Far from the only way to deal with them effectively.

It’s not a secret many people use CAS as crutches.
They just use those “camper, overpowered spots” arguments to justify their unsportsmanlike killing.

Many people would consider sniper/camper kills as unsportsmanlike killing. This is too subjective.

It is the most effective way of dealing with them.
You had a chance to fight back against that sniper/camper.
Your chances of fighting back against a plane 10km+ away is pretty much nonexistent.

Not the only one so you definitely don’t need CAS to bring them down.

It’s still the best tool, and greatly aids with balancing.
It is not, please stop trying to justfiy Your skill issue

BR is there for vehicle balancing, not some vehicle type that is completely optional to the mode itself.
Don’t forget proper map & objective design that minimizes forced interaction and mindless CQB with actual options and choices beyond “front towards the enemy.”
That too would be an excellent source of balancing for heavies vs mediums. One’s forced to commit, other’s flexible and can just say “Yeah, no.” and go do another objective.

BR can’t solve all balance issues. CAS greatly aids in balancing as it levels the playing field.
Ground vehicles are balanced around other ground vehicles, otherwise Maus could be at 2.0

Totally optional vehicle type can’t solve any balancing issues.
As ULQ said, ground vehicles are balanced between themselves, so no need for external “balancers”.

There are very few instances in the game where heavy tanks are not at the mercy of faster, more agile vehicles with more modern weapons that can pen the thick armor that makes the heavies slow and easy targets. The outlier usually occurs earlier in the ranks when a Churchill or some such tank meets opponents that can’t pen their armor.
For the most part, the “rat” tanks can drive circles around tanks like Tiger 2 and carry weapons that can pen their upper glacis plate.
CAS is NOT needed AT ALL to “balance” heavy tanks.

??? So I guess Jumbo v.s Tiger 2 is extremely balanced then
Needed? No.
Helpful? Very.
You understand how uptiers work?
If both heavies could eaisly destroy each other frontally it would mean that they should be at the same B.R.
I don’t see a problem there that BR can’t easily solve already. Planes don’t even need to spawn at all, so making your balancing decisions based on that vehicle type is ridiculous.

Guess what, uptiers are always going to exist, BRs can’t fix that.
CAS is the perfect way to level the playing field
