Unit statistics
I was curious today while playing this game in Firestorm 16. I wanted to compare GDI and Nod stat wise and see who's better... I got the idea after looking at the top alliances and was shocked at the ...

Regardless on anyone being interested, here's the 2nd part:
When I compare units I take all 4 stats (but not their range) into account and decide on who wins by being bulkier and stronger. Units that have different AP's are given a modifier of 1.5 or 2 to the weaker one. I then give a point or two to the winner, the extra one is if the winner is cheaper to train.
Attack Bikes and Avatars win by a landslide against their GDI counterparts. Specters win against Juggernauts by the same rule. Cobras are way better than Paladins, especially with the upgrades. Orcas also win by the same reason as Cobras did, though its upgrade might be more or less useless.
The last 2 are Vertigo and Salamander. Salamander is stronger than Kodiak but is slightly more expensive. Vertigoes and Firehawks can only compete by their damage to structures... Vertigoes do a lot of damage (reason why they won) but it attacks the structure underneath it...
GDI won 7 times and so did Nod. When it comes to double wins, GDI overtakes Nod by 2 points compared to Nod's 10 points. They say Nod is stronger, but I see a paradox: on Firestorm 16 There are more GDI alliances than Nod Alliances on the top 10 category. The ratio skewers as you increase the sample size of top category.
I think it might have to do on the upgrades and that GDI has some worse upgrades compared to Nod. Maybe Nod relies on GDI a lot to be successful. Speaking of upgrades, I want your opinions on the top 5 most useless upgrades for both GDI and Nod. Can anyone voice their opinions?
