Obers are a moot point and now they are fairly easy to kill after 2 x armour nerfs.
Since Maxims give such an early advantage its already GG by the time Maxims have full map control. Vonivan I would have thought you would attest to this??
I have seen some of your games from a week ago. You basically push OKW all the way back to spawn and the opponent has little or no chance to do anything as he is fuel starved and by that time KV8 or IS2 is out.
LEIG is basically hopeless atm. its not evne worth half its price. In fact its not worth getting at all since it puts you at a disadvantage. OKW HT needs it set up time removed and it also needs to stop hitting the ground otherwise its basically useless getting this thing
It depends on the map Warthrone, maps like crossing, ferma winter, and La Gleize are excellent for maxims, while others such as summer ferma, farmlands, semois summer are not maxim-ideal maps. It also depends on the opponent and how he operates, while maxims are effective against OKW they are actually much easier to deal with as Ostheer(on balanced maps). Reason I'm saying maxims aren't invincible anti-okw killing machines is because they can be countered and dealt with. I have played every opponent you can think of that uses maxim spam, and so has the best OKW player atm, Vindicare. It's not that hard to deal with when you think T2 and position certain units well while defending a certain portion of the map. I even used my own maxim spam strat against him and he knows how to counter it well unfortunately. Everyone else I've played though has a rough time with it. I myself know the weaknesses to it but do not wish to list them as it would make my strat less(effective) in automatch. But I can give hints, such as good play with an early flak hf.(You'd be surprised at how effective it is when you use it defensively against an aggressive Soviet player)(There is an even better way but I ain't listin' that). That ofc isn't enough to fully counter it but it's part of a strategy you can use. Vindicare has his own special way of dealing with it too, which if you want to know what it is, ask him for it. So, Obers can effectively deal with maxims(late game only obviously), early game you need to adapt to deal with early maxim spam.(It's not as hard as some people point it out to be). While I agree the maxim is a powerful suppression unit, it isn't an OP one. If I were to say the Maxim is OP, I would also have to save the MG34 as being OP.
