Best Commanders (as of Oct 2017)

As there is a best commanders thread from Apr 2016 that we don't want to necro, let's talk best three commanders in 1vs1 and teamgames per faction.

Share your opinions and discuss away =)

1v1

SOVIETS:

1. Lend Lease (shermans)
vacuum
4. Reserve Army (at partisans, rapid conscription)
5. Counterattack tactics (for mother russia)

All 3 are viable but lend lease is over the top right now that you can stick to it completely. Hence that's why I left 3rd and 2nd best commander missing.

Ostheer
1. Lighting war
Another useful are: stug e + tiger commander, mobile defence, elite troops (tiger ace), spearhead or to some extend also the one with command panzer 4 ando heft artillery (don't know his name)

OKW

Urban maps: Feuersturm
Other maps: Special Ops, Scavenge commander.

Other viable are elite armor (sturmtiger), breakthough and defensive ( pak43 and Heft howitzer)


USF

Armored company is number one (most played commander right now) followed by
Pershing commander
CalliOP commander
Rifle company (easy 8)

UKF
Mattress commanner is best
2nd is weapon regiment (crocodile and AT infatry)
Vanguard regiment is good as well (crocodile and skillplanez )

SU
1.Guard motor (mortar+guardrifle)
2.Shock rifle (shocktroop+IS2)
3.Tank hunter (PTRS conscript+bombing run)
4.commander with guard and con PPsh (con ppsh with hit the dirt)

USF
1.Heavy cav (Pershing) life insurance
2.Armored company (M10+bulldozer) counter call in meta with call in meta, life insurance
3.Airborn (pathfinder+paratrooper) 1 click win infantry engagement with 1919 and counter sniping
4.Priest commander (1911+Mortar HT) mine+shutdown weapon team spam in early game

UKF

1.Mobile assault ? (mattress+mother of all nade)
2.Royal engineer (i will survive button + AVRE)
3.Weapon rigement (Tommy with laser gun on the Halftrack)
4.artillery regiment ? (fastest shutdown shwer HQ world record)

Ostheer
1.Lighting war (G43+anti tank loiter)
2.Elite troop (G43+Tiger ace) heavy life insurance with dept
3.commander with mortar HT and artillery (good against Dshk ? and company of civilization)
4.commander with scope ,artillery and P4 command tank (scope + stug spam with aura)

OKW
1.Special Operations Doctrine (command panther) life insurance
2.Luftwaffe Ground Forces Doctrine (mother of all nade+counter sniping)
3.Elite Armored Doctrine (HEAT round and Sturmtiger) make tier 2 great again button and Sturmtiger..... you know that
4.Fortifications Doctrine (artillery+Pak 43) S-mine spam and no more civilization button

There are some great doctrine like lend lease or breakthrough and scarvenger ,but since i haven't use it myself im sure other will discuss about those commander

+1 for guard motor tactics.

Should probably specify game mode but Hector pretty much nailed it for 1v1 (though I personally like Guard Motor and Shock Rifle for SU).

If you're talking team games then certain commanders get a bump obviously - Breakthrough, Elephant, and LeFH Doctrines for Axis, CalliOP for USF, etc.

My apologies if it wasn't clear. My original post does ask for 1vs1 and teamgames.

Otherwise, discuss away =D

Commando regiment is pretty lulzy in teamgames because of mortar cover and the OPieop uncounterable bombing run.

Other than that, I pretty much think that they've been covered here.

for me the best commander ( i ussualy play with Wehrmacht)
