How about you guys adress grens shittiness against 2 out of 3 opposing factions?
Its addressed by HMG42 being in T0, sniper in T1 and reinforcement HT in T2.
If you want to play ost, like they were OKW, you'd have to actually switch to OKW, sorry.
Fast T2 and T1 skips, gave the illusion that ostheer is suddenly better then it really is.
This is why abilities like 5 men grens should have never existed. Faction is purly being competitive and better then OKW, simply due to cheese it can pull right now.
Take away cheese and they just as shitty as Soviets.
Except soviets aren't shitty, they have their strengths and weakness and are painfully predictable, but they aren't shitty.
And neither is ost without osttruppen or VSL, but it will seem like it is if you ignore that faction is balanced around combined arms instead of mashing your forehead on "build gren" hotkey.
At least once in a week we have a game, where one of the top players is using 251 in a way that makes it impossible to push grens of the field, people are pissing in awe during the stream, but afterwards Men in Black round them all up, do a flash and people proceed to REEE-ing about pure gren spam not being competitive answer to dual BAR rifles or 6 man dual bren tommies.....
