confirms Australian Magic's statement, at almost any given range, AE have less DPS than SP, in case that SP also have a received accuracy modifier, they will never ever lose vs AE in a equal setup.

Kubel is a support unit. One SP one Kubel squad. Kubel helps SP to win engagement.
What's the difference? Except that Kubel is a way better at suppressing than VF was.

It's not about unit. It's about effect. VF was too strong because it forced 1 squad to retreat. Kubel can force few squads to retreat in the early game but VF was OP and Kubel is not according to Relic.
Like I said it was not about unit. It was about punishing effect.

Volley Fire was another big issue that we wanted address; the design intention of this ability was to be used as a support ability to give rear echelon combat utility. However what we ended up seeing were rear echelons winning engagement that shouldn’t have won. There was also an exploit with the modifers that were applied when rear echelons equipped with bazookas would fire bazooka shells rapidly. With the new implementation of the ability Volley fire will now have its strength and weakness. The suppression modifers have also been tweaked so there will be very rare cases that a squad will get pinned.
