i dont think 5.0 ish player has gain enough braincell to know where to aim at IS-x tank
The churchills exist. Therefore your argument doesn’t hold much weight. They have FAR more armor than the IS2 has for its br. No one is calling churchills OP.
cuz the gun cant pen anything
and its slow
it also has only solid shot

None of which has to do with players struggling to pen it. Which was your argument. The IS2 has 100mm armor turret. No tank at 5.0 struggles with 100mm flat armor. Hell, the SA-50 has 200 pen.
Yes, I also play on a friend’s account who has Germany upgraded to 9.0. At 6.7 it has great firepower, reload time and not to mention the armor, one of the best in this tier, however their mobility is slow, but it has all these other things to compensate.
i looked through TT of most nations at churchill(s) BR, almost all of them has tank that can pen the churchill
Churchill isnt even that armored like you say, churchill actually suffer, it has no pen, its slow and it get easily flanked
do you know 1 tank that struggle to pen 100mm flat armor? Its the Churchill VII at 4.7, which face 5.7 that can pen it
also IS cheek is trolly, which u would get because its curved and volumetric, Churchill doesnt have that much volumetric, because its a box with a box on top
The drivers hatch and mantlet are not large, so unless you are quite close good chance you don’t have a great chance of hitting them, unless the IS2 is idle and just letting you shoot.
The Jumbo 76 has a weak spot like that on the front - should it drop as well?
As for Conqueror and IS3, they are both slow, have slow reload and both have unreliable ammo, which is what I was comparing. The IS3 should also be played in a similar role since the slow turret rotation and long reload makes it a terrible brawler.
Solid shot, just like APDS. It’s not one-shotting the IS2. Ant return fire would obliterate the SA-50.
Holy hell man, your takes are awful. Trying to argue the IS3 should be playing a sniper role? Unreliably ammo on the IS3? Really sounds like you haven’t played them. If you think a 240 pen APHE is unreliable at 7.3 you really just don’t have any round that is.
Jumbos should have dropped ages ago. Panthers can pen the UFP without weak point. Again, we are talking about FULL DOWNTEIR being able to pen a heavy tank. If the weak points weren’t small, the tank WOULDN"T BE EFFECTIVE.
@MrBombastic8 Again, you completely miss the point. Churchill sit at a point in the BR where your argument of low skill should be more prevalent. The Church has WAY more armor for its BR than the IS2/3. Both the IS2 and 3 are pennable by EVERY vehicle at their own br without issue. The comparison is full downteir. 3.0s struggle to pen the church 3 without weakpoint hits. But the vehicle is still awful because… people can shoot weak points. At every BR. The assumption they can’t is just forced ignorance.
Well judging by your posts, sounds like you haven’t played them much - or at least have no clue how to play them
Your opinion is obviously in the minority, so learn how to use the IS3 as it’s supposed to be used.
You would be about as wrong as you could be. 260 games in the conq. 277 in the IS3.
Meanwhile, you have 15 kills, 36 deaths arcade in the conq. 0 in the is3. zero in both in rb. You might want to sit down and stop portraying yourself as understanding the tank in question.
obviously ur the minority because u use his stat

Hes literally the one saying we don’t know how to play 2 tanks that he has no experience in. He plays arcade but comments in RB. Stats are relevant, especially when you are trying to portray yourself as an expert.
Never claimed to be competent in the use of conqueror, so using my stats hardly supports the discussion.
And that does not change the fact the tanks have similarities - heavy tanks, large gun, slow reload, impressive frontal armor.
Maybe if you create a THIRD thread on the subject (this is the 2nd) the change will get made. You never know…
You are literaly trying to say i don’t have experience in the tank to discount my points… while having no experience yourself while i have hundreds of games.
Conq Is NOTHING like the IS3 and you would know that if you actually played it. They are about as different in roles as you can get in this game.
Are you saying you don’t think threads should be posted because they might not influence the game? Then why are you here? Why are you posting?
no dude u literally have no experiences facing IS-3 and stuff
u only play arcade which hardly support this arguement
and u never play around the BR either
how are u level 100
not every tank should be able to kill everything from the front at their respective BRs. Not being able to kill either the most armored american heavy tank or the heaviest german tank of all time is perfectly fine. You’re still really annoying to kill and pretty mobile all things considered. Most tanks shooting HEAT at you are cold wars tanks with paper thin armor compared to you. IS-3 is fine as is.

But for you, it’s okay for an IS1 to face a Tiger 2H head-on and literally not be able to penetrate it in basically any location? Right? (even shooting at the only weak point, which is the machine gun, is difficult to penetrate with its 148mm armor penetration). It seems that you are playing at a level where your nation is very comfortable with great penetration, good reload time and great armor and doesn’t want more competition. A Tiger 1 or Panther has a better chance of destroying an IS3 head-on than a T34-85 or IS1 has a chance of destroying a Tiger 2H, Jagdpanther, Jagdtiger, Ferdnand… But you are totally comfortable and don’t want your favorite nation to have difficulty against other tanks like they themselves suffer against your favorite nation.

No it is not, 7.0 is your ideal and 7.3 should be the IS4.
