Hi all - really struggling with T10 CV play So I stopped playing CV's after the rework and only picked them up again end of 2019, mainly US carriers. It took a while to work out what I was doing but after reading a few guides I got a good idea, and did alright with the Lexington (87 games, 60% W/R, 2003 PR and 72k avg. dmg). Feeling confident of the jump, I bought the Midway over the weekend and ever since then I can't buy a win and constantly get blamed for playing poorly - basically the opposite of the Lexi experience. (27 games, 22% W/R, 1324 PR and 91k avg. dmg). I would like to think it’s not me, but it’s hard to argue the stats and I just can’t win. The things I’ve found jumping to T10 1) The increase in flak is massive, most games are fully T10 and there’s not many ships with crud AA 2) A lot of platoons, that generally stick together making them hard to attack 3) Better players - rarely you find many lone ships steaming around and attacking a group to T10 ships seems like suicide for my planes. 4) Midways spotting range is HUGE, anything but hiding at the back usually leads to quick death. 5) My opposite number is always good I usually start with my rocket planes and scout, especially for DD’s and attack when feasible. Usually, I then jump into torpedo bombers and try to hunt a lone battleship. If I have to attack a group, I dump on section before doing so, to avoid losing the whole squadron – dodging the infinite number of flak bursts seems to be as much about luck as skill, the sky’s full of them at T10! The crux of it is, I think I got a reasonable idea of what I’m doing but struggling to adjust. I might just be extremely unlucky; I swear every team I’ve been on seems to lose 3 ships within 2 minutes but some of it at least must be down to my poor play - any tips or I’m going back to my Lexi!?? Thanks, Admiral Of The Fleet

This thing needs a nerf now, you can tell how OP it is by the fact ever game is full of them.

When these game ruining things getting nerfed - can spot too early in the game, to quick return time - i.e. can farm the same ship over and over, to accurate, -can't dodge and no counter, the game sucks with cv's

The CV rework has ruined the game - end of

Last seven days, I've played 42 won 12 (28%) - beat that
