I watched replay.
Finland AB
Your team had the basic competence of fanning out to cover more angles. I feel like that should be floor of basic competence. a natural expectation or something.
The other side. Clustered. :-
A great example for what happens when a team clusters and a piss poor match to use for teamwork.
They have no vision. They cant even shoot at position as a team because thier someone else in the way. Whoever was at the front stops near cover thereby= stoping the group…) Using number corretly is bearing more barrels at the otherside than they can return; The person at the front SHOULD push past cover to take a foward position and aggro fire. hopefully the people behind follow suit and dont post at initial cover slowing down the people in the rear. leaving the guy at the front exposed and essentially alone. the team needs to move past the intial cover minus the last guy. Last tank or an open top td-slow turret or no turret can post at intial cover. this is the lowest value position when the team is pushed out. its a very passive position.
They had, what 8 tanks? in one small area. all they had to do was step up past cover, take a hit and have the rest follow. kill whats infront which was mearger, and cleanup the eye which had 3 people posted all in the same area wall hugging. which makes them even easier to push once support from spawn side or cap side is destroyed… :- thats it. they would have the cap and equalize on the attrition of tanks lost. and top of being in a better position controlling the eye and the cap.
But Cluserting is the mob behavior of self preservation with safety in numbers.Taking ground and pushing not typical behavior of a cluster. They hunker down the first sight of a threat.
Which your own team did as well when they couldve just steped on the gas and pushed spawn. During your escapade with the puddle while trying to dunk a m36 with ap round. … bring some HE. a small love tap on any part, including the machine gun, you’ll get fireworks.
You got 2 intelligence early into match =2 air points
Paired with a kill on the m18 shortly after. =1 air point
Why didnt you spawn a bomber?
you had multiple opportunities with decent targets to hit. It would trivializedthe period when you were swiming or the cluster pushing the Eye bravo side. Im just going to assume you like your tank time.
Not that it matters, they were pretty brain dead ignoring the Eye on their first wave {eye - inbetween A/B) when pushing initialy. and even the ones that knew something was there, Didint adjust their postion to reflect that threat. :- leaving their sides exposed.
pretty brain dead. The ones died from there cameback to address that issue.
Every “Push” red did. Was in a cluster or a column format. Stepping on toes, contributing little to nothing, going one at a time back to spawn or hanger.
Not a good match to exemplefy teamwork. its like watching soccer, but you have red as 5years olds. and blue team as 10y olds? not exastly teamwork because thier most likely still mentaly of me me me.
Fanning out is basic competence. it really should be an expectation.
I dont actually see random players working together intentionally. in that sense, the clustered team had more intentional teamwork going on… moving together, covering eachother… the issue thier not activly using that to accmplish anything.
Smoke shot at entry of the eye. would allow safe space to push the Cap. Get better angles to fire at the eye without being shot from the spawn road.
If you have the cluster on your team. If you have smoke shells. if your cluster cant see a threat they will continue moving. its rare if the entire cluster remains still for the duration of the smoke. Smoke your team or theirs. it has similar effects as long the player feels safe enough to move up. just ahh,
for this match, for red team, if the intial rock were smoked early. its highly likely that they wouldve moved past itand engaed in open ground using thier numbers. Trivilizing that entire fight. thier are foward cover positions so even if thier outnumbed, they still have a preservation panic area to move into.
Thier was a lone T34-85 at the eye who couldve used help against 4? tanks, he got help very late. Which help was Jimbo here. The only reason the T34 lived is because the entrance was roadblocked by dead tanks. followed a blueberry firing at thier rear.
this is not teamwork. this is a basic result of fanning out, into a team that doesnt.
