Guys you are so strange "why we must use commanders to deal with snipers? Why we must think to deal with snipers? Why we must play to deal with snipers?" I cant say that every game for germans i saw snipers, thats first. And the second: yes you need to think, use commander and make other stuff to counter snipers cuz its the game, when you all will learn how to counter snipers they will try to use another tactics. And then you will complain that you cant bit it cuz you want to drink coffee and play game that wants all micro you can give it!

This.
2v2; one goes guards + snipes, other goes cons.
GG
e: talking about skilled players. The days of G43 counter are over

Clearly scout cars will absolutely - oh wait no they're even less effective now that they're more vulnerable to small arms.
Well maybe if we get snipers of our own - oh wait no the Sov sniper is a solid counter to the German sniper.
Perhaps if we get a lucky mortar shot I guess?

How I would usually deal with this kind of play is that I try not to think of them as terminators that just 1 shot your squad members. I don't know how to explain how to counter this. What I usually do is that I just go on and keep pushing. This guy "xinyang" or something tried snipers + guards against me while his mate went conscripts and his snipers ended up of being no use at all but delaying me from taking his territory. He kept trying to push but he couldn't lay a foot on my soil. btw i never use mortars

Some people might say there is no evidence for RNG in this game and that taking down a skilled players sniper takes...well, skills, but it is of absolute importance that you don't listen to them. All you have to do is pray. And sacrifice goats. And yeah, don't forget to money in the box that says "elite troops"! God bless you all.

The only way to deal with heavy soviet sniper strats (in 2v2) is to sacrifice at least three goats before playing.
This goat does not approve

In 2v2, one player needs to get a MHT, and the other SC with spotting scopes. I've had success with this where I only use the SC to do dmg against flanking units, and only chase snipers when guards have retreated (and there's no AT guns). Grens with lmgs/g43s are a must too.
An ostheer sniper could work, just match the kill count of the Soviet's sniper and avoid them.

As per title. I am having troubles playing against this strategy. I am able to do fairly ok against it in 1v1 but I have not won a game when Soviet player used this opening in 2v2 after recent patch.
Problem is this build is present in 85% of 2v2 games I play recently so any help would be more than welcome. I tried everything with minor success to put it mildly.
Even if I manage to survive into the mid game I am usually so far behind that I am unable to win.
