Blackdog's up.

 

Remember when it was a good prem tank?

[Aoyama_Blue_Mountain]

Was it ever a good prem tank?

 

I hate that they never ever sell the GF version tho. It is wasting a slot for the Black Market lucky draw.

It was the only tier 8 premmie LT for some time; IIRC correctly T92 LT came later.

 

Earning premium level of credits for spotting damage was awesome.

In the pre e2.0 / like for like MM vision meta it was considerably more viable. Now it's cucked by most of the lights that you'll always be up against so you're relegated to a secondary supporty role that lots of tanks do better.

Yeah, I haven't touched my blackdog in ages.

 

What the hell is with three consecutive days of extremely meh German offerings?

 

Are these going to come in nation-themed streaks?

So next Blackdog, Mutz, Pz 58, Blackmutz, 168.01, Maurer, 7501, JT88, P88, KJP 90, KJP 105, Rampanzer... that's an entire week of mediocre German prems with their only decent ones the Skorp and maybe the E 75 TS

Nice!

How much gold is this one?

[3HitKO]

This year Advent Calendar is so boring until the update is stopped halfway -eh?

[3HitKO]

Finally the one behind cash paywall available in GOLD: 703 version II

 

I wonder this year last day which day will be locked behind cash paywall.

 

2020 => 703v2 only cash
2019 => VK75 only cash

Since this year advent still has 10 more days to go, I start to speculate there might be a new premium tank release on the last day of Advent.

 

EBR, (toxic and most likely cash-walled, and will increase the toxicity of the game multiple times if flooded those purchase with gold.)

Bourrasque, (fun to drive, might be offered in gold most likely)

Rpz07h, (same as bourrasque, but much higher skill floor needed to perform well)

AltProto AMX, (most recent marathon, not likely sell in gold)

or STRV-K is possible, considering the nature of WG. 

 

My own believing basis: Players been complaining about lame VK75 and Cash-walled-703v2 been buzz-killing for 2 years' Advent.

Won't be those. 

 

My guess: Bisonte C45. 2nd choice is Rpz07h but I think that's too niche.

So far Advent Calendar sales offers follow such logic:

 

Sold by Gold
1. Tech-tree premium (water-down-ing the longer list, which spans thru 1 month)

2. Prem Tanks that WG promised "never release again" like mutant/E25 etc
3. Marathon Prem Tanks (past year not current same year release)

4. Any other Prem tanks that sold by cash* (refer to the "not for sale" section)

Sold by Cash: (paywall to control and avoid flooding in numbers maybe)
1. Any Prem tanks that will break the game further if flooded with great numbers. (not without powercreeping)
2. Prem Tanks that released within same year: VK75 (2019), Obj 703v2 (2020), ???? (2021) 

Not for Advent sales: (nor cash nor gold)
1. Prem tanks that involving collaboration contracts such as Primo Victoria/Valkyria Chronicles/STRV-K with 3D styles
2. Prem tanks that released in same year as Holiday Ops event. (Torn/Caliban/122-tm/Skoda-T56/M-IV-Y)
3. Black Market limited prem tanks (this might change over years)

4. Eg: EBR, Defender, Progetto 46, IS-3A, maybe Bourrasque (might give the team Significant Advantage in greater numbers)

The ratio of premium tanks offered should be:
- tech tree prems - 30-40% (pointless imo, wastage of advent slots for further profits)
- rest etc 60-70%

Not really. The 703 ii came out in 2019, had already been sold in the premium shop in mid-2020, but was then the week long deal in the Advent calendar the following year.

DUDE, if you having problem of reading, seek help.

 

Dec 2019 is the holiday OPs 2020 lootboxes. Not released yet in Premium Shop.
The similar way of VK75 is done in Advent year 2019.
Advent Calendar sales usually related on the "Premium Shop" release date instead of as a "surprise" from Lootboxes.
"New tanks" like 703v2 from earlier lootboxes usually for a super hype up for bigger gacha bonanza, of course WG aren't going to putting it in for gold so soon, OBVIOUSLY. (Its not even a full-year from Holiday Ops 2021 lootboxes date to Advent Calendar 2020, Think dude, think.)

Seems you failed your own comprehension.

 

You wrote " released within same year"

 

703 ii was released in 2019. 

 

That is not the same year as 2020.

 

So unlike you, I evidently do think.

Following your nonsense logic, I also can assume a tank is "released" when it is announce in Supertest eh?

Evidently you do think, but sensibility is not there. You just argue for the sakes of arguing to seek attention like a ---

Wait, so you have a strange definition of released? It doesn't mean when it's released to the mass public, and when the bulk of players get them... but only when you can buy it?

 

Yes, such nonsense that "released" means when it is released to players. Who ever heard of such a thing? And you're the one arguing over what released should mean to you, against what it means in normal use, so...
