These lineups are so bad.

The US’ only SPAA is 9.0, and only one of their jets gets CAS armament (and the one that is supersonic doesn’t get CAS armament).

The USSR gets the highest BR MBT lineup (with only 12.0/11.7 MBTs that actually deserve to be 12.0/11.7), is the only big three nation with light tanks, and is the only big three nation with both jets being supersonic and getting CAS armament.

Italy has to use an F-84F? Why not the F-104G?

China only gets a 8.3 and a 9.3 SPAA?

What incentive is there for a player to play the US? There is no viable SPAA, no light tank, no SEP, and the only jet with CAS armament is subsonic. The only upside I can think of is having (arguably) the best 11.3 MBT.

Good lord those are definitely some lineups offered for tournament players.

I wish there was a tournament at a lower battle rating it’d be much more interesting to watch people play ww2/early cold war vehicles compared to just modern stuff

times are 03:00 (3 am) for me - clearly not their target audience!

It’s overcompensating for the previous tournament ig, U.S was by far the most played nation with Israel second (bare in mind the 2A7/Strv122 weren’t available, in fact Germany and especially Swedens lineup sucked, there’s a breakdown here)

I wonder who the F is the one who decides to use these vehicles in the first place?
Why is all the E-sport about modern crap?
Why there is no low Rank/BR games?
Completely uninteresting for a lot of players…
What is the plans when you guys come up whit these ideas?

Honestly some people are overreacting a little bit regarding the US lineups, while yes I think they should allow the ADATS and swap the SEPv2 out for the better SEPv1, I don’t think it’s suddenly a horrible lineup.

However the absolutely imbalance between light tanks and planes is incredibly stupid imo.

90% if the people that commented in this thread are completely clueless on competitive play and have absolutely zero clue on how this stuff is balanced.
Interesting how every wrong of this game then gets blamed on the devs when they themselves have to deal with this trope of pepegas.

That’s not really an excuse since the past tournaments didn’t have anything newer than the M1A2 for the US

So finally the e-sports team decided to bring top tier ground in full strength to the competitive scene. The only mode remaining to be applied is the proper only ground tournament.

You can see how the ‘America gets played in tournaments, the abrams thing is a skill issue’ argument is vanishing, the german-swedish-russian spam in the tournament will be unbeareable.

Did they fix twitch drops?
