Thread: 1750€ Alienware EU tournament & $1500 NA24 May 2014, 21:08 PM Jump back to quoted post24 May 2014, 20:39 PMVonIvan 2 days, already have over 100 sign-ups for Europe, and over 50 for North America. This is why community events need to be shown on the front page of CoH2 in-game every time an event has been planned. +1 In: Events Central
Thread: Who will win the ESL Weekend 1on1 Cup #1?24 May 2014, 19:48 PM I think Jesulin will win but I can't not cheer for my buddy and clan-mate Con! GL Con! You got this bro. All four of these guys are awesome though - no matter who wins, I'll be happy. Really looking forward to the games tomorrow. In: Events Central
Thread: 1750€ Alienware EU tournament & $1500 NA24 May 2014, 17:29 PM Jump back to quoted post24 May 2014, 16:27 PMAmiPolizeiFunk It's great news that Alienware is hosting these two tournies. I sincerely hope they reconsider having the Grand Finals on Minsk Pocket and Langreskaya Winter, though. Yeah... about that... it should be Kholodny Summer or Semos Winter in my opinion.

Thread: 1750€ Alienware EU tournament & $1500 NA24 May 2014, 01:00 AM Definitely a good idea to let everyone know. Hopefully coh2.org can put up a news post in the near future - and maybe we can somehow convince Relic to put it on their official site as well? And maybe we should keep this thread bumped. Perhaps I'm being too crazy about the whole thing but it'd be so sweet to see this succeed massively. In: Events Central
Thread: 1750€ Alienware EU tournament & $1500 NA23 May 2014, 22:38 PM You're a bit late to the party Barton but thanks for making the post. Everyone should definitely participate - if we could fill up all the slots I imagine they'd host more events in the future. Gogogogooggo everyone sign up. In: Events Central
Thread: CieZ/OMGPOP vs VonIvan/Hans - Epic Game23 May 2014, 21:33 PM Helluva game on Minsk Pocket - down to the wire. So many awesome plays/mistakes from both sides. Tons of action, crazy pushes, epic counter-pushes. GG WP In: Replays
Thread: ESL 1on1 Cup #1 Players List and Stream Schedule23 May 2014, 18:46 PM Looks like a really solid group of players, I'm definitely looking forward to seeing these games! GL to everyone In: News
Thread: Guards + Sniper Combo.. hilariously easy22 May 2014, 03:10 AM Won't really work in 1v1 anymore. Still really strong in 2v2 although I prefer Sniper, Sniper, Con, M3, Guard, Guard. Actually requires a lot more micro than most people give it credit for. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Mines against Ost; Too efficient22 May 2014, 03:02 AM The new AoE profile has screwed up mines, significantly increasing their effectiveness. I can't imagine that this wouldn't get fixed in the near future, but... you never know. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Soviet Support team or Why would Soviets use combined arms?22 May 2014, 02:53 AM I always pick up ZiS as Germans (unless I already have 2 AT guns, in which case I destroy it), just like I always pick up PaKs as Soviet. The ironic thing is that Soviets love PaKs because they want a really strong AT gun to kill the heavier German tanks that are normally huge threats, while the Germans (at least in my case) like the ZiS because it lets us barrage the hordes of Conscripts/Maxims running around mid/late game. Overall though I'll agree that the PaK is stronger. If I had to choose one and only one, I'd always pick the PaK. I consider the mortars to be pretty equal. German one is good normally, with a sub-par Vet 1 ability - the Soviet mortar is sub-par normally but has a great Vet 1 ability. Soviet mortar is also a lot more durable than the German mortar, and is shooting at smaller squads, which increases the chance that it will force a retreat. In the current meta I actually prefer Maxims over MG42s. It's already difficult to flank a lone Maxim, and when you have 2-3 in close proximity to each other it is literally impossible. They're significantly better than MG42s when garrisoned and now that rifle grenades barely scratch them they're really hard to dislodge. Overall I think Soviet combined arms is equally as good as German combined arms in a 1v1, and in team games it is considerably stronger than German combined arms. In: COH2 Balance
