I had a game the other day in my FV4005; I was spotted and wiped out by a TVP 50/51 in the first 3 minutes. Such is the life of the Dankmobile driver. It's HUGE, has NO camo and NO armor.
The very next match, I went down the medium line in search of dankness. I found it. - 1 TVP 50/51
I was always reluctant to get the IS-7 but got it last month. It's waaaay better than the stats let on, and it can be fucking hard as hell to dig out if driven by a smart player. It is faster than a lot of TX mediums, has fast reload, and somewhat reliable armor. And...the gun. It's shit on paper, but in practice is amazing. The last game of tonight, I took ten shots. All but two were snap shots, and they hit. 80% hit rate on snap shots. This is common.
It is fast, so I roll up first to most engagement points. Fast travel, fast reload, good damage = solid early game damage. I had almost 2k damage before our mediums even started jerking off.
I hit the cupola of a hull down T30 and sent him back to the garage. This is a hard ask in a lot of my TD's but the IS-7 hits shots like this without trying hard.
It's fun to meet STRV 103B drivers who don't know about overmatch mechanics. The IS-7 has 130MM gun, so it will pen and hit for full damage all the time.
It easily stacks up damage. It is a WN8 padder for sure. This is an average match in it:
Fight #25,000. Me in my Super Hellcat. Mostly even fight on MM and player skill. At one point we were 6-11 and a loss was certain. I had a great arty and I would spot and whistle away. Not an amazing fight on my part, but we came back from a loss and I completed my 25,000th fight with a win.
It's still a fun game. Here's a screenshot of a Ukranian airliner flying into our zone:

This letting idiots borrow tier 10 tanks has utterly fucked up playing at that level. There are people that aren't cut out playing at tier 4 running around in t10 tanks. I have to question why every decision WG makes is a bad decision. I have to work on fixing t10 win rates after this event ends.
