Top 5 Maps for Sniping in World of Tanks

Beware of snipers when playing on these maps in World of Tanks.

Malinovka

Finally, one map that is absolutely ideal for snipers and miserable for players who can’t see them is Malinovka. A sniper that spawns in the south is going to immediately rush to a few locations, one of which is the row of houses lining the field. This spot, while obvious, grants the sniper clear views right across to the enemy base.

Then there is the swamp, full of tiny shrubs and shallow water, perfect for a sniper looking to get an angle across the way. Snipers can frolic around this area, freely landing hits on any Lights that come zipping along looking to spot. If you’re not playing a sniper, and you load into Malinovka, good luck.

For anyone not playing a sniper, Malinovka is one of the most hated maps, as the open fields and lack of corridors means you’re going to get demolished if you step out of line. For fans of SPGs, TDs, and just general sniping, Malinovka is one of the best maps in World of Tanks.

Sniping holds a special place in a lot of tankers hearts. Being able to obliterate an enemy vehicle from the other side of a map fills them with joy. But, for a sniper to really excel, it doesn't hurt to have the ideal map and terrain.
