Comparing yourself with the best gets you better not vice versa.

Basilone isnt comparing himself with SC hes comparing relic with blizzard which is just unfair if you take into consideration that the financial capabilities of those two companies are completely different. We have to be realistic, CoH is probably never going to be as big as Starcraft. On a side note: I dont think RNG affects teh skill ceiling of coh2, jst take a look at the ridiculous win ratio of some of the top player. It would be impossible to get such win rates if the better player wouldnt win in 90% of the games.
The term RNG is so overused in the CoH2 community, most people dont realize that coh2 is based on rng. Every single engagement is decided by rng. If people want to play a game without luck involved they should just switch games and play Starcraft or chess. Imo a game that involves a lot of luck can still be competitive . It might become problematic when people play for huge amounts of money but as long the as competitiveness is just for fun i dont see a problem with rng.

I took part in the first qualifier of SNF5 and Ipkaifungs beta tourney. Both were a lot of fun BUT also really really stressful since all games were played at two days. (SNF doesnt count though because i was kicked out in Round 3) I would rather like to see something smiliar to the current reddit tourney where players have to play one round per week so its less exhausting. Another problem is the fact that only top players have a realistic chance to be succesful in a tourney due to the used seeding system where lower and middle seeds will have to face top players pretty early. Maybe a league would be better ?

-20 players/teams
-19 games for everyone
-two games per round
-winner gets 2 points
-loser 0 points
-in case of a draw both get 1 point
-two games per week
-if someone doesnt show up he gets the loss
-if someone cant play due to work,school,university or whatever he gets the loss
-if two players are not able to find a date it is count as a draw (both get 1 point)
-the prize pool gets split over the first 8 players so theres a realistic chance for everyone to win something even its not much
-if there are enough players and referees maybe even arrange more than one league for different time zones ?

sure only people who could afford to play 4 games of CoH a week could participate but thats roughly what my CoH2 league would look like

@sluzbenik

no 3 hour time commitments for a casual RTS, thanks.

ironically you spent 1904 hours on a "Casual RTS". LOL

Akosi youre wrong. If the blue player caps 1 and 2 on the left side the red player will be fully cut off ! 3 is only connected to the base as DrunkinGambit said.

someone is butthurt

thats exactly what you said to me after the game above (wow youre a snappy guy!) and btw i was just making fun with a friend

Well microed snipers. Backed by one MG. Backed by two G43 grens.

You're welcome.

German snipers are buggy as hell. At least attack move does not always work and sometimes they just run straight into the enemy infantry.
I personally dont think 1 cp shocks mean auto win for soviets, im not even sure if theyre op at all, BUT its definitely not fun to play against them that early because Shocks dont fit into the early game mechanics since they destroy all T1 units in a few seconds.
