T90 (B) is undertiered
At least compared to literally everything else at or below its BR, it's is superior by a significant margin. 4 sec reload with a round that can 1-shot an M1A1 through the turret's heaviest armor, (this is how I've died to it about 30% of the time, it doesn't even need to aim) and it has a turret that anything less than the M829A1 can't pen anywhere.

EDIT: Talking about the Type 90 (B). (and the "Fuji" premium which is identical)

horrible mobility overall especially -4km/h reverse speed no gun depression and literally no survivability against someone with more than 7 braincells and a tiny bit of aim, damn there's a lot of crybaby posts today

The Type 90 is a fast and hard hitting glasscannon but it´s not undertiered.
It´s Leo 2A4 esque armor won´t stop much at it´s BR and with only 3 crew, you are prone for being 1 shot.
And the Gun has a fairly slow vertical targeting speed and the Gunner optic is not good for close range firefights due to it´s high zoom.
It´s vertical guidance is very limited without using the suspension control and the horizontal traverse is not the fastest.

Yeah, I didn't notice the missing letters until after I hit the button.

I can't turret pen the 2A4 either, but at least the 2A4 can get penned around the cannon in more than a millimeter wide area.

It really isn't all that slow, and unless you're in sim, you don't need to use the scope for brawls at all.

Vertical angle isn't all that bad, and 99% of engagements are on relatively flat ground, or on slopes that don't exceed the vert of the Type 90 (B). Horizontal traverse being not the best in the game is still better than most.

It's got a few extremely minor downsides for some pretty massive advantages. It's not even close to balanced at its BR.

Type 90 is a like a Leopard 2A4 with faster reload but worse in everything else.

Has horrible optics, crappy depression, gen 1 thermals, average to bad shell, no armor, 3 crew.

Well the PT-16/T14 mod exists in the German tree and that's almost the same vehicle but a full br lower

The Type 90 is pretty poor for its BR, if anything it should go lower not higher.

apropos of nothing: I initially read that as 'average to bad smell'
