Ok i'm doing pretty okay when going up against Brits or USF in 2v2's, but when i'm against SU, I have multiple issues.

First off their Maximspam is annoying as they can lockdown VP's, but it's do-able. But when going in the mid game, they rush out the KV with flamethrower. What can you do against such a thing as Axis?

Neither me or my ally know a solution for this.

Panzershreks and Anti-Tank just doesn't seem to work out.

Mines might work, but the Puma and Stug? they'll rekt by medium-tanks let alone this Heavy-KV tank..

And for Panzer 4, that's way to late-game. KV will be out before you can even put up a Tier 4 building

Both Puma and StuG have superior range. Just micro them and they will be fine. Watch out for AT guns, don't chase him, try to make your enemy rush after your squads and set up traps.

Any sort of AT weapon will kill the KV...

The KV-8 (flammenKV) has an ATO flamethrower and a 45 mm gun that has worse penetration (and damage?) than the PTRS wielded by Guards. I'm fairly certain that the StuG can sit right in front of the KV and derp it to death, and the Puma should be able to kite it--effortlessly--unless you play with your face.

That is probably more to do with the players than the Pak / Ost. Pak is probably the best AT gun in the game.

For sure, the vet 1 is insane on a pac. I have often used Puma as both OKW and OST to repell the kv8, it does allot better than you would expect.
