What's the best way to kill them? From a perspective of all three factions (British, American & Soviet).

Wipe out as many engineers as possible, before trying to beat him.
Obviously rely on AT guns, Tank destroyers and flanking from behind.
The most important thing: IF YOU KNOW YOU CANT FINISH IT OFF YET, DO NOT TRY TO... wait for a better chance. The worst thing is when you lose your nerves and send all your tanks to circle around a heavy with 50%+ health left and covered with another two AT guns from behind.

Killing it is not the a thing to worry about since its a high priority and often pinged from everyone so ...

Pro tips:
Lay mines everywhere ...a damaged engine kingtiger is a dead kingtiger or even force it to retreat which saves you the trouble ...yes who said you have to destroy it since its too slow so it takes forever to travel from a locatio to another so often it becomes just baggage


Believe it or not sometimes sparing the kingtiger when you can destroy it is actually the way to go...especially in the very late game where tanks are everywhere ...axis players will have tons of engineers to repair it since it takes forever so thats your best chance to push your enemy off the cliff by artying the engineers if you managed to successfully pinpoint its location

Delying or denying repairs buys you alot of time if not the entire match

Conclusion:
Crippled Kingtiger is a baggage

Kingtiger is an engineers black hole

Wait for him to overextend and then punish him, normally you should aim to pressure the Germans so if they do get a Big Cat, it's their last chance before being wiped off the map or losing to VP pressure, so prepare accordingly, usually sometimes even sending it back to be repaired can be as good as killing as it becomes dead weight giving you more time to prepare to kill it.
