I think it is a bad Idea that you both are talking with each other tbh.
You both are living in 2 different Worlds. J4J in 1vs1, and Cpt Blitz in 3vs3 and 4vs4.
To clear some called points out:
1) Top 400 in a 1vs1 means: you are not that good
2) Top 400
RANDOM in 4vs4 does not mean the same: Reason: Too often the matchmaking is fail or your randommates bugsplit or ragequit or leave in the first mins... So its kind of a lottery. It
can but
not have to mean: you are not that good.
3) If you are top 400 in 2vs2-4vs4 as Premade / AT : then you guys are not good.
4) Everyone knows, that in teamgames Axis are in favour. A) because of the Units, B) because of the maps.
Already in 2vs2 double OKW is strong as fuck on many maps. And this goes into 3vs3, 4vs4 as well. BUT as already said in B; it depends on the map. On some maps Wehrmacht are in early/ midgame way better then OKW. BUt if you go for lategame OKW is always better then Wehrmacht. They survive way better arty and other stuff then Wehrmacht.
5) But like when you are a 400 Premade axis team in 4vs4 you will get raped! from other allies team. Because then the own skill is >>> then the balance. But if both teams have almost the same skill then yes--> axis wins in the most cases in teamgames.
6) About Ladder: When you look in the top 10 ladder you often see new teams with 10/0 ... That is sadly broken. New placementsgames gives WAY TO MUCH ELO. (Another reason, why people started to create smurfs for 1vs1 ladder).
The best way to look who is better is: Play customgames bo3 vs each other
About the even top200 sucks in 1vs1. Thats hard and kind of too general. But yes the ladder in 1vs1 changed. For a year or something top 100 was only with good players. Now you find people there, who just spammed games and played alot of in NA time or vs noobs in special EU time, when no good players were searching. There is always a chance to get easier higher ranks when you have enough time for that.
Funfact: Sometimes I win easy vs a top 50 guy, and then in the next game i play vs a 150 and it is an hour game.
