I. Do. Not. Like. It.
My worst Tier 8 experience in all of my Blitz career, up until the past week or so, has been a tier between the Pre-Buff Glacial and T28 (not Proto, regular one). Both were pretty bad, but the latter may have been even worse since I played it during the days of -2/+2, and Tier 10s were its absolute bane.
Now there is another contender for the top spot on the list of absolute €&@¥. Strangely enough, there are actually good things about this TD here. The only problem is, they are completely outweighed by the bad. I mean, on paper you get the IS-8/IS-4/ST-1 gun mounted on a Tier 8. And it's kinda fast. Sounds like a good combo, right?
Except...
...for the very narrow gun arc, which makes aiming at moving targets fifteen times harder...
...and the Russianlike gun handling does nothing to help this...
...and the dpm isn't that high in comparisson to the other tier 8 TDs...
...but the armor is pretty darn weak...
...and the small hit pool makes it even worse...
...and the lack of gun depression is the most depressing thing about this whole tank.
Absolute trash. I've had a couple decent games in it. But there are four or five mediocre to very bad (usually the case of the latter) in between each of them. Terrible TD, leaves bleak prospect for the su122-54 if this is what to expect.
