A moment of silence for the Strela

Seems like you’re saying it’s OP to me…

Did you fail to read what I just said or are you just acting dumb?

You don’t even really need cover legit just move 90-95% of the time they miss. I know exactly the situation you’re describing I play a lot of SPAA too but the reality is that mavericks are easy to counter especially off the A10 platform. You could’ve argued about LGBs or AS30Ls but chose the maverick on the A10 for some reason…

Let me get this straight, you’re saying CAS is OP and SPAA is underpowered, but also that only 1 in 10,000 CAS pilots is actually any good/a real threat to you?

Seems odd to me.

Except they are, and that goes for all categories of vehicle. Especially tanks.

I mean, you guys are the ones insisting that 8km kills from A-10A is normal with no evidence whatsoever. But I’m the clown right.

This is a very childish way to argue your point.

No, I’m making fun of your stupid “skill issue” argument.

You don’t even really need cover legit just move 90-95% of the time they miss.

This only really works if you have a fast enough vehicle and it’s a dice roll at best. Also doesn’t change the fact that once a competent pilot is aware that you are actively trying to avoid their ATGMs they just switch to killing your team instead.

I’ve stopped reading anything from you given that you’ve still not redacted your lies.
Continue to pretend that the strela is OP because you aren’t smart enough to stay at range.
Wasted enough time on you as is.

I mean it is a skill issue, what else is it.
Nobody is forcing them to fly into range of the enemy SPAA when they can attack from outside it but themselves.
Who’s fault is it then?
Gaijin for not nerfing SPAA more so they can just fly over the battlefield unmolested?
So they can continue to act like an amoeba and be rewarded for it?
Yeah that must be it, let’s roll out another round of SPAA nerfs.

Why not just move the Pantsir and ADATS down to 10.0 too?

That’s the name of the game my guy, for every IR slinging SPAA in the game. Most of the time you don’t have the range to protect your whole team from stand off weapons especially if they’re pushed up. Like I said there are far worse offenders to this at 9.3-10.3 than the A10 with AGM65Bs

Funny you should mention ADATS considering it is woefully outclassed by the things it has to fight at 11.7, not even mentioning the constant uptiers to 12.7.
Another SPAA utterly gimped in its anti-air role and even has an inflated spawn cost on-top of it.
Not to mention the SAM changes that further reduced the responsiveness and control of the missile at long range.

Oh no I agree, the A-10 was just one example that sprung to mind because I’ve had experience fighting intelligent pilots in it which I remember because the majority of them are braindead.
And those times basically devolved into “I can’t touch him but he can’t touch me so I’ll just sit here and watch him keep killing my team.”.

I think someone just REALLY does not want CAS to have anything but the slightest chance of getting kills.

I’m not opposed to leaving the Strela where it is. I think it would destroy most CAS at that B.R. pretty easily, but that’s okay. The problem, again, as I’ve stated numerous times, is that it’s the only SPAA that can do it effectively at that B.R.

Oh my god, how horrible a scenario where someone in CAS has to play with any sense of sentience.
Truly a grim prospect, we should just remove all SPAA because getting shot down by them while afking from air spawn is unacceptable.

*A reality for literally every nation but Russia

Yes, yes we know that your dream is to try to make all SPAA equally as toothless instead of improving their capabilities across the board.
Truly peak gaming.
Anyway, tired of these circles. Done with this.

Nope, just want an even playing field. Gaijin isn’t going to spontaneously fix the SPAA for everyone else, so the temporary solution in the short term is to move the Strela up. When other nations have comparable capabilities then it can be moved back down.

So you have no response, and you’re left with just dismissing people for no reason more than disagreeing with them. Thanks for finally conceding.

10.0 is quite possibly the strongest lineup for Russia

Ok, You want a link to server replay or a video on Youtube is enough?

I have done multiple kills, but one is done from over 8 km ;). I will post the Youtube link as soon as it uploads, hope that You are not going to deny it. Took me some games to get used to the top tier which I haven’t touched for a while. Gonna go back to having fun on lower tiers ^^

The video is set on a moment when rocket was fired at the 8.3 km distance from the C point, target was a little further away.

Oh sorry, I have missed the 4:06 shoot made from 8.1 km away killing another target! Sadly don’t know the distance of 5:41 shoot, but probably was close to 8 km too :D

@ZE4L0T gonna @ You to see that too.

Hope that people who wanted that video will comment on it and not just go away from this topic trying to act like the discussion never existed.
