Before I start, let me explain I am a new player, been here since March 2017, spent far too much time in PvE (500 battles), but have made the right decision now to play nothing but PvP (60+ battles and counting).   As a new player up to T4 has been pretty easy with the protected MM. Moving into T5 has been a really big step change, new maps, new more powerful foes, and many more experienced players. Don't get me wrong it's fun, a hell of lot of fun, but I feel like its a different game with new rules, and I have so much to learn.Hopefully I'm up to the challenge   In the last few days I have been weighed, I have been measured, and I have been found wanting. It's what I expected, but I am slowly getting the hang of it and my clan mates are a huge help,   Now to the real point of the post. There is a lot of talk about player quality in the game, I think we all want good close hard fought games, then it doesn't matter if you win or lose, you know you have had a damned good fight and a huge amount of fun along the way, and that's the point of WOWS isn't it ?    As a new player just moving into T5 I can see a huge temptation to push through T5 and get to the higher tiers as quickly as possible. The logic behind that being, I'm in a T5 facing T6 & 7, if I was T6 and 7 I would do better, the ships are better.   That logic is hugely flawed. Any ship be it T1 or T10 is only as good as the person driving it. Thinking you can simply get into a bigger boat and do better is wrong. I actually think you will do worse and piss your team mates off along the way. That message also applies to premium ships. Don't think you can buy one and do better because it's premium, it must be better. I've only got one premium the T3 Kaiser Albert. She's not really any better or worse than other T3's, she is just 'a bit different'.   I really really want to get a Bismark, that is my first big target that I am aiming for. However I'm taking it slow and steady to get there, so I can enjoy her to her fullest potential when I finally get her. If I do badly in her, it's my fault not hers.   What do you guys think?
