Tier 10 question on general quality, WR and MM.

Ok so, I have been playing WoT for almost 8 years on and off and have around 23000 games.

Maybe only 500 matches at tier 10. Though I have unlocked many I just avoided it for a long time due to enjoyment at 8-9. Recently I have been trying to play some 10 to enjoy all of these tanks I’ve unlocked and I’m really struggling. Matches collapse in an instant and it’s ALWAYS my team. My winrate was 33% over nearly 50 games with an average damage of 2000. I was generally one of the last alive but felt within 1 minute the match was decided and at this point I’m in damage control, trying to get what I can and being overwhelmed within about minute or so by a wave of tanks. Often teams with a chief or 279 did win.

Is this just the experience at 10? Am I the common factor in my 33% win ratio?!

I have an overall 52% win ratio with a current WN8 of 2000. I just want to know from those who play tier 10… how do you play it well?!
