Loving the Rise of Nations OST in the background

3:50 I kinda recommend teching grenades early as soon as you see 222, 223, or double kubel or at least when you get your guards out, or if you lose control of a critical garrison like your side's barn of Langreskaya, middle of Faymonville, etc. because conscripts bleed extremely fast against them with their increased target size. Sometimes it's worth it to tech early and avoid the MP bleed, or even surprise a greedy LV rush and punish with Guards, rather than to save the fuel for the T-70. of course this may differ.

The Rise of Nations music brought back so many memories

That was a great video. Loved the content. Super helpful!

One more, great! Thx for u excellent work with all factions! 👏👏👏

thanks for the guide jared leto

Love your hat! And cool guide too 😁

Nice build order. In addition to what you said, I recently have tried another build order for soviets and usually got a very good result. Cons - Maxim - Cons - Cons - Cons (replaceable with one elit unit of the commander)- depending on the enemy skill maybe a Zis and/or mortar. Medic If I am floating manpower (which usually happens), another maxim. Then play defensively to get my fast T34/76. I could field a T34 couple of mins before the enemy as most players don't expect double maxim these days. Then play aggressively until the opponents medium comes. after that continue with SU85 or katy or commander options.

Not bad, though getting t2 slows down your map prescence in the opening quite a bit. If i were to make a suggestion id say ce-ce-3x con-heal-t2-maxim-t3-lv, effectivelely replacing the 2 cp callins in the video with maxims

oh man the rise of nations soundtrack... great video btw!!!!! use that song in a 4v4 while playing soviets you get free for mother russia ability

YESS the one I was waiting for, time to noob it up on ladder.

Leaving a comment for the algorithm, thank you

Really good as main soviet player ty.

thank you so much dad

Penal Battalions, tier 1 spec ops. Conscripts, “hold my vodka…” tier 0 black ops being deployed.

haha this is amazing!

Thanks for the video, I am a starcraft 2 player trying to get into coh2

WHAT A CHAD!!!

Thank you for sharing this wonderful guide! I can't wait for the UKF guide. May I ask what are your opinions on T1 openings? And what situation is T1 build viable?

T1 opening is basically a cheese you can pull off really successfully vs okw, but t1 builds are almost always weaker in lategames since penals dont scale as well as cons

Great video, only thing annoying me was that the hotkeys were not the grid setup 11

I like how the game balance is so munted that shock troopers are not considered meta and guards are the most op anti everything infantry in the game.

They are def not meta, but not bad either. I try my best to contain myself in these guides, too not make them too broad or too confusing, but any 2cp call in works in place of guards even though its not the most common

@@elpern I'm just reminiscing about 2016 when the game was very different but I thought it was the peak.

It maybe just me, but I like to go with double flamers against OKW or particularly aggressive Ostheer builds (Assault grens, Ostruppen). Against OKW, simply putting pressure on the opponent cutoff or muni point, as well as their Sturmpio squad is usually enough to prevent any kind of mines being planted, or even if they do get mines, just face tank it with scripts. Against Ostheer its a bit more uncommon and usually i might consider getting a 3rd engi with the sweeper or replacing a wiped engi with sweeper, but this is definitely suboptimal and I usually still go sweeper against Ostheer.

Where is the best place to find builds? I played original coh and back then gamereplays was the best source for stuff like that?

Its mostly the same, watching replays/casts/gameplay of good players on twitch and youtube. If you want to be more active finding stuff you can easily check live games in the coh2 client, and order by rank to watch

Dont know what to say, i kinda hate soviets!. conscripts get murdered by grenadiers, tommy sections and riflemen. Against volksgrenadiers they feel a bit more on the par but still, it is extremely difficult to win early battles for me:S Also, late game strategy is pretty simple minded to say the least. Just pump out T35's while other factions have more interesting and versatile options. From building random bunkers somewhere or going heavy infantry armies or what not. I find bunker building in late game being pretty useful just for general map control and vision they provide which makes it harder for enemy to flank your main army.

"they get murdered by riflemen and section" yeah cause they're not supposed to fight them and while cons will loose to grens long range, they beat them short range, at least until grens get a 42 and cons are so cheap to reinforce, and w/ 7 man basically unkillable in green cover ontop of that, they offer great utility with molotovs, snares, merge, and laying green cover and mines

@@spinosaurusiii7027 Its a matter of taste i suppose. I find other main line infantry being more versatile than those. That being said, as i mentioned before, im not all that big fan of the limitations of soviet army. I find other armies have alot more variety of how to approach things!
