Know your reload times for your battleships. This especially comes in handy when deciding to full send, whether you are surrounded and need to fight multiple fronts, or when you're so close your secondaries are firing. If you have a 30 second reload, you might wanna think about not firing a full salvo and alternate your guns instead.
Aside from dealing spike damage,a BB's role is to draw incoming fire away from your more vulnerable teammates. Some battleships are better at this than others, but even the squishiest BB has better survivability than the toughest cruiser, with a few exceptions.
Heh, Kronshtadt goes BRRRRRRRR
It is excellent for denying the opposing team access to a particular area
@@موسى_7 It depends on the opposing teams' ships. A BB off by iself is nothing but a target for a DD or CV
Dude, I don't normally play battleships, but I loved your video on stealth battleships (I'm a DD main) and I use it as my favorite troll ship.
Love your videos and the tips and tactics you share.
Rate Of Fire. Vital. If nothing else, you are generally better off making 2-3 imperfect shots rather than waiting the same time for that "perfect" shot (which may or may not come, anyhow). The primary goal is inflicting enough damage to lead to a kill (by you OR the team).
Somewhere in there, I would also add, "Don't Make It Too Easy For The Other Side'. Angling is a very big part of that, certainly, but also don't be predictable. When detected, jink around so that you are harder to hit. PropMod is something I fit to pretty much all my BBs, and use - alter speed constantly and even hit the brakes now and then, and never ever just sail in straight lines. Habitually zigzagging just a little bit can make all the difference for basically any attack coming your way.
I like BBs. its my main squeeze.
Taking the right shots is big.
Also getting the reds to pay attention to you can free up the cruisers and destroyers to make plays. ( tanking damage)
Angelo Iachino is a very helpful inspiration.
Cunningham is a better inspiration. Iachino gives no bonus for cv. Had plenty of games W/3DD,5BB, and a CV. or having only 1 cruiser in the game. I do use Iachino on my British BB.
What is a BB ?

Whenever I played the game I always thought the point was to chip away at the other battleships because I just assumed they were supposed to be the strongest ships, and if you I wasn’t targeting them I was playing wrong. I’d get nervous picking it because I didn’t want to let the team down, but I never thought of playing the ways you recommend, this has been really helpful
This was very useful, I suck with Battleships, I’m taking a break from Carriers and Cruisers and moving to this, thank you again!
Definitely trying to get better. Your videos have helped a lot.
Hello!, I wanted to say thankyou. Im a new player to the game on PS4 looking forward to get better at it.
I've been looking at some tips and tutorial videos and I'm so glad to have seen yours because it does feels like you want to help people to enjoy the game and learn new skills.
Welcome aboard. Check through the beginners playlist on my channel to get a nice jump start on the game
I hated BBs when I first started playing. Watching a video where you talked through the roles of the BB and how to perform them made me a reasonable player. This video reminds me of that. GGs
thank you for being clear and direct. truley
Impressive video Tbull. I am still waiting for Lion’s return though I missed her out.
I admire you effort to improve the player base. Most will never see it.
I miss your vids Tbull, you have excellent tutorials and have helped my game play. Hope you are doing well, God bless.
Great video as always
How can you ou tell if it’s a radar cruiser by the mini map? And would you try using HE on tiers 3 and lower?
I would recommend that battleships stay out of the caps unless its a sure thing. Don't get spotted!!!!
Good stuff my friend have a great night 🙋👻
Ah the old win rate calculus, I will admit I could do better as mine hovers around 48%, but then again I play more aggressively and that comes with more risk.
Agree positioning is very difficult, a lot of variables come into play.
At the point where you spotted the CV Why did all of a sudden DID he drop spot when he was that close they got a fix that bs
I'm glad I have Super Brawl Disorder.
So you're not suppose to go to the farthest corner of the map away from the red team and lob shots at max range in 5 minute increments in hopes to hit something?
I feel like my biggest weakness in battleships is positioning, I try to find the right spot to be close enough to support my teammates but not close enough that I've got multiple golden showers and a DD to deal with but it always seems like I'm way too far forwards or borderline on the moon. Any suggestions? The really weird thing is I'm pretty good at BBs at tier V but my VI/VII premiums I'm usually not great in. Also glad to hear my winrate is well above average!
Positioning is probably the single most difficult thing to learn in this game. You have to find the right blend of hanging back to protect yourself from being burned to the ground, and being aggressive enough to support your teammates. Part of what makes it so difficult is that that blend is different for every ship and every match. One of the things I've learned is that often in a battleship, the trick is to force your opponents into making the first mistake - turning broadside, or surrendering a cap, etc. If you trade shots and bow tank with one guy for 5 minutes of the game, but then he's finally forced into moving because your DD has finished taking out the enemy DD and can now send torpedos into the enemy BB, that's not necessarily a loss in terms of strategy. You've effectively traded your HP for the chance for your DD to do his job, and finally forced the enemy into making a fatal mistake. Yes, you might only have a third of your health left, but if it gives your team the win it's absolutely worth it.
Paying attention to how your team deploys in the first two or so minutes of the game is super critical for positioning, and initial positioning can often win or lose the game by itself. Stay close enough to your teammates that you can cover them, make sure you're not blocking yourself from shooting by going around a huge island that will take 5 minutes to get around, and for the love of God don't start the match by hitting reverse lmao.
When I position in a battleship I’m looking for an island to cover one flank from torps or shots, then I push out a little from that island to start shooting targets of opportunity. If it’s a one v one or two v one I will sustain and tank and fire back. Once my damage con and first repair party are used I might consider falling back if my island will prevent me from being spotted while my cooldowns are up, then coming back out once they are close to being off cooldown to tank more. Sometimes you end up being the first point of contact in an enemy push. If I can tell I can’t disengage I will turtle into my cover and focus on surviving as long as possible to slow the push while praying match making has given me a team that can read minimaps and use the time I’m buying to make the correct play in their side. Sometimes in a battleship there is nothing you can do. Your team either abandons you or refuses to play the objective. But I think battleship is a good way to learn world of warships. While your guns are reloading, it gives you time to look at mini map, watching your opponents and teammates. From your battleship, what do you wish your cruisers were doing? Well next time you play cruiser, be a bro to your battleship. Same for dd, you will realize what you wish they would do (spot and guard against other dds)
good to see you calling out the dogshit play by BBs, so much focus is on DDs play on CZcams, but as a DD main i get paired with BB melons who start the match by reversing, leading to a tough carry.
they usually pair reversing with "i need intelligence data" constantly on repeat, despite all the red ships being visible on the map but out of range or behind islands because they cant move their BB into a relevant position...
I apologize for sounding like a dumb newbie. Just got a Tier V premium cruiser from a crate its italian and i have a question it is upgraded from HE to SAP my question is for your italian commanders skills do thier HE skills cover over to SAP I've tried looking it up but maybe im searching wrong im feeling like it doesn't?
Nope, the HE skills will not affect SAP performance
@@TbullGaming thank you very much sir much appreciated i felt like that was the case but wasn't sure and figured i'd check. thanks agian
Im best at DD after it’s cruiser and then BB i am TERRIBLE with battleships im a bit discourage (Japanese dd aka torpedoes boat)
A big thing to overcome is that the game literally gives you terrible advice, a common tip on the map loading screen says “Operate in formations, a lone ship is an easy target”.
This actively discourages the more useful strategy of spreading out to achieve right angles. It’s one of the reasons why the black hole happens so much.
It's interesting, grouping together is important in CV games, I learned the hard way in the Champagne how bad the AA was. That doesn't mean you need to be 1km apart though, 5km gives you mutual AA and the possibility of different angles on ships.
Plus, the proximity conditions to activate legendary skills incentivitizes poor positioning.
My favorite tip....destroyers are best launching surprise attacks from behind other ships....or something to that effect. No! Destroyers are best spotting and contesting caps/killing enemy dds.
@@Skiiiiiifreeeeeee oh god this one kills me when I see it. I just cannot fathom who wrote these things and why they are still in the game
@@Skiiiiiifreeeeeee I actually thought about mentioning that myself! The game also doesn't explain anything about game mechanics or even basic tips. All we have is the overview page which is questionable at best.
I had a few flukey games, yesterday was a 5 kill game with over 150k damage and i won my side of the map, lost it on points tho, woulda needed 7 kills to win it :P
TLDR: Punish the perpendicular.
Aquatic Geometry Simulator instead of WoWSL
Just like you cam block players from other networks we should be able to block fence sitter BB's XD
64 percent only bbs main here
I would almost say that point 5 should be the first one. Little else contributes so much to bad game play.
I disagree with the paper, rock, scissors aspect of the game. DD are not there to counter BB. They are to take caps and counter enemy DD, BB need to move forward to support the DD by preventing the enemy cruisers from moving up to support their DD.
I agree, I'm just talking about what is designed to most efficiently kill a given class
@@TbullGaming "Yo..BB's, why da fook are you reversing?"...BB's: "Da torps man, da torps!" From 12 km away...
"
@@TbullGaming In theory that my be true, but in practice not so much. For the dd to (efficiently) kill a bb is the torp rush. And how many times have you seen players mess that up. Anything else they need to get lucky. Due to the bb torp protection I would say on avg. hitting a torp is a little better than hitting a cit from a bb. Not counting the flooding.
Not enough people watch your videos because battleships that are afraid to get scratched is epidemic.
Step 1: Get Mom's credit card
Step 2: Buy premium ships
Step 3: Buy Cartoon commanders
Step 4: Pay to upgrade said Loony Toons commanders
Step 5: Have teammates ruin the game by not knowing the most basic...
