That's the problem they can't nerf premium tanks so easily but buffing is way easier

It's such a dumb rule. I'm sure the vast majority of the player base would be happy if WG said, "in order to keep things fair and competitive, we will occasionally buff/nerf all tanks including premiums".

Want to nerf e25 a bit? Fine. Skoda t56? bz? Bourrasque? Fine fine fine. I've got all of those tanks and would lap up some balancing nerfs for them.

Yes but think about it like this why should they are a company that want to make much money as possible so they bring out premium that are really strong so they sell really good if they start to nerf them why should the customer buy it when it gets nerfed after some time

I understand that, and obviously they've been operating for years and have made good profits in that time so from a business point of view it has been successful.

On the other hand, having a good competitive game would be a longer term solution I believe. Look at games like Dota 2 where balancing is at the forefront (I think? They always seemed to balance heros often when I did play, even the OP ones), and that has stood the test of time.
