In the WC 2020 we saw extensive use of 222. Is the unit too cost efficient? Should the unit be nerfed? should the unit be replaced in the early game by redesigned 221 and become available later and redesigned?

I like the 222 as it is right now. I don't think it's too oppressive or weak.

I think the 222 is perfect at the moment, it is just that we OST players are locked into doing the same thing over and over again due to the game's balance feeling really stale and everything else has been nerfed to complete utter boredom.

I'd rather see other units being buffed than nerfing any units which are seen as overused. That endless cycle of asking for nerfs when something seems to be working must be broken.

Also, I must insist that a tournament seeing a lot of action from a given unit does not make it automatically point to a nerf. According to the logic, other units like the Jackson has barely seen any play in the tournament at all, does that mean it needs a buff?

222 is fine. No need to nerf it. Just because it's used a lot doesn't mean it's over-performing. Correlation/causation.

Its timing is a too early with Osttruppen builds, otherwise it's fine.

I think that is an issue with the current meta and the use of the USF jeep and potentially the UC of UKF.
I am not sure if the 251 and 222 in themselves are in perfect balance (meaning both are equally viable choices), but the 222 does not feel too strong.
