The definitive counterplay.

It can't maneuver very easily when you block it's line of sight with smoke. He's stuck either trying to attack ground or moving around the smoke. The former is inaccurate and the latter is time consuming and likely to put him out of position.

This is partially because the JPIV gets invincibility at vet 1. But even so, JPIV has to expose itself to fire (although on briefly) to deal with opponents tanks, JT does not.

The issue here is not the JT balance in 1v1 and smaller game modes for which I find its drawback sufficient. Even in larger game modes I think it a reasonable unit at some level, but its ability to deal with Allied units in a way that exposes it to little to no counterplay I find troubling. The changes that have been suggested do not in any way affect the performance, other than to give the 17pdr a chance to fire at it, but instead make it more of a luxury item instead of a replaceable TD.

It is completely fine in the smaller modes, overperforming on some maps (greatly on a few specific ones) in the bigger ones. IF there was going to be any changes to the unit, it should be targeted towards the bigger game modes, without upsetting the performance on the smaller ones. That includes performance nerfs/buffs imo, which wouldn't get my vote.
