Sonja has a really cool contrast to her father thats not just Brain vs Brawn, its also Samurai vs Ninja. Kanbei fights fair and square and relies on his superior skills to win the day. Sonja relies on deception(? HP), ambushes (her SCOP on AW2 gives all her units FE vantage for 1 turn) hiding in the darkness (FoW) and she even gets to debuff your defenses on AWDS(Sabotage)her day2day negates 1 defense star and her powers increase that.

You called me out, Mangs. My favorite win in Duel Strike was a match where I was getting stomped, but I had a air transport with an infantry on it squirreled away. I spammed as many tanks and anti air as possible as a distraction while I snuck that transport around. I thoroughly enjoyed the look on my face when he began his last turn and I told him I had won. It took him a second but he noticed I had an Eagle/Sami DS coming up and saw my transport. Dude did everything he could to get in my way, but I had spaced him out perfectly. My turn came and I flew my boy right over to the enemy HQ and captured it. That memory is never leaving me.

So far, from what I have seen, it looks like the Advance Wars remake is going to be a very faithful port. If this changed in any way, I will make a new video with the adjusted CO's, but judging by the footage we have seen so far, there hasn't been a single visible balance change to any of the Aw1 CO's. This means that these rankings should be pretty relevant once the game launches. I pray they have the sense to balance the game a little, as the multiplayer scene will be an absolute mess, but seeing as they are calling it a "port" it looks to be a 100% faithful rendition. Can’t wait for Max to break the multiplayer competitive scene!

I have a feeling they might tweak the games into a uniform standard between 1 and 2 where they rebalance the best and worst aspects of both. For example, making it so Max has his Black Hole Rising stats from the getgo, which would still leave him in as a very reliable pick without making him ridiculously overpowered, and give Sonja her counter bonuses. I just hope they make the Luck effects less of a penalty for those that by all means should be dealing reliable damage as seen on screen more often than not instead of less unless their name is Flak.

Eagle meanwhile got strong enough air units to oneshot more things, making pushing through lines much easier, and his lighting strike was game ending even if it cost a bit more. Never managed to unlock Nell or Sturm sadly, so never got to experience them.

And Nell is difficult to unlock; if you didn't bother to try 100%'ing the game and/or scrub the internet for guides you might not even know she's unlockable, in addition her luck doesn't activate during Field Training when you initially DO use her, she's just an Andy-level CO with no Power at that point.

Banning mech spam, to be frank, seems both unfeasible and, more importantly, unnecessary if you ask me. What qualifies as mech spam? 4 mechs? 6 mechs? 10? You're essentially picking a number at random. Regardless, while mechs are cost effective if they strike first, their slow movement makes them a joke against artillery with an infantry frontline. The mechs can't move in without getting slaughtered, and the infantry can casually engage the mechs themselves as they're supported by artillery. Furthermore, an army consisting of mostly mechs isn't going anywhere fast, so even when a defender isn't quite prepared yet, they can just ignore the mech flood until they are and effortlessly take control of the rest of the map. Spamming mechs, simply put, is generally a sign that someone's a beginner at competitive advance wars. I imagine people will learn to counter it fairly quickly. Once people get a bit of multiplayer experience, you're unlikely to see much mech spamming in the first place, so banning the practice will ironically only serve to prevent people from learning to stop doing it.

Yeah i agree, banning mech spam is just... pointless. Its very boring tactic and often reliable (especially on small maps), but its not OP in the slightest and has counters, such as flying units (even battle copters), medium tanks (if you have money to spare), indirects (i mean artillery is cheap, while rockets are near untouchable) and well... infantry (its weaker than mechs, but its three times cheaper and almost always faster). The most not-obvious-yet-fun-to-use counter is anti-air, as it can 1-shot infantry (usually very hard to do, actually), thus making holes in enemy defences. And no, Samis infantry doesnt get defense boost so she cant defend against it (Kanbei and Sturm can... but they are on way other league than others).

Max was my guy for a while, but over time I just got annoyed with not being able to use long-range units well. His artillery are almost useless they have so little range. Sami became my girl because I found her early game to be awesome. Her infantry ability to capture more than their power is incredible. Only units that can capture in two days even under fire. Hence I like to spread out and starve my enemy for resources. Olaf I could never get into because he can get disadvantages so much more than advantages. I pick Olaf for an enemy when I feel like destroying someone. Kanbei is a f***ing terror if he gets going. Starve him, swarm him, force him to deplete his funds on repairs. Killing him is hard.
@isenokami7810

Only just started playing AW1 myself, but I already have similar opinions on…most of them. Max is still incredibly useful, but yeah, artillery being worthless hurts. He’s still kinda able to use rockets and battleships (so long as he’s not trying to use them on other indirects), but those are much more expensive. He’s still insanely powerful, but Mangs might have exaggerated a bit giving him that S rank, when he really needs to get good income flowing in before he can back his tanks up with indirects he can use. Sami is just really fun to play, and oddly one of the few times the game being vague about actual strengths and weaknesses is a positive. I do hate that the game’s CO descriptions just say “X is strong, Y is weak”, without even a hint of hard numbers. With Sami, though, with the game just telling me her ground vehicles are weaker…haven’t really felt that. I kinda play her like Andy, only with better infantry instead of Hyper Repair. And that better infantry is huge: given how things pan out, her increased capture rate is less “capture things faster” and more “tough to interrupt her”, but that’s exactly why it’s so good. Olaf…I only tried him out in my second campaign run, where I got him for the blue army. Ever find it odd that the AW1 campaign makes you work for the worst options? You have Sonja, potentially the weakest CO in the game, who you can only unlock or even fight by taking her dad down as fast as possible three missions in a row. And then you have a secret mission during the Blue Moon chapter, requiring you to kill everything on the previous mission (hard when he can easily take out all means of touching his ships), and your reward is getting to use him in the final battle. Easily the worst CO to get for either the blue or green troops, because his Blizzard honestly only helps him and nobody else. Popping it will slow down Sturm, sure…but it will also screw over Andy and whoever’s running the green team. In 1v1’s, I can see how it would help if you used it at just the right time; definitely a power you want to save for the right moment, unlike everyone else’s that you’ll probably pop immediately. In a team match with another friendly army on the field, though, don’t you dare pop it unless you want to lose your friend. And Olaf really brings nothing else to the table, so…yeah. I know from the later tier lists that he gets somewhat better, but AW1 Olaf kinda sucks. As for Kanbei…haven’t really tried him out myself. On paper, though…well, he didn’t get broken yet (giving him Samurai Spirit in AW2 was basically basically meant Max just passed the OP torch onto him instead of tossing it entirely; haven’t gotten to that yet to test it though), but he’s still pretty strong. Even if his AW1 design looks like Japan-based Nintendo and Intelligent Systems went all in on offensive Japanese stereotypes.

OLYMPICS: Advance Wars - FASTEST Player To Beat The Maps Wins GOLD! (Gold/Silver/Bronze) (Part 1/3) Details: 4 players race against each other in custom maps to see which one amongst them is able to finish the map and beat the AI the fastest. It is split into 3 separate videos. First video has 4 competitors, slowest player to beat the map is out. Second video has 3 competitors, the slowest player is out and wins bronze. Last man standing wins GOLD You can do this with yourself, Panz, and others you know. Or 4 subscribers or random AW players. There could be live commentary and the content can even be live streamed. This is just my idea for a competitive KZitem AW series. Feel free to do it if you want Mangs. I’m gonna post it on the subreddit as well.

I always liked Grit. I almost never lost against the computer when I went with him and I used to think he was overpowered. But I didn't know he had a penalty on direct units and capture rate, so he seems pretty fair after all. My answer would be to just have artillery escorts with your tanks and infantry to ensure successes; compensate for the weakness by simply complimenting it with your strength. Having gotten older though, I've come to appreciate Olaf's playstyle as well. I like weather-based mechanics in strategy games---especially inclement weather. I recently began playing Company of Heroes 2 and that game has snow mechanics as well. I find myself drawn to the levels that have them, despite the fact apparently no one plays on them competitively. I guess I just like the challenge and the aesthetic of needing to get your troops into buildings, building bonfires or heading back to your base to wait out the heavy blizzards. So in Advance Wars, the idea that Olaf _thrives_ in snow is really cool. I'd probably give him a try if I played the games again.

Although the port does seem super faithful, we've only seen clips from the campaign, I can just hope that multiplayer or at least online will be balanced differently, yet they'll keep the campaign the same so they don't have to change where units are and stuff like that. After all if they see that Sturm was balanced differently even back then I hope it gives them the idea to balance online differently from the base game. Then we wouldn't have to ban anything from tournament play and it really can be about just what style of play you like.

Most of these things can be fixed. Mech spamming can be prevented by having well balanced maps. First turn advantage can be fixed by giving player 2 one extra infantry unit (Wargroove did this on most maps). Overpowered CO's can be branched into tiers like I have done, and you can simply say that you can only play up or down one tier. Pokemon does something similar for their competitive tournaments. There are ways to ensure a fair and balanced game of Advance Wars.

For example, you don;t need to ban COs in DS if you use the Skills system to balance it out. Say you have a power tier list and any CO under that first tier can pick out a skill to use, two tiers down can pick two, etc. Added systems can be used to keep other unbalanced systems in check.

The Treehouse Event already pretty much confirms that the player insert is gone. During one of the tutorial missions they showed Nell was now addressing Andy, who in the original wasn't introduced until you finished the fog of war tutorial and there was no mention of the advisor character. They also made some small changes from what I caught like already letting you use CO powers during those tutorial missions. They also called the mission AirAce! Mission 6, while it was originally Mission 3, meaning it is likely that instead of the original in-depth Tutorial Mode they'll simply move certain tutorial missions to the beginning of the campaign like they did in later games.

Agree. +50% is no joke. Sturm's defense boost is nullified, and he's effectively giving Max a defensive buff in exchange; Max having +30% attack and +20% Defense (Sturm' +/-20%, right?) is arguably better than the flat 50% Max defaults to. Sturm's super is great, yes, but Max not relying on indirect fire makes Max' field composition less bundled anyways, and even a Max unit with a bite out of it is still probably trading favorably with a full health Sturm unit. Sturm's only recourse are maps where he can abuse mobility, and take advantage of Max' own units being slowed by that same terrain, and are more vulnerable to indirect fire. This isn't really a Max v Sturm specific matchup either, Max generally dislikes congested movement, Sturm loves it.

@@hi-i-am-atan Luck does ignore those, that much I know. Luck just flat adds (or subtracts) from the damage dealt, such that Jugger's infantry in Dual Strike can just walk up and deal 0/1+20% to a Megatank on a good roll. Doesn't matter if it's Colin's tank hitting something for 5, or Max' tank hitting something for 8, a luck roll of 5 will always add 5 points of damage. The only damage modifiers luck cares about are things that will bottom out a negative luck modifier at 0/1 damage. I don't actually know if the game lets you deal 0 damage. And cool to know! That does make things trickier, I guess. I think the trade of 10% attack for 5% defence under that math is still pretty good, though.

Just recently got into the Advance Wars gba last 2021, and I definitely agree with these! When I first played the game and had yet to understand certain strategies to it, I always used Andy because of the 2 HP heal, and he had fairly okay units. I hadn't quite gotten used to playing Max or Sami yet at that time and didn't understand yet what they're capable of. Max, in particular, I thought he was so overpowered that it was kind of... a waste (?) to use 147% of my firepower towards a unit that had like 3 HP left and I didn't have any other units nearby/available to bring it down (like I said, didn't understand strategy yet at that time) and then when the enemy strikes back, I'm left with few units to take them out (Grit, lol). While with Sami, I didn't like how her units were slightly weaker than the enemy. But after 2 years of playing, I barely use Andy now LOL. I still love him, but I mostly use Max now and depending on the map Sami is my go-to CO. I love them all, but yeah, there's no contest with Max, he's just so broken I use him all the time now.
