If you don't have armor yet, it can be tough. Your best bet is probably to spread out your Schrecks/Raketenwerfers and hope to push it back. Don't blob your infantry, that's a death sentence. And as always, a well-placed mine can do wonders.

On the other hand, any OKW T3 tank will do very well against the KV-8. Sure, you might not always penetrate its armor, but the KV-8 is literally useless against a Pz4/JPz4/Panther. Even a Puma can probably do pretty well, just don't keep shooting at it from the front - try to flank it instead.

It arrives at 9 cp, callin panter(that is much better) at 10. Is it a problem to wait. Evrithing at is good vs kv8, every tank, shrek blob of 2+ also annihiletes not supported kv8.

Dont attack it if sits at the base. if it goes out just destroy it with blob.

Mines and bait, try luring the kv8 into your shreks.

9/10, if Soviet player see's a blob of shreks he'll chase with the Kv8, a well placed mine with cloaked racketens should finish that off.
