I just bought the KV-122
It's ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ horrible, i wasted 5000 golden eagles on it.
it has a large weakspot in the armor in the front, 80mm.. all the tanks on the BR can easily penetrate the armor, and the gun has such a long reload :(

Waa Waa Waa. Your money isn't supposed to fight for you, your skill should. Premium tanks aren't meant to be insanely overpowered. Git gud, and you would do better.

Its a good support tank.

Let your allies get shot to pieces, and when the time is right, roll out, pick someone to obliterate, shoot, roll back and hope a Ru 251 didnt set you as it's ♥♥♥♥♥

All the info was right there for you. The stat card gives you reload time, armor, etc. You can preview and check the armor and internals with ease before buying it. You can see its BR and check what it can face. You can see that it is a KV-85 with an IS-2 turret. All the info was avalable to you along with being able to ask about it here, look for reviews online, watch some youtube videos, or at least test drive it.

There really is nothing to say, all the info about the vehicle and what it can and can't do well was there for you to check out before you spent your GE on it.

Finally someone who understand it's not a pay to win game. Also, just change your tactics.

That's how many Soviet 122mm tanks play out. Take your time, stay back a bit, and when the time is right, pop out and shove a 122mm APHE into the enemy and often watch him burn. Those long reloads don't allow for much pushing, especially when you only have 'meh' armor in most cases.

If you were looking for a premium that was instantly strong, you should've bought the IS-6 if you had the money. If not, I hear that the T-34-100 is a pretty decent tank.

T-44-122 is also good :P

you made a few mistakes here
1. not buying a decent tank's talisman
2. no research
3. no asking for opinions on theo fficial forum or here

What's also funny is that the IS2 is at 5.7, so there is no point in just buying the KV122. There are plenty of tanks that only exist as premium that he couldv'e gotten instead, but in his ultimate FNG wisdom, he had to buy the KV122.

Unfortunately, even though it has a awesome gun, the armor is just as useful as tinfoil at 6.7

One mistake (like being in the open for too long) will cause your untimely doom.

Dont brawl in it or you die. horribly.

The T44-100 is only 0.3 higher in BR, but it has much better armour. I would recommend the T44-100 over the T34-100.

It does have better armor, but it puts you into range of ATGM's.

An IS6/T44-100 combo is much better than whatever combo you can make with Russian tanks for 6.7. Instead of buying the T34-100, one could buy the IS6 and form a better combo at 7.0.
