the Jagdtiger would be near unplayable at 7+.
The only really strongpoint it has which its great frontal armor would be useless, (hell i just killed a jagdtiger frontally with a M41A1 which is 6.3), and you will just have a slowass block on metal for target practice for all the modern stuff.

I have killed a jagdtiger in a 5.3 challenger does that mean it should go down? 250 mm armor without weakspots is too strong. It’ll be workable at 7.0, terrible but workable, just like the tortoise at 6.7, coz as it stands almost everything can pen a tortoise, but can you say that about a jagdtiger? No. But a better solution would be moving the tortoise down to it’s previous br of 6.3, it still has counterplay there by almost anything because of it’s cupola and flat mg port and mantlet, the transmission is also relatively easy to disable. Moving the tortoise down will make it a bit competitive while the jagdtiger can stay where it is for all i care. Tortoise is kinda a breath of fresh air of different playstyle gone stale on a terrible tech tree where vehicles range from average to unplayable. I just want a fun tank that i can fall back to in rough times, which the current tortoise is really not. It can face 7.7 stuff which it has absolutely no business facing coz even in a down tier things can pen it reliably so u might as well be a free kill with ur solid shot of mediocre 250 pen at 7.7.
you just proved my point, thank you.
The Jagdtiger isn’t that hard to kill if you know how and raising it’s BR would make take away the only thing it got going for it, it’s frontal armor.
and i fully agree with you about the Tortoise, unless it got a downtier, that thing is having a rough time and it should have a little degrees in BR. i love TDs but i never touch that thing, it just feel like punishment most of the time.

Nonono… Killing and easily killing are 2 different things. It took the whole team pounding, taking tracks and barrels to kill that thing. And as per your statements i can kill a 12.0 mbt in a tier 1 spg… Ahh it’s not that hard to kill mbts it needs balancing let’s move them to 1.0. But I’ll give u that, jagdtiger is barely staying at 6.7 but it is staying for now until decompression hits.
Also armor is not the only thing it’s got, it’s got a massive 600+ g TNT shell with 270+ pen that only talks about vaporising stuff. Armor and firepower combo is pretty deadly. Barely 6.7 but its stays for now ig.
You mean killing the Jagdtiger?
I thought this topic wasn’t about the jagdtiger?
No thanks, its fine at 6.7. This post just tells me you are too inexperienced at this BR.

if the whole team is pounding on it’s front and noone can figure out how to shoot the right place, yes, then its hard to kill.
It got 80 mm armor on the side and back, even angled shots can kill it easily.

It just means that they don’t really know what they are doing.

Can you read after that? Multiple posts after that one. Nope. I’m gonna pick this post and yepp I’m gonna point this stuff out. TORTOISE AND JAGDTIGER AT 6.7? that’s the topic of the post. I’m hitting my limit of patience here lol.
It was sinai map and it’s really very easy to comment like a know-it-all when u don’t know what happened in the game. All it takes is: type “skill issue” and sent… Haha I’m so cool and skilled. No you are not.
Hard to do the flanking stuff when you can’t get on the side yeah. I agree the side is easy to pen but that’s in a vacuum. If you can get you allies to cover flanks then it’s a different story yeah?
If You can’t kill Jagdtiger with whole team trying to, then that is a skill issue.

Does that matter?
U r getting something wrong here. It is not a whine post after one game of getting stomped by a jagdtiger coz of my skill issue. I’m not a german main u see. It is an objective comparison. It was never about me facing the jagdtiger and then crying about it. I can deal with those things albeit with difficulty. It is about the disparity between the tortoise and jagdtiger.
So Tortoise having faster withdrawal speed, twice as good reload is so bad that it should be lower?

Have you even read the comments lol. Do i really have to list all of the stuff for you specifically. Nah not interested. U r right. Ur win. I’m wrong. Good?
You mean the main post suggesting moving Jagdtiger to 7.0 when already vehicles at 5.7 don’t struggle with penning it frontally?
Or are we talking about this comment?
If yes, then again:

If reverse speed and reload was it’s main attractions it should have been designated a light tank. It’s main focus is armor and firepower.
Firepower: inferior to jagdtiger
Armor: inferior to jagdtiger
Speed: inferior to jagdtiger ( jagdtiger has better power to weight ratio and better top speed)
