In my own experience playing the Kv-1E, Panzer 4s are incredibly easy to kill with it, and the panzers have a hard time killing it.
Anything that can reliably kill it is very weak when defending against the Kv-1E. Most TDs are open topped, and most artillery tanks are easy to kill with it as well.
Nah, Panther F is a lot easier to kill because the mantlet is so much smaller. All you really get is a marginally better reload and rangefinder. And the Panthers already are pretty mid at 6.0.
Speak for your self! I monitored 1000 matches for BR’s and I was uptiered 86% of the time to +1br, so I personally would see a hugely more proportion than deserved. lol
Because, most of the time - 4.0 is uptiered, so most of the TD’s heck even the new M44 1 shot kills it from pretty much any angle or distance.!!
Russian/German often face each other, so heavies are included in that but granted many other nations dont have a 4.0 heavy however as stated, the KVs are rarely at their own BR in the first place ( I know 100% for fact as this br is pretty much all I play for the last 10 years!. Now that said, go back say 1-2 years ago and I might (MIGHT) have said yup put it up, but since the introduction of new vehicles I stay strong - no adjustment
again compare to the BT7 - F32 at the same 4.0 BR! lol Same gun, better manouverability, kills KV1s easily - should that go up in BR?
