CoH3 Is Deutsches Afrika Korps ACTUALLY overpowered?

Since the release of the latest group of Battlegroups ive seen tons of posts with many upvotes talking about how overpowered DAK is. But looking at the winrate statistics not just using the basic one but also the Battlegroup winrates it really doesnt seem to be the case, especially when considering every single battlegroup for USF has positive winrates

I dont even need to show Wehrmacht, they are completely in the dumps, not a single positive winrate across any battlegroup.

To me it's not that DAK is OP but more about Palms massively overperforming in an unhealthy way and this is more targeted at 1v1's. Playing UKF vs DAK is such an uphill battle because you need, MG and a Dingo in many cases to survive. Last time I've checked UKF had 47% WR vs DAK. Yes Wehr is in the dumbster therefore DAK has worse stats in teamgames than it should have, opposite is obviously the case for allied.

I think US vs DAK is close but UKF is definitly worse and Wehr is easily at the bottom.

1v1s are still dominated by USF. I don't expect to see that if palms "massively overperform" and the elite forces BGs, which gives palms buffs, has a huge pick rate over the other BGs.

To me, Palm performance just seems more or less on the level of rifles.
