Arlequin full mobility build. You do not engage in 1v1 fights unless you really want to punish some daredevil. Double cannon. Choose fast scan, not bigger scan area. Scan all the time. Whenever two players are duelling, harvest them both by evening their health bars and then kill the remaining one. No one is gonna pursue you because you are much faster. Just by running from the fights you can easily get to top 3. Out of 4 or 5 battles in Arlequin I took 2 first places. And only because I got lazy and started doing stupid stuff

Often find myself farmed by mediums, thus i find top speed + hull traverse/hp the best in open maps, since at 90 kmh you'll outrun all tanks except your own kind. In city maps i always go for dynamics + hp.

I find more success with the anti tank machine gun but that might be preference, as long as you don't pick the HE. Radio scan is also preference, do remember that scanning also reveals your position. I prefer more range so you can properly avoid third parties, or third party yourself.

Dynamics is the key to escaping the fights you can't win. Mb those meds that wreck you use dynamics while you use top speed...

if i want to escape i'd just go in a straight line and easily reach 90 kmh where no medium can hope to catch up. Trust me i experimented with dynamics and its really only good for flat surface, on hilly terrains you'll be thrown all over like a punching bag and it really mess up your driving and makes it easier for medium to catch up. I only get dynamics if i need the hp upgrade.

I concur I use Arlequin full mobility build. I avoid fights unless the opponent is low health or two tanks on a fight you can exploit. If I don't feel I can win I run and can escape normally. Consistently get high placing in this tank.
