Well then definitely the expected and actual is wrong then since it looks like MM is trying as hard as possible to do even 3:3:9 just to make +2 MM possible.
On pref MM tanks, if all tanks are getting 5:10 MM majority of the time (and I assume bottom tier most of the time because SBMM or whatever), then I will stop playing pref MM tanks (and switch to a non-pref counterpart which probably exists) and agree that they are underpowered, because they do not give any advantage over normal MM tanks except for... Let's say 20% of the time.
But fact remains that this server is being screwed by 357MM and hence pref MM tanks are thriving. If you sell a tank whose difference is the MM it receives then it is natural that the value and balance of the tank depends on the MM meta.
Or let me put it this way
I don't see a difference in difficulty between a 175mm - 200mm pen gun trying to shoot tier 9 compared to a 200mm - 225mm pen gun trying to shoot tier X.
Years of IS-6 and Superpershing had already thought me that 170mm is sufficient to pen pretty much everything if you aim their sides. Until Obj. 257 came anyway.
