Ostwinds are not a huge problem on their own, although they have been buffed far more than was necessary.
The problems emerge if the ost player build 2 or 3 pgrenz and upgrades them with schrecks. Add in a couple of Mg42 and a couple of paks and all of a sudden its just cancer overload. Things become worse if a commander with sprint is chosen.
Another truly pathetic example of over buffing units without considering how people will abuse the change.
Every patch just brings more annoying shortsighted BS changes.

sounds like a good use of combines arms??? exactly the purpose of OST and thanks for showing the balance team has done a good job. If combines arms as you've described is not what ost supposed to do and is cancer, please explain how to use the faction?

Combined arms is not the issue and any attempt to make that argument is simplistic. The issue is that the ostwind and pgrenz were overbuffed and when used together are cheesy and braindead stupid. Numerous arguments have been made opposing unit power creep and the balance team dismiss those arguments on the basis they know better. Nothing is more frustrating than increased probability of squad wipesand that is exactly what this patch has done.

People cry that Ostwind is OP, I say no. You guys say P4 is OP, I say no. At least, T34 is more OP than both of them.

Before Ostwind was definitely nerfed and for quite a long time! It was not even a viable/proper option!

ostwind was perfectly fine, it was just unfavoured.. not underpowered.. the pIV was simply the better, all round, option
now both units are ridiculous
your bias is showing, how can you compare the ostwind to the centaur now, the ostwind is much quicker and now more effective against tanks and just as good against AI and it's cheaper.. ridiculous axis fanbois

you are absolutely an axis fanboi which pretends to be otherwise, you constantly talk about underpowered axis units on the official forums and get routinely destroyed by the ridiculousness of your suggestions and the inherent bias in them, you fool absolutely no one "balance_gamer"

ostwind was perfectly fine, it was just unfavoured.. not underpowered.. the pIV was simply the better, all rounder, option, the correct approach to balance was to offer a more defined role for the unit rather than just being marginally better than the pIV against infantry, ie buff its moving accuracy slightly because axis are apparently too brain dead to figure out how to use it effectively in it's previous state and at the same time nerf the pIV AI to give both units more defined roles, the balance team has stupidly done the exact opposite
now both units are ridiculous

In which alternate reality is a T34/76 better than Ostwind and P4?

So you mean a more defined role at killing infantry, the Ostwind’s primary role in the tier?

In same, where a P4 is cheaper and Ostwind has more pen than a T34.
