this counteracts the camo value, so mediums are more effective at scouting than top tier SCOUTS are.

And against mediums? Fucking forget it.ДЄnd the lights aren't even that much faster than the mediums, and the mediums now have MORE view rane in some cases, which is full on potato by wargaming. So now when they are kiting heavies and TDs, they can't actually do damage to them. WG have also decided that Light tanks should only do damage by circlejerking a tank, so increased dispersion so much that LTs cant shoot over 200m away. Current light tank role works, new one is a fucking mess.ДЄlso with view range saturation, light tanks are forced to kite from over 400m away so they don't get lit and smacked by quite literally everything. TL:DR Redefining light tanks doesn't work when WG have decided on a set of restrictions which contradict the role of light tanks. possible but rare since maps aren't helpful) since they can actually hit the medium tanks at a distance and can run far away. Light tanks now can abuse their mobility to run away into advantageous positions to 1v1 mediums at times (i.e. You will lose every time since you cant do both shooting and scooting since you're going to miss if you scoot and you are going to die every time if you shoot.

Just robbing yourself of improved dpm, gun handling and mobility.ДЄlso with view range saturation, light tanks are forced to kite from over 400m away so they don't get lit and smacked by quite literally everything. Why the fuck run optics on them when you can just run vents? All the corridor maps means you don't even need to see fucking 300m let alone have 490m view range. Id rather see VR buffs for lights and then give us some bigger better maps. Giving heavy tanks the option to spot for themselves wouldn't be an issue if the maps weren't designed like corridors and tiny. If anything it wasnt that everything had VR (thats a good thing, makes carrying better for good players)ДЇor example my biggest hate for the kv3 was that it had no VR and got outspotted by anything. '445m' view range hahahah, idk how it works on SEA but my bloody JT and Conq have 490m view range. Adding 9's and 10's to the scout pool is going to have a much smaller effect on the game than top-tier lights down in 5-8 will (thus the clusterpanic with the tier 7-8 lights). Allowing them to be top tier creates massive balancing issues down the chain - the speed and vision it needs to be useful in upper tier fights makes it a beast against lower tiers, and balancing it against same-tier mediums cripples it against higher tiers.

A tier 6 scout that onlyВ sees tier 7-8 battles can be a whole different beast than one that draws from 4-8.

Replace the standard +1/+3 scout matchmaking with +1/+2 and balance from there, then revisit it next patch cycle. I think they should have done this in steps. They might have made a big mistake in not moving the Chinese line up a tier. Look how hard they hit the WZ131 to stop it murdering the tier 5s it will now see. For example, I'm looking forward to seeing what the WZ132 can do as top tier in t8 battles with just a small accuracy and VR nerf. I think their worry is based on the biggest change of all: that lights can now be top tier.
