Here is my Yamato, which took the flag from Shiki and Ohio;

felicitări, gj

@Ocsimano18 I know you like numbers in ranked, so here is a little digging. Until now, below ships ranked out as the most played ships. Meaning, the ranked out player possibly played other ships, too, but they played below (X) ship the most; - 10 Stalingrad - 9 Bourgogne - 7 Petra - 6 Thunderer - 5 DM - 4 Hindenburg/4 Smaland/4 Venezia - 3 Marceau/3 Smolensk - 2 Kremlin/2 MvR/2 Minatour/2 Daring - 1 Goliath, 1 Hakuryu, 1 Halland, 1 Harugumo, 1 Kleber, 1 Ohio, 1 PR, 1 Shima, 1 Yamato These ships ranked out in 100 and below games; 4 Bourgogne 2 Hindenburg/2 Smaland 1 Marceau/1 MvR/1 DM/1 Thunderer/1 Smolensk/1 Halland/1 Kleber/1 Somers/1 Venezia So far; The ship that ranked out with least amount of games is Hindenburg with 53 games. The ship that ranked out with most amount of games is Marceau with 294 games. EDIT: Added Animalul2012

No problem connecting.

Also many top players.

Isn't that the super tester who continuously yoloed with CV? Or this is different one?

I have it. Fun ship, accurate guns.

Yes, in only randoms i played 33 games with Slava and 27 with Thunderer. I don't agree with this sniping meta either and also saw many stay at borders with these ships. I play both BBs at all ranges, and even go into cap when i have to, depending on the game situation ofc, i don't suicide. But Slava is nowhere near OP. I wouldn't even consider it that strong. TBH, it isn't worth the RB points unless you are a collector, imo. It has one gimmick, punishing broadside targets (as if other ships can't do that). Okay Slava does it a bit better but it has nothing extra. If enemy ships are nose in or angled, all Slava will do is either a couple of K dmg at best or no hit. Horizontal dispersion is horrendous. Then, as an alternative option you can burn them. But we have better burners than Slava as well. It isn't the fastest BB either. It doesn't have Kremlin armor either. Under normal circumstances it should not be near to close to mid ranges because it can't tank, will just melt. That's why it is a sniper and i understand people who stay far back with it but there is a thin line for deciding when to snipe from back and when to push. I guess that creates some confusion among the players as many tend to choose staying back for a long period of time.

You wrote stalingrad can disengage any time and reverses in his pet island and not only me but some others also wrote why can't other cruisers do that since you cant hit a ship behind the island. Who wrote about face tanking DM or Woster? You wrote AP is a big threat to DM and Mino. If they use the island like the stalingrad in your example why would it be a threat? And does that mean Stalingrad can take AP? But ofc you know what IJN BBs can do or not do to cruisers better than us. Later you wrote Stalingrad is able to set up cross fires, and we wrote how come Moskva can't do that? You also wrote Moskva AP is not as good as using this position. Did you ever fire with Moskva to broadside ships? Anyway this is a nonsense back and forth writing which isn't worth more time spending. Gl hf with your ship (that you never sailed) play style analysis and teachings to others who care. Out.

What tournament? We were talking about you pretending to know how Stalingrad can not be damaged by BBs or how Mino, dm, Wooster would play against BBs, what ap does to them, how Moskva he is less impactful etc. you were teaching us these ships with zero experience in them. When did we come to tournaments and line ups? Are you trying to change the subject?

Your opinions are fact? And your opinions based on what? Hands on experience?

No one said you can't comment. You can comment on ships you never played. I, for instance, will just not take your comments serious and will rather ask someone who owns and plays the ship if i have question. Meanwhile you can keep judging ships you don't own, who cares.

I remember there used to irrevocable ranks in regular ranked system like at rank 5 and 10. Maybe they could bring that back. I'm sure it'd be helpful to many players.

Maybe they mean morning hours until lunch time which has lower activity than evening-night time usually. They may arrange it similar to CB hours.

So, you want to farm steel but you also want to do it with help from others. Well, i hope they include steel in Ranked Sprint one day, gl with that.

Judging ships without having hands on experience which is more important than hear-say btw, is like for someone saying (who didn't drive them before) Porsche is better than Ferrari. You are basically judging ships based on what you see from videos or in games how others play versus people's opinion who play the ship themselves. If you are planning to buy a ship let's say Shikishima, and one person says they saw it in a game or video and it plays like this, like that while another person tells you their personal hands on experience on Shikishima which one would you take more serious?

Then, ranked sprint is the right one for you.

Good point, so one still needs separate accounts to play in other regions.

So basically what you are saying is aiming has nothing to do with it but rng decides if it will be a citadel or not? I though rng decides only to a certain percentage.

Tbh with you, i still citadel cruisers with budyonny from near and far distances if i catch them broadside.

because they can't use the same island stalingrad does? just lol. that means you haven't seen enough. You have only thunderer as a tier 10 bb and henri with smolensk as cruisers. You complain about not being able to damage stalingrad with thunderer because it hides behind an island and you comment about how moskva/dm/wooster/mino would play against BBs although you have no hands on experience in any of them. I've never been to moon but I can moon walk as good as Astronauts because i watched MJ a lot.

I saw 65-70% div lose.

Yea and not being aware of Kleber/Marceau duo.

They will do some damage too of course, it is normal but unless you show broadside it is okay. BBs will sink them close, medium or far range. Roughly, cruisers don't excel at one vs one fights against BBs but catching BBs off guard while they are busy with other ships. A couple of days ago with Ohio, i deleted a Petra with one salvo from 10km which was perfectly bow-in and had around half HP. By the way Petra is like Slava, unless it catches broad side targets it can't damage much. Stalingrad hits a bit better. Tl;dr, yes naturally with their RoF cruisers will deal quite some damage to BBs but they will eventually lose the fight unless they outnumber the enemy or catch them off guard broad side or low hp. Hence, i don't think it is correct to say "there is no need to play BBs anymore because we have super/heavy cruisers".
