Profile of TheSphinx

Bruh it's ok, you don't need to write a full essay in full defense mode here just because you got accused of being a biased axis main, it was not that serious. I'd suggest getting slightly thicker skin though. Btw "we" in that case would be people who have experience with axis mains. Almost every time profile pictures and/or names about german generals or soldiers, and always the same looking playercards



Good question, where is it? Nowhere to be found on the stats page I linked, and it tracks games from up to 10 years ago. And the numbers don't lie

And now I remember who you are, you're the guy who claimed sapper mega-blob into Churchill spam (and nothing else, just 2 different units) was a broken overpowered strat in CoH3, then ran away as soon as I respectfully asked you to demonstrate the OPness of the strat against me In fact I could swear you were whining about "allies OP" almost every week even when coh3stats showed axis have higher winrate in teamgames. And for some insane reason axis queue times were ~10 minutes and allies queue times were ~30 seconds

That's just more hints pointing to you being a biased axis main, I'm sorry

And now you're an axis main again in CoH3 . Why not just admit you're biased rather than writing an essay even when TWO playercards prove otherwise. It's not a crime or wrong to be an axis or allies main and being biased, I just don't get arguing about it after getting called out when even hardcore proof like playercards shows a different picture

Why did sappers got nerfed? ahh yes, because they really overperformed extremly and could easly wreck light vehicles without any at same as any other close combate units for 2x /3x of the costs.

A unit who is so cheap and effectiv that you swim in mp even if you just spam nonstop and automove them until you can spend all your fuel for a heavy without even teching, isnt overperforming? Feedback of nerfing them. ah ... so volks with gren-zombies into king tiger in coh1 was also not op before the nerf?? Or is it, because it matters a lot for you what banner a faction has?


Same goes for boysat rifles which allowed nearly anybody to win vs top10 player.

axis had higher winrate at that time? what stuff you smoke ... this whole time is the reason why most player had winstreaks of +90 with allies at this time or deinstalled the game. playing with mates and spamming pios and IS was a free win - tanks were not even needed at all.


"Good question, where is it? Nowhere to be found on the stats page I linked, and it tracks games from up to 10 years ago. And the numbers don't lie"

Your link does not even show a single "team" game, so where is it?
How it comes i played many teamgames but you cant even show me a single teamgame in your stat??
https://i.postimg.cc/SxrRZnYX/coh2teamstats.jpg
Than show me at least 1 teamstat in your link, where this matches show up? there should be at least 30 different groups of teams i played automatch with.
Where is it?

Again ... who is "we" and how it comes that this "we", see someone with 40 posts spams all day every day since years with that profile picture here. seems i registered in 2013


use your link > recent matches: allies - allies - allies - allies - allies - allies - axis - axis axis and again allies allies allies ... even 7 month ago - allies allies allies ... strange how my solomatches are with allies and majority of my axis games are based on the preference of what the group prefered.

Please don't pretend like you're playing allies. We all know you spam nothing but axis all day every day since years with this profile picture

some desert sand in your Vag**a??? I was rank 9 in 2on2 in coh1 with usf with esp- rank 23 with allies in coh2 2on2 teams

But hey, if you take that game so serious and still remember my account since coh1 with your 6000? ingame hours Than have fun. I played in every coh all factions but have fun in your salt mine.

Ohh i just see right now 2500 posts alone in this forum? Ah ... ok please get your online attention from someone else.

Bunker should cost popcap after picking the battlegroup. Not much but enough to punish a bunkerspam in lategame. The main problem for teamgames is, if you play in a random team and the enemy goes for bunkerspam - as soon as someone fails to pressure there and the enemy is able to build up his bunkerspam, this VP will be a huge problem to get back in lategame with all the atbunker/mg covering each other + additional units.

Than its basically gg no matter how hard or good you played in your area. You dont bring this bunkerline to fall which doesnt cost popcap, which are cheap as fuck in lategame and even if you dominated your part of the map and have a larger tankforce. You switch north and just face 2x p4 and 5x atbunker covered with mgbunker.

But this only exist if someone really just chills and let the WH player do what he wants and build his stuff.


my last 4on4 against someone with coastline BG and a serious elo was place 6 1800 elo in a 4on4 in the south of monte cavo.
And in this 1on1 situation right from the start, it is relative easy to destroy any "westwall" ambitions. Im something around 1400 elo with brits and only play randomteam. the enemy was a arranged team with viewers of helpinghans with him and the rank6 player in 4on4.

So i would say with rank6 and over 760 4on4 matches ( 600 of them won ) with WH against my "here and there" matches with brits if i want to play stress-free, it really isnt that hard to dominate against a coastline BG player.
Only exception is against a good team with teamspeak which doesnt allow this 1on1 situation ( which will be lost in most cases anyway because of the horrible matchmaking - whenever i see a real team and they are elo 1700 - 1800 and above, usually your teammates are 900 - 1000 - 1100) and if a teammate give up on one side of the map for a while to switch to mid, than in lategame you cant reach the VP anymore because the bunkerspam got crazy without any pressure.
But in both cases, this matches are lost anyway because of other reasons. In 80% of the matches, the huge elo difference between the teams is, what this game hurts the most.

A little popcap cost for the bunkerspam could not hurt, it should not be possible to have theoretical 20 - 30 bunkers which fully secure a VP and still a fulle force of inf and tanks to fight for other VPs. It is just the "possible" mass of bunkers without any damage in the popcap, which is crazy.
but overall allies have so much stuff to non-stop pressureing any attempt to build up a bunkerspam.
If the pressure isnt there, than it is the same with any other strategy.

Biggest problem with all nerfs or buffs for DAK is the big difference between USF and UKF

While a simple flameht can be strong against USF and force USF to build t2 for bazooka or spend the ressources for nadeupgrade as soon as possible ...

UKF just chill with tea because boysat rifles will always be ready at the same time where the pio gets his flameupgrade. DAK just wasted early in the game manpower for a unit, which he need to keep on distance at any time and if not - its gone in 2 shots. First shot on long range = 50% hp less and if he try to get close for flamer, he will lose the halftrack 100%.

The general problem for DAK - the design is about a early-mid game faction with support of many light vehicles.
Fighting with just inf will bleed the DAK players manpower balance and will hurt in multible aspects. All other faction have the option to get manpower reductions in one way or a other ( upgrades - battlegroup abilitys ) and have in general cheaper infantry.

A 100% static fight in cheat mod with UFK IS behind green cover on long range vs pzgren in green cover results in a devastating win for the UFK with keeping all 5 models and 60% hp. 300 mp pzgrens stand no chance against 260 mp IS on long range. Even if kar98 would suggest something else, it is better in close combat. So testing maybe pzgren vs 220 UFK pios?
Yep - same result. All 4 models still stand with nearly 50% hp while 300 mp pzgren had no chance in close combat behind green cover. It is just a static fight under perfect conditions. But in general, DAK just bleed manpower in general. You can go closer with pzgrens against IS but while getting close without cover you lose HP and there will be pios nearby or mg, which you need to avoid because you need to tech for nades and flameht vs mg doesnt work against brit because of the point above.
I made screenshots but dont see where to upload here.

So since release, DAK always tryed to reach fast as possible for a unit like flakht or 8rad to gaining the upper hand in the battle against infantry or keep up with it.

Only problem with that is, at this time in a 4on4, UKF will already have at least 3 boysat rifles.

To test it a bit more hardcore, i just made 2 boysat squads on autoattack move against a flakht on autoattack move. First shot on long range sets the flakht on 50% hp - they get pinned, still get the 2. shot out and the flakht is dead. ( both squads close together so they got suppressed both at the same time, which isnt realistically for a real match because a flakht can never suppress the squads fast enough if they are a bit split.
Staying on distance works fine vs bazookas but boysat rifles have a really got range. There is only a very close line between risking your flakht against boysat rifles or finally pinning enough to force a retreat.

If the flakht goes down, at this point you just chill and have basically won your part of the map - centaur call in will be ready soon and boysat deals with anything what a "light vehicle" faction can bring. And because your units do fine without costing that much - you can easly affort still more than the low effort buildorder of boysat + centaur.

To solve flakht - you need to solve the whole faction design.
flakht is without a doubt good and in good hands it can be a pain in the ass. But you walk all the time on a very thin beam if it is against UFK. Any mistake and your vehicle is gone. You can invest even more manpower into upgrades - smoke, more hp etc. and still ... 3 - 4 boysat squads at the wrong time and your vehicles are gone before you can even think about smoke.

But no matter how good or bad the game is in everybodys opinion .... i fear it will really be dead if nothing big comes from relic FAST. waiting 13 mins for a match with allies - got frustrated and tryed axis and just stopped after another 10 mins. ...
