Slava Carry - What Are These Captain Builds???

A Slava game after which I spend some time exploring the builds of various players. I have no idea why people build their captains like this, what is this.

[@Flamuu]

Looking up the builds the average player runs has been eye-opening, people really have some absolutely atrocious captain builds. BB players hate fire prevention, DD players hate last stand and SE, Cruisers hate conceal but love AA and basically everyone hates AR, the best 3 pointer in the game. Baffling.

[@damiandorhoff719]

well I guess it is propably better that I don´t use this Mod. I might find out that my Teammates run a Lighthouse Build on a Shima without Last stand, AR and Survivability Expert

[@ImRandomDude]

Teammates be like: so I died at beginning, and I ignored boost caps, I dont shoot dds, I put myself behind islands, I sail broadside. THIS CLEARLY MUST BE WINNING STRATEGY! IT WORKED, LETS DO IT AGAIN

[@wtpiv6041]

As a BB main for a long time it’s just wild to think other captains don’t spec into FP.

[@johnweir9447]

Can you post the link for the shipbuilder/gameplay review site? I run WoWs monitor to give me an idea of who on either team should be focused/helped, but I didn't know that there was a replay review site.

That Serhi dude survived 5537 out of 6290 games on Conqueror btw. #winrateisnteverything

That Yoshino was a gift, that kept on giving.

[@Flamuu]

Also heads up, tomorrow I'm doing a SUBATHON, so expect a lot of wonky challenge clips on youtube and I'll prob be streaming for a LONG time.

[@obaniehia]

yo what happened? we were going to gouden Div brawls on NA lol

[@427Arbok]

In fairness to the Shima, he did indeed shoot at the Yoshino for at least a little while before Flamu noticed; you can see him take a chunk out of it before Flamu pans the camera away. Looks like the Yoshino just managed to get a heal off right as he started shooting, and the Shima was struggling to get enough damage out to put him down.

[@ComeonmenID10T]

9209 Battles with a 37% WR .....started in T7 with 2 Battles, T8 with 71, T9 with 149, T11 with 72 and all the rest ( 8915 ) is T10, no wonder he doesn't know Jack, he never learned anything

[@bandofbrothers5860]

Has a destruction ratio ot 3.79. The guy survived 5k out of 6k battles. He barely dies because that's how passive he plays. Classic example of a very good destruction ratio but being a very bad player lol.

[@str1x320]

Flolo should do this type of scientific research more often. These builds are just complete memes 😂

[@zacharyjackson1829]

Yeah WG needs take Flamu's videos like these and tag them in the News.. maybe it might reach stupid players and make them want to get better or their asses may be the next ones to get flamed

[@DaroZuo]

Literally 30 seconds of Google search and you can find all the builds you need and these people cannot be bothered

[@TheSaberra]

Unless your standard potato would like to stand out and thinks that other skills are more fun.

[@user-dz7jz3wv7k]

While I agree that it's probably best to look up some builds not everyone is metagaming in this game. Most people probably just look through the skills and think "Oh, this one sounds fun, I'll pick this". Or in case of the Shimakaze the thought process is "My boat torpedo boat, have to pick everything torpedo" :)

[@thomasgronin2504]

I am still amazed about how some players archive below 40% WR in this game. I'm convinced staying afk in spawn will net you about the same which means they have pretty much no positive impact on a match while having played thousands of them. Truely some advanced animal research going on here.

[@Nico_Dica]

Quite paradoxaly I'm pretty conviced some have more negative impact than afk people, i.e DDs going toward one side and then suddenly decide to u-turn and go on journey to the other side of the map leaving the BBs that initialy followed them without any kind of vision and unprotected from enemy DDS.. Also I've seen afk people giving surprisingly good spotting, more than a guy stuck behind an island would provide 🥲

[@thomasgronin2504]

@@Nico_Dica Good point. I've noticed aswell that some players consitantly find this one spot on the map where they can't shoot or spot anything from.

[@JD-kl8hz]

@@Nico_Dica They certainly do. a dd sitting in spawn afk makes people have to respect the fact it's alive at least until it is spotted. these idiots just sail in and die and make everyone else's job harder since the enemy team knows there is no screen.

[@CyberneticArgumentCreator]

When I started the game like 5 years ago, I was like 65% WR after 200 games. Some people just do not have the spatial reasoning to generate game sense. It can't be learned for them. They mindlessly queue up, soo target, shoot target, drive towards cap point or don't drive at all. There is no in between and they never have the position to impact the game positively for their team.

[@MMNDrDre]

@@CyberneticArgumentCreator I feel you there. I am in a newbie friendly casual clan and try to teach people the big picture skills. Some people just don't get it. I don't claim to be more than slightly above average, but some people refuse to grasp the simpler broad concepts.

[@Terrados1337]

2:34 so uhm I heard "gaper" not "gamer". Which instantly conjured an image of the average Yoshino player opening wide to receive Slava-senpais broadside. I feel physically violated by my own brain.

[@120420]

Nice match Flamu. Don't ask about today's Playerbase. They have no clue which way up or down is, let alone if the world is round!

[@ViktorShahter]

From this video I learned that WoWS Shipbuilder got web version and that you can somehow check other player's build. Now a question: how?

[@CopperBased]

My favorite potato teammate was in RANKED. It was a range mod Nevsky who border humped the whole game, shooting from 20+km the whole match, which I didn't know a Nevsky could do. He would angle his ship and adjust his speed by turning out and then in against the border to fire his front guns and then turn back out He never turned in towards a cap, never radared, wound up at the very corner of the map. I spoon fed him two wins.

[@KS7.]

Its hard to wrap your head around this if you can think rationally .. in my old clan, there was this one dogshit player who´s "best pick" in CBs was Shima. Which is kinda fine if you got a good team but this guy also had Smaland and said Shima is better. Yes, read that again. I remember this down to every detail because i was so baffled by his build when i asked him to show me his build, because i wanted to give him logical advice on what he can improve (silly me) He ran a god awful build : Instead of LS and SE he took DE and torp speed. His reasoning : "Her guns are bad so i want more fires and shima has slow torps." But he also took turret traverse and BFT because "turrets are slow and reload is also slow" He took all torp skills and consumable enh. cause "its a torp boat and i want to use smoke and engine boost for a longer time" Always remember guys : You cant teach ignorant people.

[@BillMcD]

correction, you can teach the ignorant, but you cant fix stupid. dunning kreuger is real.

[@JerzeyBoy]

Yeah I'd boot him off for that logic alone.

[@KaguyasBeat]

The next thing I'd love to know beyond seeing these builds and W/Rs, is why. What is it that these people(?) are thinking when they do these things.

[@ivanovitchivanovsky8255]

The WoWs playerbase is truly special and it scares the shit out of me knowing that I share the roads with these absolute animals. If I die in a car accident... it was probably a 40% winrate WoWs gamer that hit me.

[@Manol6325]

should've also checked that brisbane's stats, people who use test ships are so dented when they play randoms

[@florianbielawa2919]

I once saw a guy like that Conq but it was a Kremlin on the enemy team, for some reason sitting in the corner of the map and shooting lmao.

[@mattmac4087]

These players are kind of people to mount square wheels in their cars and bikes because in their minds they always know better and don't need advice.

[@constantine9795]

Buddy the most crazy from everything I saw about conq is that he made it above others to scoreboard... can u imagine the others?!

[@richard_zanormous3648]

11:27 Welcome to our world Flamu. Most of my games blow out games go like this. MM loves 50% win rates. The RNG gets throttled.

[@kaalen24]

Who needs engines and modules including torpedo tubes launchers? If you play perfect and never face a CV you can launch these improved torps and run for your life while praying that they hit right?

how did you open HIS build? can you shortly explain ?

[@mike393000]

Can someone explain how you do this? I went to the site but don't get it... you upload a replay?

[@damiandorhoff719]

well could be worse. The Shimas on your Team could decide to skip both Last Stand and all Concealment Skills both Module and the Captain Skill. Then he realizes that his Shima needs to be played very passive because it has weak gunns and get outspotted by all the other dds. People love torping but they hate cvs so he would run all the torp skills and all the aa skills. Then he could tell the bbs that if they want something spotted they should do it themself

( 02:00 ) Slawa is scary, Bourgogne just HE volleys you to port, Venezia can get easy angles to use the SAP and a DD with Airstrike.. Retreating all the way to the other flank wasn't necessary but yea, I'd have left as well. :D PS: How do you get the cpt builds of players like that?

You can get unlucky and lose the occasional game in coop mode, but a 10% loss rate is mindboggling. And what those players were doing with their builds is just more proof that trying to play 4D chess is not something everyone can do. 😂🤣😅😆

[@Dominus_Potatus]

The last shima, I can still understand about minmax... took RPF and good concealment, combine with supposedly good positioning (which he didn't have), you won't need health since you won't engage in gun fight. I mean okay... it is not competitive built, but I can see the fun. Yoshino and Conqueror... I simply don't understand
