Ive enjoyed the hood since its release and i agree she is very underrated! Between her and her bigger brother Monarch I think folks really just dont give them a chance and miss out on some solid fun!
@@SpartanElite43 tier 6 is probably my most played tier but I mainly play My fav ship Scharnhorst(love this ship soooo much) and I also play Carolina alot to
Ayee the T6 Vanguard. Short fuse AP does wonders against cruisers and light armor sections of BBs. She also has some of the best pen angles in the game for BBs too if I recall. A speed build is pretty fun too. Got mine at 37 knots.
Hood is about as much fun you can have in a battleship. You can play her straight and she does very well. Or you can go full 36kts speed build, which is just hilarious!
I don't play Legends, I'm just here to say that Hood is underrated over here in Classic too. A lot of people complained about her short fuse timers which reduced her performance against more heavily armoured foes. These days she has normal fuse timers so don't expect some crazy full pen damage against destroyers, but the lightweight shells lead to some significant penetration drop-off at longer ranges, which means you can expect to arm and detonate inside the citadel of most cruisers, or at least avoid overpenetrations.
In Legends, dd and most cruisers seldom take full pen damage from battleahips unless conditions are absolutely perfect and RNG allows it. It's gotten so bad that light cruisers firing AP do much more reliable damage than battleships to careless broadside cruisers with the possible exception of at extreme range - in other words, according to WG, Omaha's 6in guns firing AP do more damage than New York firing 14in AP because "balance" I guess.
@@177SCmaro Yeah, as if sluggish turret traverse and long ass reload weren't "balanced" enough. Does anybody actually play New York in Legends anyway? It's basically unplayable in Classic these days.
@@dylanwight5764 I do sometimes, but I like a challange, even an unfair/unbalanced one. It's why I play battleships. 😅 As they say, you get stronger swimming against the current then with it.
I love my Hood :) my first premium!!! And I have the AL Commander too, she was one of my first SSR shipgirls in game, and with her special equipment, is still quite useful and good to this day!!!
Ah, my first waifu in Azur Lane. Okay go easy on me in the replies please. Yea I’m a weeb, fight me. I got Hood a while ago, when I just wanted a tier 6 premium. Honestly Nelson doesn’t even appeal to me, just because it’s broken doesn’t mean it’s the funnest thing ever. To me it was a decision between Hood, and Duke of York. I run an accuracy build with Cunningham, or at least I do until Azur Lane Hood comes back, but I use my inspirations for extra speed. I got it up to ~35 knots and hot damn it’s fun. Speed really helps you stay in the fight when your team needs it.
The Nelson is my first premium ship and it is broken. You can have trash shots and still do 10K damage. She destroyed my previous damage record which was 142K. And I got 190K with Kraken Unleashed. I really didn't want to get the Hood because it just kinda looked like a Vanguard.
T'would be much obliged if you were to do a video on old Dunkerque, dear chap. Got it out of a Big Crate a year back and it is my most played ship somehow. I guess it was from grinding credit for Bismarck and Edinburgh.
Is it worthwhile to switch Cunningham as an inspiration with the new Italian accuracy BB guy that especially improves shell grouping against cruisers? Hood, with its short fuse AP and improved angles seems like one of the better candidates I just don't know if it's enough to notice.
The ship being behind a paywall dosn't help her exposure much. I'd like to get Hood but I'm not willing to blow like 40 or 50 bucks and, apparently, much of the community agrees since I can count on one had the number of times Hood has been in my match.
Awesome video! you should do a video on Charles Martel, with this update she got MBRB and from what Ive heard its very strong. Goodluck and thanks for the enjoyable content :).
Yes finally my favourite ship with my favourite CZcamsr playing it Maybe next strasbourg or odin please because i want to buy one of them but don’t know which one
It's funny I feel like everytime hood and Bismarck are in a match together they just naturally start firing at each other over anyone else... maybe just me tho.
As a Bismarck player, I do start firing on Hood the moment she comes into range. And I swear to god, I’m going to loose my shit (in a good way) if I ever quote Lindemann, Bismarck’s Captain, and I Devstruct/detonate a Hood (“I’m not letting my ship getting shot up from under my arse. OPEN FIRE!” Is what Lindemann said after Lutgen stayed frozen in indecision after having been asked 3 TIMES by the artillery officer if they had permission to open fire)
Ok I hope you see this PG, because this is some next level coincidence weirdness here. I’d been thinking about getting Hood since it was added to Legends but never got around to it until last week. Still having not watched this video, I notice that the game Control is for sale, so I pick it up having considered buying it for a while, and I’ve been playing it for a few days. So now I’m watching this video that’s not only about Hood, but also has a Control reference at the very start, and on top of all that, I was currently playing Control as I started watching this video. WEIRD. 😂😂

Only problem for me is that Hood is genuinely underrated, the Monarch is just really subpar
I have hood but I never play it because ever time I take it to a battle ever BB on the enemy team has 406s

I adore this ship. Favourite in the game. Maybe a video on the monarch? It's also very underrated.
pretty please ??
It’s the sweet sweet devstikes
Monarch is my favorite Tier 7. It is beast like at Firestarting and bowtanking.
The short fuse AP on this thing is amazing. My most played ship
Love the fact you use a cod 3 music to introduce hood. Very classy
That brought back so many memories hearing it after all these years.
fun fact: Hood is the only ship in legends that has rockets as AA 🙂
That's right like those mounted on the turrets! One of the first rocket AA systems ever developed!
Hood is such a fun ship, high speed and accurate guns. I have had many games were I rush a flank and just slap ships left and right

Not just some of the best pen angles, she's tied with PoW and Bismarck for the best on BBs, they all have the same pen angles as USN CAs.

My 2 favorite Tier VI BBs N. Carolina and Hood. Love to see vid on NC. Great Vid
Can we get a video on Charles Martel , it’s definitely one of the most underrated Tier seven cruisers
And with reload boosters it's a monster.
@@TheOriginalHairyDave haha yeah managed to take out a khaba really quickly with the reload booster
It would be really nice to see some Italian destroyer gameplay because they are beyond rare to find
the mighty hood go kaboom
Nice man love your videos Pg

Be wary of Bismarck's, we don't want history to repeat
I'll shall rewrite history
happy hood noises
the music was pretty btw
Bold statement. This lady is not for turning
Yes! Thank you PG, u legend. X
I have been waiting for this vid for 2 years now lmao
When you play as Hood but the enemy team has a Bismarck:
👁👄👁
As a Hood Enjoying I can relate
Can you do izumo next ?
I like the Hood to I went for a speed build with Azur lane Hood as the commander
Same
Could you do the tier 6 🇮🇹 bb?
I’ll sell my soul to you if you do.
what would you sell me if i did the tier 5 🇮🇹 bb instead
@@pgrapidz my warspite.
You are the only CZcamsr to watch while eating
Could you make a video on the Atlanta? I just bought it and its my favorite ship!
This is such an underrated gamer that definitely makes the best videos he deserves more subs and likes 👍
last sound video, make my day better 🤣

Hey pg the hood is great until Bismarck shows up and detonates it
where is the funny here
I love the call of duty 3 soundtrack in the background
Love playing the HMS HOOD
This is my favorite ship ever, awesome vid
How about a video on the London?!?
I wish I’d bought it when it was on sale a few months back
Can you make a video with the T7 Cruiser Siegfried?

You need to revisit Genova with SAP. Low tier SAP on big guns against soft targets... Not that's seal clubbing
Genova is a good ship, but you really want to do some spicy Italian seal-clubbing then look no further than the Giulio Cesare.

No one:
Absolutely nobody:

I second this

hood is indeed underrated and hilariously tanky
Request for a video? Le Terrible. I really want to know how it performs at the tier.
What a good video, please let the next one be from pobeda
When I first had Hood I hated her, then I figured out nuking cruisers is her specialty and now she's excellent.
Every time I’m in a Bismarck and I come up against a hood, I pray for a detonation on it. For old times lol
Can you please do a video on uss West Virginia
Please, love your content
Can we get one on "the thing"
Can you make a video about the v. Veneto
Now that Weimar is at T7, could we have a München game?

Great vid as always could i make a request how about Poltava it's the odd ball ship I still kinda enjoy

Can you please make a video on the graf spee. I think it's a very good ship and deserves to give it a try
Such class
Very well done o7
Will we have a Clip on Duke Of York? Or King George V?
I'd still wreck it with my New Mexico. Just like when Bismarck did the same!
Can we possibly see a video on Duke Of York?
Damn it's criminal to be this early
Could you do one on richelieu i want to see what its like before I get it
Pwetty pwease?
Can you do the Duke of York next so there goes another T6 British bb not very used ?
Can we agree that we only get T6 British ships because the King George exists.
Hood vs Bismarck in Wows Lgends ?
Prinz Eugen vs (maybe) Prince of Wales ?
The best feeling is destroying Hood when playing Bismarck
Bro you might of killed me once 💀
Hey PG whats the name of that tune you have playing at the end of your videos now? Its a killer beat dude would love to have it man 😁👍
Come carry on your Best of British with the Albermale or maybe 🤔 the Minotaur!
Meanwhile on PC, Hood has DFAA, and used to have cancer AA, esp the short-range AA...
Can we get a video on Duke of York?
