If you are playing mostly LTs (Light Tanks), 2-3 tier spread is not unusual... play more HT (Heavy Tank), that's more likely to get top tier in battle... didn't u have a Japanese Tiger VI premium tank? that thing gets to be top tier more than others in my exp.
BTW, platoon with someone will most likely get you positioned low on the totem pole.
Since v9.14 new physics update, I've seen lots of tanks stuck on its side.. unable to get back onto its tracks; mostly fast, mobile LTs.
Some occur right by the spawn, stuck ally unable to contribute for most of the battle time.
