What is your favourite tier?

What is your favourite tier and why?

[inkedsoulz]

T10

[Ubertron_X]

Starting with T5 anything but T10

 

Edit: Forgot to tell why, so here it is. I really do consider T10 to be the "absurd" tier in WoT as well as in WoWs. Cruisers have absurd DPM, battleships have absurd alpha and maneuverability, you get the idea...

[PeteEarthling]

T2.

No CV, no subs, no gimmicks, no camping.

[Prophecy82]

T9

So many great ships there. Also least populated with CVs. 

 

You find many great ships at T10, too but I just cant stand the windowlicking playerbase there. 

 

Actually most Tiers are fun, starting at T4. Yet I tend to stay away from T10 (see above) and T7 (the power-gap between T7 and T9 can be quite frustrating). 

[CapnGebs]

I mostly sail British destroyers. When you go above tier 6 you start to encounter more and more radar ships. It gets to the point where I am virtually perma-spotted by hydro, radar or planes if I want to get torpedoes away.

 

I find that if I go below tier 5 it is far more common for teams to just charge at the enemy or caps and the games are less strategic. I can be capping and holding a flank only to find the other flank has crumbled. I'm nowhere near good enough to carry games in this sort of situation.

[Tanaka_15]

was t7, after they messed it up it would be t8 or t9. T10 is THE WORST in game. 

[dommo77]

From tier V up, I think tier VI is my favourite with IX very close to it. Not a big fun of tier X, mostly due to meta, tier VII has great ships but MM is not very kind to it. 

[tocqueville8]

T9-10

 

Because you don't get s**t on by worse players who happen to be driving some ship that completely outclassed yours.

 

The BB overmatch mismatch between T5-6 and T7-8 doesn't repeat, unless you're facing a Yamato hull.

That makes angling more rewarding.

 

Also, cruisers get a heal on all lines, which makes playing them a bit less of a survival horror...

[Nibenay78]

T9 - most interesting ships. I really wish some of them had T10 versions.

[Margin_Walker]

9 for most of the reasons already mentioned. Some great ships (especially dds), can't be double up tiered and fewer CVs

[Spartan_Renegade]

IX,   I have many favorites at that tier and MM is usually comfortable.   

[RenamedUser_92906789]

Used to be T5, than T7 ... T10 doesn't get up tiered.

 

But tbh, bad sheet is present at all tiers.

[Bindolaf_Werebane]

I'd have to say tier X. So many good ships (or ships I enjoy) sit at tier X. To mention a few: Montana, Des Moines, Venezia, Minotaur, Worcester, Shimakaze, Harugumo, Daring, Hakuryu, FDR (I know, shut up ).

 

Tier IX is a close second, it is marred by its absolute crap cruisers, though. I love the DDs. Fletcher is just so good, Kitakaze, Jutland, Yugumo (TRB). I am about to buy Chung Mu and it being a Fletcher (I think?) I am totally looking forward to it.

 

Tier VIII is... ok. Anything below, no. Nope. Nein. Nyet. Nej. Ohi. F. that. If it's not terrible MM, it'll be seal clubbers or three man tryhards. Nope.

[Verblonde]

It varies a bit with ship and/or class, but in general:

• T10 (even though I probably have no business there) is my favourite, as you're less vulnerable to the vagaries of MM, and it's impossible to face CVs two tiers higher than you. I also have no excuses; if it all goes horribly wrong, I can't claim it was because I was uptiered etc.
• That said, I have quite a few favourite ships at other tiers, especially T9 and T8; that's probably due to DDs often uptiering quite well (especially sneaky ones), apart from the whole CV thing. That's more about particular ships than the tiers though.

Of course, my answer does vary over time, and does rather depend on how recently I found myself bored stupid in a T10 camp-fest...

T9    Great premium ships. Least populated with CVs

In my case it is not one tier, but the range of T5 - T7

[Pururut]

I enjoy playing tier 5 the most. It lies right in that sweet spot where there is enough variety without much complexity. Kamikaze and Fujin clubbers are a bit annoying but that is alright as it is more of a playerbase problem than a ship problem.

[MimosA_A]

As with WoT, tier 9 seems to be the sweetspot. Good MM, not always top tier, interesting ships, no CV's at the same tier.

 

I'd like to play more low tiers, as there's some really cool ships at tier 4, 5 and 6, but the gameplay is just...

T6-7

The golden tiers

Its much more fun and dynamic down there.

[BLUB__BLUB]

T6-7-9, some 9. Too bad you often get uptiered from T8. But the middle tiers is where the most fun is. 

 

High tier = same brain (or lack of it) with bigger clubs. 

 

[Aethervoxx]

I'm not sure which tier is my favourite but I ended up picking T2 for a couple of reasons;

1) You will never see the farce garbage reworked CVs.  If you play T3+,  you might see a farce garbage reworked CV.

2) I do really well (I'm not saying how) with an Emden   (58%) and a V-25  (55%) (this DD is 'FUN' to play).

[MementoMori_6030]

T10 in coop, T8 in convoy, T6/7 in operations, T2 in randoms... 

[Sir_Sinksalot]

I'd guess T6 mainly, because it's the most featured Ops tier along with a T7 to a lesser extend because it's just featured once in Ops.

 

After that my "favorite tier" is actually heavily determined by the game modes on offer and only the game modes that are somewhat balanced and fair, aka. same tier MM. So that will be T8 with Convoy at the moment, T6 with Ranked at the moment, whatever tier Brawl features as and so on and so forth. It fluctuates as these game modes change tiers and of course I also enjoy just about any tier when it comes to completing missions and events via Co-op since in Co-op you can enjoy playing any ship you fancy really and it won't be "found out" for the weak ship it might be compared to other same tier offerings etc.

[undutchable80]

Tier 6 (and 7) Lots of historical ships & Operations to play
