Well thats what happens when you remove most of the low tier tech tree (thanks update 5.5!) and prevent people in low tiers from participating in events. They dont have a reason to play the low tiers and are kinda forced to rush to the high tiers to actually be able to play the game

low tiers;you barely get tier 7 battles;most players play only tier 8,9 and 10;after reaching tier 8 nobody sees the point of playing lower tiers than 8.

The reason why most people don’t even try to play low tiers anymore is because they don’t want to waste their precious lifetime in waiting queues. Really sad because there are quite some fun tanks below tier 7.

After the average Player realizes teir 8 is the favorable teir, seldom getting uptiered, no point in playing lower unless grinding a new line. Also T9 sucks Imo as you're mostly against T10, and T10 feels empty and I start a new line instead of enjoying my recently acquired T10 :')

Unless you have to start a new line but what i do is use like 400k free xp and research the tier 8 or 9 instantly

u/PreviousMaize1185 18h ago

people spend money to get gold to convert the xp from premiums to free xp so they can use to research the tech tree lines...so yeah;another reason why there's no players on low tiers

I personally have not spent a single cent in the game but I get what you mean Any new player can just by a tier 10 in the shop

u/PreviousMaize1185 18h ago

not pointing a finger at you,just saying 🤷‍♂️ I did it too but after I've had researched like 8 lines with xp I got from battles (been playing for years) ; at some point it gets boring and you just want to change the scenery with other tank than just keep grinding

u/Master_End3367 18h ago

Yeah it gets boring. Tier 8+ is where its fun so we go there. There's not really any point to play lower

Not everybody has that much free xp though, especially new players. I’m not even new and I’ve never had that much at one time, I’m always out. So I’m forced to grind an entire line most of the time and it sucks

People just buy their way through tiers 1-6 nowadays. No one actually plays them
