Weeeellll I tried, Russian bias only carries you so far. 4v1 at the end and though I managed to make it 2v1 I had a Tirpitz/Zao combo rushing me at the end - accelerated to dodge the Tirpitz torps and attempted to blap the Zao while simultaneously ramming and killing the Tirpitz - sadly neither worked.

 

Always nice when you get more base exp in a defeat than the leader on the winning team though...

When having one of the top CV players on the whole f-in server isn't enough...

Triple DD at the bottom. Let me guess: They rushed the caps and died?

Somehow underlines, that the most important class still are the DDs and games mostly are decided over points and due to this caps.

Those cleanups by CVs with 7/8 kills carrying a game to a win no matter what are exceptions.

When you're in a tier VIII 8km torp DD in a tier X battle with 4 enemy radar cruisers and a CV, and you're the one who has to carry your team kicking and screaming in the direction of a victory.

Well sometimes the game doesn't want you to win no matter what.

That was in a T6-T8 matchmaking, Couldn't have been far from a second High Caliber...

Hi all,

 

Lost 2 battles in a row by 10-15 points... heartbreaking... both times 2 kills together with 200K+ damage and still nothing... :Smile_sad:

I'd like once more to thank Wargaming out of the depths of my heart, for nerfing DoT into oblivion to save the masterrace and making their high tier economy accommodate to the mongrels - so everyone can now play tier ten over and over while doing 20k damage.

DoT is all over the shop with CV’s, you struggle to get floods after 20 torps in IJN CV’s yet my Saipan can set 25 fire in a game? 

 

I can’t see any logic in the damage system sometimes

A bit off topic, but I have just recently started to play wot blitz, and I feels easier to carry a potato team(when I say easier, it is still very hard, but not impossible like wows) disregarding the team number difference. Looked up on some YouTube videos to find some legendary carries, there is definitely a lot more wot ones compared to wows ones, and most of the “carries” in wows are more often then not killstealing kill securing, kemping island and spamming HE non stop, etc, while wot YouTube carries are actually good.

 

If anyone has played both pc version of both games, what is your opinion on the matter on carriablilty of teams in both games? Personally I feel wot is easier as it is significantly more fast paced like a FPS shooter game, where it is possible for one man carry provided you have enough skill, plus the terrain is more “3D”, as in multiple elevation where you can get the high ground/low ground, and use dips and ridges as cover also TTK ratio is lower vs wows. In wows, well ocean is technically the most realistic map :P, and a island does not mean you are safe from being fired upon, and HE ammo means that a bottom tier ship can actually hurt a higher tier ship provided fitted with correct skills and some luck, while in wot a bottom tier tank is unlikely to hurt a higher tier one. Oh and wows is more RNG dependent as well, which can screw up important shots more often.

This game was such a shame - first Witherer award I've earned in ages. Majority of it came from a Bismarck extinguishing one fire and me promptly setting 4 new ones on him.

 

Points were 520-608 with 1 min left to play - I managed to gun down the Kitakaze but unfortunately lost so much HP doing so that when I was forced to hunt the Chapayev or lose I was sunk easily.

 

5.5km concealment is great though. I torped a Tirpitz nearly to death from point-blank range and he had no idea where I was!

CQE was against a red Bismarck.

 

Doesn't matter in the end when people throw their ship away for zero reasons and top tier ships could as well have brought a tier 3.

I admit I still enjoy playing the ARP Kongo even with the interesting colour scheme, and low tier battles are always amusing although sometimes its painful to watch, its also just shocking when you have to solo cap not once but twice

More than double xp of the next dip$hit once again. (edit: that's not even exactly true, cause I guess he did decent for a tier 6 compared to the t8 bots)

 

Standard battle, left flank collapses and red team pushes through. What does glorious team do? Well, try to find the enemy kaga of course with our zero AA, so at least he can have a decent game and to guarantee there is absolutely zero percent of me aiding them. But sure, let's keep blaming carriers.

 

Here's my nostradamussing for today: this is exactly how ranked will go. Some nitwits will do something extremely braindead and give the red carrier free frags - and blame their own carrier for their stupidity - if he/she dares to say anything in return, it will only guarantee that the automatic chatmisbehaviour reports will activate.

 

Won't withhold the forum & reddit community to blame it all on cvs too of course.

2019, year of the scapegoat.
