Just asking since im creating br3 and br2 set for them at the moment just want to know if there’s a lot on br3 or barely any at all (dont want to get suck up into br3-5 match tbh)
beside i miss moscow and i should probably make a br2 set first but im trusting the soft rule
KV-1 is a brutal tank for br2 to deal with, and you get stick mag PPSH-41s. SVT-38 is probably one of the nicest semi auto rifles in BR3 as a whole besides the M1 garand.
Br 3 soviets are great! Kv 1 is absolutely op once downtiered and t34e stz is also nice (if you played sgrad campaign). Their planes get no real improvement and the br 2 planes are mostly better. Ppsh 41 box has better dispersion than any other smg in br 3 and the 1200 rpm will destroy squads in seconds. Svt 38 is easily the best br 3 rifle due to the fast reload and good sights and dp 27 is alright lmg. Panzerfausts are also really powerful and can deal with every tank frontally
Br2 soviets are literally braindeads, and has absurdly unbalanced matches these days, I don’t suggest it, try ur luck with Br3, if u not downtiered or uptiered u can have more fun there
BR3 Soviets is well armed.
It’s relatively small especially in terms of firearms however the lack of selection doesn’t mean that it would suffer in any way.
Ppsh41 stick mag is all you need, has the least dispersion of all SMGs (because it’s broken).
SVT-38 is generally agreed to be the best BR3 semi-auto rifle.
DP-27 is certainly better than LMGs Japan get at BR3 and depending on play style, also better than the BARs.
KV-1 on BR3 is pure insanity, its more armoured than the average BR4 tank. A well angled KV-1 is a challenge for any tank regardless of BR5.
Soviet aircraft are reliable, they don’t have any fancy fighter-bombers that would dominate like the P-47 but the fighters are very good at dog fighting and the attacker aircraft are very well armed for their BR.
BR3 = Soviet bias lvl max.
You have overpowered and broken tanks (KV-1, T-34 STZ) and smgs (ppsh-41 box that is pretty much BR5 smg but with god tier dispersion or more lack off so in reality BR6 smg).
Semi autos are also better than any other nation at that BR.
If you had opportunity to grab a couple of gold order RMN-50 then you can also use them.
You can also use two paratrooper squads at same time, all armed with PPSh-41 box.
Fighters are really agile and can destroy any Axis planes, other planes bomb load is enough to do it’s job.
Panzerfaust 60 is enough to destroy every single tank in a game in 1-3 rockets. And 95% of the time your first shot will either murder tank or completely immobilize it and kill 3 crewman so it’s a free kill for you anyway.
USSR also has the lewis gun premium at BR3 which is also very good. Not very people own it, but, still, their LMGs at BR3 are limited but excellent similar to Germany
Them or the Western Allies are probably the best BR III, but BR III is generally an odd place, BR II Germany cant really even contest your gear so you can run over them easy, but BR IV-V Germany will run over you efffortlessly too.
PPSh-41 is the best SMG for BR III no contest, nothing comes even close
KV-1 in a BR II-BR III or full BR III will be stupidly survivable against hand held AT
The DP-27 will be poor compared to MG-34 or BAR, but not as bad as the Madsen was compared to its competition
The IL-2 with the rockets is pretty decent, im not plane expert but its likely on pair with the P-38 and surely better than what Germany has to offer.
USSR BR3 is OP … eeerrr I mean well suited for all engagements.
DP27 is decent.
SVT38 is the best semi on BR3. They even have a scoped SVT38 on BR3…
KV1 and T34 = gulag express and a steam roller when facing axis BR2. You have NO chance to kill the KV1 tank with BR2 equipment except you can get close to it…or have a decent pilot in your team.
PPSH41 (stick) - I guess I dont have to say how ridiculous OP this firearm is.
Go and play USSR BR3, it seems to be fun. It is so OP that I desert 75% of all matches where I have to face this bullshit with BR2 equipment.
