Coverage notes
Coverage from rule engine v1.2.0. Not LLM guesswork. Player comments often have the meta takes.
Strengths
- Solid ground core with some air defense or air support available
- Tight BR bracket: lineup stays competitive in its matchmaking band
Coverage gaps
- Backups sit far below your top BR: after the tip tank dies, spawns may be outclassed
- No long-range tank: limited ability to hold sightlines on open maps
- No clear flanker in the ground core
- No tank that can lead a push or hold a lane in the ground core
Weaknesses
- Three or more ground vehicles fill a very similar role
- Ground core leans on ambush TDs without a matching flanker
