[2019] Twelfth Season of Ranked Battles: the Results (WG does not give a s....)

Heyo.

Please be aware, the staff get tagged in many posts on a daily basis, once in awhile we miss a post when going through them. If you ever feel like we've missed something don't hesitate to DM us and prompt us for a reply if we've heavily missed something. Please be aware also that it is predominantly the NA Community Team who is available to provide replies: currently that is @Kami, @KARMAT1KA or myself. Many of your previously tagged individuals do not reside on the NA forums in an interaction capacity.

Onto the meat and potatoes of your ask:

For majority of your data points: none of this information has been provided for other seasons, and while Season 12 was the first to experience rentals, there is no ground to provide it for this season. While the inclusion of rentals for ranked was a controversial decision, I can confirm from the data sets that the season experienced similar numbers, interaction as previous seasons, and met the engagement level we expected.

For the other questions (Excluding the top question, data is being pulled from publicly accessibly sites and just crunching the numbers):

Can Wargaming share their thoughts on what (in their view) the reasons might be, that players numbers taking part in Ranked are decreasing every season?

Which ships were the least popular?

What was the most used Rental Ship for Season 12 Rank Battles?

Average amount of players using Rental Ships on teams for Season 12 Rank Battles

Average amount of Carriers per match for Season 12 Rank Battles

How many rental ships for Rank Season 12

Data used for crunching was taken primarily from here.

Eventium - refers to all event activities and their related currencies. Its not another currency lol. Its just a bucket term for them all.
