[Tournament] Tank Academy Week #2 - Map Awareness

Welcome to the Tank Academy, a weekly digest of upcoming tournaments, competitive in-game activities, and fun content that you won't want to miss.

We're sure everyone can agree that map awareness is something that's sorely lacking in most Random Battle matches – especially in your own team members. Check out the guides and videos below, and take the first step to becoming part of the solution instead of the problem!


Current Activities

  • The hotly-anticipated Global Map Winter Event, Soldiers of Fortune, begins on 21 January! Don't miss your chance to earn Bonds, cool tank camo, and even a shiny new T95/FV4201 Chieftain. Get more details here!

There's No Map Like the Minimap

A mantra that everyone should have printed out and stuck to their monitor where they won't miss it!

  • WGL team RUN's guides to popular tournament maps Himmelsdorf and Mines – don't leave home without these.
    [Player-created content, articles]
  • How to read the Minimap (English only) – a simple guide to using one of the most important tools in the game.
    [Player-created content, article]
  • How (not) to rush the beach on Overlord (English only, but self-explanatory) – this is Hammer. Hammer pays attention to the minimap. Hammer finishes the game with 8 kills. Be like Hammer.
