As it can one-shot tanks that could prove a threat to lower tier comrades, such as the StuG III G, Hetzer, and Matilda. With the 122mm D-2-5T, the tank can become decisive in tier 6 matches. The KV-1S can feel like a porcelain cannon, it is not as fragile as the Nashorn, but like the Nashorn, it packs a very nasty punch. It can outrun most of its same tier kin and thus enables it to reach positions other tanks would have trouble reaching before the enemy does. The KV-1S is prone to fires which do not help its poor hitpoints pool.Įssentially the only major things going for the KV-1S are the 122mm D-2-5T it can equip and its ability to move such a gun in a timely fashion. The KV-1S is larger, but has much better armor than the Hellcat. Unlike the Hellcat though, the KV-1S also does not enjoy very high agility nor a good aim time and decent rate of fire. The KV-1S has, like the Hellcat, poor hull armor for its tier and class as well as a poor hitpoint pool (Though the Hellcat's is not the poorest of its tier). Thus, in some sense, the KV-1S plays in a way that can be seen as slightly comparable to that of the Hellcat. In addition the top turret has a sluggish traverse, and despite the decent armor for its tier, it is no match for higher tier guns and can even fail the avid tanker against lower tier weapons. However, to balance the firepower of the KV-1S, it has been given the lowest hitpoint pool of all of the tier 6 heavies, a painful reload time and a very annoying aim time. With top gun, this tank is rightly feared, and very rarely do you see a KV-1S without a 122mm D-2-5T mounted. Unreliable armor except when sidescraping.Īlthough not as well armored as the T-150, the KV-1S trades armor for speed and maneuverability.Eliminates the option of using this tank to soak up damage in a direct bra Second lowest hitpoint pool of all tier 6 heavies.Very slow reload (About 20 seconds) and poor aim time on 122mm, inaccurate at long range.Surprisingly good gun depression, for a Russian heavy.
Good agility and among the fastest tier 6 heavies.122mm is one of the most powerful guns at tier 6 due to high penetration and alpha.
