  • This is the first guide in the off meta build order series, and we're starting with covering the raid sections build I came up with in an attempt to reach rank 1 UKF. This analysis is focused on 1v1, and is for me to practice making guides before the CoH3 launch in november.
    If you plan to preorder CoH3, please use link link.xsolla.co...
    and use code ELPERN on checkout.
    This supports me directly by giving a cut of the purchase to me. Thank you.

    When you do these build guides it would be nice to see 2 different games and showing how you play/adapt to different strats or faction from your opponent, like if he goes Ostheer snipe. Light commentary going over decision making at key parts of the game.
    Loving your content as I’m getting back into coh after playing the original so long ago. Looking forward to your guides and knowledge when coh 3 hits.

      Might be a good idea for a different series altogether, I want to keep these build order guides more focused on the general build and strategy, to keep them relatively short and easy to digest!

    Raid sections are absolutely baller.
    I don't know if the Centaur is really better than the Cromwell. Weirdly enough, I tested each of the vehicle vs volksgrenadier (Comet and Churchill) and surprisingly they each killed the squad at around the same time. Maybe Centaur has more consistent AOE ?

    • @thundergod6115
      @thundergod6115 Год назад +4

      I tested this too and came to a similar conclusion. I think the Centaur is more reliable when it comes to firing on the move, which makes it better for circle strafing an AT gun. It also provides AA and its Vet 1 ability absolutely shreds.

    Mostly found you via SkippyFX.
    Would be fun to see you and skip cook up an interesting/wonky 4v4 strat and try to execute it, before CoH3 hits. He's been using your raid section build to great success, for 1v1 !
    Great channel and great commentaries, your presentation of build orders is great, love the visual format. I was wondering - perhaps 1 full game where you executed the strat to a certain perfection (as an example, at the end of the video), would be fun, with your commentary. Really enjoy that type of stuff. Just some feedback.
    P.S.: I gather you either don't have time or there's not much revenue in youtube, but your vids are great, wanted to say - upload moar, brotha !

    very very strong build.. at a certain point there are simply too much units to counter (as axis.. only 1 time i ve played against this strat, luckyly 😅, and he beat my ass very badly 🤣) and they have complete map control... i ve tested it as english and is veeery strong.. i ve struggled a little vs axis assault squad.. but centaur vet1 ability is a carnage 🤣 too powerful.. i m going to use this strat every game now hehehe, thank you for the explanation ✌️
    p.s. one strange thing with raid section is the cost of lmg upgrade.. 120 muni for an lmg that is, also, bad 🤔
    Sorry for my bad english

    I was hoping you'd talk about the raid section matchups more, as in which scenarios they are good or bad in, any enemy strats to look out for and adapt to. Just saying they are an aggresive unit isn't thorough enough for a video where they are in the title. Everything else you talked about was pretty thorough which i find ironic

    • @elpern
      @elpern  Год назад +2

      Good points, I kind of take it for granted that you already know that raid sections = riflemen, and thus medium range is optimal engagement distance. Other than that, the raid sections in this build is used mostly as a buffer to hit the centaur, as they allow ukf to have a strong opening without spending fuel on sidetechs.

    • @Prokingdude

      Because centaur is a shit-tier vehicle. It has the same dps against infantry as Cromwell with commander upgrade. The only reason to use it is AA and command vehicle for teamgames.

      @outofconnection7726 Год назад

      The Vickers in general seems to have this bug, it is also important to mention that the Vickers performs only a little better compared to the bren on long range.
      So I would recommend you to just give your sections double bren, however if you have the extra munitions in team games or you simply already have the weapon half-track on the field then why not, sure go for the vickers. But be reminded it only performs a little better compared to the bren and on the fire it has terrible accuracy.

      Against OKW instead is super effective almost everytime

  • @DustyPazner
    @DustyPazner Год назад +2

    At the moment I would say UKF is the most dysfunctional faction in the game and not fun to play. If they literally have to give you an essentially completely different infantry unit just so you can stand a chance in the early game something is wrong. Tldr UKF is literally unrecognizable from what it used to be like and they should really reconsider all this crap that they added as essentially a cope for the Tommies nerf from that one patch that they turned UKF into USF.

    • @elpern
      @elpern  Год назад

      This is not the case; this is a very specific offmeta build that focuses on early pressure. Other factions has these too. I do agree though that ukf is the odd one out of the 5 factions

    • @DustyPazner
      @DustyPazner Год назад

      @@elpern you misunderstood me. UKF is not the odd one out UKF and to a degree OST and SOV have lost many doctrine mechanics and unit abilities that made them unique. UKF has lost the most which is why I call it dysfunctional. I am also referring to a specific patch (winter 2019 I think) that lowered infantry sections base accuracy and on the move acc massively, since then the balance team has been coping (lower MP cost from 270 and other small buffs). And after a year of UKF being objectively the worst 1v1 faction in the game they added raid sections and ass sections which you call off meta but an ass/raid sec in a UVC early game has no counter. The reason I was moaning about the game is that these doctrines don't fix the factions core issues but simply make UKF into USF raid=riflemen ass=assault engineers.
