T95E1
It is the worst tank I've ever played. Just the worst. French reserves, russian tops, Pz 4 H, PT-76, Ha-Go.... Nothing drove me mad as T95E1. You know, any tank has it's advantages and disadvantages, even ♥♥♥♥♥♥ one. But T95E1's only advantage is penetration, which is actually useless, becouse it usually faces any unarmoured tanks, such as Leopard 1s. It's 8.0 rank 6 tank, but it has no gun stabilizer, while actually all 8.0-8.3 tanks have! (M48 A2 G A2 is T95E1's brother there).
The gun. It has perfect penetration and ballistics, but it has just broken accuracy. It's very difficult to hit some tank farther than 800m. I know, it's historical, but for such high rank it's really painful. Also gun has long reloading.
Armour. At first look, it's good, but there are huge weakspots for APHEs: commander's turret, turret ring, lower frontal plate. Don't forget, there are a lot of powerful HEAT-FSs and APDS/APDSFSs, against which, armour is useless.
Mobility. It doesn't exist. Just doesn't!!! I can understand it's acceleration. It's bad, but okay. The main problem there is hull rotation. Hull can be turned only at N-gear. If you try to press W+A/D the tank will just stop and then will turn hull at N-gear.
IDK how to use this trash can, If you have any ideas - wright them, I'll try. Even sniping there is impossible due to awful mobility and accuracy.

RB, as I said, it's impossible to snipe due to no accuracy and no mobility.

There is another tank like this in soviet tech tree called IS-4M. Br 7.7 heavy tank, no stabilizier, bad penetration for it's br, very long reload, high repair cost (realistic), slow speed, useless armour. You need to just skip useless tanks like these in tech tree and get the next tank.

Yeah, IS-4M in stock is really poor, but in top it can kill actually, unlike T95E1.

I was playing the T95E1 about a year ago. I had the occasional good game; but I also found it semi-difficult play: not the worst I'd played; but definitely a challenge.

Only things I can suggest is to play it extremely cautiously - like it was made of glass. Keep out of sight as much as possible, make the most of any cover that's available, and try to support your teammates from behind.

IS-2, IS-2 1944, IS-3 and IS-4M have the same D-25T cannon. IS-3 and IS-4M get BR-471D with 230 mm max pen when they get shell upgrade modification otherwise they have same penetration as IS-2 at br 5.7 which is 205 mm. T95E1 starts with T320 APFSDS with 300 mm pen stock. T95E1 reload speed stock without any crew skill is 11.1s while for IS-4M is 27.1s. Why do you think the IS-4M is a better heavy tank as compared to T95E1 also T95E1 carries 50 shells while IS-4M carries only 30 so sniping with IS-4M is a bad idea since you will run out of shells quickly. I know nobody wants to carry 50 shells in top tier but this IS-4M is just worse than T95E1. IS-4M repair cost is higher than T95E1 repair cost, T95E1 realistic repair cost is similar to that of IS-3 instead.

Instead of using T95E1 or other heavy tanks at top tier you can use main battle tanks/medium tanks.

As a US 'main', focusing on the cold war era, the T95E1 is fine. It just takes some practice to do really well in.

Ah yes, why are we so stupid, why do we play this medium tank when we could have played medium tanks...

But in all seriousness most options at that BR for US are pretty bad, M60A2? sure stab is nice and the round can pen a lot but the velocity is really bad and the reload speed is pretty bad, the ATGM is ok but the dmg is worse than the HEAT shell it has and people already know how much dmg heat does?

M551? i guess, same thing as M60A2 but now you have speed instead of good armor, its ok but kinda in the same boat.

M60A1 AOS? no.

Thats really about it, also i would like to take a moment to say that the T95E1 is actually really good, kinda slow for a medium but thats every US medium at that BR until the MBT, you get a way better round than the M60A1 AOS at 8.0, everything short of maybe an IS-7 and Maus will survive a center mass shot, the armor is extremly good against conventional rounds, so most russian heavy tanks or people that don't use Heat-fs or APFSDS won't do to much to you.

The only real disadvantage of the tank is the accuracy, its stupidly inaccurate, which is nothing out of the ordinary with US 90mm for some reason, but even so you don't really need to aim that much with APFSDS.

It's better becouse
1) lower BR
2) excelent damage
3) better armour
4) (not obvious) better mobility
5) better accuracy
Yes, IS-4M is crap, but for me, my playstyle, it's better than T95E1.
T95E1 has no stabilizer and it's ***** painful when all your enemies have. So it's very difficult to offence.

So, what you are trying to say is not that the tanks is worse than an IS-4M of or that bad, its just that it does not suit your playstyle? does it that make it more of a you problem than a X tank being bad problem?

I don't know how to play it. Both rushing and sniping are impossible due to it's disadvantages. I don't know is it normal, but T95E1 is really inaccurate, even with all modifications shell often goes away from aiming point to the left or right. Other tanks, I played have no this problem. I don't see anything good there except penetration and turret rotation speed. It could be good camper tank but bad mobility and inadequate accuracy kill this tactics. It needs BR 7.3-7.7 I think, where stabilizers are rare and armour is more useful.
