Is it a record? Solo Warrior 1 vs 7

[Saltface]

I recently played a T VII battle in my Gadjah Mada and earned my first Solo Warrior.

It was a 1 vs 7 situation.

 

I did some research and found some spectacular performances in terms of damage and kills. But did not find a bigger ship difference, Has anyone heard of 1 vs 8 or more? Or my 1 vs 7 is a record?

 

It was a very frustrating game. For both teams. The red team while two ships down and almost 300 points back managed to turn it around. They eliminated all of my team and took all 4 caps. However, a last minute kill turned the tables around.

The dialogue is revealing.

 

Spoiler

 

Anyway, if someone knows of a game that ended with a bigger difference than 1 vs 7 please post it.

Well done. Don't forget to upload it to wows replays. If you like you can send me the replay and I will put it on my YT channel for future generations.

1) I had a Kitakaze game where we won despite being down 6 ships at one point, and I got 7 kills. But that's not it, I still had some help at the end.

 

2) I recently lost a Standard Battle game due to a lone DD capping us - but he had a teammate still alive, something like 2v8.

 

Your game could be a record, especially in Domination mode.

Well if 7 enemies were left and you still won - your team was really throwing ultra hard.

How about the enemy team? They had 4 caps, with a current equal point count, and six ship lead.

If you manage to lose that, you screwed up big time

 

Even a 12 vs 6 loss would be emberassing at that poibt, but 7 vs 1?

Both teams screwed up. But the enemy team did that in the beginning (leaving the caps totally and giving the green team giant lead in points) and then the green team got the "green light win harder" and they went yolo to get some dmg.

absolutely accurate

It is as if the red team did not want to get one ship in the circles!!

Having 23 solo warriors on my account I saw a lot of such situations. Weird things can happen, unexplainable.

Sooooooo

Neither of you are surprised that the enemy managed to lose from the point that OP posted? You can deduce the history, yes, but my main concern is how could the enemy lose against OP?

Ive earned a handful (quite literally i think) of solo warriors, and generally you are either massively ahead in both points and caps, or your enemy is doing some idiocratic stuff- regardless of how good you yourself play.

In this case, OP is behind 4 caps and 6 ships, so the enemy must thrown away 3-4 ships completely.

I had few of such solo warriors but not against 7. Mostly 4-5. And one of them was in Vermont. Simply the enemy team was out of position and I was running away recognizing that I won by time anyway while they were killing off the rest of my team. The Vermont solo warrior I got 3 reports for "not helping the team" while I was screaming in chat "stop pushing".

OK here is the storyboard.

 

Moment 1 - 5:29 on the clock

This is how it looked. I have no kills, little damage but 3 caps in my collection. And I have taken a lot of damage in C cap. And it was my bad play. I misplayed and got punished badly.

We have all caps, we are almost 300 points ahead and down 3 ships.

Red team is ignoring all caps except A. I wonder what was going through their minds. Especially the Akatsuki. Clearly she could have caped at least C

 

Moment 2 -  4:43 on the clock

I have just killed the Gneisenau in D2 and the point margin increases to 328

Red team naturally takes A but still they ignore all other caps. The Akatsuki hasn't been seen.

However the Red team is rushing all caps and kills eventually all my team mates.

The count down to defeat has started.

 

Moment 3 - 1:09 on the clock

All caps are red, the tide has changed and the score is only 40 points to our favor and it is me against 7 red ships.

I was blocking their A cap for a bit of time cutting off some points that proved valuable at the end.

I know that if I get one BB more I 'll put 100 points on the board.  The Gneisenau is rushing back to A cap to push me out or sink me.

One of my first torp launch hit one on the Geisenau. He swears politely.

I have kept one more so I can launch it with better odds. He insta repairs the flood.

 

Moment 4 - 37 seconds on the clock

All our score margin is lost. We are trailing 19 points, and there are no more cap points coming.

I have launched my second torp set, some of my team are asking to gun him down. I am low health so I cant. Even if they look at me I 'll sink.

My div mate and one other teammate put their hopes on the torps. So do I. I have started already to run away and I 'm playing at the limit of my concealment.

Fingers crossed. Rien ne vas plus.

 

Moment 5 - 29 second on the clock

Glory Glory Hallelujah for one team, frustration for the other.

The Gneisenau is sunk. The score is now 68 points for us and it cant be reversed. There are only 29 seconds to go. 

Each cap ticks 4 points every 9 seconds 3 X 16 = 48 points, even if it would tick four times it is 4 X 16 = 64. We win by the narrowest margin.

The points that I blocked while in their cap are Gold.

The Gneisenau that pushed my out of the cap I was blocking instructs me to procreate, my div mate is exhaling, I don't know how long he was holding his breath.

And I am running away. I know we won.

The last ten seconds ticks sound like music to my ears.

God I want the replay. I want to see the stupidity of the 7 enemy ships that threw this.

 

edit:

nevermind just saw the storyboard. It's not as epic as I originally expected but still very well done man

I think the mistake was at the early to mid stages of the game. The replay is here. And I detail all my misplays. LOL

Thank you mate. Can I ask you if you have records that we can consult to see if this is a record solo warrior?

[Aetius85]

Well done mate!

Excellent stuff, also well done on the video. Very dry comments LOL. 

I have done 7 kills with Ryujo but there were some of the team left, although in the end that was 5 vs me. 

Then I had to kill all 5 of them to win... (already killed 2...)

It was on 2 Brothers map and I went through the middle in the CV... that was hilarious... yes, zero karma... 

 

But I think 1 vs 7 is a record.        

Very well played, I bet you got zero karma too hahaha!

Kudos to you, Saltface.   No matter how you think you played you won it for your team & we've all seen both ones own team and/or the enemy team inexplicably decide to toss the Win into Davey Jonses' locker.

[Trench4nt]

In fact, in thousands of matches, I cannot remember attending a solo warrior game with more than four ships in the enemy team, except for a single 1vs6 one 

 

 

https://replayswows.com/replay/137575#stats

 

which was my first and - for a very long time - only solo warrior. I am very proud of this match and I still remember nearly every second. Unfortunately, WoWs Replays did not upload a Youtube video of this, but I encourage you to try it with your replay! I guess everybody loves to watch those matches!

 

I found at least one other 1vs7. But nevertheless, all these matches are unique and records on their own, cause they occur very very rarely.
