Counter to tarnatula/marksman spam

[Tomcat]

Most of my games now turns into tarnatula/sniper spam or transforms into artilery battles (who has bigger range). Large units seems to be useless as tarnatula tanks damage enough and clears chaff well.

How to counter it? I am clueless.

so far to beat tarantula and marks spam, sabertooths and arty have been doing me a solid
and of course my own marks just not an over investment. 4 marks with rapid fire, range and elite seem to be able to deal with mass marksmen reliably.
and the good ol shield fang regen tank combo can hold the line long enough to kill them

If your opponent over-invests into tarantulas, hackers have a field day.

Marksman : Emp
Tanks : Armor Pierce
Arclight : Charged
Storm : Emp
Pheonix : Charged
Roley Poley : Ranged.

All cheap solutions.

The game meta definitley changed a lot, i started to lose mmr after the patch as well. What changed is giants now far less efficient, most games are not about "who builds 10 giants faster" type matches and if you try to force this you will be outplayed. This build now is definitley about diversity of low-mid units with 2-3 giants.
