Arty can’t float.

Guy claims he “fell” into the water.

Right at the end of the round with multiple tanks trying to kill him – he ‘fell’ in a straight line and kept driving deeper, preventing the enemy team from destroying his tank.

I posted this one on Reddit, for fun, but it may or may not go over well.

An arty in a recent game got all bent out of shape when a light tank made it through and killed him.

We were on Outpost, and I was well up in the middle of the map having a 1v2 with a couple of mediums trying to take the mid-location.

Once I saw the light get lit by our friendly arty, I disengaged to rush back to our spawn to kill the light.

I did help kill the light before he could do any more significant damage. We went on to win the match.

Apparently, despite my efforts, arty chose me to yell at and blamed me for his demise.

I laughed and asked what I’d done wrong. The light didn’t come through the middle where I was.

After the battle, the guy says, “Enjoy your profile on [redacted]”

Sure...

OMG – what a fun battle. I played poorly but still did well and helped secure victory when it seemed as if we might not win. With the clock running down, we finally did it.

Malinovka – Standard Battle with tier 8 and 9 tanks. I pulled off an Ace Tanker with High Caliber using *only* three HEAT rounds. I was able to put some damage into 9 of the 15 enemy tanks.

I am running my Object 268/4 Crew in this tank today. Funny thing, I *almost* moved a different crew in for advanced crew training.

Standard Battle on El Halluf in the ISU-152K –

I got eliminated a bit early when the enemy came and “swarmed” our spawn, but I did not go down without fighting.

I can see by the name exactly why this asshole decided to team-kill me today. I know, you’re saying “team kill”? You can’t team kill anymore in World of tanks.

yeah, but asshole Cry_In_Vetbadge_ got behind me and pushed me out into enemy fire 100% intentionally.

Clip will be uploaded here.

It took me all of 30 seconds to figure out why he did it to me. I had my “vet badge” on my account so it shows up in the game.

This guy uses anonymizer to hide his real in-game name. It’s probably so he can hide his less-than-stellar stats from XVM users.

__Ratchet2__ is one of those guys who gets his childish feelings hurt when the team doesn’t play how he thinks they should.

This poor chap decided to commit suicide immediately at the start of the round and exclaimed: “I don’t waste time on lemming teams”

He remained in chat throughout the battle, hoping and praying that we would lose, and yet, we pulled off a victory despite his belief that we were playing poorly.

The guy has 112,699 battles, which is pretty impressive (first battle August 4, 2011). However, in all that time, he hasn’t managed to crack a 50% winrate. I hate to stats shame but it’s obvious this guy cares very little for winning...

Karelia standard battle with tier 9/tier 10. Only got an Ace because my 50% of my team camped spawn behind me, including a 35% player in a Mauschen. Guy sat in the same spot he spawned until nearly the very end. His reasoning is: I’m a very slow heavy.

I managed to get 4,391 spotting/assist damage along with 3,997 damage on my own, which isn’t great but not too shabby.

Cliff – Standard battle – tier 8/9 battle 10/6/23

So much fun! North spawn, I told the west route and camped at D1 and SO many of their tanks came that way… they just kept pushing, and I kept firing. Had a friendly Ferdi beside me (he shot me in the ass twice).

10/5/23 – Standard Battle on Erlenberg with tier 8 and tier 9.

Don’t have a story to write about this, I was as surprised as anyone to pick up an ace.

E100 joins a battle and doesn’t move. Feeds the enemy his HP. He was the only player on the team to do literally nothing: No shots fired. No spotting damage. He only moved at the very last minute; I assumed he was driving into enemy fire.

This perennial loser has earned a 38% win rate in the E100 but 44% overall.
