Unpopular opinion: what’s the big fuss about the Iron Arnie?

I know, I'll get downvoted to hell and called a noob for this, but really, what? I mean, I get it, it's not a bad tank by any means, it's nimble, got a solid hull, a great turret, except for that friggin tumor on it that somehow gets hit by everyone on any range even while moving, and it's got a decent gun. On paper at least, because the accuracy of it is the most trollish I've seen lately. I had matches where I couldn't hit an M-III-Y's copola out of NINE shots even once, even though they were all fully aimed, and the enemy tank was like 100 meter away (Fjords south heavy brawling spot).

Your turret is supposed to be inpenetratable, UNLESS 2 pixels of your cupola is showing for a millisecond, in which case it will get lasered in the blink of eye. I quickly realized it had to be played much like the Renegade, but I somehow find the Renegade a much more comfortable and reliable tank to play.

It also seems to see a lot of T10, I'd wager the majority of my battles so far were in T10, where no matter how beefy your tank is compared to other T8's, they just load gold and absolutely shit on you.

So yeah, as I said, it's a decent tank, but doesn't feel nowhere near the godlike wonderweapon some people would lead you to believe, and just feels extremely bad luck-magnety sometimes, which is obviously just anecdotal stuff from me but seems to be the case at least in my experience.
