Meet The Midway! Legendary American Carrier (World of Warships Legends)

[@TehKang]

More than showing how broken carriers are I think this match is a wonderful highlight of how unbelievably brain dead high level play is right now. Far too many times I see matches like this where the whole team just lemming trains into oblivion. My team and the enemy team. I swear I've had more interesting matches again smarter opponents at tiers 3, 4 and 5 than I have at tiers 7, 8 and legendary.

[@peterjoyce4223]

Not broken in fact at this point they are nearly rendered useless and its a damn shame.

[@HMAlaska]

Please share for the class by what asinine logic this shows carriers as “broken”? Because he says he’s bad at them but manages an ok game? That’s not proof.

[@TehKang]

@@HMAlaska I would but there are ways to have a conversation and starting out with "Please share for the class" is NOT the way to start that conversation. Not to mention it's "share WITH the class" not "share FOR the class". I see your NWU's in your profile pic so I know for a fact you know how to be respectful. Also if you actually read what I said I said MORE THAN showing carriers being broken. Meaning I felt that the highlight point of this video should have been the ineptitude of the enemy team and how in high level play you see teams like what he faced far more often than you should. Personally I find carriers annoying rather than broken.

[@itsmedio6208]

I personally love playing carriers. I always die too fast playing other battleships. My overall dmg is actually higher when playing CVs since I'm able to stay alive for most of the match. Along with ability to scout, I feel like I'm providing more value for my team playing carriers rather than other ships.

[@David_Z220]

12:31 your planes didnt got shot down by the montana but by the CV fighter squad.

[@BaDw0lf577]

But for a damagepool of 6 Battleships who are in the game, 106 DMG is not much. You would have more DMG if you played any other BS. So i don't think CVs are OP. And you have to do more movement if the red team manages to playing better as this one. Sometimes you wish, you could sit in the back and drop bombs and torps at the enemy, but you have to run for your life the hole time. It really depends on the situation and the teams.

[@177SCmaro]

Its more that they get that kind of damage and utility while risking nothing that makes them OP. Also, this wasn't a particularly great game. Spartan openly said he doesn't like cv's and isn't very good in them.

Funny coincidence. I just got this thing yesterday. I’m not great with CV’s. The higher tier ones definitely have a learning curve.

[@Turtles7734]

I love playing carriers but I hate the usual builds. I mainly build into anti air and I push up with my team to destroy the enemy plains

[@FIatIined]

Whoa! I thought Spartan swore to never again jump into a Carrier. Hanging around at the back of the map in a Carrier just to launch planes isn't my idea of fun. That tactic reminds me of the British Tank Destroyer The Death Star.

[@peterjoyce4223]

It would be irresponsible and extremely neglectful as a cc to ignore carriers. Carriers play is awesome fun and a brilliant skill based addition to the game. They are very difficult to play and require intelligence and skill.( high tiers ) How often do you see them in top place on the board ? You don't . Try being competitive in a cv ......... nope not easy at all. Many people enjoy them every day and serve their team in many ways to spot the enemy dd and to render assistance and help them secure their win. They are here to stay. 😊

Now I can't wait to get this one myself. One more Project segment to go. About the only difference with your Commander build and mine is that I run Geisler for secondary reload, and Tanaka for Hull Crusher for that extra torpedo damage. Nothing quite like having American aerial torps that hit like Japanese aerial torps, right?

Legends players: "It's so stupid how players just ball up. We need something to tell players about the strategy of crossfires" Wargaming: "Alright. Here's Will to Rebuild and Carriers. Have fun" 🤣

[@177SCmaro]

Lol 😆

[@believeinahero6655]

One way to keep players from balling up, would be to have something that forces them (barrier, divide, etc), to stay on their sides for lioe 4 or 5 mins. Then, the "something" would disappear and they could go anywhere they wanted. This would solve so much to include positions being overloading early game.

[@moaningjeckyl676]

@@believeinahero6655 you can’t do that, it’s down to to person how he/she wants to play, you can’t force people to take a direction/route they don’t want to go, it’s a war strategy game so you use what strategy you want, if they added that to the game I wouldn’t play

[@andrewk.315]

Screw carriers, spartan you think you have bad luck. The other day I take out my new Mexico, first game of the day just trying to warm up. The carrier is the Ark Royal. Of course he chooses to attack me, hits me with one drop, 15 k gone and 2 fires. I then proceed to DC. He flies back around and TRIPLE FIRES ME!!! Taking 25k and then, he comes back with torpes and kills me... safe to say I threw my controller and stopped playing the game 😂😂😂

[@TheLiamis]

Ark royal is a t7+ at t5 its massively op. It lands 100% of bombs on target and the bombs hit hard.

Sorry that response isn’t entirely true. Remember back during August they were saying that they were changing coastlines on maps. That was the signal that they are and have been altering maps to accommodate submarines. According to some of the communities in Europe, these guys have been uncanny on predicting legends additions with a month or two error, some expect subs by late summer.. I personally have no strong feelings about this.

[@toddkollar4166]

Big fan as usual Spartan but I think you sour grapes on Midway is misguided. A 20,000 damage for a bomb run being too much? Come on a Conquer can beat that easy and hit it more often. So can most of the other legendary BBS. You can get get nicked by a stray torp and almost get that done to you. Carriers are a all or nothing situation. You get fairly good offense, the only one in the game that can be stopped after launch by the way. Your planes being shot down nullifies the run. But you have almost no reliable defenses for anything not plane based. As for this games version of Midway. She is woefully lacking. Bombs? Tier 7 actually do more damage. Torpedo strikes? Saipans is actually better. The ace in the hole for top end carriers on PC is attack aircraft. We do not get them. Now let talk about planes. Despite the description saying she had the largest deck and capacity Midway plane regen is the slowest in the game and she has less on deck than I think even tier 5.Keeping in mind this add that just a about everything she will come across has god tier AA. If you are not constantly changing out wounded planes you can get deplaned really easy. Hakryu isn’t in a much better situation she can make new plane fast as hell absolutely but the plane are made of tissue paper and not fast enough to avoid being in the large AA bubbles to long. All in all the legendary carriers are big dogs. But these bogs are flabby and missing most of their teeth.

[@SpartanElite43]

The difference is that all those ships have to put themselves in danger to get attacks off

[@toddkollar4166]

@@SpartanElite43 and they can easily defend themselves. You know the long range sniper players in FPS games same deal as carriers. Anyone gets close to a carrier what the odds it will survive? In hands of a decent player? zero. Well I guess carriers are just going to be the Brussels sprouts of this game some people love the some are revolted. Either way variety is the spice of life. I’m still going to play the game and watch your stuff. See ya on the seas Spartan

Good comment, playing a CV well is not easy and the Legendary Carriers are unimpressive. The only OP CV is Ark Royal and it’s going to be nerfed because of player base whinging.
