T34-1 with no damage. Poke my head around the corner of a building. Good bounce angle. KV2 takes me out with one shot. Is it me or are one shot kills becoming the norm for some tanks especially the KV2? I hate short games.LOL

Poking to a KV-2 and getting deleted is entirely your own fault

Didn't even know he was there

with 1100 HP on the T-34-1 the KV-2 has to roll exceptionally high with his HE shells to kill you in one shot unless he ammo racks you. The ammo rack on most Chinese tanks is pretty shoddy, so you should expect to get blown up every now and then, but for the most part, being one-shotted isn't really common.

Thanks for the honest and useful comment. They are rare. Have a good day.

KV-2s have gotten me a few times.  it happens. Your teammates have to spot him or you risk it

At tier 6, I'm always watching for when any Kv-2 are spotted on the map. I'm super careful if there's one out there unspotted. KV-2 regularly and one shot kills have always been a norm, especially of you're able to get a clean shot at a light or medium tank.

 

The only other tank I watch out for as much as the KV-2 is the 183. Even the Borsig or Isu-152 doesn't bother me quite so much, as it's a couple tiers higher and my armor will be that much better.

Whenever KV2 turns its turret and tries to stare at me, it just looks like a stupid tank to me ... besides starring at people, what can it do?

Good luck with that

Kv2 only hopes people will stare it back ... only noobs (mt) do that.

exactly. The only people who fear kv2s are bad players, and people who don't know its there. Nothing you can do against a kv2 that is trying to snipe in the back and gets a lucky hail mary shot on you that you didn't know about. Any good player is going to go "ok, let it shoot, then just gank the useless thing... same with a kv1s. Shoot, then gank. Isn't difficult.

I still get 1-shot by KV-2s occasionally, but it's much more rare than it used to be and almost always because I made an easily identifiable mistake.

 

I got a little revenge the other day, when I 1-shot a full health KV-2 with my KV-1S. It felt damn good.

Outstanding Fu. Gives me a goal!!!

I find it much more common to see tanks with 1 hp after being nailed by a derp gun. That is way more fishy to me than kv-2’s 1 shotting a tank. I have 1 shot a Comet in my kv-2. Talk about needing a high damage roll.

[EolSunder1]

haha very nice. It usually takes me 2 shots to kill the kv2 unless I can hit it from the side/back to ammo rack it, but its also much easier to hit the kv2 2 times with a kv1s than hit a kv1s with a kv2, especially across the map.
