Don't Sleep 😴 on Shimanto in World of Warships Legends

[@DerkaGames]

Who you Got...Suzuya or Shimanto?

[@503rd]

None I suck at getting these ships

[@TheSwedishKnight]

Both and love them

[@TrenFrost]

I’ve had much more consistent fun and damage in Shimanto than in Suzuya. My win percentage isn’t much better, but I’m doing more each match with it. Just miss the credit earning boost.

[@roythedon4413]

suzumanto

[@Oddemainn]

GG! That was me in the Maerker, and you read me like an open book 😆 It was my very first match in the Maerker, we were loosing, and I wanted to try the AP on the broadside Shimanto😝 Your comments were spot on 👌

[@DerkaGames]

Thing is, you honestly prolly did the right thing, cause Maerker AP is savage! Could've smoked me. Ggs ❤️🙏

[@BigBadBeauD]

I love the Suzuya. I’ve had no luck getting any of these ships from the crates, but I’m looking forward to grinding my way up. Great video, thanks man.

[@DerkaGames]

Ohh no, have been there. Well hopefully the grind isn't too bad

[@captainchill903]

After 6 months of playing i hit the jackpot, i got all the new ijn cruisers except for tier 8 in crates lol. Shimanto is a little slower then the mogami, (i dont have suzuya), but the torpedo angles and fast rotating guns make up for that. I got my first kraken in the shimanto last week, so i might be biased when i say its a damn good cruiser

[@DerkaGames]

Nice!

[@3_D-nz4nl5xh7w]

Those torp angles and 360 turrets seem like they could be lots of fun. Thanks for the vid my man. Gg🍻

[@DerkaGames]

Interesting for sure! I'm enjoying Shimanto quite a LOT

[@joshcline9728]

This ship class never existed. The Omono is the last “kinda” real ship on the tech tree. She was supposed to be a submarine flotilla leader. This ship on the other hand is fake. There may be a drawing somewhere on a napkin but besides that she isn’t real. Also these triple gun turrets never existed.

[@cydewazeWaS]

Shimanto has been one of my faves since it came out. So much fun to play.

[@landshark_8024]

3:01 Fire ze squiggly aqua missiles! Love those torp angles.

[@DerkaGames]

They're really cool looking lol

[@RepThomasBeach]

Inspiring. Looking forward to playing her when I log on

[@DerkaGames]

Happy hunting representative

[@wecanjump7512]

you're not the only one, Derka. Epicenter on this map was awesome, especially in a DD

[@DerkaGames]

See I liked it!

[@lillpete64]

At the moment my favorite ship

[@DerkaGames]

Lots of fun!

[@aliengoa0]

I never expected to like IJN cruisers

[@DerkaGames]

😈

[@nater9447]

Thanks for your thoughts on this ship. Looks fun but I can't seem to get lucky with crates. Regarding cruiser builds, I've found that for some ships work with a hybrid build, prop mod in slot 2, rudder mod in slot 3. Sometimes you just NEED to be able to slow down quick and speed up just as quick and the faster rudder means that I have more options when I inevitably get spotted. Honestly, full concealment only works if you know your team will help keep the reds at bay. If you're forced to run, all bets are off if you open fire while getting out of there

[@DerkaGames]

I suppose I like the stealth for the reason I showed in this match, nice to be able to sneak into a cap and not be a hero lol

[@dimitrios936]

Thank you very much for your knowledge. You had a very good fight

[@DerkaGames]

Thank you 🙏

[@aurorazxgaming5842]

A full AA build, is hilarious in this. I took 31 planes in my best match, and a kraken to boot 😂 however most of the time I’m full AA minus the fourth AA slot unless I’m in a division with a buddy taking a carrier. 7.6-7.9km on the AA is funny 😂

[@rwstrickland]

I think the reload needs a huge buff but other than that It is great. (Maybe a better turning circle and rudder shift time though).

[@DerkaGames]

idk, if this thing had a fast reload the 1/5 pen might make it pretty overpowered....(AL Chapayev comes to mind)

[@rwstrickland]

I guess you are right

[@justinzacharias32]

I HATE CAPTURE THE BASE SOOO MUCH

[@DerkaGames]

yesss preach

[@mattsmith5421]

I'd play more if that was removed. Domination makes more people compete.

[@vaughnedwards1724]

I played the tier 5 last night and carried, I'm not really a cruiser guy. These ships are okay. I'm also mostly FTP,. Mikawa 15 '2; I was surprised..

[@DerkaGames]

So the T6 one is saucy? Nice

[@cxrive]

I have Omono, and it’s amazing, except that it explodes, looking forward to getting Shimanto!

[@DerkaGames]

😆😆😆

[@stickmastercaleb3251]

I'm using Haguro with Louis du fournet/Andre Roux. Great setup for Hvy HE damage and penetration.

[@DerkaGames]

Insane HE pen!

[@stickmastercaleb3251]

@@DerkaGames Quite Indeed! HE salvos are like 8-10k on Battleships. 0_o

[@NauticalSauces]

Atlanta set his controller down and accepted his fate lol

[@DerkaGames]

And I didn't get the kill 🤦‍♂️

[@denzan27]

I really like this line a loot im now on shimanto

[@DerkaGames]

She's pretty fun!

[@captainphilips5469]

The AA is a huge improvement over Suzuya. The citadel also seems lower, there is also a secondary deck of 27mm present.

[@DerkaGames]

Yeah massive improvement over Suzuya's scant DPS of like -12 😆 I must have got distracted and not talked about the AA

[@derickevans3025]

How about you do a demo \presentation on lower tier ships starting from tier 6 upwards..... With a diff in that you put in modules and upgrades available on that tier ... Most guys running youtube channels put in high priced admirals and more in witch of cours is not available on that tier.. Many of the players have to do it the hard way like graining their way up ..Thank you enjoyed the shimanto

[@DerkaGames]

All commanders are available at every tier =) Usually I don't make low tier videos because the views would not be worth my time invested. Thanks

[@Bruh-bs6do]

re 3:30ish only the Agano got built and she wasn't an AA cruiser, my understanding is these were mostly hypothetical designs.

[@DerkaGames]

👍

[@Zapranoth-lf8nt]

Yeah, Suzuya in the game represents the Mogamis as-built, when the Japanese were still pretending to comply with the Treaties…they were built with triple 155mm turrets, and a year or two in, swapped those for the twin 203s. So shimanto was never built.

[@typeoddnamehere2362]

Also, the 150s that Shimanto and Takahashi uses are apparently Imperial Japanese Army designs. Oh dear

[@jeremiasdrumond7457]

These ships are like Omaha in open water; hair raising! 😰

[@DerkaGames]

Haha yes scary 😀

[@Gazpachio_11]

💪💪

[@DerkaGames]

=)

[@OppstOomAnY]

The omono oh my is something 😮

[@DerkaGames]

I keep hearing that!

[@camerondawnpeterson5100]

I did the 20% traverse speed on shamonto and OMG those cannons swing they can go from Port to starboard in like 2 seconds only issue Is that the guns get knocked out very easily where is the tier 6 Omano cannons and torps I have yet to experience them getting knocked out yet.

[@DerkaGames]

Lol meme build

[@LastRookie]

I'm going to just say it: I like CtB for thereason that it allowed a new player like myself to get a solo warrior medal before I had even gotten to 1k battles.

[@DerkaGames]

Haha ctb sux

[@seizokobayashi7309]

that torpedo is like on HMS Battlecruiser torpedo? wire guided.?

[@DerkaGames]

Yeah like Brit Battlecruisers

[@popcorn_wut]

I can't wait for Yodo, Zao and Yodo are the only things i desire in this game

[@DerkaGames]

We better get Hindenburg before we get Yodo...

[@popcorn_wut]

@@DerkaGames sorry, no such thing as Hindenburg exists in the WoWsL Dev teams vocabulary

[@DerkaGames]

frfr

[@wastelander89]

I rather play suzuya anytime over Shimanto the one thing i like is the fast turrets because usually Japanese ships have slow turrets. The reload is just brutal for 155s. The reload feels like im play Japanese heavy cruisers and at that point id rather play mogami or suzuya. Im still happy they brought new ships into the game for variety

[@stotgunvsface5092]

Plus the other benefit of suzuya. The absurd credit generation of t7 light cruisers. Plymouth, Mainz and suzuya just print credits.

[@DerkaGames]

True premiums print credits

[@hamakaze1364]

*sad atago noises* That being said, I prefer playing her over mogami, and I'm sure this thing as well. It does look goofy, got some interesting gimmicks Turning circle looks like that of the atago also. Though atagos dpm is nowhere near the likes, this thing atago is consistent, and that's why I love her

[@DerkaGames]

Poor Atago =(

[@x.XKillSwitchX.x]

Idk why but Xbox usually has this weird over saturated hue or sum looks super word compared to PS5 (example of PS video on my channel)

[@rwstrickland]

I love this ship

[@DerkaGames]

fun boat!

[@dvos7215]

I like the idea that they are more torpedo focused, but the torps miss the speed unfortunately

[@DerkaGames]

Slow for sure, reaction time suffers =(

[@xtrashxxpandax3108]

Space fishy as inspiration for the win

[@Zapranoth-lf8nt]

At long range, the gap between torps is pretty wide, too…easy to dodge

[@ijendr0995]

You are definitely the only one that misses Epicenter on Tears of the Desert lol

[@DerkaGames]

😂

[@michaelmayes7757]

So if you had to choose between the Suzuya or this, what would you choose.

[@DerkaGames]

For now, shimanto cause it's new and gimmicky. If I wanted to put up big damage, Suzuya

[@mojo51]

1/5 pen? I must have missed that in the patch notes. Is that just for Shimanto or the whole line?

[@DerkaGames]

Seriously doubt T6s or lower need 1/5th pen but haven't tested myself. Shimanto 110% and I would assume T8 and Yodo will get it as well

[@otf7466]

Tiers of the desert epicenter was good. Islands of ice epicenter sucks

[@DerkaGames]

Yesss

[@mac37j]

Are wiggle torpedo any better?
