Whole night was a struggle for a win, it only got worse from this point on.

 

Looking at it afterwards, i think us going to C was a bad decision (but my first plan was to help at B first, but no enemy DD went there^^).

By the time i made it to C, 2 of ours basicly already yoloed into their doom. A push to C would have worked aswell, but our Yamato was rather going for B, because obviously was a retard team :cap_haloween:

Yeah, meanwhile at A I need to cosplay DD in Iowa sized ship as our Asashio stays behind me, even though enemy didn't have any DDs nor radar cruisers nearby :cap_fainting::fish_aqua:

Ah. Didn't notice there was a specific thread for this kind of BS... I posted it in the "achievements of the day".

 

well there ya go... the rest of the screenies are in the other thread, alongside my thoughts and opinions about the "excellency" and "proficiency" of the absolute imbeciles I had the pleasure to share "teams" with in these battles.

Sometimes I just want to scream and yell and punch and scream some more.

 

7th game in 24 hours where I break 200k damage, and my team of air thieves decide they don't give a damn about winning.

I'm seriously beginning to lose my sh1t....

I know that feeling... Yesterday I played one (1) match that made me decide to go back to hibernation some more

 

Example of things that happened in that match:

  1. My miserable gameplay in Helena netted 46 k damage (below my average) and I still ended up on top of the team
  2. our Mahan decided to open-water HE-spam the enemy Scharnhorst, and was so preoccupied doing so that the enemy Podvoisky (which was at half HP at the time) just deleted hm from full HP
  3. a third of my team (incuding not one, but two radar cruisers) took literally 10 minutes to take a cap that was being capped by one Podvoisky and then failed to kill the Podvoisky (the same mentioned in the above point)
  4. another DD of our team was torpedoed in his smoke because he was sitting stationary

Unsurprisingly, my team got squashed before I had even realised the full extent of what was happening. By minute 12 the only 4 ships remaining on our team were 3 of the 4 cruisers that went to the single cap denoted in my 3rd point (the 4th one died to Podvoisky torps. I say again: Podvoisky. Torpedes.) and me. At that point I had: capped a flag, killed one DD and scared off another one, set 4 fires, and caused a whopping 28k damage. By minute 15, I was up at 40k damage and was last man standing. Like I said, ended the match with 46k damage and was somehow still on top of my team, so sometimes I don't even know what this game is anymore.

 

PS: I'm pretty sure that not having a working mouse and playing on a shitty laptop somewhat limits my performance, but these matches are just pure "how is this even possible" material.

In the beginning I joked on TS that they don't really need our T8 div in this otherwise T9/10 match.

But ofc we bottom tierers were supposed to carry their as5es. This was so sad match. We had all practical map control, 3 caps and harassing 4th with a DD as enemy wasn't really near.

 

So, what to do when you have cap+map control, leading by far in points?

 

 

Spoiler

Defend, play safe.

 

No need to push.

 

Enemy has to.

 

Into the trap we set for them.

 

 

Right?

Spoiler

 

WRONG

 

Spoiler

 

Outcome in a nutshell:

 

YOLO * n

 

Easy win thrown away, like tears into rain.

I guess it's too boring to play for a safe win. Gotta take risks man!

 

Then our higher GK starts shíttalk in chat, blaming us campers after dying. Yeah, truly always his team fault he performs so well in GK

10 kills in a div is not enough to carry trash that only wants to throw.

Seriously, the standard of play has reached a new low today. I didn't even know that was possible. Every :etc_swear:ing time you get any sort of advantage your team immediately goes full :etc_swear:.

New damage record for me.

In a loss. Of course, in a loss. Fighting a flank pushed by a Salem, Republique, Montana, Yamato, Harugumo, Cleveland and whatnot (and of course with the random across-the-map crossfire) alongside a Montana (the Jutland and Salem that sailed with us died like derps early on), kiting, fighting, shooting, repairing, coming in, out, but steadily being pushed away towards our spawn...while the rest of our team (8 players) were massacred by the rest of their team (couldn't be more than 6)

 

Highlight of the match; As the idiots of our team were killed one by one the complaining began. By this stage the Montana and I had been pushed down from C back to spawn by the enemy rush. By this stage it was Republique, Yamato, Montana, Salem, against us two, and a Yueyang that was on freehunting mode (full health, btw, seems our team REALLY did a GREAT job) was flanking and torping us.

Chat: "our Montana and our GK are of a huge help"

 

2 seconds latter one of my volley landed on the broadsiding Yamato, doing 33k damage and giving me high caliber. I didn't bother answering. Thought that was answer enough.

 

By the end of the match (I was rammed by a 2/3 health Republique when I was down to 25k hp...I will never understand the thought process of some players, but hey, that gave me 40k damage, not gonna complain as I was dead anyway)...well you can see the scoreboard. The "not helping" montana and GK topping the scoreboards having killed as many enemies as everyone else combined, letting alone that we probably both scored more damage, and tanked more damage, than the whole rest of our team combined.

yes, some teams just have absolutely NO redemption whatsoever.

Once managed 9 kills in 2-man-divi and lost. I raged for 3 days and 2 nights straight.

 

btw - its the map! Check @OM40 above - same stuff. Islands of Ice after the rework is just shortcutting the last functioning brain-cells in the playerbase.

I cried a little inside....

 

Doing a good job as a DD can be hard in these times, though admittently easier at lower levels where RADAR is not ruining DD play totally.

 

All my respect to those trying to carry games in DD's nowadays, or CL's for that matter.
