Just played a 3 v 3. We fielded 2 x IS-2 in the late game.
Enemy had some Panthers and a (sigh) Tiger Ace.
The first IS-2 got gibbed by a Teller / airstrike combo. It was literally screwed in five seconds. My IS-2 got hit by the Tiger and the Panther and was brewed up in a similar amount of time.
It was comedy gold for the Ost - 2 IS-2s destroyed in less than a minute.
The IS-2 isn't a win button. In fact, it's pretty situational and isn't a great 'breakthrough' tank in the way the Tiger can be.
Youre insinuating the IS2 isnt as good as everyone says because it can be taken out by a teller and bombing strike? Thats totally irrelevant. I may damn well hope the other IS2 went down to a Tiger and Panther, if it didnt it would be ridiculous.
