opening with 2 sturmpios? Jaeger spam? repeated Sector Assault? 1 Panther and 3 panzer 4?
You wasted every single abuse card in this game and got rekt by sheer use of combined arms and resource saving.
The IS2 is hardly the reason you lost, you mismanaged your own blob and lost all your core infantry during one attack.
You played pretty dirty, but well played though, the jeager blob was the least of it.

Kharkov is an horrendous map, hmg spam galore, bad cutoff placement, hard to play extensively, so blobbers are going to feel in heaven, and makes flanking impossible to counter, normally, so you see a lot of mg spam when playing on this map, which in return is totally impossible to counter( just a race for time until you get something to beat the spam, you will already be outmatched)
I guess the only good aspect to it, is that you can't get 10 minutes stomped by players who manage to camp fast like you would in Westwall or Caen.
Still, the whole map is a hassle to move around on, if you spawn north good luck with timing, you will be fighting for the cutoff the entire game, and then have to figure out how to wipe the turtling hmgs or guards and any team weapon.
Why even bother? Just remove all these bad maps from 1v1, leave the few good ones and 1v1 players are much happier.
It's not a subjective opinion, everybody has been vocal about westwall, caen, kharkov, angoville, arnhem...
Nobody is going to miss them, or complain about how there are only 4 or 5 maps in the pool.
Actually why are 2v2 maps even in 1s pool? When was the last time you had fun playing 1v1 on Karkov, minsk, or semoskiy?
Well, most of these aren't even here now, I wonder why. |
OP you gotta give more details, what faction against?
There is no pratical way to defend against blob in early game, there is a drawback and an advantage to every play style.
If he blobs a lot, and you find your units outmatched, try to extend over the map.
And it depends also on the map.
Keep in mind that with soviets, doing 3 cons into maxim build is mostly viable, don't try penal builds if you're not yet experienced with that faction.
