Yay, I joined the club.

So, I had some of the free christmas containers lying around just in case one of them contained some premium time, and opened them all tonight. And lo and behold 

Spoiler

 

I feel speshul.

 

Also, for some reason my brain decided to replace the words in a classic meme song with "Makarov, Khabarovsk". And now you all have to suffer as well.

Congrats! 

Getting a Makarov is such a rare occurrence. 

I've seen tons of Gremys and Kamikaze as well as Cesares in low tiers, but Makarovs are such a rare sight.

 

I can only imagine the envy the other 23 players are going to feel...sigh

My brother who doesn't play now, his account got a free Makarov, but did either my EU or NA account get one - NO ....... I got 'ripped' off (lol).

All that fuss and nothing changes ;)

Actually I wanted a Makarov. It’s a premium Nurrmberg with high AA. I think it’s nice as free drop. It’s a different story if you have actually paid for the crates.

[Bindolaf_Werebane]

I didn't get one either :(

 

And here I had grand plans for Christmas morning every year to be Makarov day, where we play Makarovs all morning and pew pew together in harmony. Nope, was not to be...

I did drop the Makarov this x-mas season. You guys just didn’t believe in WG’s xmas magic hard enough.

we are many, for we are Makarov

There are no true believers who do not wait for the blessings from Father Kislyi!

So far that I know it always been a fact you best not buy Christmas containers  if you don't have all the common (which means not overpowered) tier 6 ships. Before Makarov  you had a high chance of getting the Graf Spee (in previous events). Even if you sold that ship before. You were practically guaranteed you would get the Graf Spee back. And with this Christmas it was the Makarov.

 

I don't understand why people are upset now. It was a well known fact. At least by me.

It is also a well known fact, that if you buy ALL premiums WG throws in the store, you have a huge chance of dropping rare and removed premiums from xmas boxes.

Me too, which was why I bought one waaaaaay back, when they were briefly available.

 

Like *most* of the ships on the short lists, she's pretty decent; the entire problem was that WG's marketing didn't explain properly (or at all, really) how the Xmas boxes actually worked.

They didn't have to explain how Xmas Boxes worked. This was obvious from the start.  Typical  promotion for the Suckers who want to pay to lick a possible Lollipop.
