How To Play Castilla: EP.1 WoT Blitz

[@hisroyalfatness]

For those of you who are concerned about heavies at windmill, if you hug the hill properly the house in encounter cap protects you from them. However that is only if you have heavies at windmill. If none of your team goes mill then do not take this position. Hope that helps if anyone is confused.

[@waldnerjerome3979]

HisRoyalFatness thanks that will help me alot keep up the good content

[@Sayuki402]

what do you do if the same thing happens on the other spawn?your meds didn't go with you to hill but the enemy meds did.

[@hisroyalfatness]

Aaron Weng either run or try to hold on your spawn side of hill. Depends on how your team is covering you.

[@tankinatorxxx6507]

Thx for teaching us to be more appreciative of even the most underated and smallest map features that we take for granted. That was acc pretty smart usage that I never thought of. Continue blowing our mind with knowledge hrf! 🧠 🤯 📖

[@lukeb1663]

You have any tips on how to counter that position? Or is it so rare that people really haven’t found the counter yet. (Honestly it’s probably to rotate out and go fight elsewhere but I haven’t seen it before in a game)

[@hisroyalfatness]

What do you guys think about these short map positioning vids?

[@Mich-wc6do]

Yes

[@bacon6785]

These are the best vids on WOT BLITZ right now. Got a 6k damage mastery in my standard b bottom tier, on the same map, on the same position you were talking about, and not 15 minutes after watching this. Thx for taking the time to share your tactics, and keep up the good work!

Great series Fatness! It's going to help new and unskilled players like me to get better and if we all get better the game is going to be more fun. Looking forward to more of these.

I actually really love that position I think it is one of the most influential positions in blitz. Really great work!

[@the_uns33n]

Oh, Never though of that spot. Maybe now I can "carry harder" like me teams always tell when im doing 4k and still losing. These vids will be very helpful!

[@hisroyalfatness]

Thanks! It’s such a golden spot imo. Of course only works if your camping teammates hit their shots 😂

[@tfodthogtmfof7644]

These are the sorts of spots many people just do not find or use. Thanks for showing them.

[@collinkrause4658]

This was like my suggestion, know when to move/reposition. Like taking that spot because ur team is camping and utilizing campers on the team vs climbing the castle, this series is a keeper!

okay i really need this series its the only part i struggle with because i cannot for the life of me find map spots for my tank so thank you also that position is now my favorite spot for my type 59 ding

[@hisroyalfatness]

Awesome! Just remember if you’re taking this spot to keep an eye on your team and whether the enemy heavies may push on you. You should be safe if you hug the little hill unless enemy heavies start pushing your spawn

[@m4th1s8]

I have a good position where i think no one really go, it's on canyon, south spawn. Usualy, meds go at the right of the first pillar of the ark to go on the hill, spot etc... But if you dont have necesserily a good gun depression you can take left and stop behind the little hill of dirt, and here you can shot tanks crossing and going to A, tds camping at the back. I held the ledt flank from here with my T34-3, prevented 3 enemi heavies to push and flank my team mates.

[@hisroyalfatness]

Yes I use that spot on occasion as well :)

[@froggy5851]

[@jarodlemuellcuenco7836]

Thank you for this!, one of the hardest maps to play especially if teammates are not great

For sure! I’ll definitely make more than one video on this map as I get the clips for it. Best way to learn is from seeing how it plays out. :)

this is why i love ur channel

[@hisroyalfatness]

Thank you :)

[@dennis4029]

At the start you can also go a bit further around the church and spot the TDs on the hill. Because you have the highground only the turret is visible and you can easily delete the TDs with the help of your team (or atleast damage them and prevent that they farm your team). But don't stay there to long because the TDs will fall back anyways and the heavies from the left will have shots on you.

[@hisroyalfatness]

This is something I always do haha. In fact if you watch the replay I was about to do that before the 50b appeared behind me 🙈

[@alwayslearninglessons]

Found this in 2023 and will try this position. Always learning. Thanks my dude.

[@dstandfill77]

This was great, keep them coming!

[@hisroyalfatness]

Thanks! :)

[@jonahc8673]

Maybe for the next series try doing port bay? I feel like 90% of my losses on that map are from either meds not gaining corner or heavies not supporting meds. Maybe do a tactical video on what to do If that happens? Also I think I got the prog 65 down, tell me if I’m wrong but you should play it kinda like the 4005 no? You wait for enemy to shoot then you punish them with 1k. Idk it seems effective like that. Also great content and as always great quality! Your channel is gonna surpass the 10k mark in a blink of an eye! GL and stay chill

[@hisroyalfatness]

Definitely plan on covering Port Bay :)

Damn never knew about this. Thanks :) I'm only average, but will you share the position near the cap behind the houses on the ledge above the river? When I get a light or fast medium w/good view range there, I spot the HTs as they cross to the wind mill and my TDs just destroy them :P

[@hisroyalfatness]

True. I don’t usually go there because I’m trapped but I could make a vid on it :)

[@arshia1968]

Great video, fabulous content, thanks a million 👍continue please

[@hisroyalfatness]

Thank you! :)

[@KEKKREEM]

It is an excellent position to be sure. However, as with all battles, it depends on your team. If you have a team of idiots who don't support and watch your back, or just sit and camp in their heavies you are going to get lit up. Regardless, your videos are most helpful and I look forward to seeing your approach. My game continues to improve and hopefully I will be ready for tier lX and X by September. Not yet good enough for those top two tiers.

[@hisroyalfatness]

For sure! Most teams are happy to sit back and snipe, but it’s definitely a risk. Also, good for you for taking your time going through the tiers. People tend to rush way to quickly. 💪

[@KEKKREEM]

@@hisroyalfatness Thanks for your reply. I want to research to each level. Grinding through makes you a better tanker imho. I do have one collector tier X but it sits in garage collecting dust for now. I have 3 tier lXs but I am barely at 50% with those so I don't run them as much as my tier Vllls.

[@x_devasto_x6104]

Soo, really good idea about making these mini series +u teaching how to use strengts of the tank like this patton on that position, not every tank could propably not that effective on that position like no armoured lights, bad gun depression tanks etc, but really good idea to teach players to find best strengts of the tanks and to search where to use them as best as they can ( I prefer to play big Wot on PC or simply watch videos about that to understand that some strenghts of the tank are extremly important to take some positions or u can be uneffective as hell and other thinks, like on batchat: on blitz u can be effective even from beggining but on pc u need to wait 6-7min sometimes cuz this is for 2 half of the game only tank, on first half ur uneffective as hell and needs to simply wait)

[@hisroyalfatness]

Thanks for the suggestions!

[@SanderDoesThings]

[@aynoodle5635]

Great video, very comprehensive while being direct with the info on the positioning. Was wondering if you could consider doing a video on how to effectively play the STB-1, it would be really helpful.

[@hisroyalfatness]

Of course! :)

[@burnbash11]

this was great, i always die on the other spot that u mentioned cause i get pushed, but in this position would u get shot from the heavies by mill a lot? since u cant really move

[@hisroyalfatness]

If you hug that mound of dirt properly and you have heavies preventing the red heavies from pushing over the hill you should be fine. Definitely a tricky position if your team doesn’t split properly

This video helped me! I was in sherman firefly and took this position. Even though I took a lot of shots due to height of the tank, I was able to provide good spotting and target to my team, and this resulted in comfortable win, even though I died near the end. I have a specific request: please show good TD spots in Yukon, specially with Grille, as Grille has no armor.

Thx for the vid. I wanna ask if you are in a mt and youre outnumbered. Should i go to the hill near the castle ( is usually gone to when you are in a 1 vs 3,4) to hold?

[@hisroyalfatness]

If the enemy has control of the hill I wouldn’t do it. If they’re spread across the low ground then it’s a pretty solid spot.

[@hisroyalfatness]

Gotcha Death Star 😂

[@lukeb1663]

If you wanna know how to play the Death Star, it’s quite simple; pre aim at a spot you know the enemy will appear, shoot when they poke, hope your shot goes where you aimed because it more than likely will go about 10 miles in any direction that isn’t the enemy. Edit: forgot the most important part. You then get spotted and die. Hope that helps

[@NH00531]

Whilst this position relies on good cover, there’s nothing wrong with asking the td’s/heavies to do precisely that. I’ve won a lot of games because there was some good old fashioned communication and the team was playing for the team not just damage for themselves. Nice work👍

[@hisroyalfatness]

Sooo true! They don’t always listen but nothing is better than people helping when you ask and it works out.

[@TheAngloSoviet91]

Hey Fatness, really enjoyed this insight into the positioning on Castilla. I just wanted to ask, is it a viable tactic to push a heavium gun depression tank (Chieftain etc) to the same spot? I find the heavy side quite tricky as there's not a lot of good hulldown cover.

[@hisroyalfatness]

Honestly a chieftain could work ok the hill, but it depends on what your team is doing and what the enemy team is doing. Difficult to say.

[@TheAngloSoviet91]

@@hisroyalfatness That's a good point, I guess the hill is only a golden spot when your team has control of the heavy side (or enemy has pushed med). I will say though, it's nice to get side shots on enemies pushing heavy hill when they don't expect you to be there ;)
