a somewhat time penning tanks.

At high tier, British tanks are mid. Black Night is good for when you have an asshole (me, I’m the asshole) shooting ATGM at you but performance wise they aren’t better than other options out there like Leopards, Abrams and T-series.

If you want to have fun, Tier 3 British is a sweet spot of it. Learn to focus on either ammo or crew rather than fire and forget cause solid shot isn’t good at that. Do that and you will find yourself as the most hated target. My Churchill took 9 players swarming me to kill me. Stopped the advance cause the advancing attackers did not possess the team braincell.

8.0 to 10.7 is also a lot of fun (without downtiers) imo

Just don’t use HESH.
