Yes, but heed my warning lol, if you play stupidly, you will win stupid prizes 😂 Just expect to die a LOT while you are learning how to play it properly 👍 Might take 100+ matches for you to “git gud” with it. Just don’t stress if you play poorly with it initially.
I love sweating at games

quite literally the best IS heavy tank that you can get if you dont know the stats dont talk only better one is IS7 and im not recommending him to spend 2k$
T34-85 part is a fine tank but you can easily get way farther in the tree with IS6
Also, the IS-7 isn’t even a premium. Can’t grind down to Rank 1 👎 @Wolfgang_Schmitt and if you didn’t know, adding a talisman to a non premium vehicle will NOT allow it to grind down to Rank 1 with increased efficiency either. Only premium vehicles get that bonus. So, if you do want to “skip” any lower Rank vehicles, has to be a premium vehicle (gold color background.) Squad vehicles also do NOT get that bonus.

And if I were to spend that much in the first place wouldn’t the obj. 279 be a better option?
2S38, T-72AV TURMS, T-80UD, BMD-4M are good options for all type of player.
Rush —> T-80UD and T-72AV TURMS
Support all team —> 2S38 and BMD-4M
Just for u —> 2S38 and T-72AV TURMS very good options for solo players.
Ah… nah, i get out.

Obj 279 is not a premium 😉 Useless for grinding the low tiers. Ignore it. Better off getting premiums around 10.3-10.7 if you are going to spend money, and want something high BR/Rank.
i know the point was thats its the best russian tank for its br
the IS6 is a very good vehicle its a better version of the IS4M as it doesnt have a massive drivers port weak spot
Does it play like the begleitpanzer at all?
no its a leo 1 at higher tier tams are kinda mid at there tiers cause there 105s still workable
T-34-100 is by far my favourite of the three. Fast, powerful gun, decent reload. armour is poor though

T-34-100. Good mobility and good gun. What more do you need?
Some have talked about T-34-85 being better at its BR, yeah but why buy prem version when there is free one at the tech tree? I mean sure if you want to just grind SL and like 85 then go for it.
I have T-34-100 and I like it, IS-6 ain’t bad but far from glory days when it came out with 400mm mantlet armor. Also there is lot more HEAT slingers around so at the end of they day you’re IS-3 that is faster and has slightly better reload.
Can’t say much about T-44-122. Friend has it and seems to do really well in it.
Wasn’t the is 6 6.7 back in the day?
7.0 I’m pretty sure.
Damn that was 1.67 8 years ago. I feel old
They are all somewhat lacklustre. T34-100 has awesome gun but lacklustre armor for its BR. T44-122 has awesome gun but absolutely atrocious reload time. (Tech tree t44s are way more effective due to that). IS-6 has good armor, good mobility for a heavy tank but suffers from the same reload time problem and heavy tank syndrome (Armor in uptiers doesnt mean much while having the slower than average mobility due to its weight). Yeah, dont play heavy tanks in uptiers when 70% of matches are uptiers is great.
Still if you want any of those 3 id opt for the IS-6. But depends what playstyle you prefer.
If you want something actually strong get the TO-55 (though that comes with a higher price tag i guess). Lowest BR fully stabilized Russian tank (together with obj 906), and as a t55 it has quite decent mobility. Plus (if that wasnt changed) its the highest BR tank for russia in that sim bracket and one of the only tanks at its bracket with full stabilizer (while ofc having basically heavy tank armor to most of the conventional shells youre facing, especially if you manage to angle)
How do you feel about the object 120? Because that has been my favorite Russian vehicle sense yes
Unfortunately i dont have it myself but yeah you could consider that if you like it. awesome gun, awesome ammo but not that good gun handling and annoying to brawl with because insanely long gun (also no armor). Probably still more effective than the t44-122 due to much better reload (23s fully aced on a medium tank with bad reverse is just doodoo). On longer range maps im quite sure the obj 120 is very nice because you can lolpen almost everything you can see on a gun which is easy af to aim bc of apfsds muzzle velocity (no bullet drop)
so it would kinda play like a leopard
i guess yeah. With better ammo but worse gun handling and ofc worse gun depression angles. also worse mobility, just strictly sniping end boss
it hits you, you die
