Strategy

As the Flank Sniper

The Flank Sniper has characteristics of both the Flank Guard's coverage and the Sniper's power.

• Lead your shots to account for enemy tanks' movement, especially when fighting at a long distance.
• Use your higher FoV to avoid tanks stronger than you and engage with tanks you're strong against.

Against the Flank Sniper

• Drone tanks can easily overwhelm a Flank Sniper even with its coverage. Beware of the Flank Sniper firing back, though!
• Tanks with strong firepower can also overpower the Flank Sniper's bullets and force them to retreat.
• Mobile tanks can outmaneuver the Flank Sniper's shots and get close.
