Doing what someone did last time, I think we all want to see people's opinion about faction balance. I think we can all agree that 3v3 and 4v4 is bias towards the germans, so I'm not going to add a question for that.
My personal opinion is that Soviets are strongest in 1v1 and 2v2, OKW weakest 1v1 and USF weakest 2v2

I would wait at least 1 week to make a statement.
My controls weren't working
And if they were, you were playing dishonorably,
And if you weren't, you were playing without skill,
And if you were, it's not fun to play that way,
And if it is, you only care about winning.

Lol still people thinking soviets are strongest 1v1.
I guess they haven't played the patch yet.

Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

right now in 1v1 balance i would say OKW > soviets = ostheer > USF.
However this is just the general feeling i got, might be wrong, we must wait and see.

I guess we will wait 3 more days to see what people think.
@Katitof What do you think is wrong with the Soviets actually? I see them as being the best faction overall.
The eastern factions are the strongest at every stage of the game with a doctrinal boost(though Ost don't really need them) to them imo. Just my opinion

The core. Maxims, snipers, zis and to an extend T-70 are viable.
Every other unit is simply bad, over reliance on the doctrines limits you to three if you want to be competitive and yea, still conscripts, forcing you to go for snipers/maxims/elite infantry spam.

Scripts are great, Engies are meh without flamers, Penals can be ok, M3's are great, Mortar is decent, M5 is great, T34 is great, SU85 is ok may need some love, SU76 sucks, Kat is great.
Stock units look good to me.
Sniper spam makes you slow, Maxim spam in a 1v1 scenario has glaring weaknesses, Elite inf spam doesnt make sense because it isnt economical at all.

There is no 'strongest faction' in 2v2 imo.
It's just not balanced.

All posts made are about situations in 2v2's. Not a 1v1 player.

I'm having difficulties with the soviets. But I suck, and don't do meta strats (because I don't wanna and I suck, not specifically in that order)

Well, like I said, I don't do the cheese partly because I don't have the micro, the multitasking, the skills to pull it off.
But I like saying that I try something different. So hipster

i feel like its more of a reverse popularity contest "vote for the faction you dont like in hopes that this poll will somehow lead to them getting nerfed"

Didn't even realise it would end up as a reverse popularity poll until he said it. I just hope people don't vote the factions they hate.
Shhhh...don't say it too loud.
