Tribulation Wrote:You also can't refer to "pro games" all the time to justify your claims of the imbaness of certain tanks, weapons, and items - the vast majority of all players and games cannot be considered anywhere near "pro", and eliminating all alleged imbaness because a small minority feels it's necessary seems a little over the top, no offense.
I think you miss a certain aspect: The main question we have to ask ourself is "Where is it possible to see if someone wins through imbaness or skill?" Its quite obvious that we have to eleminate the skill factor like a variable in maths by trying to equalise the skill of both players/teams. "How can we find equal skilled players?" - The first negative answer is: "We can't", but we can find nearly equal avarage-temporal skill in so called "pro-games" (i don't like the word "pro" - noone does this professionally) now and then (even at bt-clan players you can find huge gaps between the players, so a real nearly skill-balanced game is quite hard to find). There we might find imbalance. Might? Of course just "might", not will, becouse some strats seem to be temporal imbalanced until someone finds the correct way adepting to it. Only if noone finds such a way for a very long time we are in the position to call it "imbalance".
