It caught my attention that when comparing head to head as individual vs individual the apocalypse is noticeably better but when compared as group vs group the compariciment gab is much smaller if not tie or even it favor for prism so, i started to suspect that westwood balanced the unit of the game using a similar method like this one and didn't notice how grouping made prism an absolute death.
Fear the prism tank because not only range, splash damage and they work in groups, but also the enemy can teleport them literally anywhere they choose! Fear the Apocalypse not only for their firepower, anti air and that they work in groups, but also the enemy can make them literally indestructible for some time! Both are the harbingers of destruction :)
What do you mean the earlier-mentioned can teleport enemy targets anywhere? Both are Einstein's tech (Chrono and Prism) but entirely different. I don't believe Prism Tanks do that nor are equipped to do so
@@barrickfischer I mean, if you play allies, you can chronosphere the tanks and if soviet, you can make them immortal. Just adding to what a player can do to make them more lethal :)
Oh my God. Love your videos! Do you think you can somehow do a video with air craft carrier fight a boomer, an air craft carrier fight a dreadnought, a dreadnought fight a boomer, and see who will win? Thanks a lot please do such a video it will be awesome!
apocalypse can be use in all kind of enemy units even air units. and it does have heavy armor. if high rank apocalypse it can kill faster or even destroy any vehicle or building. you are noob if you choose prizm over apoc
@@vinf.9233 I've seen people take down apoc with rinos, you're a noob for just assuming the strongest unit is the best way to go. A prism in the right scenario will make more damage than an apoc. let's see how well apoc do in a yuri basie compared to a prism
The elite Prism narrowly lost the building race because even its elite version has a longer cooldown compared to the Apoc. They both deal largely the same amount of DPH, but the Apoc had a slightly higher DPS. Also, splash damage wasn't a factor in this test. PS. Looking at the stats, elite Prism should do 300 units of damage to structures (150 base damage x2 bonus for buildings) rather than the Apoc's 100 (100 base, full damage). But the cooldown for Prism is 100 as opposed to an Apoc's 80 (only hitting 4 shots for every 5 of it). And the Apoc can fire 4 shells per shot, so it makes 240 to 400 in terms of DPS, but then it should make the difference far more. If the shells are considered a single hit by the game, 240 to 100 should have made an even bigger one in the opposite direction. Either way, I'm missing something here. But the vehicle test was nothing surprising and not even close. Even elite Prism only does 75 to medium and heavy armor to Apocalypse's 100, and the cooldown makes it even worse (60 to 100).
@@mikuhatsune8121 ugh, just wanted this "elimination from the game" part to be added as a nice reference to the Squid Game. You know, just ride the hype train while it is on
This test is working against prism, as the targets are not crammed densely and also they (well, most of them) are friendly units, so not benefited from the splashing damage of the prism tank. To feel the real mighty power of prism tanks, you need to make them "angry" (genetic mutator on Yuri primes controlling them), as you always do.
@@Nod_Soldier That's not a good way of saying this. The full sentence should be: No, prisms are worse than apocalypses in terms of blah blah. And what we can fill here could be: anti air ability, anti vehicle damage, durability, self healing, 1 on 1 battle etc. And vice versa is also true: Prisms are better than apocalypses in terms of shooting range, anti infantry/buildings, splashing damage (esp elite promoted). And because of this, prism is better for wipe out the entire base quickly with minimal lost, as long as the opponent did not counter properly.
@@Nod_Soldier 1 v 1 yes. Prism is worse. Even 1 v 1 with rhino, prism will have hard time to win. But prism work best in many v many. The splash dmg work best even againts apoc in numbers. Apoc dont have splash dmg until max vet. Even then the splash didnt do much unless its againts infantry. So yea, 1v1 bad. But many v many OP.
I think the key argument here is that the Apocalypse tank is 45% more expensive than a Prism tank (and in this case the Soviet Industrial Plant and the Allied Ore Purifier cancel out). For a fairer test, you would need two (or four) Apocalypse tanks, three (or six) Prism tanks, and multiple targets clustered together. Say, five of each. That should give you a better idea of their relative powers. The Apocs would probably still inch ahead, particularly when elite, but it would be a much closer race.
im not sure apocs still be ahead, mobility is a big factor in numbers, apocs are very clunky, having 3 times more dps means nothing if you are not shooting. i would love to see a test with more units of each and cost balanced.
Yeah the apoc is a bit faster at veteran status and against vehicals (espically MCV damn...) but thwo things to remember. That splash damage is DEVASTATING agaisnt far more grouped up units (as is the normal encounters in game) AND range is pretty much the most power thing you can have. It's insane at the veteran level. Have some mirage to back up against heavy tank responce. The only real huge downside to the prisim, is it's weakness agaisnt air units, espically with the low armor. Even with a full stack of IFVs you could get prisim wiped by some rockeeterrs. At least the apoc has the armor and the misses to fend them off. Plus, flak is so much better agaisnt allied air units. It's a good thing when you VS soviet forces you only really have to worry about choppers and kirovs.
In the grand scheme, isn't the Prism tank, in spite of the name, more of an artillery unit? Granted, the Allies don't really have a "heavy tank" until the Battle Fortress.
@@Cloud_Seeker Makes sense to me. The Apocalypse has to actually get shot at to get a shot in, while the Prism can stand out of range of most base defenses.
Thing I never understood is why does my Prism Tank have such range but my stationary Prism Tower doesn't? Stationary weapons always are better because they don't need to be mobile and have a steady supply of energy.
Balancing. lol legit the only reason. I always like the idea that defensive buildings should have the ability to be promoted. It would bring them back into the pvp meta if they got unreal range and damage for sacrificing mobility and would help punish failed assaults. But it would change the dynamic too much, and most strats would be out the window so I get why even modded it never would make it in the current small pvp scene.
The best combo is battle fortress with gurdian inside accompanied by few prism tank. And put some navy infantry or tanya in that battle fortress tank too for infantry enemy units..
Apocalypse is bad against unit...I prefer prism because of unit production...I just make one sniper inside ifv...10 racketeeri all fv and 3 mirage,20 prism...with support with paratroopers and Eagles or planes.
I think this test is flawed. In a RTS numbers, cost and production speed needs to be factored in. Often construction cost and build speed is a part of the design and tactic itself. Cheep units are fast to produce because they use numbers over quality. An Apocalypse tank cost 1750 and takes 1:10 build time. A Prism Tank cost 1200 and takes 0:48 build time. This means that it takes 3500 credits and 140 seconds to build 2 Apocalypse tanks. It also means it takes 3600 credits and 144 seconds to build 3 Prism tanks. If we are going to compare the different tanks based on things like cost efficiency and build time. We should compare 2 Apocalypse tanks with 3 Prism Tanks since a single Prism Tank isn't supposed to win against a Apocalypse tank just because of the value difference.
