So then those two tanks should not be compared in such a general manner.
A pop adjustment could work too, but for me the fact that we might not get a second larger patch works exactly the other way around: We currently have the KV1 in 3 commanders, two of which are far from meta (one gladly due to the B4). If we nerf the KV1 too much and can't patch it back up, these three commanders are basically gone. I'd rather nerf the KV1 from "too strong" to "slightly too strong" and keep three commanders viable instead of nerfing it to potentially UP and kick out three commanders forever.
I can +1 to that, especially since we are in a state where nothing really is truly "op" anymore in terms of "100% meta pick" like osttruppen were.
Despite some people still hoping and advocating for it, the time where we can afford to nerf units into irrelevance is long gone. At some point, people will have to learn to play and actually adjust their play and BO to what they are facing instead of repeating single BO against all factions on all maps, vs all doctrines and complaining every single time their golden formula does not work.
