If Kremlin is so OP

[Puffin_]

Why is she not more popular in Random Battles?

Are there any stats that show how popular T10 ships are?

Kreml will be not OP anymore, she gets nerfed EXTREMLY in the upcoming patch tomorrow so she will become unplayable.

• she is not "OP"
• she is too strong
• she belongs to the newest BB line and not many players own her
• a large number of her owners are veterans
• the RU BB line is not beginner friendly as showing broadside and camping all match gets you bad results

an AA mount HP nerf?

 

lol.

 

t8 cv’s can already take out a Kremlin on their own, this doesn’t make a difference tbh. I’ll just be asking my teammates to only fire HE at them lol.

 

this isn’t a nerf, not vs other BB’s.

Too strong is actually my definition for overpowered ^^

I am more nuanced than most people.

You know there is this new legendary module that is in testing phase its called "sarcasm and irony" it will go to the 6th slot so only equipable by T9 and 10. The thing why it's still in testing phase "it may can confuse players".

Give her a spotter plane that might make her a tad more OP, I don't really think she is OP,  not really my go to BB at tier 10, got the Thunderer now but even that is not the go to ship, if any I would say the GK is.

Also Thunderer and Kreml have two completly different roles.
GK OP alright please nerf my roon then too because she deals DMG to enemys

You are right re: Thunderer and Krmyl, but please tell me where I said the GK was OP?

Because many tomatos fail with the t3-6.

you talked the whole time from OP and in the end you said "if any i would say the GK is" so i ASSUMED you ment the GK but now after i read it a few times i get it sry was my fault.

[Miscommunication_dept]

I don’t find her fun to play. I’d much rather take out my GK or Thunderer.

Grand 12vs12 BB Battle - Kremlin vs GKUR,

When it comes to the Soviet BB line I feel its like this.

tier 3 is irrelevant

tier 4 is pretty strong althou there are better ships, like könig albert

tier 5 is decent, its very similar to Kongo in its playstyle. But I prefer the shotguns of Texas

tier 6 is irritating but you can have good games in it. Its a shot gun but the turrets are SO slow. Arizona is miles better thou.

tier 7 Sinop, I absolutely hate this ship. I know everyone says its OP but it just doesnt work for me, it doesnt hit, it doesnt pen, its slow, sluggish with slow turrets and you get blapped in the nose too easely.

tier 8 one of my favorites in the line. Its still inaccurate even at short ranges but it can tank like no tomorrow. Do feel NC is stronger thou and it has no chance in a brawl against a Tirpitz or Massy

tier 9. Skipped this ship but from what Ive heard its one of the worst in the line.

tier 10. Edited because oppinion completely changed after the patch

[Logan_MountStuart]

This thread proves that no ship is perfect for everyone, I found Sinop and Sovetsky Soyuz very easy to play and strong, but wasn't as good in Vladivostock.

Now at 30 battles with Kremlin and it was feast or famine for a long time, a few 150k+ games but a few 20-30k capitulations and horrible deaths to Smolensk, Worcester and Harugumo, plus the ignominious 0k damage game when I could see much, couldn't hit anything and died in near disgrace!

But, it is coming together and in the last half dozen I've been comfortably over 100k in all, which is where I suspect one should be.  I find it's a ship that needs to be a support for DDs and Cruisers, yes you can snipe at the beginning but being behind a positive DD and a couple of decent cruisers then you are extremely powerful, on your own you are definitely weaker than some such as Thunderer or Yamato that can sit at range and still be effective.

It's fun though although I apologised to a Minotaur, I play a lot of Mino, who turned just as my shells were enroute and disappeared after 56 seconds of a battle, there was no apology for one shotting a slightly angled Smolensk who had just smoked up in preparation to cremate me!

No worries dude I get things wrong all the time, favourite bad habit of mine is while trying to type hitting the wrong key and smoking up i the spawn area, only on certain ships ofc(no BB's)

Ahhhh forgive me for not realising that someone I don’t know, who I have never interacted with and that I was reading text of was being sarcastic and/or ironic.

 

also, it didn’t say “EXTREMELY” before lol.

[El2aZeR]

One of these days people will realize that the strength of a ship is just one rather small aspect in the popularity of a ship.

Think I only played one random battle in it but Ive played plenty of CBs and ranked in it. Extremely broken ship and by far the best tier 10 BB. Basically it has no weakpoints. Best in tier AA. Immortal especially with Kuznetsov

Afaik Kuznetsov's abilities dont work in clan battles.

[SlingaDing]

At the weekend from 1 x salvo fired I got 72,000hp with 5 x citadels on a Yamato, FROM 1 x SALVO!!! 😲 The guy was furious, accused me of cheating, being a bot etc etc, and then continued to abuse me in the menu chat after the game 😳😂

 

Kremlin is grossly OP (but fun 😁)

I thought I recognised your style. Your "alt" you mentioned in another thread, is Nooby Skooby right?

 

He's the only other person I can remember wanting to put spotter planes on EVERYTHING. I know this thing hardly exhibits the poor accuracy of the lower Soviet BBs, but Jesus Christ fella

This is not really showing, which ship is stronger. It's influenced by the players skill, I guess the team were not 100% even. I mean, good players can archieve great results in underpowered ships. Also just only one match. Additionally not a real combat situation, dds are missing. ^^

Though it was interesting to watch
