Profile of Cardboard Tank

Why is Paranomia still not banned? There exist like 14 replays where he insults others or wishes them cancer.

I don't want to buff panther though. it used to be op af and i feel that overwhelming allies mediums are making it shine less.

Isn´t that a contradiction? You think the Panther shouldn´t be buffed. Yet you think the units it faces are overwhelming? They are overwhelming because the Panther can´t fight them for cost.

They should have invited Paranomia to the tourney just for the lols.

That would be the first tournament in which a player would wish his opponent cancer in chat.

Right direction but still nobody would build the Panther. Nobody who hasn´t won the game already.

Ostheer doesn´t cut it at the moment. Imo that is because their last Tier and call ins are severely underperforming.

T4 has been made cheaper and the new Brummbar is great. But it actually doesn´t make me go T4. Most Ostheer players are still stuck in the T3 meta and who is going to blame them for that if everything is better in that tier bar the Ostwind. The StuG fulfills the AT role way better than any Panther ver could and the Panzer IV is a decent all-rounder. Both Tiers struggle versus their British counterparts (Cromwell, Centaur, Comet).

While it is okay that Ostheer T3 is inferior, T4 should ofer better utility. The Panther isn´t needed. The Panzerwerer is mediocre at best. The major concern about T4 is remains the weak Panther. I would appreciate a total redesing of the vehicle (less speed, more firepower). Nobody needs a Nascar that dives into enemy lines to expose its weak rear armor and that is instantly dead when getting snared. Snaring a Panther is incredibly easy as it is designed to go into your territory.

A further concern is the terrible performance of Ostheer call in vehicles. The Tiger doesn´t deflect much and the Elefant is too slow and easy to finish due to the armor nerfs - a deadly combination. To support it properly you are supposed to overcommit into AT - often losing you the game.

There is a reason why the Ostheer win rates are so low and in my opinion that is them not fulfilling their intended role of lategame strenght. Allied AT has been buffed through all factions, while German armor has eaten the nerf stick several times. This couldn´t work out.

tl;dr: Panther redesign, Tiger armor buff, Elefant needs slightly more mobility.
