in any game you play, the top levels are all about finding the most efficient way to victory. that being said, blobbing is fairly easily countered using a variety of tools at your disposal.

Make 4-5 volks and get a battle group hq after your 2nd volks. Basically you'll want to have groups of two volks roaming the map capping and supporting each other. Use your starting sturm for good DPS. Get scwherer HQ once you have 70 fuel. Here you have a choice, go obers + luchs or save for obers + panther. Look at your situation and choose accordingly. Upgrade to shreks as fast as possible on your many volks squads in preparation for their call in armor and build raketens if you choose to go luchs. Use grenades sparingly so you have enough munitions for your shreks

Jli and panzer fusiliers are more effective at killing cons in the early mid game so you can replace a few volks squads with them but you'll have to compensate the lost shreks by getting raketens. Keep an eye on your own command points to get an idea when their call ins will hit the field

The luchs is the hard counter to shocks. You can usually get a luchs a few minutes after shocks hit the field if you go medic truck to schwerer truck. During that time just use multiple squads to focus shocks and just retreat if they get close because you WILL lose squads if you dont

its like a pocket isu when direct firing

I am talking about teamgames, I dont know how it scales in 1v1 games.

atm in 2v2s the ISU is almost unbeatable in certain situations and maps. americans spam vet rifles and get bars/zookas + fuel caches, while soviets go snipers/scout car or maxims and at guns, whatever they choose. even if map control is even, you're winning because youre saving all your fuel for ez8s and isu152s. once they come out it is very very very easy to just park yourself at a VP and take back any territories you lost during the mid game. since the american did not spend any fuel other than weapon unlocks, you can spam ez8s, while the soviet player just backs up the isu152 with snipers and guards. its rather bullshit and extremely difficult to fight against.

you talk about using combined arms to defeat isu152s, but you also have to remember that the soviet player will also be using combined arms to defend the isu, not to mention that their ally will trying to be covering for their weakness.

it was a fairly close game and we were even losing, but ez8s and isu152s come out and its just easy going from there.

edit: its not the best game to really show how stupid the ISU is, but its the only game i have on hand atm.
