Battle cruisers are just sub types of battleships they are sisters in battleships in a biological and Step sibling like way it makes sense to put a battleship icon a battlecruiser icon doesnt make sense to create since it will be the cruiser icon

[@Daishi18]

@@Yuudachi-Ch Originally, the Battlecruiser concept revolved around a big fast cruiser with battleship armament, which role was to hunt and destroy other cruisers while being fast enough to run away from anything that could outgun it. So... Both by design and concept, they are more directly part of the cruiser familly.

3:49 You sir, are a man of high culture. For comedy, IJN casemate secondaries have improved accuracy that the later Massachusetts copied years later. So those casemate mounted 140mm guns on Amagi are quite accurate. The problem is you have standard secondaries range and the 140s reload pretty slow. IJN BBs also used to fire AP shells from their secondaries too when the game launched in 2015.

I mean, amagi as a gorilla brawler is goddamn annoying even since forgotten era where she has AP secondaries She has one of the highest torpedo protection in the game (43% is not a goddamn joke, ask yamato), stupid armor scheme that can bounce 460mm, forgiving citadel that can only get cit in long range, fast secondaries even without skill, and she still have one of the heaviest salvo in tier 8, 10 410mm gun is not something to laugh at. Sure her AA is lackluster and don't have torps, but that doesn't mean anything if they died first from your bulshit or you live long enough to laugh at them who can't kill one of the oldest ship in the game

[@ryanbrochu3336]

I wouldn't hold your breath on that one. In the WarGambling/Lesta divorce, Lesta got the real prize, Art Department. Which means over at WarGambling, the best they can do for the most part is copy-pasting.

[@BPKPhoenix]

One thing I've always loved about the Amagi is how sometimes deceptive its visual dispersion is. I've fired shots that look like chop suey, look away saying "that aint hittin' shit" and see 3 citadels a few seconds later and I'm dumbfounded. She's deceptively tough, she's gorgeous to the eyes, 10 boomsticks, kinda nimble and you just can't have a really bad day in the ship. If anything, had a bad day? Go Amagi! Also, would be nice to see Manual Secondaries getting a rework. Its like switching to your alternate weapons but you can genuinely AIM the secondaries. Remember when Amagi had AP Secondaries? Now imagine sailing up to a teenage boat, who has no torpedoes and an ez citadel.

[@Liaholana]

Really want that ap secondary back😢

[@Nightmare_52]

Still remember years back when my secondaries citadelled 2 cruisers for me while I was focused on another enemy, good times, ofcourse they were horrible against everything else except perfectly broadside cruisers but it was a fun novelty

[@OOZ662]

I have an ancient clip on this channel of Nagato's AP secondaries absolutely chainsawing a Nicholas for 100% of its health in three salvos, no detonation. If it were reality, only the first one or two shells of each burst would have done damage as the rest just passed through the same hole. I miss those days, yet at the same time: not everything is penetrable, but everything burns.

[@nighthawkf1174]

Man AP secondaries were awesome. Had a brawl with my Yamato, guy in a Moskva came by me at 3km. The 2 AP 6 inch secondaries gave him what for. 6 shells, 30k damage. I did the math, literally got hit by 6 citadels from secondaries. I was dealing with a battleship and didn’t even know what happened until I turned to deal with the cruiser, and he was already dead

[@F.R.E.D.D2986]

5:49 Actually reminds me of one game i had as Nagato or Amagi. There was a light cruiser, I spotted it and so did the team. Because i was behhind an island and so was the cruiser, i fired a broadside, as a cheap way to get damage without getting detected. Two citadel hits, devastatinbg strike, one penetration, and the light cruiser was no more. Everyone just kind of looked and went, 'yep, thats rng for you.' The light cruiser just said wow and i was left dumbfounded

[@OOZ662]

I played a clan battle in my Yamato _ages_ ago where I hit three citadels on a 100% bow-on Yamato from the other side of the universe with the opening salvo. Cue their scoffing at the effects of my legendary upgrade...that I could never be bothered to grind for and still don't possess today. RNG does what it wants.

[@stephenmarshall3771]

Solid advice as a player with over a million free xp with Amagi.. Use that extra armor in the stern like 80% of time and I mean it. Make enemies look like you're retreating, and I can advise you one thing. Never chase a retreating amagi, ever.

Thank you for showing Amagi some love. I'm an Amagi main. She will forever be my favourite ship. Amagi best fox :3 There's something to be said for taking brisk on Amagi... 34.8knot Techtree "Battleship" is such a meme XD Tbh there was a point in time where I got too angry with WG (and my crap internet/potato laptop) so I quit the game for over a year to cool off. While away, I realised the one thing I enjoyed most and had the best memories of was playing Amagi. For some context, I started playing back in november 2017 (pre-CV rework). She is and always has been my favourite ship. So after coming back, I mostly played Amagi until I started enjoying other ships again. She's still my most played ship as of february 2024 at 391 battles and 65% winrate ❤❤❤ May she never die

Yuro, this channel has been a fantastic stumble for me as a new player. Thanks for these great videos.. A mixture of coaching with hilarity makes things much more memorable and easier to remember.. For example.. I was told the Ragnarok is a better shooting Amagi so I found your video - and have had surprising success harassing enemies and being more confident in my ship and what I need to do as a BB, now I almost must buy it cause Ive done so well on it with the 10 games, haha...

[@antgonzo864]

I think the way you show people how to play the game is quite unique and to be honest the community of newer players I think would appreciate this exciting approach to what many people would say to a boring game. The comments you spoke about toward the end about the state of the game and your views on it - even as a new player with 300 hours in 4 weeks I can totally understand and agree with what you are talking about. And I have been told that since there are so few youtubers for this game, some of them have changed the meta in how people play (favoring certain ships and the HE/AP meta, etc..) over the years. So for you to try and steer things in a better direction without even trying as hard as others I believe will make a great impact in the long run for the players who agree with you. Your approach was subtle and meaningful enough for me to make a comment about it. Keep up the great work, and these videos you make are just so damn great, even the graphics :) dont change

[@SoarinYoshi64]

Amagi is definitely my OG favorite battleceuiser and the first ship I dedicated time making a skin for. I reset the tree and grind it again and enjoyed it to the fullest. It does feel like an obsolete balanced ship to me, but the shells have some hilarious citadel hits most of the time.

Amagi dispersion is real. I remember back in closed beta I fired a broadside at an enemy Amagi and my 10 shells landed perfectly on him. It looked like they flew in an Amagi shaped pattern.
