So your 1 clan, that 'most of the time' doesn't use stalingrads and all the others do...… If its so easy to counter, why do so many of the top clans play with multiple of them. 1/3 of the bottom of the bow does make a large difference for frontal cits at close - mid range. The ap angles are still completely not needed and on the ap pen, its about 40mm lower than the monty across all ranges, 20mm lower than 406 curry at all ranges, with close ranges being even less. around 50mm less than 420 curry, so I would defiantly call it bb ap. Fair enough with the steel after xmas, at least it will give less experienced clans higher chances, since we all will now have the same roster of ships. No one is playing mosvka….. Sure been in gale 1 with both teams for about 2 weeks now, facing Storm and typhone every game due to mm, but this isn't about my clan, the argument is that if your trying to be an emerging team, your chances are greatly reduced due to not having stalins because they have not competed in the last seasons at a higher enough level. 'Playing field' referes to the bow in holding, long range memes with the Moskva. Its not like we dont beat teams with stalins, we do, and we have quite a bit, but because they do have said ships we are facing an up hill battle, since they have this second or 3 rd ship that has the guns of ap. All this talking of getting gud and your 1.5k pr, smh.

WARNING!! : Biased rant incoming, easily triggered people be warned. Is it OP? Maybe, Can it be countered? To an extent, Is it a HUGE advantage for clans and players who have played 2enough seasons of CB to a higher enough level to get it compared to those who have not? 100% Yes. In every single top 24 EU clans only 1 runs ONLY 1 Stalin, with all others running more! It is a massive advantage to have this ship with a broken bow, USN AP angles and BB pen on a cruiser, in a game mode that limits bb amount to only the select few who got to high enough CB levels early on. It is a joke that this ship has completely replaced the Moskva, with not a single of the previously mentioned top 24 clans using a single bloody Moskva! The Moskva is by no means weak, its a very well balanced and strong ship, but is completely outclassed in its playing field by the Stalin. I plea that WG put stains within the bb bracket for CB mm or just ban them straight up from comp. I hardly think that anyone will argue that the Stalin has improved the gameplay for CB. Also here is the image that shows the stalins in the top 24 EU clans.

This has to be just a jebait

Better armour on these cruisers wouldn't help that at all, it would just mean more pens that would be ate. RN cls are a perfect example of a line with a high skill floor which is what is needed more in this game! The higher tier ships are now the only cruisers in game that can stealth radar, this is a huge perk that has limited counter, the pure dps and threat to the dds is massive. A radar mino in a random, in my opinion has one of the largest carry potentials. Then you got the flip side, you pop in smoke and your suddenly a great utility ship, defiantly in CB, we sometimes use the Wooster with a mino, its a blast. Please no more moaning from people that dont understand that every line doesn't have to be noob friendly and easy to play!

Feelsbad,, discord took a dump at pretty much the same timeWOWS broke for me which is funny. At one point I was in 3 divs at once, and was in battle while in port looking at my name on the clan chat channel with the crossed swords. No more perth fun for me tonight, got in the free Xmas containers and I am in love.

As said above a change to MM would not have changed anything. That div is hardly comp at all, running a z52 with a cv is not a great idea. Your CV was a ITA player, so that would probably explain why it was a loss. Nothing to do with the mm or any ships in the game, simple shows how much affect a cv with brains has when fighting a potato.

I want to join the lottery.

Again another ramble about the YY torps. The justification to nerf it has been the radar, so they slam both the torps and guns, flawless logic. Radar YY actually takes a lot of skill to pull off and can be extremely situational so needs a high level of game awareness to work, I dont see why good play should not be rewarded. The high avrg dmg of the YY is because of the DW torps, the hit rate compared to a normal torp is higher. Did the YY need a little nerf? Probably yes, I think knocking off 2 or 3 knots on the torps would have been a better more. . I see no reason to suffer through the terrible t8 to pursue the ship. If any tx dds need any it has to be a few buffs to the Z-52. NB : I would mention a slight nerf to the haru, but I know IFHE is gonna be getting a rework, so I assume that will affect the dmg out put of the ship.

I dont really see the issue, people are not playing co-op, cause its co-op so the games can be filled with bots. Even if your team is full of bots, ur still a player, so your team should have a major advantage and still win...

4 games in t8, all bottom tier, as either the single t8, or my div being the only t8s on our team. These are heavy tx games with 1 - 2 t9s......

i seem to be doing ok. Just behind flamu.

If your really having problems just div anchor with a t7 CV

Its really not that bad currently compared to other t9 ships. I personally think the FDG is in a worse state atm. Even so I would put it down to a different play style to the amagi, but the largest factor is that you seem to be a really eh - bellow average player.

So currently have the Rep one, Wooster and Moskva. The rep one seems really nice so far, same with the Moskva, but this Wooster one is a total waste of time, with the nerfed radar and even before the radar was nerfed its totally not worth it. I really hope they rework it so its actually useful. For some reasons the forum has gone potato and posted the start of this after I have posted it :/
