Now that you mention it... Marceau would be cool to see Edit: The community has spoken, THE FRENCH STALLION RIDES

[@clownshoeing]

Bought this a few weeks ago and love it, but there really aren't that many 'how to play well' videos. There are some from PQ, Malta, Trenlass, etc. but nothing super comprehensive. But regardless would love PQs take on Marceau in the current meta.

[@simonmichaelis1492]

Since you said you will play some mid tier ships, I'd love to see Vanguard next.

[@davidhines7592]

vanguard is tier 8. likely to get uptiered. and... has no gimmicks or modules. plays like a very large large cruiser.

[@totolescargo]

Fun fact : Colbert's 127mm HE has natively more damage than its counterparts (2100 DMG VS the regular ~1800 DMG HE shells of this caliber get). When you pick Heavy HE shells (and you should, since the caliber is lower than 149mm, you don't suffer worse concealment), you end up with a whopping 2310 DMG per shell. That's more than Worcester's 152mm shells (2200 DMG) ! All with the rate of fire 127mm allows. And that's why Colbert's DPM is so high.

[@EvoraGT430]

IF they penetrate, that is.

[@mkkttmttr3401]

Full AP Zao, the Assassin of Cruisers needs to be shown.

[@TopRacer-tx5cd]

Yeah! I've absolutely murdered some cruisers with Zao's Ap, it truly is an underrated ship, it one of my favourites, and i'd pick it over Yoshino. Simply because Zao's dispertion and sigma are way better. However i like Yoshi too if RNG favors her a little

[@ValleySubRailfan4643]

Seeing the Konig or Bayern would be nice. Haven’t seen very many low tier German battleship videos on your channel.

[@intangible_kant]

Fought John the Ruthless's Colbert in my Bungo once, 12km engagement. Absolute nightmare, it was like that feeling of fighting a carrier.

[@ujjwal7502]

Rip

[@piervisser3121]

Kitakaze seems like a nice followup to this

[@hagostaeldmann]

Colbert no conceal 13.8km range full damage is unironically the proper build. Not a preferred or aggressive build, it is truly the only build you should run on this ship.

[@jakubslavik5595]

I do agree that it's the only proper build for Colbert, but you can definitely be aggresive with it, you just need to be smart about it, in fact it's preferable, because you will be a constant pain to the enemy and with such a range you need to do risky things, otherwise that dpm goes to waste.

[@AnteEdits]

I would love to see the Kii ! Its such a great Battleship at Tier 8

[@solberione]

Kii's a pretty decent ship, she can be a surprisingly decent IJN brawler like the Iwami if given a dedicated secondary build. Those 100mm turrets which possess similar characteristics (including improved armor pen capacity) as the Akizuki's main batteries, coupled with the common casemate 140s and especially the aft Long Lance torps give her a huge advantage in close quarters engagements. Only issues with her are the somehow worse main armor belt layout than Amagi that causes her to eat citadels more often when broadside (quite ironic that the battlecruiser design turned out to have a better protection scheme than the actual battleship), slightly shorter main battery range than her cousin, as well as generally wonkier dispersion and lower sigma value. Maybe she is indeed built to be the IJN take on German brawler BBs from the start...

[@jackcasse]

I play the Kii at least once a day so I can get that phat credit bonus.

[@dwaynegriffey4137]

Secondary Kii delivers!!

[@tijger5353]

gearing?

[@Blackdeath939]

I literally only call that thing "John's ship". Also, tell John to make more videos.

[@TonyC2328]

Watching John the Ruthless play this ship is absolutely disgusting. The man has 3k battles on it and averages 189k damage

[@WARStPierre]

Friesland/Groningen is one of my favorites. Love to see how you're playing it these days

[@smaug9617]

I have met Friesland only once in match . I was in my Thunderer and it was painful. Even Smolensk is not that strong in my opinion or maybe it was just very very good player.

[@WARStPierre]

@@smaug9617 must have been me haha. Yeah, I think it's a bit underappreciated, but very powerful. People hate you and call you mean names when you use it though haha

Wow that Sap was ridiculous

[@bLockC1pher]

Feast or Famine type outcome Ship, I don't Know what to thick, but That DPM looks juicy, which then makes the paper side armor go down a bit easier. I like it!!!.

Radar mino pushing with you when you are in dd is pretty powerfull. Like it may die, but it will take all dds on cap with him...

[@remiperrin1831]

Thanks for this video. Contrary to most streamers (who make you believe they only get 180K games) , you are posting also bad games where over extending gets punished. For the average player like me it is comforting ... I came back to the game after 4 years of absence and I'm really struggling. My experience curve is a bellshape centered on mid tier, (since I grinded all of my ships) but when I look at player profile now (90% T10), I realize most play very few low tier and than buy premium Tier 10. This has two consequences - Lower tier are less populated, and when you play T8, you get always a T10 Match Making (with premiums) - The majority stay in the back of the map and snipe, even when all the cap circles are red ... (very frequent with high stats guys, just farming). Stupidely I get frustrated, I try to compensate, push , overextend and get devstrike. I have to learn like you to laugh about it, and just concentrate to do my possible best ... especially since I love playing cruisers. Unfortunatly CL like my Seattle for instance is impossible to play, and I had to exchange coal for Napoli, to be able to play agressively and still get over 10mn of play ... Have to grind heavy cruisers like the French Marseille line, or the DM line (I love the Baltimore, and btw wouldn't mind seeing a video on it, from you ?). Will go through your other videos, I like the tone, the calm and the comments on positionning = one more subscriber for you 😀👍

[@WhimsicalPacifist]

Something you have never done: the Super Battleship Mikasa. Cross the T and go in with both broadsides blazing.

[@requispwarship]

minotaur “lighthouse” radar aa build 🥰

[@carlmeyle2513]

I genuinely enjoy your content, even when you occasionally get a tad stressed about actual versus expected performance. Many if not most ships perform much better when in a division with complimentary ships. For example, Bayern with an American DD providing approach smoke is a beast. Low tiers with little to no radars are a lot of fun.

[@deaninchina01]

The bullshit that passes for randoms these days is THE reason I almost exclusively play ranked. Done that for the last couple of years because people generally have to push. CVs being banned this season has made it awesome. Pure ship play!!!!

@@BSoDexe It is bad. Like if you play T9-10 there is mostly like 2-4 radar ships in each team. All cruisers have hydro and some BBs have radar. Also CVs and subs don't help much.
