PUMP THE BREAKS! Patreon Coaching in Steel Division 2

[@DrWacher]

Great video, appreciate your feedback! I was tilted forward so hard early its tricky to step back and think out a defense.

[@malteschaper3782]

Thanks for giving us this interesting game to look at and enjoy ATKPWRs ramblings.

[@atkpwrgaming]

Thanks for the game, I’m glad it was helpful!

[@huubstevens1821]

This was the most fun I've ever had playing balanced. Gg @DrWacher and thanks attakpower for analyzing the game! Dream come true hahah

[@huubstevens1821]

A note too, this game was capped at 50mins in a tournament and lasted 49:30. Otherwise it wouldve been a draw

[@DrWacher]

Good game, thanks for a great match!

[@atkpwrgaming]

Great match very exciting!

[@malteschaper3782]

29:25 Quality coaching right there. :D I love this new series. I'm learning more than with the other vids.

[@atkpwrgaming]

Thrilled to hear it that’s the intention!

New title suggestion: Crouching Tiger Unscouted Elefant.

[@atkpwrgaming]

Hahaha love this

[@ev4_gaming]

Not a bad game

[@atkpwrgaming]

I thought it was actually quite exciting!

really if there is a unit I consider crucial to any soviet division it is definitely Razvedka, having those bazooka available along with solid recon it is just a great unit. if I were to pick the highest value soviet units in each tab it would probably be. Razvedka Tankodesant Tie between T-34/85 or the 76mm version Tie between the OB-25 and the SU-152 (SU-122 honorable mention) Zis-2 (honestly not that great in the grand scheme of things but its capable) Soviet AA is meh across the board but the Zis-12 (double 25mm) is at least decent 152mm for howitzer and SU-76M for self propelled guns. not sure what air I would pick but the IL-2-37 is really good.

[@DrWacher]

I always struggle to have the razvedkas where i need them I feel like with limited avail in A i am reluctant to use them early and lose them in the inf brawls. I didnt trade very well with them this match but i feel like the 34/85s can punch up well. The 76s at 55 points I feel can be tricky to position for trades with so much at inf in the axis decks. I wind up using them as screens for the bigger tanks in an open push but im not sure thats a good use of points either

[@dominuslogik484]

@@DrWacher Razvedka can definitely be tricky to use but the biggest thing is to avoid getting them into fights with enemy troops as much as possible, keep them on return fire and keep them behind your troops if you plan to kill a tank with them. like have a unit or two of Tankos or Avtos in front of them whenever they are in the woods and if you know a tank is near the woods use that 250 meter range to reach out from the treeline and snipe a tank before falling back. also a little bit heavier usage of artillery could help out your playstyle, don't go overboard but especially with cheap artillery like the 76mm use some radio scouts and at least a pair of 76mm to drop shells on problem targets you see, its a great way to bleed AT guns and machineguns from an opponent which are crucial tools for axis to be able to counter the large quantity of soviet armor. definitely a key takeaway from AtkPwr's commentary would be knowing where each infantry unit will be best suited. Gvardia should almost never go into a forest unless you know the forest has no enemy troops in it and that you can set them up to guard the treeline, Saperi are basically Gvardia with a grenade and they are best used to hold towns and can support Avto in the forest in a pinch to provide a grenade in a tough fight.

[@atkpwrgaming]

Nice list!

[@shayanhosseini8429]

hes LUCKY LUCKY

[@atkpwrgaming]

He did get very lucky haha

[@DrWacher]

😬 still learning to be more careful with opening deployments!

[@kirotheavenger60]

Hard to watch, that really was snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. Maverick is all about the Bite & Hold tactics. Grab the flags you need and dig in tight as a tick.

[@DrWacher]

Atkpower audibly cringing is going to play in my head anytime i play maverick from now on. 😂

[@atkpwrgaming]

Yeah you have to get dug in after B and play defense at that point

[@BeatRoot14]

10th seems like a decent division especially for armoured soviet division.

[@atkpwrgaming]

I really like that division truthfully, one of my favorite Soviet divs

[@solaufein1374]

Oh man, i would be pissed off

[@atkpwrgaming]

Yeah that’s a bummer I’d be ticked off

[@DrWacher]

@@atkpwrgaminghard to be ticked off throwing away armor against elefant and over expending like that! 😢. First tournament match and I get pro feedback!

[@HoboTango]

Wow that thumbnail. Actually look like a SD2 map. Goddamn you’re good !

[@atkpwrgaming]

Thanks!
