Sometimes even better:

Though most of the times its rather on par as you said.

Minor nations’ premiums performing better might suggest that a lot of experienced players are grinding minor nations with premiums to simply storm past all the copypaste.
I started grinding China a week or so ago, and I wish I had Al-Khalid to do the same thing with basically all of China under 8.7 due to excess of boring, copypaste vehicles acting as a filler.

i will secede the exelcior it is far superior to the KV-1 variants and very undertiered, however the ZIS-5 gun is god tier and will always beat a QF 75mm until it gets its rightful TNT filler to M61 or the pzgr composite shell
better armour and comet mobility, it should be 4.7.
We filled the explosive cavity with concrete, as APHE in reality didnt do much at all (APHE if it was modelled accurate would have no noticable improvement over solid shot until you get to stupid big bores).
we saw it as a waste of good explosive.
it does 30mph, as a heavy tank, pretty much everywhere.
only the hull MG against the zis-5. only things that make it worried is another undertiered tank, PZ IV with the long 75mm
fuji players are massive tryhards tbf
I wouldn’t say that. The tank is just incredibly forgiving and has a incredibly low skill floor, so its easy for noobs to do well, which is most of Fuji players.
The extreme ROF and good mobility give it the lowest skill floor of the BR (bar BMPT) true.
doesnt stop japan mains being dedicated to their tanks
The mg port is as trolly as the t26e5 thou
the mantlet is easier to go for tbh. but at that point just barrel and track them
I think I’ve died the most to a bomb or the side hill hatches.
Nothing else seems to kill me frontally unless it’s a Pz.4 or vk 30 (cheat tank)
plus youre playing britain. Solid cluster of your team will be competent and other than in a full uptier against italy, there is a zero chance of seeing a 17pdr, which would have demolished you without a second thought.
the PZ IVH&J should be 4.3 not 3.7 and the VK30 and panther D should be 5.7. those guns on those platforms it too OP for such low BRs. Germany eats good from having such trash players dragging things into low BRs
I dunno about the Brit players. I got matched with USA and the French most games. I pretty much was the only one with a positive KDr most matches.
And yes, that’s why I bumped those tanks in my list of proposed brs.
It is placed on the 1st position with best K/D ratio and Object 279 on the 2nd place (despite it was BR upgraded ) on Rank 6 …LOL!!

And after them are two pretty bad SPAAs with 3 KD Ratio. I mean it looks like faulty statistics
He uses Arcade… but tbf the GRB stats aren’t much different.
the cheiftain 900 is that high???
IS-7 is really that easy to play. I play it pretty braindead and my GRB K/D in it is slightly above the overall average at 2.5.
I play the IS-7 how people describe top tier Russian MBT playstyle: turn brain off, just push forward, use minimal situational awareness, goof around a lot.
I think that ease of play comes more from it’s rarity and people having no idea where to shoot it for optimal results. It’s a vehicle without stabilization, pretty poor reload speed and gun depression with mediocre mobility.
As for the stats, IS-7 in general has only like 15-30k games per month, which makes it super easy to inflate it’s stats due to it’s rarity (and mostly older, more experienced players having/playing it due to it being a 2018 event vehicle). I wouldn’t be surprised in the slightest to learn most of those games played were in cherrypicked downtiers to club AP slingers.

Even without a stabilizer the gun just barely moves at lowish speed.
For what it is it actually has pretty decent mobility. The reverse speed is especially decent for a Soviet/Russian vehicle.
