From my experience the Tiger is not on par with the IS-2 right now. The advantages don't seem to outweigh the disadvantages, especially now after the Blitzkrieg nerf.
And you only consider advantages and disadvantages only when Tiger is put against IS-2 and nothing else, right?
Well surprise:
Tiger isn't there to fight IS-2 exclusively, so stop making comparisons like that.
USF sherman also looses to P4, I suppose we should buff USF sherman even thou its much more powerful against infantry, but garden that, only sherman vs P4 matters and sherman looses that which is unacceptable, right?
Same with SU-85 vs JP4, I suppose we should now keep adressing SU-85 buff. OR jackson vs JP4, JP4 wins that easily, Jackson needs buff.
Silly argument?
Why?
Its being used constantly with tiger and IS-2.

I love how apparently to relic there was no other ace tankers during the war but tiger ones.
Its probably because most people love the look of Tigers, but having a Panther ace would be interesting to have ^^

Are serious? Is2 have poor accuracy firing on infantry, tiger is better in that way. Is2 is balanced, it's good at tank but bad infantry killer. Tiger is worth in at way, but in killing infantry it is much better than is2.

Why do you imply things when you have no clue? No, I don't only consider the direct engagement.

"you" in my post was more like general player, not "you" specifically even though the post might have indicated so. Too many people compare them on 1v1 against each other basis and judge the balance on that, which is plain wrong approach.

Also ignoring the fact that IS2 is much more likely to pen the Tiger than the Tiger an IS2.

Ok. I don't disagree on this point.

Larger AoE means shit if unit can't hit anything.
Not to mention you went full retard and used the argument that already was explained 10 times why it is bad and can't be used.

You don't even have the slightest idea on how that "slightly" more scatter value transfers on the units performance, why are you even trying to respond in this thread?

I didn't read the thread considering I could see were it was going, but the Pak40 only has 10 more pen than the ZiS so it's not like you have some great AT advantage as Ostheer if you went Tigers.
And yes it only has slightly more scatter, but larger AoE. Ost only has 4 man squads making 1 shots far, far easier to pull off than against Soviets who have 6 men squads.
EDIT: lol if your seriously going to suggest Panthers give you an advantage if you went Tigers, nobody does T4 when they are going Tiger call in doctrines.

IS2 is better AT wise, Tiger is better AI. TTK between each other is not as different 64.41s± vs 59.69±
IS2 has an edge of 2.8s at far and at near 6.3s.
AT Guns: they have exactly the same TTK, only difference is that you have TwP to win you the battle.
Infantry AT: well...PTRS (doctrinal) + AT nades vs Faust + Shrecks

p4 cost more than than sherman therefor it is reasonable that a p4 wins
also jackson is supposed to be used in long range. just as any TD are intended to

perhaps you are correct that tiger kills infantry better, but "bad infantry killer" sounds like a joke

Actually, relic had planned soviet doctirne with T34/85 aces and there is also elite armor doctrine with vetted P4s, lets put aside how useful the doctrine is, it provide P4 aces
I love this guy. Most Soviet tank 'aces' racked up on average 20 kills. The lowest being only 4. I'm sorry but that is not a tank ace.

This is obviously evile nazi propaganda. Top german tank ace tripling top allied tank ace. But it's a little unfair. I mean the russians did throw hordes of cheap t34's in front of heavy tanks. No other nation in history was in a better position for both air and ground combat to slaughter hundreds of inferior vehicles.
The same applies to fighter aces. Literally the top 100 best fighter pilots in history rein from nazi germany. But I'm sure they all lied about their kill counts to serve as propaganda.
Waiting for the flame.

There are some german aces whos only achievement was surviving and escaping with multiple tanks that had few crew members killed.
Doesn't seem much of an ace and yet here they are.
@daspoulos
But everything axis made was superior!
Krupp steel!
Uber planes!
Superior trainings!
Pure race!
They had everything best and they were the best! It just happened that they have lost the war because of evil allied schemes and a lucky flank on Berlin!
Do you suggest nazi germany supreme leaders and commanders actually LIED to everyone, du dumm Untermensh?

Yeah surviving engagements only to go jump back in the fight to score more kills isn't credible because crew members and vehicles have been lost lol. Keep downplaying it. I'm going to enjoy this thread.
