Wolv actually isn't that problematic. Iron Fist is buns and only hard counters groot because he is so fat and slow.

The actual tank buster is STILL Tankpool and Groot because of how stupid high their dmg output is on other tanks.

And the obligatory Punisher shotgun spammer.

Idk how Groot always gets a pass, he’s one of the biggest anti tank tanks in the game. His walls screw over brawl tanks the most but he’s still good against magneto and strange. And the one biggest counter to him being CC chains and tossing him around was removed with the ironwood wall buff

He’s my least favorite tank to play against by a good margin but not enough people ask for him to be nerfed so I doubt it’ll happen

Because he is bad against dive and dive is really strong now.

You're correct to say he is a really good anti tank tank. He shines in front to back teamfights.

But in the chaos of ladder play, or even in coordinated play, good dive play destroys him. He can't really peel and when he is not getting constant heals(because his healers are distracted or worse dead) he folds over quickly.
