Good solid win, nice that CV was watching map and took requests.
It is a rare thing for a CV to do something like this which was really nice and probably made the difference in the result. Thanks for watching.
Pretty sure I saw your name once in a Jingles replay.
Really? I have only ever sent 1 replay in and can't remember seeing it but if he did put it out I will need to keep my eyes our for it. Thanks for watching :)
Ooh boyy.... that Colombo....😂😂😂😂
Yeah the guy had about 30 secs to realize his game was over lol
True! Salem is a very good cruiser, its a bit tanky and good guns, plus you have that radar man, witch is so useful, you just spawn in a match and just fu#k destroyers, they gonna alt+f4 and cry 😭😭 (nice video 🔥)
lol so true. I always have in the Salem and it is a very solid ship to get.
That was a very good match mate! You did very well, i can t really find some mistakes, but i can give you some advice for vermont line (kansas, minesota, vermont) they are so slow bro... theyre slow, very long reload speed i mean... dayum 40 sec reload speed... and they are not some brawlers like german bbs, they slow, they big, and they have so much reload speed, you have to play vermont line like youre playing a yami (yamato), slow, from behind, holding the line, and don t push, thats how i play vermont line... but again you did so good, the only mistake i saw was your teammates... like every match 😭😭 (wows teammates are something else dude 😭💀) W video 🔥
Thank you and I appreciate you advice. I guess I just thought I was not playing it aggressive enough but seems like that is just how to play it. Thanks
11:27 That's the only one (speaking of mistakes) that i saw. That Tsurugi, flat broadside...... Is a must!!! 😂. The rest you played very well.... The start was good, you saw your team mates with not intentions for push and you stayed holding the line. That was a nice desicion.
Thanks and yeah missed a very clear broadside as you pointed out. From my first games in this ship I have got better but still feel I am not getting quite enough when I play. Just feel I sit too far back but whenever I push I get obliterated because no one backs me up. Guess I just need to keep learning :)
@@Grumpy_Hobbit with that line that's the play style. Kansas, Minnesota and Vermont (the brick) are too slow and big, not to mension the heavy reload of the main guns, push at the start with no support is buy a fast ticket to port
@@adayhr Ah ok good to know then. I just need better teams lol
Vermont line is indeed a very good choice, I main the montana line, I have both montana and iowa, they are so good, especially with that dispersion module. Montana line is more faster and maneuvrable then the vermont one, the vermont line is more bulky, and have better guns, now the choice is yours what you gonna play... personally I like montana more then vermont, if you know how to angle a montana this ship is a beast. Nice video bdw 🔥
Thanks. Yeah Montana line is great and this line certainly feels different that is for sure. I am starting to get a hang of the guns now and need to start working on my positioning it it as I think I can get a bit more aggressive but that will come the more I play in it. Thanks for watching and your support :)
Lol that SL......😅
You did a superb game mate!
Thanks. I tried just can't win them all lol
Nice play with the dd, daring is a good dd but y'know when the team do nothing, its kinda imposible to win alone... gg wp, maybe we can play all 3 😃
Thanks. I like the Daring and seem to do ok in it most games. Can't win them all but would be nice to win the game you do well in :)
No fire protection. Missed a lot of shots. At least you had some brains to kite. However you missed that York way too many times. Missed alot of shots. Have to b more selective with 30 seconds per shot
Fire protection is a must, I just don't have the points yet...in fact I have no BB captains yet with points for it. Yeah I often just shoot to get chasers to turn and slow down knowing I am unlikely to take them out. My goal is to buy time to give my team time to win their fight and turn round. But I am getting better with my aiming on BB's and agree with taking time which is why I prefer Cruisers. Thanks for the advice.
@Grumpy_Hobbit good luck and btw u did get jumped by dispersion when shooting that York. Also fired your guns one atta time which is very smart. Keep on playing you'll get there
Cheat
When your double strike is so good they think you cheat lol
is this an old video ? or did you find the rare Unicorn Bollkalle online these days ? =)
Well I did go back through some old video recordings from the last couple of months to see it there was anything worth uploading so not sure exactly when this was from so it might be from a while ago :)
Where are you Kalle?🥹
Nice game mate, solid! A good example of how to play a CL
Was a nice game even with the CV's attention :)
Remember boiisss.... Insta DCP with one fire IS a big mistake🧐
Yep. 1 fire is a waste unless you are going to die from it. Fire damage can be repaired so unless you absolutely must, hold off repairs till you need it.
Hobart was a PoS
Couldn't agree more.
If I could've been a teammate there, I would've torped him. . .
I like your wows videos man, maybe we can play sometime, on a live or something keep it up 🔥
Thanks you so much. I have just started posting these clips and am not very good but am trying to get better. At the moment posting 1 clip a day is about all I can do but it is a start :) I play on the EU server most days and I have friends in a clan called BRWL so feel free to say hi if we are on at the same time. Thank you so much for spending your valuable time watching :)
@@Grumpy_Hobbit its okay bro, you don t have to thank me, I do like your content and what you do, your playstyle its very good. And yea, I play on EU as well, if you can start a live like tomorow? It would be perfect, we can play together if you want 😃 (at the moment im grinding the preussen line, stock FDG is just trash 😭😭)
@@dutusmg1240 I have actually started doing a live stream on Sundays at 4pm London time so perhaps you can join then.
Fun game!!! 😅😂😂😂
Why hold bombs tho even after he DCP?
Not sure I understand your question. Can you point me to the point of the clip you are talking about? Also what does DCP mean?
Liepe playing t7!!!!! And the Collinwood!!!!😱
lol yeah. We started the battle having a chat about wtf the Collingwood was so safe to say first game for him or at least no reent games.
7:37 How to call someone an idiot without actually typing "idiot", in English (US) -- got some options for ya chief: 1. You're not all there, are ya... (more polite) 2. Did your parents have any children that lived? (pretty rude) 3. (you say) "Do you have radar?" (he says) "Need one?" (you say) "Nah, just taking a poll" (very sarcastic, and would usually be followed immediately with a "Dumb@$$...") 4. Pull your head out... (direct) 5. Did you have an IQ when you woke up this morning? (more passively aggressive) Gave you a bit from several different decades, one of those would work without being overly toxic (mildly, but not overly) Honorable mention, from a popular movie, and quite rude: "I think the best part of you ran down your mama's @$$ and became a brown stain on the mattress."
Thanks for the suggestions. If I get a chance I will try my best to use one of them sometime :)
The delight and the evil laugh from Redboi when someone turns to their broadside.😅🤣😂
If we are honest, we all feel that way :)
Almost forgot this game😅...... Was a good one🧐
Whew great game to watch. Remember I told you I was a new player about a month ago. So don't get angry if my Q sounds stupid, please. My task is to get 1 achievement in an English or German ship. How do you get achievements. Because I've spotted, I've set many ships on fire. up to 3 per game and I've flooded, and I've capped. But No achievement given in about 30 games so far. Last task out of many tasks for something to do with the Hood. Please help. Thanks
Achievements have certain requirements. So for example to get the 'Arsonist' achievement you need to do the following: - Set an enemy ship on fire and destroy her. The damage caused by fire must amount to at least 40% of the destroyed ship's base HP. Can be obtained multiple times per battle. Other are simple like first blood where you just have to sink the first ship. This is a link for the full list: - wiki.wargaming.net/en/Ship:Achievements Knowing which ships are good for which achievements is key. A DD is good for getting first blood as you usually engage quicker than other ships. Rapid fire with long range guns is good for Arsonist if you can get a ship to chase you so America cruisers are good for that. Are you trying for a particular achievement because perhaps I can give specific advise there.
The task requires any achievement. Although it must be done in a UK or German ship. I have the (V) Agincourt Battleship . Captain lv 11 VI Undine submarine Captain lv2, and the VI Nuremberg Captain lv4 cruiser. Im currently just started my first game in ranked. Did well. Managed to spot cap and destroy battleship with tops and main guns in Nuremberg. Died soon after. Ranked 9. Whatever that means. In Bronze
Most of the time 43 feels so different isnt as much because of the ship but more so the commander spec because they guns, while slightly different, are the same ballistics. Most build the 43 for secondaries and not main guns which is a palpable difference.
That makes a lot of sense. I don't have both so cannot say but those I know with both ships report a difference and you night just have hit the nail on the head. Many thanks
Masters at work. My internet dropped out once. I got reported for bad sportsmanship. Have a great day.
Yeah I get reported all the time for anything from having a good game to being unable to prevent another player from dying too quickly to it being the weekend. It doesn't really matter. Play to have fun and as long as you are not trying to spoil other peoples time or are unwilling to learn just ignore it.
Its's always just one shell that hurts.😊
And it is always that shell that follows you no matter how you try to dodge lol. There are the shells that go where the enemy aims and the shell that RNG has decided is going to hit you no matter what.
I was like, Where the fk did they all go. Mind you those to idiots that ran into the torps were going to be easy meat. Especially the idiot that ran into you. It wasnt till redboi said aah, can you tell me and then im confused, was when I looked up and saw only 2. Saved by the bell as they say. I use the rahmat as well. Its the one I got my first kills on. Very funny this time. well you just stay in the smoke. Im gonna run away. I run too but its funny the way you said it. Ill spot ,you stay in the smoke. But i used the smoke for you. Oh well you spot and ill shoot. 😅🤣😂
Was a fun game despite getting to the end of the game and seeing the rest of the team are dead. :) At least it was a win.
People don't get that THIS map is another play style, as you said. Push agressive in a BB here mean a fast ticket to port
Yeah it is a rare map that people have no clue how to play it I expect.
Ships scatter everywhere instead of forming a battle line. So much for playing warships lol
This was great to watch. I enjoy the talking between you and Redboi. Funny at times. Thanks for the reply. I used p to turn of aa guns like you said and did well. I took 3 out in my DD a got spotted in my last game. I do watch many other youtubers as well. I already watch the guys you mentioned, but thanks anyway. I love watching some of the ones where they don't go to plan, and they go from calm to swearing at the enemy ship for being unpredictable. I'm starting to maneuver more and even push at times. it feels good to not feel useless. I've had a thanks and a good job for my spotting. Proud moments.
Great to hear and sounds like you are improving all the time which is great. As with most things practice makes you better but a willingness to learn is often overlooked so keep at it and you will have more and more success.
A game to forget for me😅😂😂😂
You can't be amazing in every game you play ;)
Concealment. I never look at it, but now I understand. Listening to you and Redboi was very helpful. Like I said, Im very new to this game. It looks easy watching both of you but it isnt for me at the moment. Staying alive is hard in a dd when you have to go in first. I've just started using matsuki as my first dd outside of level 1 and 11. The matsuki. Trying to spot and not be spotted or stay alive and your teammates like said can make a difference. Ive been in a battleship many times where both my dd and cv have died within 2 mins and im fkd. Now I'm weary of my own teammates. i went back to co op but the bots are usually on a suicide mission and they all drift towards me and all guns are firing on the humans. in random I try to use Islands and stay facing towards my enemy and stay back but i get hammered chased and surrounded. There are many like me that aren't up to grade yet and still learning but experienced players or even a clan can smell a new boy and quickly go after me. However, your CZcams is making me understand the mechanics and all sorts of things to do and look out and position. I don't even know how to turn off my AA on the matsuki for better concealment. Im now very good in an Aircraft carrier and am getting good at using it for spotting which makes me feel proud when i get acknowledged for it. Submarine sucks. I use Rahmat for cv and kongo and wuhjam and arhjencourt {sorry about the spelling, probably butchered the names} doing well in those. I feel my journey is getting there. There's a lot to think about and 1 mistake like staying to far back to do any good or going in and dying. looking at map all the time while engaging. Thats actually what I love about this game. 2 clans have asked me to join them I declined them because i thought i might weaken their clan. Bad call because I think the experience of being in a clan may help me and at least i know i can trust them too. Sorry about rambling on. Great game. I prefer too hear you talking and experience your thoughts and I'm really enjoying Redboi's thoughts as well. The thought process between you guys is engaging.
Honestly made my day so thank you for your comments. I am doing this for a bit of fun so knowing that you and others like you might pick up something useful to help you enjoy the game more is priceless. Co-ops are good for aiming practice, especially learning to shoot for citadel hits and I still do them from time to time, especially with new ship lines but the AI is not the smartest and does straight-line a lot. Can I suggest, if you have not already done so, look for Trenlass, Flambass and The Mighty Jingles who I still watch daily to learn how to play better. As for DD's it is a hard class to play because you are expected to do so much. You must cap, spot and kill the enemy while avoiding the CV, subs, , DD's and radar while the BB's with 6 times your health are sitting back complaining that their pant got scratched :) So my advice is let the enemy DD's push into the caps and learn on maps where enemy DD's are likely to do so. Run away without shooting because a dead DD cannot keep spotting. Think about playing a DD like clearing a path of mines so the big guns can feel happy to push up a bit closer to the fight. And lastly, on a standard keyboard layout P turns off your AA :) Thanks so much for taking the time to post and encourage me to keep uploading.
@@Grumpy_Hobbit PQ also has got some good guides for positioning and aiming
That guy saying why? Hahahaha well.... Smoke can kill people.... But don't get me wrong, were really nice torps mate.
Yeah even though I was trying to kill them both I still admit I got lucky lol
@@Grumpy_Hobbit Lucky or the expirience.... Know where torp inside the smoke....
Nice torps ;)
Many thanks :)
I wonder what server you play on because I have the exact same ingame name as you lol. I am GrumpyHobbit on NA server. Nice to meet a fellow grumpy hobbit!! I assumer from the accents on stream that you all are from the EU?
Haha I have received a few comments from people who thought I was you and telling me how good I was playing a previous night. I play on the EU server so good to find I have relatives over the pond :)
Close game. Score was a bit weird, but great to watch that tactics used by both sides.
It was one of those games that never seemed to be going that well till you look up and see you are about to win. I think you can hear the surprise in my voice when Redboi gets his Kraken.
Yes I did😅😂
I had 2 sleepers on my team. Lost that game. Wisconsin looks good.
Yeah another ship that seems worth investing into. As for the sleepers, far too many and usually means a loss as you confirm.
That Game was sooo funny😂😂😂
Not much action but the chat made the game worth it lol
Superb torps mate, solid game so far🫡
Thanks. It was one of those games where everything just seemed to go my way.
That was a good one😊
Sure was lol
Really good game in the Neptune. That Zeitan needed a compliment though. It's a good ship just very squishy.
Yeah whatever he did to get that score was good. Not sure how it really works as he didn't get any achievements but I did give a compliment after the game ended if I remember right.
I've just started playing random games. I've been in co op battles for a while. Im enjoying it though. This helps.
This is great! People rush into randoms far too early so the fact you are using co-op to learn is already a step up. It is a great way to learn about landing citadels and positioning and timing of long shots. Thanks for watching :)
This probably farms more money than the entire shire does in 1420
Ratatatatattataatattatatat
Poor guy😅
Poor indeed lol
Kastrull told me about this game yesterday i think.... he felt in love with this ship😂
Yeah I got that impression also. Seems strong and of course SAP to replace AP/
This is a nasty DD to play against... Not a good design by WG... And little skill factor...
Any ship with SAP is a DD killer to be honest. Get spotted and you are toast unless you can hide quick enough. I have been 1 shot a few times by the Venezia and straight back to port lol.
@@Grumpy_Hobbit Yup me too...
Sadly you had there a war correspondent (is my way to call them). They are there as mere expectators, to record what happened and tell the world😅😂
lol make love not war
Nice game mate, and also you did not reciebe any damage😱
lol I just had to check and you are right, zero damage :)
