Looking at the overall factions and comparing prices I feel that Scrin is a currently balanced side along side of GDI where this is nothing that is too cheap, too expensive, too weak or too strong that makes that side unplayable or noticeable wrong in terms of balance. Both factions even play out as they were intended to do in design, one powerhouse faction (GDI) and one turtle faction (Scrin).

On the other hand, looking at Nod I feel that there are flaws towards their late game and if they were cured the game would be on good balance levels without anything major which effects gameplay.

Starting this Saturday at 10AM Pacific Standard Time, Round 1 of the C&C 3 Grand Championship Ladder tournament will begin. The top 32 competitors from the regular 3 month season have been ranked and put in to 4 group brackets. All matchups are a "Best of 3" and single elimination.
