thats the problem, they have the biggest amout of useles units
This is what I think is the crucial problem. I don't play Soviets much but when I do play them or play against them, I notice how whenever somebody uses anything but the meta 'cheese', they lose or have huge problems. Some people manage to pull some good shit off with units like Katyusha or T-34/76, but those are really rare instances. Ofc I played a match against Luvnest once and he demolished me with nothing but Conscripts but that's
for you.
I always see the same shit, it's like Soviet was designed to be cheese or spam or bacon or however you wanna name it. KV-8 + Pakwall, Maxim Spam and 1 penal in Scoutcar are all good tactics that come into my mind right now for the Soviets. They are just so insanely limited.
