i think the tiger is mostly fine, it did receive a few buffs recently (will always outrange mediums and will always pen them, comet aside) maybe like 20-25 more frontal armour but thats about it (enough to negate the recently green su85 buff)
it reliably kills infantry and it has blitz for a lil extra oomph from the engine if needed
its also in like 5 doctrines iirc, very good ones at that so its much less exclusive and much more flexible in how you can use it than the perch or is-2
This I agree with.
The Tiger is in far more doctrines offering more versatility in strategies.
The Tiger does have Blitz at vet 1 so a speed buff would not fit it (and in some doctrines panzer tactician, O god).
The Tiger has the same pen and range as the king tiger.
The Tiger rear armor is being reduced to 140, same as the IS-2.
The Tiger has a faster firing rate and better accuracy.
The Tiger takes less experience to vet over the IS-2.
So the only buff I would say would be a small front armor buff to 320 or 325, slightly better than the ISUs front armor which is 310. Also the engineers in the EFAs do need their repair rate improved.
Please correct me if I am wrong with something.
