E100, Virtually a smaller useful Maus with a artillery gun in a turret, and if it dies it makes a heck of a roadblock on some maps!
-I don't really consider T95 useful unless there are five or more on same team no arty scenario in wagon wheel, then it's downright scary.
Had MM do above situation to me and they blocked our whole dang team from taking their cap on arctic map.

M6 and T1. Approach bridge, turn hull 90 degrees and kiss that road goodbye.

I would have to agree with the Tier 8 and up TDs (ie.T-95) but disagree with any of the lower tiers. Yes they pack a heck of a wallup but most of the time your tank will fire faster and, with some maneuvering, destroy them before they can destroy you. So they would not be that good in this roll unless you figure a wreck blocking a bridge or pass. Some of the Heavy Tanks in all tiers would also be good. My favorite of these would be the KV.

T95, Maus, Obj. 704 to some degree - lacks armoring. But T95 is damn good at this, especially in narrow sections where it would be hard to flank it.

A hull downed T30 will make any advances think twice, anytime my presence is known and position defendable, my T30 can hold off just about half their team. Unless artillery stars raining down on me, in which case seems to be a rule after 30 seconds.

Best blocker? Take something long and heavy like Tiger P, T1 Heavy, M6, KV-5, or what have you, find a (sufficiently) narrow chokepoint and park sideways across it. You have now, if not completely denied passage, at least almost completely denied passage.
More seriously? KV-3 and Tiger P are pretty good at their tiers due to the armour and powerful guns, I guess.

any big ase dead tank makes a good blocker , with a KV behind it to Derp
Mid tier T29 takes alot of damg and the 105Mm is excellent
top tiers T95 with a clear line of sight

The combo of T95 + [any other tank] + [high tier arty] can effectively hold an entire push up. The [any other tank] is just for lighting them up and showing there's more than just the T95. The arty let's the big tanks know that it's better to stay under cover, & the smaller tanks are very aware that charging can very easily = death.
T95 can be replaced with an IS7.
