TRAINABLES: Minsk 101 | World of Warships: Legends

[@slickpelican]

To see the look on that Flint’s face when you show up 3km on his broadside. Very cool move!

[@metajerk]

Probably should have just fired, but yeah, from that range, Minsk will do some damage.

[@garrusvakarian3473]

Love the music, this really is a big show

[@metajerk]

Well technically this is trainables, a spin-off, but all the same staff 😏

[@trkgamingttv3953]

Nice video my friend !!! Not a Russian ships fan but will adapt this to my French DDs especially my Aigle seeing how she's a small cruiser as well

[@metajerk]

Really want Aigle since it too has slow turrets and good guns.

@@metajerk the AP pin is amazing I've Citadeled an Izmail at 4k range . And I've come to the conclusion that the middle of the izmail is loaded with high explosives .

Jesus Christ…..the General Lee horn. We need to petition WG’ming to install fiery ramps for destroyers to perform jumps….with that damn horn. Great….now I’m doing that goofy-ass Sheriff Roscoe laugh… thanks Jerk. 😜 PS…..that music sounds like Los Straitjackets..

[@metajerk]

One, red team needs to hear the blue teams horn. Two, general lee horn.

Your tips on playing Russian DDs as a 40 knot cruiser diverting enemy fire from my team has really upped my Gnevny game..Grinding the Russian line right now.. TY

Cheers! Annoy the heck out of them.

I had to look up an old syllabus from last semester for this one. Just doing some homework before Pan Asian Fushan drops next week. It’s essentially a repurposed Gnevny.

[@metajerk]

Oh thats right! I gotta say, I am looking forward to a new line all coming out at once and not in early access

Love it !

I’ll be a standing subscriber from now on, because I literally laughed my ass off. Speaking of the ‘80’s… If only Sam Kinison were still around and had his own WoW channel…..oh, the humanity.

Literally? Better go see the proctologist. 🍑

Hi Jerk (sorry, this is going to be long winded), can you do a Trainable on what to do when you spawn in the middle (B cap) and the ships that spawned with you, and those on the A cap, all go to C cap? This is happening a lot lately and I get destroyed trying to initially defend, then running. The entire team goes to one side, and I am getting frustrated on what I should be doing. Also, maybe a Trainable on what to do when you spawn on the end caps (and let say your spawn mates stay with you) but the entire other team goes to the cap you are on. These are very frustrating situations, and I am obviously not good enough to figure out what I should be doing. I play all ships, but have been Cruiser and BB heavy lately. It would be appreciated. Thanks, and LOVE the videos!!!

[@metajerk]

I can try, but those are pretty specific situations. More often than not, in those situations, I just try to pull off a stunt because that’s not a team I want to play with. But should something like that arise, then I will try.

[@mightymacgregor769]

I agree the soviet destroyers need a change of mindset to succeed. I think of them as the stealthiest most nimble cruisers on the map. Leningrad is a great upgrade of the Minsk because you can torp dd smoke and no one expects it. I try and keep concealment under 7km though otherwise positioning can be difficult I find. Khaba is great fun too running the cruiser commander on her.

[@metajerk]

If I wish upon a shooting star, the Leningrad will magically appear in my port somehow.

[@mightymacgregor769]

@@metajerk I picked it up on sale. I get more use of it now than blyskawica. Definitely still needs another destroyer with it though. Hard to fill the destroyer roles alone in it, so sometimes its a drawback taking up a destroyer spot on a spawn.

[@captainratelyo8019]

Great vid Mr. Jerk! I see you are using Trubeskoy. Ever considered using Al Baltimore and Luis Viobaguette as inspirations in russian destroyers?

[@metajerk]

Don’t have AL Baltimore which makes that quite easy, violette, thats extra HE damage? I have Gleaves on in this vid I think, but that’s just left over from my Current Khaba build.

[@captainratelyo8019]

@@metajerk Violette reduces the time you are spotted after you fire your main guns. Gleaves on Kabba? 🤓 I see what kind of experiment you are doing my friend. Go ahead and put Al Atago then use those super ninja torps 👀

[@metajerk]

@@captainratelyo8019 Haha I did have AL Atago on it at one point, but I realized the reaction time between 600 meters and 400 meters was nothing, but being able to not completely risk all my health and use them could be good.

hey was that Captain Geech and the Shrimp Shack Shooters?

[@metajerk]

Whoa, deep dive.. it is just some KZbin studio music that sounds similar though. I did a search for “spy”, which, in hindsight, I probably should e searched for “chase”, but it was the perfect length! TWSS

[@danielnwosu3971]

Me hearing the rush "Flint and exploit its smoke firing penalty manoeuvre" WRITE THAT DOWN, WRITE THAT DOWN!!! But for real I enjoyed the Podvosky, Gnevy is very meh hence why I don't have the Minsk but I heard the Trashcan is worth the painful grind

[@metajerk]

Gnevny was definitely the hardest for me, though playing it now, I'm not sure why.. however; Minsk was the first one where I got hackusations sent to me because of how many fires I lit, but Tashkent is totally worth it.. in my Top 3 T7 DD's

[@notthatproud7453]

What's your build here? Trubetskoy, for twist and track I can tell, but I can tell you're not using Sims, which a lot of people do for the extra health. I can do ok in these ships sometimes, but I'm really inconsistent in them. I find Khaba extremely frustrating.

[@metajerk]

Trubs with bey and I think I have Gleaves on? Not because I think it’s worth it, just that I didnt switch inspirations from my current Khaba build

I caught a flint in my benson. He got stuck and i took my sweet time killing him. 2 minutes to be exact. He sent me a very angry message. Lol. The video is so stupid lol

[@metajerk]

It’s one of the simple pleasures still in this game. Catching those light cruisers broadside in a destroyer and gunning them down… living the dream 😎
