New matchmaking has killed the game for skilled players
After playing 100+ battles in multiple Tier 10 tanks with a historical win rate of 65%+ , my win rate gets adjusted towards 50% regardless of performance with the new matchmaking. It seems the new matchmaking system deliberately pairs you with weaker teams if you perform too well, or stronger teams if you underperform, effectively rubberbanding everyone's win rate to around 50%.
This manipulation appears consistent, suggesting the matchmaking is designed to normalise win rates, to the point where Diamond rating battles are now easier to carry than random battles.

P.S. The new MM didn’t go live straight away with the update. It’s started to trickle through over the past couple of days. To all my fellow super unicums, you will know it once you get slapped with this MM. May our souls rest in peace.
