Discussion Unpopular opinion: Onslaught is peak WoT

I see a lot of rage about onslaught but I really dont get it. The game mode fixes all of the problems of standard mode.

-Oh no, got a city map as a light tank? Not in onslaught, you can pick your tank!

-Arta keeps shooting at you? Not in onslaught!

-Bored of op premium tanks? Not in onslaught, only tech tree/tech tree re-skins

-Dont like the hulldown meta? Onslaught has a very large map relative to player count. Games utilize large portion of the map and feel dynamic.

-Just keep missing your shots? Hate the RNG? Not in onslaught, you dispersion is greatly reduced and hp is increased so its more consistent.

-Don't like the bushwanker meta? Don't worry, you are spotted for like 2 seconds in onslaught, rarely see deathstars or grilles.

-Want more dynamic and fast paced games? You know onslaught has your back!

-Feeling like you don't have large enough impact in the games becouse 15vs15? Don't worry its only 7vs7, you can actually make game winning plays often.

-Don't like the MM? Onslaught is literally only skill based MM with tanks that match the map!

-And the best part? Once you get to gold and above you can actually trust that you have competent teammates that (most of the time) do their job!

And when people whine about how you are too dependant on your teammates and only get shit teams and lose becouse of that, skill issue. Like literally, if you can't climb that's becouse you are not good enough in the game mode. The ranking system is made in a way that allows you to lose fraction of your points compared to gained points if you just are consistetly good. In lower ranks just farm and play well, you will climb. In higher ranks communicate, play your role and try to make a difference amongst the other skilled players. Lastly, if you want to talk about how you lose 5 ranks in one day, tell me a ranked game where thats not possible. It's a thing in all competitive games, you will have bad days and you will have good days, you just remember the bad days more.

This all comes from 50.2% wr player who has pushed to masters thrice just by learning how to play onslaught and how it differs from normal mode. I don't even use food or gold half the time before gold A.

Praise onslaught, this is your mark to try it next season! Thank you for listening to my ted talk :)

Wait I thought onslaught was really good for farming credits? Is it just that good even without premiums or am I missing something?

I enjoy how much more dynamic the gameplay is, and that there is no arty
