VPS with "OVH Anti-DDoS GAME".

Hey, are there any providers that re-sell OVH-Game Anti-DDoS servers as VPS?
I'm hosting a TS3 server, and OVH Anti-DDoS GAME TS3 rules are ideal for my needs but I don't want to waste a full dedicated server just for one TS3 server.
OVH SSD and Cloud VPS use Anti-DDoS PRO which is useless for my usage.

For anyone having the same question:
ExtraVM OpenVZ range and Dedishops VPS GAMES range have this protection.
I chose ExtraVM so my problem is now solved.

normally you can modify the firewall rules and TS3 working without any problems on Cloud VPS, I did for my personal TS3 server, 10 - 15 people without any issues.

The issue was forged L7 packets which took the TS3 offline while not neccessarily crashing or overloading the VPS. OVH-Game seems to fully mitigate these out of the box.
With the old setup, the only other way for me was to drop any packets of certain length or by certain hex via local iptables =/ And that was far from perfect.
I also struggled to take those high volume UDP floods while maintaining less than 40% overall packet loss. We'll see how things will turn out in this new setup as I'll make full review (Hopefully positive) after 2 months of usage.

If you're talking about using their network firewall and having it enabled 24/7 to filter traffic, this is not a good solution unless you like random packet loss.

What size of attacks do they block for you?

This was the typical output what went through OVH PRO but which was blocked by OVH-Game in extraVM
With iptables being
I also tried blocking by hex
But alas, none of this helped and it kept going through the OVH firewall, and the iptables.
Ive included pcap file in a .zip as attachment in case anyone is having the same problem.
But now since extraVM doesn't seem to leak this type of traffic through, I don't need to worry about blocking it at iptables for now. I suppose this is the OVH-Game anti-ddos blocking it.
