You first need to get to that low-ish speed or remain there.
Also, if you hit uneven terrain nothing will help you.
It’s pretty mobile for a heavy tank, but in general it’s just mediocre.
There are 177 vehicles on rank 6 and IS-7 is in the 77th position (above the average) according games played list so its NOT super easy to inflate it’s stats due to it’s rarity as you say.
it seems it is
the shir 2 is understandable that things amazing but the cheiftain 900 is super unexpected its not that great

IS-7 is 168th out of 177 vehicles in rank 6 when it comes to games played in February.
Same for January.
In December it was 167th.
In November it was 166th.
In October it was 167th.
…
It’s clear it’s one of the least played vehicles at that tier and as such is quite vulnerable to everything I mentioned.

You do understand the IS-7 is an extremely rare tank.
also, holy crap, talk about an disingenuous strawman
If you look at the actual best KDr vehicle, it’s the E100.
That’s how all the IS tanks are.
I’ll trade you my Kv-220 lol. This thing is even worse garbage. It’s my luck that I seemingly always run into a T26E5 when playing it, and I cannot literally do anything to it.
I’d sht my pants far more seeing a Tiger II H, at least you can LFP the E5.
You said that IS-7 has only like 15-30k games per month, which makes it super easy to inflate it’s stats and i showed that it has the best K/D ratio since its existance in the game with above the average games played in rank 6.
That thing was added in 2018, of course it’ll have more games played than some obscure things added in 2022 for example. IS-7 is barely even played, mostly by older players that might even spawn it in cherrypicked situations.
Situation isn’t much different with other extremely rare vehicles too.

Have i disagreed to this?
I disagreed (like RENZO) that its a ‘’ cannon fodder’’ lol!!
where exactly have i mentioned something about E-100 ?
You said the hilarious statement that ‘‘IS-7 is cannon fodder’’ and i showed that according to stats this is utter nonsense.
Are any tanks with better stats than IS-7 ? Ofcourse there are, E-100 is one of them who denied it, i showed IS-7 has the best K/D ratio on Rank 6 (E-100 is RANK 5) that make it anything but a ‘‘cannon fodder’’
Consider all these I have written above and then try to find out which one is the ‘‘disingenuous strawman’’ that cant comprehend things…

Thread about top tier
Look inside
People bickering about a CW vehicle
If the other extremely rare vehicles have as good stats as the IS-7 then surely they are not ''cannon fodders ‘’ too
Depending on how you determine extremely rare vehicle. Especially considering IS-7/279 has been in a lot of gambling box and even some GA event. Stop the cope
I am not the one who spoke first about extremely rare vehicles here or extremely rare vehicles being ‘‘cannon fodders’’ …
Or they’re just controlled by really good players that perform really well in basically anything ?
IS-7 at 8.3 simply doesn’t have the oompf to justify stats like that.
By saying this someone could easily assume that for players like Renzo for example who plays IS-7 ‘‘pretty braindead and his GRB K/D in it is slightly above the overall average at 2.5’’ is something easy but on the other hand there are players (not mentioning names) with serious skill issues that find the same tank a ‘‘cannon fodder’’…lol!!
Yeah the take “IS-7 is a cannon fodder” is bad but that by no mean IS-7 is OP. It is strong sure but it is still a heavy tank at 8.3 . Why are you crying about such a non issue problem ? And the thread is top tier related why keep crying about the IS-7 ?
You have better luck winning the lottery. If they angle, forget it.
But they’re both equally annoying to face, generally though, I have better luck killing a King Tiger, maybe it’s the German player’s lack of skill, or perhaps it’s always the attempt to pen a “weak spot” on a T26E5 and dying due to reload speed, and the thought of thinking I’d pen when I should.
Meanwhile I always go for the barrel snipe on the KT if I’m in anything wit less than 180 pen.
The point I was getting at, is the IS-7 can be easily killed just like the IS-3/4/6 because HeatFS exists.
6.0 M-51s especially are a culprit for annoyance.
A semi skilled player can easily 1 tap, or entirely cripple the IS-7 with one shot.
