but it's not funny if you explain it
Players who overwhelmingly play one faction, regardless of which faction it is, tend to become convinced that their faction is weak and the factions they play against are strong.
CoH 2 is a game of positioning and probability, so if you have a confirmation bias (you want to believe that Faction Y is overpowered) it's incredibly easy to find validation for that belief.
Balance threads often devolve into shouting matches between these one-faction players, both oblivious to the fact that if you strip away the faction labels, they all sound pretty much the same.
I think British is fine. Soviet is also strong, but requires skill. But the USF is weak in a 2x2 mode.
I’m telling you about the results of the tournament, where people played for many hours in the game, for all fractions. And they also lost in tournaments. The same VonIvan admitted that the choice of the USF was a mistake, and that with the current balance it is not playable. Do you want to quote his words?
I don't rely on my game. If the USF were as successful in tournaments as other factions, I would say that the problem is in me, and I do not have the skill.
