LOL ok rednova, you little forum troll, let me spell this out for you... aside from the majority of what you just said making very little sense and not being entirely consistent with your previous post, I want to focus on this golden nugget:
"But of course any argument that involves TEAMPLAY in a TEAM GAME as a basis for countering tactics should not be used. How inconsiderate I am. It's like saying buying teleport breakers to prevent exploders from wasting your team is a valid argument against a exploder, or actively protecting weaker members of your team is time well spent. (sarcasm off)"
You're argument is stupid because you're basically saying several things: (a.) well if you get outnumbered you still lose so it's not OP, (b.) 5v5 if there's only 1 or 2 sky fortresses, you CAN still lose so it's no OP.
(a.) any tank, not matter how op, is going to have a hard time severely outnumbered. but if you have a tank that's even 1.5x better than another tank and costs 25% less, that's already OP b/c it's not fair 1v1 and it's not fair if all your team members use it. There's not qualification for that tank like 'you have to be losing' or 'you have to have a bad K:D ratio'. Since anyone can get it, it's OP.
(b.) you're saying that SF isn't OP b/c it sucks when you only have 2 of them vs. 5 infernals (with 3 other tanks). That should not be the comparison point, the comparison point should be how do 5 SF stack up against 5 infs? Secondly, if you have 3 infs and 2 sf and went to fight, the SF would still kick ass b/c in addition to directly countering 2 infernal rains thereby effectively making it 3 infs vs. 3 infs when it comes to aoes, they disable 2 infs for 5.4 sec where they have ZERO firepower. It's fucking broken.
