So recently ive played quite a few games where opponent really all in blobs with sturm officer for aura and mark target volks for dps and panzerfusiliers for vision

This incredibly obnoxious playstyle thats low apm turns out to be incredibly effective for how low effort it is. While i won the games due to the nature of 1v1, it took considerable more effort than it took him. On other hand outcome could have been drastically different if he death blobbed more “strategically” i lag a bitmore or whatever

Ive been wondering wat is the most low effort counter? Ive been playing this strat myself in group games its very effective due to not needing to cap.

Please dont say spam mg because thr blob will deathloop mg before it suppresses. Certainly so with mark target. Also dont assume enemy has no tanks to contest your own.

Curious to hear ppls experiences

Target the officer. It forces anything in its aura to retreat when the officer model goes down.

It's such a crippling weakness that it neuters this strategy almost entirely at high levels.

Focus the officer and try to go for the munitions as much as you can perhaps, since the STG44 / Gew43 / Sturmofficer abilites are really munitions heavy.

And somehow surviving the blob should give you an advantage later, as the Breakthrough doctrine doesn't offer anything late-game (except JT for team games).

Best counter is light vehicle. T70 prefered. But if you can't get a light, target the officer as previously said, otherwise blob yourself. The officer may be an aura unit, but its aura is actually pretty weak for the investment.
