I’ve gotten to 74 USF in 1s by just blobbing 3 rifles, a ranger, a Cpt, a Rear Echelon and a Major, all with BARs, into the enemy cutoff/retreat path and deleting everything. The strat works perfectly, especially with cover to cover and M4 into CalliOP.
Nothing really unexpected here, there are like 10 extremely good players across all factions, 20 more good ones and then above average starts.
Top 100 in CoH isn't exactly same level as top 100 in starcraft or warcraft.
