More facts on command panther as a counter...

you dont need T4, it can spot for itself and other anti tank which means infinite free shots and kiting, +50% damage.....assuming theres 1-2 shreks and a raketen or two in there the ttk is even lower....all for 35 munitions.

Am I missing something here. STG Obers in this doc also rape commandos because they have a 25 range camo detection ability....and infil nades are always good vs stationary sections along with the flare being amazing too...sooooo

Great job! As a brand-new CoH2 player, I really appreciate the detail and comments. Starting to get my head around all of this because of it. Super helpful.

Thank you you're so very welcome.

that last part didnt make a whole lot of sense but I see where yore coming from

Ill use myself as an example. So around WFA release,I fell in love with USF, laddering them in 1's. I went from 1,500, to 1000,into the top 500....until.......The first time I played against top 10 competition...which was vs VonIvan OKW.

No I didnt learn unit timings or anything like that, I didnt know how to micro any better...but I learned pretty quickly(FROM ONE game) that:

• Denying or taking an important Building in enemy lines is important
  
• Throwing nades at multiple engagements instead of one is an easy way to win a game
  
  

those 2 things alone is enough to have the edge for an entire game over other people around or below your level..But you will never learn things like that from some rank700 vs rank 700 club match. You have to get your ass kicked to start kicking ass. Im just a firm believer in that.

Yeah,I lost in 5 minutes back then.. Yes I probably wouldve had more fun,or "learned more"(what are you gonna learn from someone who is also screwing up?) in a 30 minute game vs someone below/equal to me. But I learned those 2 VERY IMPORTANT things just from one game vs top competiton while being an average player at best at the time. 2 things that I took away from that game that are still very important to me to this day. And every game thereonafter vs top players,I learned more,and more,and more.....I improved from losing in 5 minutes and looking like I didnt deserve to be on the same map,to losing in 30 and giving a fight every time, and/or winning or coming very close to doing so.

So ,I totally disagree that there is no learning effect. There is so much to learn..Like I could list the things I learned from each player that stomped me over the past 2 years.

This isn't realistic, the Centaur hits at 10-12 minute mark, you won't make it to the 15 minute mark with someone like Jove at the wheels of that thing.

I am a true competitor myself, but I am a realistic person by nature. A few games vs a Top 3 player will not suddenly make me able to hold out any longer when he has complete and total control over the situation and the game.

I said that In a way that you could misinterpret, forgive me.
im not telling you how to counter the centaur; it's one of the few clearly broken things in this game. Obviously if someone is already better, and they come out with a broken unit, of course you will lose.

I'm just talking in general. I don't believe all top players abuse broken stuff. I'm not gonna make a list of the abusers and the genuine good players, but hopefully you understand what I'm saying.

Embrace it. You should want to be tested and challenged.

Pillow fighting with people your level is no fun after a while, and Neither is seal clubbing people below you.

But getting into a slug fest with a top 50 and possibly pulling an upset against someone superior... I mean that's what it's all about!!!

Another fun thing to doee how long you last, then go to the relic leaderboard/players recent games and see how you compare to their other opponents. That gives you a sense of accomplishment too

++ it makes you better. and when you finally "get good" and surpass them it's an amazing feeling to know that "times have changed" when you're the one beating THEM in under 20 minutes instead of the other way around.
