No other faction has a T-70 or stock IS-2.

Now pls try to stay on topic which are these modes instead of ranting about the game balance.

Just my thoughts as midrank 2v2 SOV main player: penal build is a viable strat. That would may sound crazy, but they do feel like 0cp half elite infantry. Lots of clost-midrange firepower from the start of the game. As if balance team put all the eggs in the "DPS" basket, which left none for the utility one Very useful when you want just brut force push the opponent away. And, Relic forbid, somebody drops an LMG and Penals pick it up. Because of
Show Spoiler

But they do bleed a lot. Kind of makes recrewing multiple team weapons a very costly choice. The closest unit is riflemen, imo, minus mobility DPS + 1 dude, which do have similar setbacks if you start losing, which can't be replaced by dirt cheap 7 men squad.

So from the personal experience playing 2v2 they are fine. Kind of an all-in'y start, but definitely can be used.

Kv2 is an ISU with a turret minus the range + tons of deflection damage. I can't say that Siege mod is very useful, unless you 100% sure that you won't be punished and the guy is AFK with his units. Also works if you are able park it behind some shot blocker and camp the VP, like on Eindhoven Country + it has tons of scatter. The tank is superb, but I'm not a fan of the ability. I would not pick it in team games tho, even in 2v2. If you intend on using the ranged ability, just pick the ISU. Much more convenient.
Imo KV2 is the closest Allies have to KT.
