All of this dick waving about stats and who "should win" really doesn't mean shit in-game.

If you're a better player, you CAN win 80% of the time unless you have a run of bad luck or you're hopelessly outmatched.

I can't tell you how many times I came face to face with (and beaten) tanks that, by all rights, should have left me in the dust as a smoking hulk.
StuG III vs a Ferdinand at full health, anyone?
KV-3 killing a MiniMaus?

It's more likely than you think- outmaneuvering or outsmarting someone, or them simply making an idiotic mistake can lead to serious upsets.

I can't tell you how many times a US heavy has essentially presented his side hull armor to me and suffered the consequences. The MiniMaus died to my KV3's 122mm because he exposed the side of his turret at nearly point blank range, and the Ferdi just wasn't paying the hell attention to the fact that I was behind him.

Stats do help, but they certainly aren't everything.

Not sure how much I dig the JagdPz's slower movement... but when I get the 88 on it perhaps I will appreciate the increased damage.

What I should concentrate on for my secondary after the softwipe?... mainly I've just dabbled in a bunch of random things and not really thrown a mountain of EXP at anything other than German TD. I'm thinking Russian heavy?
