Was the American M26 Pershing super heavy tank successful when it went up against the Italian and German and other axis super heavy tanks in World War 2?

First off, the M26 was not considered a "super heavy" tank, it was considered just a heavy until it was reclassified as a medium with the introduction of the M103 after the war. By the same token, the Germans and Italians did not actually field any super heavy tanks either- in fact, the Italians didn't really have any true heavy tanks, just medium and smaller.The M26 didn't really see action against Italian tanks- the M26 did not arrive until very late in the war, in spring of 1945. By that point, most of Fascist Italy had been defeated except for some pockets in northern Italy that were defended by German troops.Reportedly, the M26 fared pretty well against German heavy tanks like the Tiger, Tiger II and Jadgpanther. It also did very well against medium tanks like the Panzer IV and Panther.
