High Skill USF gameplay is just so micro intensive

Just using your post as a stepping stone to refer to the okw side of blobbing, contrast to OP’s USF blob complaint.

The saving grace of Fusilier blobs is their high munitions cost for upgrade and terrible performance until that upgrade and bad synergy with Luchs and Puma since you need munis for medkits. All of this makes Fusilier blobs uncommon in 1v1. In 2v2+ that’s not as much of a problem so you see them way more.

I will say this: I think Pfusies should lose the 6th man if they are to get G43s. Keep them as they are but without the extra man with the recon package.

blame the map & mode, not the faction.

There isnt too much ways to do crazy 1v1 style flanking in 2v2 on camping in the woods

Nothing really unexpected here, there are like 10 extremely good players across all factions, 20 more good ones and then above average starts.

Top 100 in CoH isn't exactly same level as top 100 in starcraft or warcraft.

Fuzzi, DaPopeCoH, Zeva the angry Dutchman, JaeForJett (50+ with EF factions), Tightrope (40-56ish), TwistedTootsy (non usf), borobadger (40ish), Tiefflieger, Finnded, etc

Some of them have have 20ish ranks with some factions, but I think if they have 2 50ish ranks they qualify.

Now you can say they’re not well known, in which case I’d say that’s not up to you to decide since you don’t play 1s.

There are two types of genius. Ordinary geniuses do great things, but they leave you room to believe that you could do the same if only you worked hard enough. Then there are magicians, and you can have no idea how they do it.

Also, "blobbing" shouldn't be frown upon so much by the community.

It's like getting cannon(SC2)/tower (WC3/AoE2) and blaming the game.

The problem with blobbing currently is that not all factions have good counters to it, whether it's disappointing MGs that don't suppress/group suppress or lack of rocket arty.

Every single faction has HMG.
HMGs are more effective, the bigger crowd they are shooting at.

OKW, UKF and soviets have flame tanks.
Ost has blob nuker(brummbar) and THE best off-map against blobs, the pin plane loiter.
Ostwind is so overpoweringly good it needed a limit of hitting 2 models maximum.

All factions have very effective blob countering tools.
Counter doesn't mean "1 click and everything is wiped".

Could we say that the word teamwork is a teamwork of 2 words?

Jump back to quoted post8 Apr 2020, 20:43 PMWiderstreit

In German it consists of 3 words. "Zusammenarbeit" = "Togetherwork" xD

Is this a troll thread?

Imagine defining teamwork as all units in one blob a move across the maps.

Nobody would be complaining about blobs if indirect fire was more forgiving to individual squads but had more AoE. That way the MG would suppress and a mortar would lower the health of every squad on the blob.

Would that help with Riflemen blobs though? I like the idea in general, but Riflemen don't exactly sit still very often, they're usually trying to push up into your face as much as possible

Jump back to quoted post9 Apr 2020, 01:05 AMT.R. Stormjäger

Whatever probably a super dumb idea. Don’t mind me.

Jump back to quoted post9 Apr 2020, 01:08 AMSkysTheLimit

They used to be able to 1 hit KO full health squads, now they reliably deal damage that's more spread out

I understand OP here.

A poor balance design has invaded 2v2's, allowing low skill strategies, like an early blob to be rather succesfull. Even when it can be countered, there is no word about it being easy. Only those who are trolling say such things. This shows how biased some players are and how unconstructive their feedback really is.

To anyone that will undoubtely quote me for saying this, be warned. Any blatant denial or adhominem will prove my point right.

One thing is riflemen UP, other very different is riflemen balance promote stupid strategies.

I will punish the same way axis blobtard strategies. Its not the prupose of a fine tuned balance.
