Let's Improve - Nicholas - World of Warships

So I'm starting a new series where I will be playing ships in which I performed poorly and seeing if I can improve. This will often require me to play ships I dislike, consider week, unattractive etc.
However I decided to play few ships which average player does very poorly in. Hopefully it will help YOU improve by watching how it's done properly.
Bear in mind the only stats I will be showing here are either mine or of the entire community.
I will be laughing at my own stats far more then of those of community, but at no point will I stats shame anyone in particular...besides myself xD The point of this is to improve ;)
Enjoy and have fun watching ;)

That's actually pretty fair. By the time you have a 10 point commander you're generally not at tier 5. 6 points maximum I'd expect to be a touch more realistic. You also generally want to get out of tier 5 as fast as possible, at least I did!

since starting with a 6-pointer nowadays, you might probably have an 8-point captain when your´re reaching Tier 5. Still no CE or RPF. And probably almost half of your games with the stock hull.

@Tommy Andreassen Point your making? Doubt even you know because you didn't say anything that had any relation to what the guy you replied to stated. Fact is even if he took out another Nicholas their combined damage is still more than double the server average for the ship so the objective of the video remains valid as does the post you replied to. Nobody said anything about the other guy sucking, or being a noob, or whatever nonsense is going on in your head.

The fact that the Nicholas and Farragut are very popular and get played so much brings down the averages. Even good players can get detonated. A single shot from a Gnevy blew me up once in a full health Nicholas, which did not help the averages.

Should maybe use the eye tracker thingy Flamu uses for this serie on teaching people... Or even better, show & comment the replay of games with the eye tracker, bcoz I am not sure just seeing you playing help that much those who don’t know the bases. It’s a good idea though, can help a lot, and the community desperately need to increase avrg skill, but lot of people are bad bcoz lazy. They don’t take time to learn mechanics, or watch good players doing their things, or just don’t understand how/why this or that decision in upstream guaranteed the kill or the victory from the good player, etc... Need to make it easy to learn for them, or they won’t (aiming at potatoes here ofc, not all are. But those who are, are just bcoz of their laziness to learn and improve... make it easier/faster to learn is the best way to ensure they improve after watching u imo). GG btw, easy seal clubbing 👍 lol

[@Dorkrust]

Nice idea, unfortunately I'm pretty sure too many of the tatos aren't actually capable of improvement because they don't watch wows videos/streams and don't have the self awareness to recognize their own mistakes. It could be laziness, but I think it's quite likely a question of capacity as well.

Take a 'poorly-performing' ship, blame the potatoes (not necessarily falsely), go out with full-points captain, full bunting in the breeze with great camo, then bitch-slap the bejesus out of folks. I'm a slightly over average player (I no longer play), if I could play like Flambass, I'd have a you-tube channel, etc.

[@batuhantunali8295]

The moment u already know every single game cause u inhale every stream lol

[@zsolthb]

You always forget and by you, I mean all the content creators who play 6+ hours a day, that there most of the low-tier ships are played by newbies, who in many cases do not really have a general understanding of the game. Not everybody starts the game in the premium shop. It is relatively easy to get to T5-6, and then the struggle starts, especially for US DDs. Comparatively shitty torps, weird ballistics, lack of, or no booster flags at all. And bear in mind, not everyone is playing on a daily basis. I play since the CBT, but rarely more than 6-10 hours a month and I often take longer breaks from the game. I have not touched the game since March. I still haven’t reached T8 in any of the tech-trees. I do not really care anymore. Being up-tiered 85% of the matches is a real mood-killer. Watching your streams and vids way more fun, although most of the time it seems you are not playing in the same dimension.

[@Dorkrust]

True enough, I am also an old beta player with only just over 1k battles total and the only t10 are the IJN & USN CA lines. I don't think most mid tier ships are played by newbies though, when I do fire the game up I regularly see people with thousands of games just in mid tiers, a lot of people like the bracket because it's less campy and less gimmicks, there are some real gems in the mids as well. Having said that the 9-5 uni are completely disconnected from the player base in expectations, I myself am nearly Uni(57% 1780PR) and still do half the average damage these guys do. Uptiered can really suck yeah, cruisers especially IMO because overmatch exists, however uptiered is also an opportunity to rake in some incredible XP if you can perform decently. I myself just live vicariously through the streamers most of the time these days, haven't played since ~6 months after the CV rework made AA worthless.

[@Matthew10950]

I think half of tier 5 and 6 are players who have been around for a while and are going down for some fun games on favorite ships. The other half are new or less experienced. You can see it. Lose five ships in 6 minutes, then have a knife fight with those that remain. I like it, personally.

[@Micharus]

Seeing the incoming torps from friendly players, reminds me of a game I had very recently. It was co-op, my team was one other actual player in a CV and the rest were bots. Towards the end it was me, the other player and a AI crs, vs an AI BB and a CV. TLDR, the AI crs from MY TEAM launched torps at ME, or that is what it seemed like. No other ships except me in the direction the torps were headed.... Ya gotta wonder sometimes. Apart from that, I have one cmdr with 14 points. I wish I had a 21 point cmdr to put on my Nicholas.

I remember when I tried US DDs, up to Clemson this was a blast. Then Nicholas came... And I didn't understand how to play her. I tried FXP her to get to Farragut, and it was even more tragic. But I don't play DDs like ever. You vid may be a godsend :)

[@ColoradoStreaming]

Clemson to Nicholas is a nightmare until you figure out the US DD tactics at the mid tier. Farragut is more of the same of the Nicholas and the Mahan is when you can finally stealth torp. The trick to Nicholas is to fire behind islands at sitting BBs, ambushing BBs around islands and stealth torping BBS that are heading toward you.

[@LandoMan09]

That fucking gasp at seeing Farragut was amazing

[@benjdm]

Nicholas is my favorite ship in the game. Definitely the most enjoyable.

[@ColoradoStreaming]

The problem with the Nicholas is beginner players get used to the Seal clubbing play style of the Clemson then hit a wall at the Nicholas because you cant yolo torp run like you used to and Tier 5 play is much more strategic and methodical than the Tier 4 run and gun. I was racking up 6-8 kills when I was playing Clemson then moved up the Nicholas and was extremely frustrated at first on how much different you need to play the game.

GG but you have some issues to adress: 1: Nicholas is a good ship, you even say this in the video. I think I read you telling that you would be increasing low-grade ships, not great ships. 2: Your ship is top-heavy of flags, premium camo, all the upgrades and modules... Consider giving a handicap. Take the updates, but use some stock modules. Easy on flags, and maybe a poor-man's camo. 3: Less than 10 point commander is mandatory. Concealment expert in this tier is game-breaking skill.

[@GoliatTube]

I make 50-90k dmg every battle with stock Nicholas and captain with less than 10 points. True is its no more "the thinking man's action game" wg change it to potato party. Now in t10 battles we have players with 10-40k battles and they still dont know basics and game mechanic.

[@Dorkrust]

​@@ibnu9969 OFC he's disconnected, all the uni are really, but the point of the video was to try and bring the low average damage up. Now whether that's a waste of time or not is another question given he would have to play thousands of games in the Nicholas to meaningfully affect the server average. Also about most players do less than half his average damage, I think it's more like 10% of players do half his damage, another 30% do half of those players damage, and the other 60% do half of those players damage :P
