How do you think we have to play against pe?
They have powerful infantry, they can immobilize tanks, they have a HT mortar against at guns, etc...
Just now, I managed to hold 40 minutes against Wolvak, but I lost the game with three times more losses than kills!

EDIT: the following replay is good to see how to fight against an excellent pe player with us, but still, LuckyStilet had a lot of difficulties and only 50 points remaining at the end... By the way, it was against Wolvak.

in US vs PE for US can be used insane amount of skill. And tbh in the end USA ahead. But it is way hardaer to play in the start on close to perfect level than as PE. Also I noticed few things:
1 now time more skilled USA players than PE so harder find good opponent for practice from that point
2 most of axis players play wm so even less chance meet good PE player
3 gameplay depands more from PE than from USA. I meanPE sets playstyle. And it is very many strategys, build orders, tactical moves, micro styles (some players almost no retreat and keep you cutted and hit you with AC, some early retreats to save MP).
4 also huge game process point - if you do early mistakes as USA - you throw so rapently and have almost 0 chance with good player, but if you do early mistakes as PE - you are behind but still if USA do even average mistakes- PE can come back and be in very strong posicion with very low chance for USA.
So that reasons in the end USA have to adapt to each style and each build order each doctrine, even to ketten or schwim play with way less practice than PE. Also you have very short time as USA to react. And PE can just follow his plan, with pretty good practice like 70% games vs USA and they all do about to same things. I think it depands more from that reasons than from balance in the end, which is in the end on US side imho

for example MaximusMiloserdny. Who use at least close style to his? no one I belive. How you can get skill against him? while USA most of players do the same. or t3 / or healing t3 / or healing t4. And he has good amount of practice against all of that. China player <HQ>DD use pg spam + HT, complexity fast AC with 2 ket TD. PE players almost always more skill than USA ! or you prepair in skirmishes vs good PE players or you have to have like x3 number of games to have close to same skill. but PE player play vs USA 1 by 1 in ladder, while USA play very rearly, so that reason PE grow up faster even if USA have same number of USA - PE games.

In 2.301, PE was even more OP against the US: I managed to win against ZeroCrack with some stupid inf spam, though he was the best us player...

In the same way, I think that the US is OP against Whermacht.

I very rarely have to use my brain playing against US.

Brits are much tougher.

Interesting. I think it comes down to playstyles like Stilet says, and maps. I've had a lot of hard PE games vs US and fewer vs Brits. I bet that's because I like Marders and avoid ATHTs. My US is comfortable vs PE and struggles against WMs who get an early Sniper.

Certainly US is very inflexible in this patch, there's not as many options as there are for PE and WM.

Yet, the US has many advantages against wehrmacht, as we can see in this kind of replay: Seb vs 12azor; 2.601
