Brought out the Atago to get some cash while I do 8/9 ranked and it's been a good day with few CVs and people who actually try to win unlike in random games. Overall most people are trying to work as a team and it's been a pleasant surprise from the normal game. 
It's nice to actually caring about the game for a while, having something to compete about for a change.

Yeah, in my experience it's best to split but be careful, so if you got lemmings that side retreats and defends and waits for crossfire.

Won 2 lost 1. 

 

On the one we lost, I had to sit through my team throw away a 3 ship lead and 200 point lead to lose. The bottom feeds threw their ships away. Never seen anything like it. DD only had to cap...... And he fired out of his smoke. Dribble down the chin. 

 

Not one game has anyone worked as a team. 

 

So no change and only the first bits of steel for me. All I can stand.

I think it's a combination of people assuming it's a safe win so they can yolo and people who are obsessed with chasing stats and PR. A lot of the time, thinking like that is contra productive imho.

rank 2 already, as I made a promise to spam CV if I didn't get enty I'm doing that, and the kill tally is already going up. I'm going to kill 1000 players before I touch a surface ship again.

Well I've always had a pretty good response when I talk with people in ranked in chat, even if I just get 1-2 people to team up it's often enough. There are always gonna be people who doesn't read, or doesn't care, but thats just a variable. The most important part for me personally, is the "clean slate mentality" that I advocate for anyone that plays competitive games. Most of the time, people get more and more annoyed with certain plays, players or themselves and they take that energy to the next game and next game and so forth and in the end you just see all the bad that is going on.

Damn, I gotta check if the Atlantic still has salt in it,  or if you used it all up in this post. 

 

 

Ranked is very different from Random Games

 

* More motivated players
* Better and more competitive ships

* Smaller amount of players so you have a greater impact

 

It's surprising that you did not know this honestly, however I think it explains your usual responses. 

edited*

Edit : If you need any pointers on how to win in ranked, let me know. I'm pretty certain a player like you would never even think of taking a T8 into ranked, and since I do and have better stats I think you should heed my advice. Compare these stats with mine, and we can see that you're clearly inferior. So send me a DM buddy and I can explain how to play ranked best

Lost most of my ranked battles today, but personally did better in the lost battles than the ones that were victorious. Played Lightning for fun, and lost most battles, played Lion for a campaign achievement expecting losses and won most battles... 

 

Ranked was refreshing, even the losses!

Aha, so let me show some ranked players from today

Thats not all ofc, just collected from 1 game (except the first). Clearly, the creme de la creme of wows competetive scene. Dying within 2-4 minutes of playing time, much skill needed to do that! I mean it, you really need skill to be THAT useless :cap_like:

Yeah, Yugumo, Bismarck, Riga, Hizen, Östergötland, Bajie, Iowa, Roma, Buffalo, Kansas, Siegfried, Roon, FDG, Alsace, Tallinn - all highly competetive meta ships. Strongest what wows has to offer. Btw all ships ive seen today in my 6 ranked games - some of them several times even.

I wonder if you know, that if I´d have won 1 of the losses I´d have a higher WR than you ^^

 

But if your hate for me drives you to be a better player that now all of a sudden cares for stats - good for you! You are almost at my overall ranked winrate. Today that is. Keep it up, you might get there :)

You're welcome to play T8 and do better than me in ranked. My guess is that you have played T9 only and most likely it's a very strong ship. As opposed to me who play Atago so I get some cash while doing ranked.  

 

I will await your result

 

Edit : Obviously my stats has nothing to do with you, they are just a result of me being more motivated and focused. Obviously I've proved that getting good PR/WR is not that hard, as long as you care.

Doing okay with Seattle, didn't like CV too much and still hate battleships. Seattle is a fine ship.

Though what ship would wake up 3 AFK battleships? Can I have that ship?

It's a bit messy, as you would expect on day 1 ranked bronze. Teams are all over the place.

But my experience hasn't been too bad so far. Started with radar Edin just for the fun, then got to R5 with Lightning. Am calling it a day for now.

Don't you find Seattle a bit squishy?

Done. I get cookies now right? You will have a hard time to get to a 100% WR in T8s now tho :)

You get a cookie when you're rank 1 playing just T8 in Bronze league with good stats and PR. I'm glad you're motivated now.

11 games, 8 victories

 

Tried some different CVs like Indomitable, Implacable and Parseval, just because I barely play them in randoms. Then I did a game in Donskoi for the research bonus and went back to CVs. Rank 4 atm, so far nobody was afk, despite the horrible player quality.
