IS spam. I currently do not like IS tanks your choice though on whether you want to keep WG in business. I like playing the game so go for it.

However it’s pretty weak for folks who can aim and exploit its weaknesses.

not compared to the UFP, as the universe is (supposedly) too big to explore all of. rather large LFP, but bigger UFP. it could also be described as an IS-5 on steroids.

I don't have it, but I do think it's overrated. It was originally sold for $49 I think. It's claim to fame is that the upper plate and turret have some almost unpennable armor. If it's properly positioned hull down nobody can ever pen it. But it's doesn't have much gun depression, and it's a russian gun anyway, and it's slow as molasses. It's not easy to get a perfect hulldown position where the reds are sitting in front of you, if you aren't hull down you have a truly massive and easily pennable lower plate, and if the red has any mobility at all he'll hit your sides and rear. The sides are just as troll as any other IS tank, you have to hit the right spot, but it's the same spot as the other dozen IS-whatevers.
Edited to add: It also still has a stupid pike nose. Your higher penetrating guns will still pen the pike if you get a flat shot on it.

It's killable, Unless you have a truly experience player at the helm.
Then it's tough.

It's a very good tank. Yes, as Cru says, experienced players can take advantage of its weaknesses. But the vast majority of players are trash, so that's not a major concern for 252U drivers.
Wrecker points out that it's killable. All tanks are killable. In pub battles, the 252U is less killable than most other tier 8s.
But, it is also more IS spam. Good tank, decent price.

Doesn’t matter if the pike is flat because the angle is so servers it’s almost auto bounce

Don't play the game anymore. If you see me online, it is most likely someone else playing. I'm back
