Over three years into this game and still learning. Thanks for the tip on armor penetration with German AP vs DDs.

[@metajerk]

Yeah, it’s especially spicy on the smaller German dd guns on maass and z-46! 👍

[@mustang_hr]

Zero fire unluckily 😅😂

[@nemesisgaming9479]

This thing makes the Khabarovsk look like a ferrari.. those torps remind me of Yoshino's 20km torps... a lot of times I send them off to typical traffic lanes and 10 minutes later I see a torp hit and laugh a bit as I die on the inside for my inability to tell wargaming no

[@metajerk]

🤣

[@kevinhjhjmu7539]

That's a strange looking Bayard... I do have to say the damage always racks up very fast once you start shooting. Not a fast reload yes, but you hit every shell you shoot.

[@metajerk]

That’s a good point, every salvo is about 6000 with just pens alone.

[@toddswanson1127]

Ggs brah, didn’t even know who the crazy bugger was in the Vinny v just now till I saw the camo. I was the crazy brandy lol

[@metajerk]

ho ho ho... just you wait.. a few games after that and I got the one I was looking for.. will upload it in a little bit 😂

[@toddswanson1127]

@@metajerk I have no doubt! You got two on the way to me. I always play aggressive tho so I die having fun.

[@stutat6812]

Awesome as normal jerk and nice to see you're the only American cc who can pronounce Edinburgh correctly lol

[@metajerk]

“Em-Bruh” 🤣 I don’t remember where I learned that, but I was all “this I can remember!”

[@stutat6812]

@metajerk also with Marlborough it's pronounce marl-bruh lol sorry if I sound patronising but out all the cc's you seem to try and grasp it lol also you say "zed" instead of "zee" which it ace 🤣🤣

[@metajerk]

@@stutat6812 there is a cigarette brand here called Marlboro… so it will always be pronounced that way 🫠 Pronouncing z as zed is just funny, I will call the t-61 the “Ted 61” as well, much lulz.

[@stutat6812]

Yeah I've smoked them but to pricy now. Look forward to you calling the t-61 "ted" if you do a kraken video in it lol its good to know that you take the time to respond to comments on you're channel. Try not to get to hammered new years eve matey 🤣

[@Paladun100]

i found your vid thru a suggestion so i just had to sub and like , love the way you play , so goofy and funny ,thank you

[@metajerk]

Aw, thanks mang! Glad you enjoy, we’re just out here having fun and smashing ships while we’re at it, happy to have you!

[@pavlovskaya_farms]

You fired those torps back in March. Lol

[@metajerk]

Those torps were fired when they lent me the ship the first time 🤣

[@callmedeee5215]

I have been sitting on about 1.3mil GXP. Maybe it's time I spend it, but I'm always worried something better will come out right after. Hrrmmm.... I'd like a really good cruiser to come out, I have all the current.

[@metajerk]

Well… patch notes next week? They so seldom add new GXP ships (well, that weren’t campaigns first).. but then it’s only a two weeks update… so you’ll still have temptation to wait 🫠

[@lobbyrobby]

Rumor is there's still torps on their way to their location

[@metajerk]

Stay alert, some were launched 6 months ago!

[@Sempergrumpy441]

I have been thinking about savings for the Elbing since I am already at 1m global exp. Seems like a ship with a lot of potential but also seems like a ship that's very matchmaking dependent since your primary food in this thing are cruisers and like you mentioned you are basically taking a destroyer slot to play a cruiser.

[@metajerk]

Indeed, it has great AA, but it’s pretty bad for doing destroyer things 🫠

[@chazpher]

Hey Meta, Great video, thanks for another look at the Elbonkers! 😂

[@metajerk]

Cheers mang, on to the next!

Meta is touching me in places right now.

[@dimosthenistserikis5901]

The problem is that more often than not you will get uptiered cause elbing is a tier eight. And let me tell you, getting bullied by legendaries is no bueno. Another notable problem is that, especially at legendary tier, cruisers are rare which translates to elbing being virtually useless, until it gets trashed by a gearing or a cleber anyway. Idk, I like the premise of this ship but I have not been having terrific success so far…

[@metajerk]

Yeeeeeep to all of this. This was a fortunate match..

[@MrBIGBRY7]

Great game Jerk! Happy New Year!

[@metajerk]

Thank ya!

[@DontAttme]

There are lots of CCs, Metajerk is my favourite however.

[@metajerk]

I’m sure you say that to all of them 🤣

[@DontAttme]

@@metajerk only if I’m intoxicated!

[@3_D-nz4nl5xh7w]

Always a pleasure Jerk. Elbing is on the list of next gxp ships. Have to see if I can resist t7 lol. Lots of boats at that tier I can use also. 🍻

[@metajerk]

I think it would be in the bottom half of GXP ships, but before Krispy crème and a few others..

[@Thunderlord_Tozn]

I love cruiser hunter DDs. I know they’re not the best at winning games but it’s so satisfying citadel-ing cruisers to death in a DD.

[@metajerk]

💯 getting a good bonking on the light cruisers is so hilarious too 🤣

[@ballchungus1900]

Elbing does not mess around with broadside minotaurs (I learnt that the hard way)

[@metajerk]

Doesn't mess around with _any_ broadsides, hard part is actually having a match last long enough where you get to find them 🫠

[@kyleleuthe6367]

Two videos in two days?! Thank you sir!

We’re on a roll this week!

[@-Hoshi-]

my favourite thing to do in elbing is to just sit on the side of a cap and get all the broadside cruisers. i took out 2 worcesters and a des moines the other day because of that, and then later on a yoshino

[@metajerk]

You found a match with cruisers? Lucky 🫠

[@-Hoshi-]

@@metajerk Ikr! I only realised how lucky i was that day when i logged on today to play some elbing, only to be met with nothing but LT DDs, BBs and.... CVs

[@ayoubdjadja8477]

Jerk, I got a question. Have you got a kraken on the European Tier VI or VII?. Because I got the Skane today and it's so good. The way I play it is setting fires with the guns then hope they DC. Then get a flood right after and it works. Just wanted to share out, and GG!

[@metajerk]

Yessum, Skåne, Oland, and Östergötland have all been on the big shoe.. if you’re ever looking to spend a little scratch, then Oland is an awesome pickup, it’s everything you love about Skåne but way better, harder hitting torps, faster firing guns etc.. on pc it’s actually the tech tree ship between Skåne and Östergötland.. But you can wait, because Östergötland is faaaaaantastic and free!

[@knighthawkS86]

I did not expect to like this little boat (little being a relative term, lol) so much... but in the 1st match out after citadelling a Worcester 8 times at 10km? Oh yah, this is gonna be guddin 😁

[@metajerk]

So situational, so fun, such a bad destroyer 🤣

[@i_ned_inteldata4628]

Just had 8k ap damage on a gearing 😂, it should has 15km range

[@metajerk]

The the old chunkiness of gearing showing.. Big oof!

[@cpt_failure6850]

I dont know about the whole not being able to do destroyer things. I mean you do have great stealth, the most HP for a t8 dd and 25mm side plating which most dd's HE will shatter on. For me its a great dd, just gotta keep that low maneuverability in mind and youre good to go.

[@metajerk]

IMO, that low maneuverability is huge, and the 25mm plate is more a liability if you’re going against a decent DD player as that will absolutely arm any DD AP, admittedly, that’s a rarity 🤣 But still, fun ship!

[@iamhim3588]

[@metajerk]

Thx

[@disaster4258]

400k green XP to go. Also, I have taken W2R off of all my BB's. Much to the amusement of my div mates at times. They chuckle when I tell them to not bother sticking around, I run FwF. But it works and it feels more honest.

[@metajerk]

Same 🫡

[@ajwisniewski133]

Such a cool boat but I’m feeling that many will get it and be potato….

[@metajerk]

Totally.. I’m glad I have it now, and it may be a good ship for citadel challenges, but I doubt I will play it too often.

[@guilhermepoggiodeoliveirar3944]

Loved the intro, Jerk! Awesome video, as always!!! Just got my Marco Polo, and on the first play just got a dev strike on a Yoshino! Bello 🤌🇮🇹

[@metajerk]

Definitely the ship I prefer of the campaign.. nice! 🍝
