That has norhing to do with it.

stat site parse top 200 players match info. So unless there is less than 200 UKF players in rank, standalone DLC cannot be the execuse for the low match count.

It's slightly different to what it implies. Site creator explained it. While it takes data from top200 players, it also accounts for games played in modes on which those players are not top200.

If someone is ranked top100 in 4v4 random and top1500 in 1v1, his games in 1v1 will be accounted for as well.

The fact that a faction is also less played (you can check the amount of ranked players in coh2 official leaderboard means that you can make 1:1 comparisons between ranks. Someone ranked 200 UKF is way worse than someone ranked 300 as Soviets.

You can view entire march stat if you want(but only supports weekly/daily view at the moment).
And result is worse if you do. haha...

Underpicked & low win ratio means something. If win ratio of 23% doesn't mean something, what does?

And I have to mention that this ML was played im pre-winter patch version. And AFAIK, UKF got nerfed in winter patch. So... good luck to UKF for next ML & 2021.

UKF is in a rough spot, but i'm explaining WHY some of the factors you include can't be translated directly as it been a clear issue.

Each pro player has a distinct playstyle and preference. Even when UKF was broken, some of them just played USF/SU. UKF will always be underpicked unless obnoxious OP at which point it barelys breaks even with been the 2nd most picked faction or on pair with the most picked one.

1v1

320/699
260/620
262/549
309/655

That's 45.62% That's low but fairly in the range of statistically acceptable accounting for the factors i mentioned before.

If you talk about the 4v4 margins, yep, that's more of a clear issue.

I think you are overlooking the fact that blobbing has always been the optimal way of playing at lower levels. At least considering the game modes you play and based your opinion on.
Reducing or increasing DPS won't solve the issue of playing with 2x or 4x popcap and resources on a playing field that doesn't escalate at the same rate.


Cover works for smaller modes (entirely on 1v1 and till midgame starts to kick in in 2v2) because the amount of units at your dispose is lower compared to how much you need to do.
If you want to cover to matter more, you would have to do the opposite of now. Increase drastically DPS and at the same time, cover modifiers. Making the game look like Men of War.


In regards to punishing blobs and MGs specifically, i think it has been overlooked for quite a long time that MGs don't get RA with vet. As well as the fact that light cover created by small explosives exist and that provides so much RA and suppression protection almost passively.

So what can we do about this? Simple; reduce the overall power of infantry squads to force diversity. Move utility to other dedicated squads (i.e. construction to engineer units), lower their DPS (no 2x upgrades, etc.), and increase the number of ‘exclusive’ upgrades to prevent upgrade stacking on single squads.

IS is a specific problem that unfortunately didn't get solved in the last patch, therefore practically impossible to address at this point.

I don't think you can just put every faction through the same filter when those factions don't have access to the same tools of similar strength or had them at all. Which is why you see these "uber" units having so much power budget.

Because it's more trolly that way.

I guess you guys know where to continue the discussion.

I suggest you also try posting it on the coh2 sub

I suggest at least Arranged teams 2v2 to be added.

Kudos looks great.

Might as well add arranged teams as well.
