Can any Infantry unit beat Shock Troops?
Militants, nope. Flames, nope. Missile or Lasers, super nope. Are Shocks basically unbeatable one on one?

if you are quick with the fingers, snipers.

Right, cause you have to keep running away right?
A good player will take out a shockwave squad with a sniper squad without loosing a single member, either by kiting (shoot,run,shoot,run,...), or by blocking with another unit.
Rifleman will defeat a shockwave if they start attacking first and are 2v1. If shockwave defend, they won‘t win even 2v1, but will do some damage. Keep in mind that rifleman=10 tib, while shockwave=40.
I personally send rhinos or wheels at them. Talons and chembuggies work fine, too. And obviously tech units.
But don‘t send shockwave or flames at them, the defenders advantage is too high. Your squad will die, and theirs will still have 2 members. If you send them, send 2 at the same time.
- So bottom line is, there is no Infantry unit that can stand toe to toe, one on one with Shock Troops? Doesn’t that seem a little OP? I mean, there is no one on one counter amongst the like building? This has got to be the only unit in the game that has no like building counter.
