Best Heavy Tanks in World of Tanks Blitz (2025)

Characterized by their low maneuverability, decent armor, and incredible weapons, heavy tanks are the most popular class of tanks in World of Tanks Blitz. They are best suited for frontlines, where they become juggernauts who can push through the enemies' defense.

However, have you ever thought what are the best heavy tanks in World of Tanks Blitz? There are many heavies on different tiers, so choosing the best one might be a complex task. In this article, we've tried to list the best heavy tanks in the game. Those tanks are suitable not only for seasoned professionals but also for beginners who are getting their first X-tier tank.

Best Heavy Tanks in World of Tanks Blitz

IS-4

• Tier: X
• Nation: USSR

At first glance, there is nothing special about the IS-4. This tank doesn't have outstanding weapons like the WZ-111 5A or excellent maneuverability like the IS-7. What the IS-4 has is a good armor profile with sides and angles having great defenses. The IS-4 also has good heat penetration combined with decent DPM, which makes him a monster in PvP fighters.

Maus

• Tier: X
• Nation: Germany

Perhaps the "heaviest" among the heavy tanks in World of Tanks Blitz, the Maus certainly earns its place as one of the best heavies in the game. The Maus boasts the most HP in World of Tanks Blitz which, combined with its decent armor, makes the Maus a juggernaut at the frontlines. Although the Maus doesn't have the best weapon, it perfectly plays the role of the damage sponge for its teammates as it is capable of absorbing tons of enemy fire.

T54E2 Shark

• Tier: VIII
• Nation: USA

If you haven't used the T54E2 Shark yet, then you should know it's a dynamic heavy tank with a great top speed, nicely designed frontal armor, and a quick-firing gun with one of the best DPM at the VIII-tier. Moreover, the T54E2 Shark is a premium tank, which means it has increased credit-earning rates.

What are the disadvantages of the T54E2? Unfortunately, this tank is not available in the store 24/7. To get this tank, you should wait for the special offers or become a Wargaming contributor, which is nearly an impossible goal for the average player.

E 100

• Tier: X
• Nation: Germany

If you liked the Maus, then you'll like the E 100 – a German heavy tank that boasts 2,750 HP and a 150mm gun created to destroy other heavy tanks. That gives us a clear understanding that the E 100 should be played only at the frontlines and that you should show its highly armored parts with 20-to-30-degree angles.

Like the Maus, the E 100 struggles with mobility, thus limiting its ability to reposition during battle. So, carefully choose which side to head to while playing with the E 100.

Smasher

• Tier: VII
• Nation: Hybrid

On paper, the Smasher looks like one of the worst heavy tanks in World of Tanks Blitz. It's big, has weak armor, and has sluggish mobility, which makes it somewhat bad for 1v1 engagements. However, the Smasher carries a 152mm cannon which is one of the best guns at the VII-tier. When facing poorly armored VI-tier and VII-tier tanks, the Smasher can easily one-shot them.
