I've never lived long enough to run out of ammo, so the IS-4 sounds perfect

[@1958plymouth440V8]

I really resisted going down the S.Conq line for ages because I couldn’t bring myself to endure the Churchill/Black Prince grind. But now that they’ve been buffed, the journey was so much easier and the S.Conq is simply beautiful. So reliable and dependable.

[@2shae475]

Get ready for those nerfs lmao

[@GhostVvar]

Some honorable mentions I'd recommend is: IS-7 with it's trolly armor and nearly impenetrable turret which makes it really easy for new players. E-100 would be a close contender for meaty 750 alpha but with better overall gun performance, gold pen and side armor vs the 60TP. And probably the Maus because of it's large HP pool and thick armor, it can be quite forgiving and it can help players learn the basics of angling.

[@rith2757]

the video is best heavies, not easiest to play. while is7 is fun and somewhat easy, it has a terrible gun and dpm, which hurts it compared to other heavies. E100 is def good, but with the small gun. the small gun gives u insane dpm and consistency, along with ur HP and armor. if u run the big gun, ur just a worse 60tp. Maus is niche, because while it can be very good, it gets cucked on a lot of maps

[@sacristar]

​@@rith2757 The IS4's only merit on this list is definitely because it is noob friendly and not because it is a great tank.

[@rith2757]

@@sacristar is4 is a great tank tho. gun is decent and your armor is really troll. ur also fairly mobile.

[@sacristar]

@@rith2757 You're making me curious tbh. But not curious enough to buy it back before others on my list 💸😅 Anyway, I remain skeptical. And besides, the video to me at least appears to be themed: best heavy overall, best big boomstick, best heavium, best autoloader, best noob friendly 🤷‍♂️

[@nistramai]

Maus line was the first one I tried going down. But I was tier 8 when BZ-176 was rolling around and it ruined the experience for me getting half my health taken when they get a pen on the cupola thats 220 for the 220 HE...

[@Notreallysureactually]

I’ve been working my way down the Polish heavies as my first heavy tank line. I thought the 45tp and 53tp were both really fun; I’m looking forward to the 60tp when I get there.

[@Eric-vz3vd]

Don't. It's sh*t lol

[@Notreallysureactually]

@@Eric-vz3vd Eh, I think I’ll be the judge of that when I get there.

[@rqvenzed]

Make sure u have Safe Stowage on that, if that tank get track, That tank can get ammo racked easily

[@derandere4965]

Good choice. It‘s a good and beginner-friendly tier X heavy. IS-7 would be better armor-wise, but you lack gun depression. So, again: Good choice.

[@besteffortint]

S Conq, and 277 are both really strong tanks.

[@PuddingCh]

Out of these tanks, I have the 277, the 60TP, and the T57 Heavy Got the T57, played it for a bit, but never really liked it so I sold it. Who knows, maybe I will get it back in the future if I feel up to it. I run my 277 with an Bounty Turbo, Rammer, and Vert Stabs, and I find it absolutely hilarious. Previously if a whole bunch of us were pushing or at least moving to a flank, I'd be behind the mediums while the other heavies were behind me (sort of like a straggler between both groups). After I threw the turbo on it for shits and giggles, I've had a lot more fun and done better in it. Plus its always funny outpacing some mediums (I remember once chasing a light tank downhill and actually catching up somehow; he died after he whiffed a turn and I rammed him) The 60TP is a tank that I regret not having gotten sooner. It works great, though I have been ammoracked a couple of times (both times by Jagd E100s...)

[@kostkacukru1776]

Depends on when you get it, before buff T57 had the worst gun out of all autoloaders... so it is really not something surprising. However, after buff, this tank is so good, definitely went at least 2 or maybe even 3 tiers up, gun is now at least GOOD, not the worst. And overall all his other stats are balanced too, with turbo it has OK speed, it has SOME random armor. Give it a try, not saying you will love it as your the most favorite tank, but you will definitely feel better than before.

[@osama_h_m_m1175]

Nice video, but I would say E5 and vz55 deserve a place in the list at least an honorable mention

[@rith2757]

not even honorable mentions, those should be on the list. on par, if not stronger than the tanks on the list. extremely strong and competent vehicles in the right hands. even after Vz's nerf.

[@marcellvarga4569]

​@@rith2757 i think vz55 is better than obj.277. Am i right?

[@rith2757]

@@marcellvarga4569 they both do different things. single shot, 277 is better. Running single shot on Vz is terrible idea. But Vz with burst gun is amazing. extremely strong, even after the nerfs. a 4-5k avg dmg tank still IMO

[@rith2757]

BZ-75, Vz55, M-V-Y, and T110E5 should be on this list IMO. BZ gets insane mobility and essentially the same gun as the 60tp in exchange for a little less armor. Vz55 even after nerf has insane damage potential, mobility, and decent armor. M-V-Y is a hull down monster and has insane firepower/DPM if you run the small gun. T110E5 has an insane combination of armor (if you know how to hide the hatch), mobility, gun handling, and DPM. Albeit, E5 has a fairly high skill cap and requires extremely good skill/awareness to be effective in. But seeing as this list is "best" heavy tanks, not "easiest to play", these 3 definitely should be on the list, in my humble opinion.

[@solyomandras]

I cannot speak about the BZ-75 and the M-V-Y because I do not have those tanks, however the VZ 55 was a huge disappointment for me. It basically loads 2 x 490 dmg shells in 23.97 seconds, and in exactly the same time the T57 loads 4 x 400 dmg shells. OFC these two tanks play really differently, but for me the VZ was really akward, since it liked to miss or bounce a shot from those two, and this resulted an abysmal dpm. Also you cannot always play the VZ hulldown, as it has only 8° depression, and the cupola is an easy shot. However maybe that is only my issue with the tank, and the ambush style of the T57 suits better to my playstyle.

[@rith2757]

@@solyomandras while RNG exists, missing/bouncing is usually on you, the gun is pretty accurate. i wont deny u can get bad rng, but 90% of the time, Vz connects. you are also faster, and while you do have a cupola, the point of the Vz is to only be visible for 2.5-3s to get your shells off, and then retreat. you can't just sit there like an IS-7 or Kranvagn. VZ is extremely strong even after the nerfs, if played correctly. i say this with experience, i usually have a 5k avg dmg in the tank on a good day.

[@johnnymigouel7228]

IS4 is a gem and the entire branch is super underrated: T150 is good, KV3 is good with very good armour, KV4 and ST-I are incredible and the IS4 is great for countering tanks like the 279(e)

[@miikkarummukainen2680]

Good video as usual. Wondering, will you make same kind of video for other classes?

[@MaxGamingFPS]

I plan on doing so, however this video took a long time to make and I am not going to try and even predict a date at which that would be up.

[@generalknez3942]

Whats important is that the other class vids are in planning ;)

[@ohgord-qc3qd]

This video certainly seems more slick, (not that your usual stuff is rough!) so you have obviously put more time into it, and judging by the number of likes it seems to be paying off. If you include something slightly controversial each time it will generate a load of comments too. Quality job

[@khamphaxungquanh992]

I absolutely agree those tanks are really cool tanks in this game. I have almost them. T57 is4 scon and 60tp are my cup of tea.

[@frannnzz]

I recently started playing this game (been playing world of warships a lot and wanted some change), this vid is awesome, as there are so many tanks to farm I can now get an idea on which ones should I focus. I'll be waiting for those other classes vids. Thanks a lot, cheers from Argentina !

[@bogdanflorea395]

Same here mate, switching from Warships :)

[@desainisme]

get super conqueror and 277 first, good for onslaught, medium I will pick tvp, cs63, and stb1

[@max.b9805]

Bienvenido acá tenes un compañero argentino 👊😉

[@CharcharoExplorer]

The Experimental HP and especially the Experimental mobility module are awesome on the S. Conq.

[@OTOss8]

Do you like the experimental mobility over say, bond turbo?

[@CharcharoExplorer]

@@OTOss8 Over pink for sure. Bond? Overall yes.

[@solyomandras]

Good video Max! I agree that the T57 is probably the most overlooked and underrated HT at T10. Without doubts it is one of the best (if not the best) damage dealer HT. Sure, in this game dealing damage does not always mean a victory, but oh well. A very positive side is that if you manage to use it in the correct way (meaning ambushing other distracted tanks) it is perfectly usuable without premium ammo. OFC there are maps and situations where the 340 HEAT comes in handy. This tank works much better, at least for me, than the VZ 55.

[@cameron6966]

Just got the t57 as my first tier 10 im loving it

[@kevinstansick9702]

truly appreciated this video. straight to the point and very informative. cheers from USA.

Thanks for the info. Always nice to get some perspective on these vehicles. Any chance you could give us your favorite top 5 'not tier X' heavies?

[@neilford7338]

Grinding IS-4 at the moment, mostly because i got a nice skin for it. Looking forward to it now though.

[@DvsLucas1088]

Hey Max, i've been smashing through your videos lately and by far this is my favourite & well paced one. Great content & honest opinions, best to take advice from someones opinion with 10's of thousands of games for such a grind to a Tier 10. Keep it up mate.

[@bobochungi1541]

As someone who has played warships for a few years and now wants to get into tanks as well are heavy tanks the closest to BBs? I’m a battleship main

[@jerryisgaming6571]

Very interesting video, along with the one on meds. Thanks a lot. Could you maybe make a video on equipment? I'd be interested in where bounty/bonds equipment would best be used and how experimental equipment fits in. And if the 2nd upgrade for experimental equipment is really worth it given the cost.

[@albazar]

cheers Max, great video nice comparisons as well.

[@roberthart3305]

Very interesting video. Thanks for laying your argument out so well.

Wooooot I love them heavies !!! Great choices and wicked commentaries appreciate it much !! Keep up the good work !!

Hahaha love the videos ty 😎👍🏼🤜🏼🤛🏻

[@garyhardison9265]

Nice breakdown buddy, appreciate the video

[@kostkacukru1776]

IS-4 is so underrated heavy tank, I'm pretty happy to see it mentioned on your list... For better players, who knows how to play around armor and angels of it, this tank can bounce literally everything... my only tank, with which i had +12k bounced dmg, the only tank close to it was obviously Maus with +-10k... The gun is in my opinion the weakest link of this tank, but you are usually fighting on a pretty close range, so it doesn't bother me that much. I played almost all russian heavy tanks and IS-4 feels really like the most balanced out of them, with no weaknesses but only with super great armor, all other aspects are kind of average.

[@cedricdelisser3466]

Very well made and put together. Impressive stuff.

[@craigjewel4539]

You do a really good job. Thanks

[@livintolearn7053]

My issue with the super conq line is that it involves a disgusting grind. It's just pain, even with a premium account. You might just quit on life if you grind the stock Conq without premium after the already hefty grind that precedes it. The Russian and American lines are so much better grind-wise. Also TDs are great because even their stock guns are decent (maybe not by TD standards, but defo manageable guns for the tier).

[@megumi_0]

what? m103 isn't on sconq line

[@livintolearn7053]

@@megumi_0 Oops, sorry. I meant Conq.

[@MrWinotu]

I play around 6 months, and I am far from having even tier VIII... It gets so expensive on the top of the tree... You must save silver for months and train a crew. I go through many lost battles ;( The game discourage me from playing as there is no good balancing system where two teams get players with similar experience, tanks crew (and) or tank development... There definately should be some levels in this game where players from certain level would not be playing against players with other levels or the sum of levels in each time is equal.

[@matejsabadi7992]

bro how is that even posible i am really new started 2 weeks ago and have 2 tier 8?

[@matthewbrzozowski6123]

Ahh I have 2 of these and I love them. 60tp and IS4, bother are extremely fun

[@Questionablethingy]

i tried the is4 and i gotta admit it is hella fun,imagine blocking like 10 shot from e100 and type 5h at point blank range with ur hull,hella fu

[@kristianhalbavy5254]

Man ive been grinding my way to obj 277 as my first heavy, recently they added type 71 so i switched to grinding that after getting to T-10 and i was thinking of going for either Vz. 55 or S. Conq after getting the Type 68

[@longdongsilver4444]

Where's the maus

[@ohgord-qc3qd]

I guessed the first 4 in order, but didn't see the IS4 coming. Glad to see no Kranvagn, and VZ 55, but thought the WZ 111-5a might have sneaked in. Thing is most people will still start with the E-100 though. Most fun line would be a good follow-up

[@svgstudios831]

wdym, is4 is second best allround armour

[@aakettu]

Reverse sidescrape IS-4 and no one pen you

[@iqcool]

The 5A is just a 277 with worse gun handling, armour, and mobility, so I'm not surprised that didn't make it. The T57 did surprise me a little bit though because of it's low survivability for a heavy and the fact it is an autoloader. I've seen some people saying the E100 or Maus, but those really are best saved for once you're good at armour use and brawling; only with good skill do those tanks really come into their own.

[@georgesimon2730]

I like the heat shells on the e5 more than the apcr on sconq. I just seem to penetrate more often

[@duke223_]

Nice vid! 👍🏻

[@papasmurf_hero8213]

could you do the best grinds for heavy tanks meaning the top tank but also consider the grind how easy it etc.

Hello Max! Thank you for the content. Have been following your videos in the last year, good stuff! When you have a bit of some spare time, can you do a vid on the FV215B? Want to purchase it for bonds. Thanks!

[@MaxGamingFPS]

It's an okay tank, but it's really been left behind in every aspect apart from the gun. I would suggest getting an S Conq as you will have a much nicer time than with the FV.

The S conq is great and all, but I sometimes feel that it’s a bit overrated. The alpha is low, and while gun handling is good, the tank is often too slow to use it, and the armour is only reliable against standard ammo.

[@Crabybaby-b5s]

Now the real question is what are the WORST tech tree heavy tanks (at Tier 10). The Panzer VII is the only one that I consider outright bad, and I'm not sure which other ones I would consider to be 'the worst' (maybe the M-V-Y?), as most have at least a few redeeming qualities.

[@GhostVvar]

A large number of players would probably say the Rino, despite being overall disliked by the community, it's my favorite heavy and I very much enjoy playing it.

No 7? That just does not seem right. Pretty sure EVERYONE would rather be in that than an IS-4 or a 57 in most cases. Especially in ranked. I am NOT saying those tanks aren't good. Just 7 is a bit better in most cases. I would have put it right after the 60.
