Hi I just got this in my battle notifications and I have no idea why I got it, something about winning 4 times in a row lol. Is this just simple marketing to make me buy stuff or is this achievement really that uncommon?

Here is a photo.

Edit: Translation: Congratulations commander! You have just won your fourth victory in an epic series of victories! This unique accomplishment doesn't happen often and therefore you deserve to be recognized! In honor of your fantastic accomplishment we offer you a unique coupon to your next purchase in the premium shop. Spoil yourself, you really earned it!

Might be better posted in a language section where people can read it.

There is no language section for my language but I will just edit and add a translation then :)

And? No one says you have to use it. They have been giving them out randomly for "good" battles or when you get medals etc for years. Not used a single one myself, but I suspect some do. Considering the % of players that actually spend money on this game, it's not aimed for everyone as is vs the few that actually cares. As most things are.

I got my ''epic battle'' reward from a training room battle yesterday. 15% off in premium shop. :D

There's nothing implied at all.

 

It was straight up advice.  You don't have to use the coupon.

  In your post you said  'to make me buy stuff'

 

Balc0ra is telling you that you do not have to buy stuff..

He said "is this to make me buy stuff" which is a question. This seemed like a genuine question by OP and the first answer he got was "And?" 

 

Dont panic, forum working as usual.

They can say that again. The chances of someone getting even a semi-competent team 4 times in a row and actually winning each time are truly an epic achievement in WOT today. You deserve more than a measly coupon, you deserve an all expenses covered trip to Cyprus and a tour of WG HQ followed by a party with classy ladies that look like models and maybe they sometimes are.

If the chances of one or both teams being semi-competent these days are lower than they used to be, the statistical consequence is that currently it never has been easier to get a streak for anyone over average.

By "unique coupon" do they mean a coupon that you can use to get a discount on something that you actually need?

Never, they only want you to buy those things you do not want.

Not valid for toilet paper, pasta, or hamster wheels.

The response was not 'and?' it was much more than that and you know it.

In my experience,  «unique coupon» means «generic coupon we give out to hoardes of people to tempt them into buying stuff they dont want or need».
