[@chrissy8334]

hey Jingles, thx for featuring my video. going open on that Thunderer was more a "beeing a greedy idiot hunting his own damage record in DDs moment " then trying to win harder. cause i thought we won anyway even when i die. then i died and suddenly the schlieffen died too and i was like wtf. not earlier then this moment i realized there is a gearing missing and suddenly i knew how bad i fucked up. btw rewatch the video and look at excactly 11min 47sec what the health of our gamewinning Venezia was.

[@FeedbackLoop70]

222 HP 🙂

[@rukkzukk]

Holy smokes, didn't even realize the Venezia was almost dead

[@Persian-Immortal]

this battle should be a record. 1000 to enemies 999

[@noob4life1981]

Still wp, sir. Quite a good match!

[@kristoffermangila]

Well played pal, but this also should be a lesson: in such a situation, its better to be alive, because you can still influence the outcome of the game, especially a very tight game like this one. Had that second torpedo from the Gearing struck the Venezia, he would have sunk, and your team would have lost. Next time, play smarter.

[@ShockwaveTheLogical]

I hope that Venezia got a free drink after that 😂 Also that Gearing mustve been seriously good to be unseen for a whole game and still get 3 kills

[@andrewpulda7969]

No radar, no CV, no subs, limited hydro, DD player with a brain. = unspotted DD

[@niki8280]

That Venzia was down to 222 HP halfway through the ebattle!

[@herrvorragend882]

UU gearing is basically a better shimakaze, so you outspot everything. This and the fact that there were no radars made it a lot easier to remain unspotted (having a brain helps too, agreed)

[@herrvorragend882]

​​@@dbeerewoutNo, he doesnt. Its exactly that. Having a brain means, reading the map correctly thus knowing where the enemy ships (including the DDs) are. So he did that and he played around that

That Gearing deserves a medal! Getting 3 kills and remained undetected for the entire game. That's how your supposed to play destroyers! I'd of loved to have seen his replay.

​@@thedon9670impossible. The gearing was surely shooting from smoke

[@fendelphi]

@@thedon9670 Shooting from smoke or using islands to its advantage would allow it to remain undetected. However, the point is that it still was a major contributor while remaining undetected, firing guns or not.

The Venezia who won was reduced to 222hp at 11:46 when the enemy team decided he was somebody else's problem.

[@davidwhitfield6025]

Commiserations to the Gearing especially for playing such a ninja game - did he somehow turn into a submarine? The Yamato on the other hand didn't deserve to be on the winning side

[@delboy1727]

Apart from the Thunderer, the rest of the Gearing's team mates turned into submarines.

[@BawdyBadger]

The Yamato crying about the Thunderer. One salvo from him would have won it. Instead he was hiding in the islands.

"Meanwhile, the Yamato, that did nothing the entire game" oh well, that's historically accurate.

[@Ayeshteni]

I feel so sorry for the enemy gearing, top of his team and not spotted once. Poor sod.

[@virt1one]

Although this also means he wasn't "spending his HP" at all. There's a case to be made for his playing just slightly too passively. Never getting spotted only benefits YOU. It hurts your allies because the enemy can focus more of their shots (and attention) on your teammates. Nothing turns a turret faster than a destroyer getting spotted.

[@silkaverage]

[@joelmontgomery4837]

Lol. Jingles using the wrong HMAS Vampire in the thumbnail. Jingles moment once again XD

[@Ekergaard]

Destroyer videos are my favourite. Not playing the game, just watching videos, but after following Jingles for four years the naive part of me thinks I could have learned enough to play destroyers. Just like you can learn to solve the rubik's cube, or how to tie a tie, or to perform basic eye surgery via KZbin. Yeah, the last might not be true, but I have heard people who can tie a tie make a lot of money.

[@smilingpolitely12345]

Buddy if like watching videos you would like play game too , there is one very fun DD to play Paolo Emilio best yolo ship in game but sadly you need to unlock 3 T10 and do 3 regrinds to get enough RP to get her ... but there is also little Paolo Emilio Italian T7 destroyer FR25 have crawling smoke like paolo so is loot of fun , and dont cost so much,

[@nickierv13]

As a former DD driver, if you can do basic maths, you can DD: There are 2 circles, the range of your fish and then range they spot your boat. Keep the battleships between the 2. If they are speeding up, put green line ahead of gray line. If they are slowing down, put green line behind gray line. Okay, its a little more involved than that but that will get you started but should put you around a 60% player. Play with HP# not HP%. that plus a rough guess tells you how many fish need to hit, the more launchers you have the more you want to spread them out as you don't want them too clustered. And if you ever island drift a BB at 100%, full speed once your spotted and get under there guns but mind the arming distance. Give it a 2 count between launchers and just walk down the side. Not much can take a full salvo from most torpedo boats (bonus if its Russian BB vs Japanese torpedo boats) as long as you spread your shots.

[@connycontainer9459]

@@nickierv13 ..and if you play Loyang that range becomes very small - that's where the fun is though.

[@wombat4191]

@@nickierv13 That definitely doesn't make you a 60% player :D If you only pay attention to your targets, you're probably going to end up around ~48%.

[@richardplass8453]

I played DDs years ago (when the game was fun) specifically to hunt weekend wallet warriors who invariably drove their premium BBs to the edge of the map to wait out their match's endgame and "reappear" if they happened to be winning. Yes DDs are the best ships in the game, after the tier III St. Louis!

While karma means very little in this game, that Vinezia's should have skyrocketed after that game. Also it's a great Gearing player that knows how to stay undetected all game, never giving in to the urge to use their guns.

[@redfro4992]

you can use the guns in smoke easy when Red has no radar

As soon as Chrissy started open water gun boating against the Thunderer when they could of just won on points I just facepalmed. Never change DD captains, never change.

[@rphwww]

And hunt down the Gearing! 90% of the game he was doing great, but his 200k+ greed was blinding him from securing a win more wisely.

[@redfro4992]

@@rphwww yup, agree it was better to sandwich the gearing . DD got a fire on the thunderer and then kept shooting after he survived the first salvo. could have gone dark and attempted to land torps, kept thunderer spotted...

[@deaks25]

To be fair to Chrissy we've all been there; you're convinced the game is won and have forgotten about that one ship that's been unspotted for an age or never spotted at all and so can start gunning. And he'd worked plenty hard enough to cap and spot, even when being radared he still made an effort to play for the team. Trust me, it gets really frustrating for DD players when you're taking risks to spot and cap while most of your team camps safely behind islands racking up damage, so I think it's a little unfair to criticise the itchy trigger finger at the end. Personally, I'd probably have learned my lesson after the first Thunderer salvo and gone dark, because "ouch".

[@chrissy8334]

like i even said in the actuall gamechat, i havent realized there even was a Gearing. if i would have realized it earlier, i would have never opened up against a thunderer (but i only checked on the minimap and cause he was never spotted i could not see him there obviously). but cause we were leading in points AND caps, i thought f***** it either you kill him or he kills you BUT it will not make a differnece in the outcome of the game, cause even if i die, with 3min left in the game we will surpass them again in points. i just realized my mistake the moment Schlieffen and i died simoultanously

[@rphwww]

@@chrissy8334 then your choice was totally understandable and also recognizable! As a DD player (mostly) I recognize that you've to deal with a lot more information than other classes and you can't oversee it all!

[@heridfel]

Excellent video, and great commentary as always. I suspect hearing "don't try to win harder" as an object lesson over and over from Jingles has actually taught some players to be smarter. I was on a team recently that did win by NOT trying to win harder, and the last surviving enemy ship was furious that we just stayed hidden

[@QueueWithACapitalQ]

3:23 No, no its not jingles. His smoke screen is going which is probably why there were torpedos but the hydro isnt running

Nah, I knew who was gonna win after chrissy died. Because if his team lost after him "Winning harder" this would have been a "Game of Throws" episode.

Actually Jingles, Vampire II hydro is 5km and Thunderer has normal heal :)

[@dany1441]

Well, Thunderer's heal is not Conquerors's heal but it's a lot better than standard. It comes off cooldown quicker and heals back a better percentage and also more AP damage. So it's really quite a lot better than standard.
