What usually gets somewhat standardized is the standard performance of a unit.

Afterwards every unit gets some ability goodies according to the faction's design.

Its not really that simple on 4v4 match, GrW 34 counter barrage is vet 1. they can flare u 1st and barrage your mortar before you can counter them

And you talking about mid to late game counter



IMO on early game + flares + standardized performance it is so hard to counter 6 men pm-41 on that early stage

Easy fix: don’t play 4v4

The counter barrage minimizes micro and let's you focus on something else. While the power balance of these secondary abilities can of course be discussed, you present it highly biased. Also, as sad as it is: 4v4 matches are not a good reference for balancing units because the whole design of the game does not scale well (starting as early as map size etc).
In smaller modes the flare is good, but also a mun drain. There's more space to maneuver, and less unit density, which means that your flare will give you less information and is therefore not as much worth it as in dense 4v4s where you're guaranteed to discover something.

yes i agree with it, it's just on 4v4 or 3v3 match IMO, where there's no room to manuever

even on the weekend we can play 4v4 custom match, with still some people waiting to get a chance to play
