Depends what you use it for I think. And what the reds/team have. Sometimes I get 4 DDs, 4 cruisers, and 3BBs. Then I'll not want Manfred. But when I get 1 DD, 2 cruisers and a mega-load of BBs, I'd like to have FDR... I think Midway is most versatile though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[HAKUY] Yosha_AtaIante Players 8,032 posts 19,168 battles Report post #6503 Posted January 9, 2021 Midway is the most versatile CV and most comfortable to carry games in. Hakuryu is the best T10 CV if you can play it near perfectly and reliably hit DDs with its torps. All other CVs are Situational. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wonder what the best CV is in CB, if WeeGee (or when...) they put CV again. Situational yes, but this is kinda a "prescribed situation". You will not see 4 DDs, for example. I think it is not gonna be FD Roosevelt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[HAKUY] Yosha_AtaIante Players 8,032 posts 19,168 battles Report post #6505 Posted January 9, 2021 Roosevelt will be majority pick while the best clans will either play Manfred or Haku. Haku with captain skill rework will actually be nerfes a little. So I believe MvR will be seen most by top clans. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As of now - yes, at least for randoms and ranked I'd say. Hakuryu IMO got nerfed a bit too harshly, tho maybe some super unicrons can still play it and even enjoy it, but... eh why bother when there's a Midway.

Haku has incredibly high skill ceiling. If only Midway is played then one will never be able to use and understand Haku fully. Regular practice is very important on Haku.

Because I think Midway has a way more higher skill cap, because if you're good enough you can nuke dds with Tiny tims/bombs, you can torp them etc. While Haku player needs only to master torps really, everything else is way easier.

I have 900 battles in Midway and am pretty sure I can do all and every little thing that can be done. Haku however (Shoukaku) the more I play those two the more I notice that I still improve and learn new things, striking techniques, target prioritization and torpedo mastery. There seems to be no end yet for me in improvement in both of those. Haku also has much stronger tools to influence the match instantly while midway needs a bit more time to truly have impact. Midway being universal and not caring for who you target automatically reduces the skill ceiling massively while in Haku you really need to know what to strike and when/how. Haku has far more tools and approaches while Midway are very linear (but effective) Basically Midway to me feels like easy mode compared to Haku Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So I believe MvR will be seen most by top clans. used midway all clan brawls this december for a single day with a typhoon league clan and well, i'd say enemies got wiped out pretty quickly last match. (4 kills, no steals and won a lost game) Hakuryu vs Midway, who's the better in general? (random question that i just asked myself) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[HAKUY] Yosha_AtaIante Players 8,032 posts 19,168 battles Report post #6511 Posted January 9, 2021 skill ceiling means the way to be really good with a certain ship is either long or easy to reach. So for example midway skill ceiling being low means it's easier to be good in Midway. While on Haku you need more practice and time because the skill ceiling is higher. FDR for example has the lowest skill ceiling, mostly anyone can be good in that ship with very little or basic knowledge. Haku vs Midway? Midway is the safest pick for competetive. But I believe Haku is better overall Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like should you harass that static petro, or hunt down the dd, or maybe even stop the bb push?.. Haku is not entirely reactive of course but still it's not as versatile and naturally limeted, he always does something more effectively, like he can't nuke DD really, but he can definitely oblitirate static cruiser, you don't have as much options, you don't have to keep in mind which ship used his DCP and which didn't. 6 minutes ago, arquata2019 said: Hakuryu vs Midway, who's the better in general? (random question that i just asked myself) In randoms Midway was always better than Haku, even before the ap bomb's nerf. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I don't agree with the rest. That's fine however right? You have your reasons why you think Midway has a higher skill ceiling. I just believe the fact that Midway has easier target selection alone makes it way easier to master. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ngl I just have some personal bias against Haku after I had to play around 150 games on it in one CB season And I didn't play it in a damn while. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
