Severely underrated unit combo (maybe)?

Not some great game, just an example of IFV+TB. i personally have never tried it, and never seen it, but it seemed very strong alongside tengus to kill the TD's.

ofc im sure this is quite specific to isla where ground play is most prevalent because of garage

Done it before, and it's decent. But I believe its better in 3v3 as you still have a teammate that can scout out for the allied player where their weakest target is smile.gif

Good job doh smile.gif

After looking at this video i also noticed that the TB is attacking 2x every shot inside the IFV, this is insane DPS. The gameplay was a bit nooby but it showed that even without the garage this was strong.

Accounting for the current meta of Isla's heavy ground play, i acctually could not think of a suitable counter to this from Dimon's and DarkNage's perspective in this replay. it just seems very very strong especially considering how fast it can be made and how fast they move. Maybe for A and E together this is new meta for isla?

I just watched the game on Dimon's channel and had the same thought. You can get that unit combination out pretty quickly, on T1 both Allies and Empire, you can fight vs infantry, tanks and air, you have very good mobility and there is not much choice for the other side. Even hammers get wrecked by those TB IFVs. The only non losing combination, which Dimon used was TD + MCV, but that is hard to pull off, because TDs also get sniped if not by the IFVs, then by Tengus.

It would seem they performed the a bug by accident making the tankbuster shoot. not just the iFV tankbuster.

As such the dps is higher
the actually way of it working and how it should work is less DPS, making it a bit more difficult to use.
