Hi all,

And nope... not enough... :Smile-angry::Smile_sad:

Yes Kutuzov game when your team almost fail to do anything - had 2 surface ship + 1 cv that helped me on my flank against 6 sank 4, the rest of my teams 7 non Cv ships failed to sink a thing on their flank, last enemy ship was sunk by the CV, when the enemy closed in, the enemy Cv tried to cap - thank you for Kraken. One enemy player was really good -rest were below me, nevertheless a good Kutuzov result

Yesterday I came back after two months break (ok I tested Langley few games in between) and oh boy was I in a treat.

12 games and 3 wins. It was mind boggling to see how players play even in high tiers. Best example was my own teams Neptune player in a Hotspot map. Drove straight into A cap, got spotted by radar from Krohnstadt and died to enemy fire. After that he/she started blaming WG, radar and OP Krohnstadt although he/she drove like a bot in coop. In few matches teams melted so fast nothing could be done. First everything was fine and both teams were in equal numbers and suddenly "You are our last hope" voice sounds in my earphones and I'm all like "WTF just happened?" I somewhat understand teams/players melting in fast paced games like CS:GO, BF or even WOT but I don't understand it in WOWS because this game is pretty slow paced and you have time to think and maneuver accordingly to live just a bit longer to help your team.

Honestly this match was mainly frustrating as the majority of BBs on my team kept sailing back and forth as far away from the caps as possible spamming HE and even when we were hunting the CV they refused to go anywhere near the caps, still was satisfying attacking and killing a Kamikaze R when in a Kongo

This match just crushed my mentality. My team was griefing and did not want to win because we would not cap A point. I was trying my best, but sometimes your best is not enough haha. (mind the potential damage)

Man those teams... :Smile_sceptic: Lemming to A. Lemmings gets halted by 2 Missouris sitting at a Rock. Everyone dies.

Meanwhile i have to kill/brawl Azuma and Musashi in our spawn, while getting flanked by an Alsace :Smile_smile:

Drive-by vs Musashi were 6 Citas, he didnt even shoot me :cap_cool:

At the start our Yugumo was about to leave our flank, leaving us blind. Gladly the enemy DD rushed in as fast as he could, so we killed him. Then our Yugumo and Lyon got an idea to go push down the line nine, with no chances of ever succeeding in it. TLDR: Yugumo dies without really achieving much and Lyon finds himself in a situation, where Iowa and Bismarck are pushing towards him. Had this Lyon had any capacity to think further than next five seconds, he would have rammed the Iowa, who was low enough to be a secured kill. He doesn't and gets killed, which for the end of this story is a fatal error for us.

 

While this Lyon scene is happening, we manage to get down a few enemies, clawing back a lot of points for us. I even get my first ever Kraken with Yamamoto (don't really play with him). Fast forward the situation: we need to kill the Bismarck and Iowa to get ahead in points. Well, we kill the Bisko and Iowa is left very low when the time runs out. At the end I did one mistake, which might have caused the loss at that point: I shot one salvo at the Bismarck, should have shot it at the Iowa instead. Oh well, just too much pressure at that point to retain clear thinking.

 

I'm not even angry at all. I guess I achieved enlightenment after witnessing too much stupid actions that I don't feel pain anymore. Now I'm just amused at the outcome of the battle.

- Winning narrowly by ~15 points

- Fairly low HP GK under air attack, enemy Mino about to round a corner to shoot him too

- 10 seconds on the clock

- All GK needs to is to turn INTO the torps which would automatically angle him to the Mino as well

You may guess what he did.

He turned out ofc, ate 3 torps and Mino finished him off.

And according to him it was my fault that we lost.

Clearly.

The low tier 6 without def AA really tried to carry, but got finally sunk by the tier 8 CV. :Smile_hiding:

Still, it was possible to contribute significantly to the game. :etc_hide_turtle:

As MM took me into tier 8 games with 2 CVS in all 7 games this  Saturday I switch to work a bit which probably is more reasonable, lol

weekend in full action.

 

Red lex did well with the tools he had - while ours rushed a cap with his carrier. In a real game that would fall under sabotage and be punishable.

:cap_haloween: 3 down after 3 minutes due to heading out to confront the attacking team.. last 6 minutes we were 2 and I tried, but unfortunately they got the last generator with 20 sec left and then could long range hit the station :etc_red_button:

With that magic heal I could hold the northern flank alone against 2 Alster, 1 Galaxy and a Paris. This was hell of a ride and fun :fish_nerv:

Had about 80% losses today. After this game, I decided to stop for today, since it was a clear sign that winning was not.

After a while, this one seems to fit perfectly.

In the stupid t6-8 MM with 4 carriers it was not enough to have a double kill on enemy carriers and finishing the only enemy DD and two cruisers ;)

Salem for the win.  However, I have noticed that many times my team mates (you can also call them second enemy team if you like) are playing tier 7 and above ships with a total less than 300 or even 200 hundred battles.  Most of the times they are playing premium ships but what they all have in common regarding of premium or silver ships is that they are totally clueless thus being a liability for the team.
