World of Warships - Use Your Head! Improve Win Rate

[@BuriBuster]

I think that we have three big issues here: 1. game economics clarity - you pay ALL the expenses upfront (service cost, consumables) and it doesn't matter if you die or not. Game does not communicate this clearly and lot of people just want to save money to grind next ship, not realising this. 2. games heavy emphasis on kills - wows rewards you very well for damage and kills, but those are just means to an end, not the actuall objective. You see all those krakens and high calibres, but they dont matter if that damage is not placed on correct ships. 3. game rewards you based on your personal achievements in the game instead of on winning - this is kindof two edged sword, but i really liked how in ranked you are rewarded for win regardless of how much damage you do or enemies kill. It rewards you for what it all shoud be about, winning. Bonus point: missions - I dont care if i can win, but I can finally get that (insert mission name here) done! Doesnt help either

[@denovemportem]

So... basically my team wins or loses just because of ME.... What about the other 11 guys?????

[@medvidekmisa]

if all 12 thinks this way...thats 100% lose...he talks about your decisions not others...if half of team dies (normal day) well...they made bad decisions...so all team have to improve decision making and you have bigger chance to win

[@theicephoenix]

jajajajajajajajaja in all the videos LoL

[@jaek_898]

Wish WTR reflected skill. Im an excellent destroyer player but cant get unicum stats because i worry more about caps and other destroyers than battleships for damage farm.

[@MrBosco109]

Its hard to improve your win rate when the entire game gives rewards for damage and none for team play, ie... spotting, tanking, etc. There are way to many players sitting on the edges farming damage to get confederate, high caliber, Kracken, ect and don't care about the win. I would like to see wargaming issue rewards for positive reinforcement gameplay as a team for the win. In my opinion, that will increase your win rates. I still enjoy your videos, keep them coming, but I have to politely disagree with some of your video this time.

[@MadMinuteMan]

It's hard to improve win rate when your team is made up entirely of vegetables too.

[@sacer666]

Really good video. Something I have noticed alot when playing , is the lack of situational awareness and vision of how the battle is gonna unfold in the next 5 min. I am not sure that many players even realise that there is a minimap in the bottom right corner.

[@Yuki_Ika7]

my main problem in wows is i often times charge ahead and/or sail out too far, i need to work out when to go in, when not to, when my team needs me to, etc.

[@BNSF1848]

Great video!! This is why I record some of my battles, then I can re watch for any mistakes that I’ve made, then I can improve upon said mistake

[@Straswa]

Nice vid Ichase. Learned a bit.

[@oldgrumpy2584]

not much you can do with a fail team

[@babyhuey6342]

Everyone gets fail teams. The better players get more wins out of their fail teams.

[@PropaneWP]

Everyone gets fail teams, but you can lessen the rate of them by carefully deciding when to play. If you avoid playing at certain times (like the weekends) you will encounter a lot less fail teams. Some might say that it doesn't matter because it's a 50/50 chance of ending up on the worse team, but that's wrong. The truth is that if you avoid playing at times when there's a high chance of fail teams, you will have more evenly matched combat - which gives you more time to influence the game in your favor. When half your team decides to rush in and die because they're unskilled, it doesn't matter how good you are. The question is, do you want to severely limit the times you can play in order to improve your win rate? If the answer is yes, then you know what to do.

[@graysongreydeathcarlyle]

Propane, the question is not about the winrate with these teans. Ir's more about the frustration and when you don't have all the time everyday to chose from it's sad to have a shitty game experience due to an abundance of these moronic teams.

[@PropaneWP]

I absolutely agree. It's very frustrating and respect that iChase is making an effort to inform people how to play properly. I'm just saying that there are other factors to consider than just playing well personally. Sad but true.

[@MrJohnnyb74]

Yep, I've been playing WoWs a long time. The other day, I had 12/15 losses or similar while I was getting top 5 finishes in the Gaede. The GAEDE.

[@hansheden]

Talked to this guy a while back. He doesn't play WoWs but do play WoT, but he's getting tired of it. I sold in WoWs by highlighting that it's a thinking mans game. Just like you point out in this vid. He might give it a try he said.

[@TK-fk4po]

When there are multiple ships in a cap, how do you know which one to reset?

[@superkang7448]

As a cruiser player, I tend to play fairly aggressively. When I'm on a losing streak, I change things up a bit. I'll follow the DD to the cap and give a little cover. If we can hold it, fine. But as soon as we get seriously pressured, I disengage and head over to the lemming train. As it's getting wiped, there's plenty of low health targets to finish off and sometimes you can even swing the game. Got 3 krakens yesterday after starting off the day horrifically almost to the point of quitting.

[@tuunaes]

What was that Independence doing suiciding in center? Did he feed his planes to only strong AA ship in enemy team?

[@rngesusrandomicus1409]

I was proud of my 54.9% WR... until now. Nice vid btw. Good to see more of your contents.

[@NickySRT]

55% is still decent if your a solo player

[@neilharbott8394]

Win rate is not something that is entirely on you. It's entirely possible to have a game with 100K+ damage, confederate, kraken, etc and still end up on a 1v6 end game.

[@Warmaker01]

There's Damage Farming and there's meaningful damage. Is the damage you did just a bunch of Fire damage on Battleships that would heal that stuff back anyways? That's meaningless damage, the type to pad stats. Then there are the guys in for example, that play a high tier Cruiser or Battleship, but only do 45k damage, yet top out in the XP, score for their team... Because they played the objectives and just as importantly... smacked Destroyers around. Something like Montana logging 45k damage is awful. But if 20k of that damage was against Destroyers, he did a lot of good for the team, and it will actually show in his score.

[@the_skippr6066]

Neil Harbott I've had games with 5 kills and 200k damage in the z52 and lost, it happens but usually if you're getting games like that you can pull off a win. Usually if your base xp is higher than their top 3 xp scorers you can say you did everything right and your team threw the game

[@pr0skis]

Spoken like a true scrublord potato. It's kills that matters. do 20k damage to a Gearing... the only thing that does is decrease the Gearing's torp reload. What matters and area denial and kills. Area denial = damage farming until the enemy gives up their positions/push - im talking about cruiser play obviously.

[@the_skippr6066]

if youre wtr for the game is over 1800 you can pretty safely say the loss wasnt your fault

[@cyruslupercal9493]

I think a good player can swing the game and it shows but after reaching 55-56% winrate, it gets harder to improve, becaue you are only one player and sometimes the team just sucks. A solo player is at the mercy of the team. To pad winrate team up with equaly good players.

[@jamessego6660]

I m on the app on my iPhone. How do I get the graphics and abilities to change settings as has been recommended. I can't download the app of wow on my iPad. Do I need a laptop?

[@MrBuddyman1]

I've seen some seriously bad teams. I hope more people watch this video so they at least think about what their plan is BEFORE they do it. I had a game where I killed 8 ships, my Div mate killed 2 ships, the rest of my team (let's do the math: 12-10=2 ships left) could not kill two ships (5v1 x2), who ended up killing me, to end the game. Good points here iChase, esp the point of going after the DD to reset the Cap, instead of a possible kill shot on a near dead BB, think about winning, not taking the easy route, playing for the team. Good Stuff.

[@Gamer-zn2oc]

I think we need more videos like this one where you explain us how to play the game.

[@vecioalpin8998]

Ichase can do all video! reality is majority of players DO NOT DEVOLVE time for looking at this video. Reason: lack of interest, not care enough about how they perform OR if you play on EU server many simply CANNOT understand english.

[@cylonred8902]

The biggest issue to not having a high WR is 2 things - time and being good at strategy. Most of the player base does not have the time to memorize the ships, armor layout, guns, gun layout, speeds, torps vs no torps not to mention speed/distance of the torps. Then there are the captain skills and flags. I am lousy at remembering the deep details of things in general and having kids and a professional job means I have little hope of memorizing enough. Unfortunately - I lack strategy sense as well. If I could pause the game then it could be better for me to think things thru but since that can't happen... I watch replays and wonder how the folks know where ships are that are unseen or know where the ships should go if on the other side. It would help if I could have a bigger minimap but I need a new monitor for that and a new video card. With video card prices being insane - neither item is in the works. Before anyone decides to get on my case - I have never complained that my WR is 50% - 52%. I have a better WR in some ships than others. I am not super happy it is 50% but it is what it is. I can have a great game where everything works out to lousy games where nothing works. The majority of the player base are players who are casual players like most other games. Those that have the time and the memory need to remember this before complaining that not everyone is unicum.

[@thomasofnone99]

You're right, that DD player at the end in the G. Madah has an overall win rate of 47% and personal rating (PR) of 749 which is rated "Bad" on WOWS Numbers NA. His (or her) PR rating in DD's is 550. I know stats don't mean everything, but iChase said "I'll be willing to wager..." and that's a bet you don't want to take vs. iChase =) Cheers and thanks for the vid.

[@handbannana3610]

I had a Zao on my team the other day who was on full health in the last 5 minutes of the match with only 2 ships vs. the enemy 3 we were down on points and caps. He refused to help the N. Carolina who was pushing a cap and fighting a BB and two DDs. The Zao sat undetected until the N.Carolina was nuked by torps and then started turning away. The whole team was screaming at him in chat and he replied that he turned away because he was detected. I don't normally check player stats but I was curious. This guy averaged 90k damage per game with a 37% win rate. Blew my mind that someone who deals that much damage had zero effect on his team, I average 51k in my Baltimore and have a 64% win rate in that ship.

[@kaleiohulee6693]

I think their Fubuki went tunnel vision on your CV which was charging the enemy cap for some reason and that's why he didn't just go for the cap. That CV is the part of this game I wasn't able to figure out yet. Two DDs can hold back a whole team of BBs with just the threat of torping. These are the games I'm used to seeing, a contest of which team will screw up a little less.

[@ussxrequin]

I love the pretty guitar at the end.

[@paulbaker9687]

So , what do you do when your'e almost always in the top 4 points wise in games , try and work to help your team win and they just sit and get surrounded or all leeroy and lose most of the time?

[@ledgeri]

To me the key to improve winrate is to forget it in the first place, and enjoy the game, and work on all objectives, and try to be on the top of the scoreboad... Worlked!

[@lubossoltes321]

this a wise person :-)

[@ledgeri]

My latest big improvememnt: www.wows.hu/media/kunena/attachments/438/Final.png During the Duke of York missions Lucky Days: that was 0.3% increase over 6500 battles... Lucky, but i worked on it: Check my "if WG wants" video!

[@sc3639]

I would be curious to know if other peoples win rate improve over the weekend or get worse. During the weekdays I sit at around 55-65% win rate and during the weekend I sit anywhere from 40-50%. I play the same ships in the same manner I think. Is this just me or do other people experience this as well?

[@Ganderco]

I LOVE THAT INTRO MUSIC! Please reply, tell me where to get that music! Thank You!!! PS: I discovered wows 2 months ago and have been watching your videos nearly every day since then!

[@randomguy-tg7ok]

I have a WR of somewhere about 54% over slightly less than 2000 games. How? I learned the game and know what to do.

[@Ganderco]

One of the most amazing secrets to improve your game-play: Watch your own replays, you will see easy simple mistakes that you don't notice while in the heat of the game...I mean battle. Peace!

[@edhikurniawan]

The problem is, i wonder if those people even watch youtube. Or even they understand english. Once i had a game with enemies Fiji behind the island, Cleve at a smoke, Mahan who gave the smoke, and Fubuki spotting for Fiji. I could clearly saw those at my map. A random guy using Bismarck at my team suddenly charging in at the middle of crossfire of those 4 ships, he ate Fubuki's torp, AP'ed by Fiji, and burned by Cleveland plus Mahan. It ends quickly, i tried to smoke him but he had already critical and die. It is not like he would be using my smoke anyway, he sailed at top speed to the very end, and keep firing. I end up in a place where i could send torp to the island camper Fiji, sent good torps, and killed Fiji. But Fubuki spotted me afterwards and i die. This Fubuki was the very reason why i didn't just rush Fiji. I managed to snuck in thanks to their focus to the said Bismarck. The dead Bismarck player just complaint "DD spot please". OMG. 3 other ships from my team also went down following the charge, while we only killed 1. So it was 5 vs 4, end up with 0 vs 3. When i said "I saw 4-5 ships camped there and you can't just eat their ambush", he later just talking boxes... Chinese? idk. Im not sure we're talking here has any effect for them because of that ? In Asia it is simple to determine your team good is not. Wait 1 minute, any friendly collision ? Wait for 2 minutes after the game start, 2 AFKs ? Special for two brothers map, if you see any of your team not going middle during the 3 first minutes, the chance to win rose a bit. Ok, i saw Yorck trying to bowtank Lyon at 9 km. He did good job to delay his destruction. I appreciate that, i was the Lyon. That kind of service is somewhat calmed my previous rage. I actively using the karma/report-compliment button, it is useful for win rate instead talking too much at the chat, which have a chance is going nowhere. Just one per person, sending two is not good for long term economy. Sending one report to a person means i don't want that person to be mixed to my team at the next round, also vice versa for the compliment.

[@ThePostie501]

I've had numerous games tonight where the dd's either were AFK or just didn't go for the objectives and spot.Most ended up losses, so I gave up.

[@Sean-xu5ti]

Edhi Kurniawan what makes you think that the karma button does anything at all? Or the complaint button. Can you show me anywhere WG confirmed your usage of the buttons. Please show me anything that you said works and I’ll do it also. But I think you are very, very wrong. Please show me their words. Thanks.

[@edhikurniawan]

Sean K From my observation, the people ive sent report only had very little chance to get mixed into my next team, unless the number of player is low. Like if ive gone into 3-5 minutes queue. First of all, why you would wait for WG confirmation ?

[@armastat]

When the Alsaise was backing up from behind the island you said you didn't know what he was thinking? well what were you thinking at the time?, cause at the time you were doing the EXACT same thing from his point of view - you were backing up into view because the guy in front was rushing you. lol I also noticed that when u were talking about turning away and when to do it, you mentioned you were also going to keep fighting.. I didn't see you fire on a single target while doing all that, not even the DD that beached himself Tip, Even while running away SHOOT until they will lose sight of you.

[@johnl.5041]

Well not all players are aiming to win. Some are going for most damage possible and that's frustrating

[@mitchellalexander8508]

"You're not going to crash into me pussy" The trash talk is the best part of this game

[@Shadx27]

Ug, that reminds me of a match that I had to scream at my team's Kidd to run and hide and not try to take on three enemy bb's that could entrap him (one a Missouri). We won with him having 45 hp left and shells on their way... (He didn't listen and we were very lucky)

[@8RedBear5]

I was once a 48% WR WoWs player but after learning the game and how to play the game I clawed my way to being a 60% WR player. It isn't easy but it can be done.

[@nottoday3817]

Hello, Chase. If you are talking about making winning decisions, would you be interested in looking at one of my Iron Duke replays? It was basically my Iron Duke and an Aigle vs 5 ships at one moment. 3 Destroyers, 1 Battleship and one cruiser Enemy held cap advantage and was flanking us from all sides. Not that I am just bragging, but I believe it would make a decent example

[@fwootamala]

Chase, in your Normandie game you are giving the reds far too much credit. That didn't look like a "Lets make a line and push east together" team strategy. That looks like all the BBs just lemming trained straight north from wherever they had spawned. It looked strong for about 5 minutes, then it becomes obvious it was just a unplanned gaggle that accidentally worked for a while.

[@grumpasalty3859]

I don't really care about my stats, I just came to World of Warships to have "fun and engaging gameplay" I literally blocked my stats because I know I suck and I'm willing to accept that, I mean I'll try my hardest and I will actually put effort into my performance but really at the end of the day this game is going to crap so I'm just trying to enjoy it while it lasts... And to anyone who doesn't know what I mean saying "this game is going to crap" let me bring up a few examples, French cruisers; paper thin, can't be citadeled, super fast, battleship range at higher tiers... British Battleships, stealthy, relatively fast, huge fire chance, they spam nothing but HE because of it, super heal which just denies you the kill, a division of 3 Conquerors wins every game if they push together... Believe me I've tried it.... Battleship dispersion is horrible except for some nations... Carrier players always complain that their not powerful enough when I watched a video of a Midway doing over 400,000 damage in a random battle... DD's complain about radar; get used to it because it doesn't last forever and we complain about your torpedoes which depending on what nation you go down have the potential to do 23,000 damage each and can't be spotted until it's too bloody late... And that's just a few examples there are plenty more but this comment is getting far too long, so I'll leave them for another time.

[@ThePzrLdr]

I agree. Stats are pointless unless you have an ego problem. Games are for fun and relaxation.

[@yorkng5029]

how to block personal stats??

[@j.chiari]

It matters to win and get the XP bonus when you win for the first time in the day

[@armastat]

Grumpa Salty .. So what your saying is that the ships in game are very close to their real world counterparts of the time? Cool

[@the_skippr6066]

Another easy way to boost your wr is to play ships that can solo win and carry, ie dds, t10 z52 gearing yuyang, cas Des, hindy, some zao, Cleveland, aki. Basically good ships and have the ability to actually carry, I'd argue dds and cvs are the best since you can solo win most games if you're good.

You can have bad WTR games in DD because the winning move decides the game very early on, but then you have no chance to farm the BBs who spawn camps and blames their own DDs. Same can be said for "tactical" radar positioning.

I use my head often...to bang it on the keyboard after another horrible game with a team mostly composed out of potatoes. I really wonder at times how the hell some of those guys reached tier 10

[@miskatonic6210]

There's a lot of factors influencing winrate that show it doesn't mean anything. It's influenced by when you play, on what server you play, if you play in teams, if you play OP premium ships, if you try to do tasks at all, if you try to help others, if you try to unlock many ships or just play one ship all the time or on which tier you play, if you use bots, how many games you can play in a row, on your ping...and so on... Whoever thinks winrate means anything is a moron. If you want a high win rate just play Tier 2 with friends all your life. Tier 10 is for noobs.

[@Xander3509]

Excellent video but you got rid of my favourite music at the end!!! Damn it man!!

[@pauln2661]

Good luck ..... My losses are usually from people staying in the spawn and hiding behind islands..... The team just dies in 1 vs 4 or 1 vs 8 take downs by the other team that works together and focus fires down targets.

[@sinceRENEss]

Decisions depend on knowledge and it is not enough to just understand the mechanics. For example the trajectory of your shells and as a result the kill and immunity zones, also the penetration power of your shells, normalization, thickness and layout of enemy ships armor.. those are mostly things the game won't tell you and in game not at all. As a DD main I'm very often shocked when I play der große with stock guns how pitiful the dmg on broadsides is.. doesn't matter if midship, superstructure or armor belt.. I even get shatters on dds ?! In comparison the Missouri does get the most ridiculous salvos out.

[@theicephoenix]

I'm not a bad player in my own right. With a 53.64% WR I have some skill in the game, but I'm primarily a Cruiser driver, and my play style isn't exactly one to carry the team if shit goes south faster than IJN torpedoes.

[@nicholaslau3194]

Instructions unclear. Can't move my ship just by using my head

[@TheMouseMasterYT]

"I'm stuck at 55% winrate". That's a good winrate. Don't forget, for every person with a 55% WR, there's another guy (mathematically) who has played the same # of games as you, with a 45% WR. I mean, it goes without saying that (some) people want to get better, but don't forget that one of the caveats is that you actually have to get better than your opposition, not just better than some arbitrary value. 10:30 I agree you derped, but not because you "stole the mahan's damage" and should have fired at the "more angled battleship". It's because you fired at all; from your perspective, it'd be very difficult to tell which of those 2 BB the torps were aimed at (or if he fired 1 spread at both), so instead of trying to fire at the other one, wait for impact, then aim for the remaining target. Also, while I highly doubt that "Player_whateverthenumberwas" did it intentionally, but the #1 way to improve your WR in a game with a carrier is knowing when NOT go go after him. ;p I don't blame the Gaede at the end. His thought process was probably "As long as we can get 1 reset in our cap, then we will win by capping". He was basically trusting you to, even if you died to a torpedo volley, just getting 1 shell on target on the DD (your friendly Scharn could have reset the BB's counters after that... assuming he stopped island-hiding)

[@Brimestar]

But what about when you’re on a team with a bunch of poor decision makers?

[@JohnAnonym]

Simple: Pray to MM gods that you have a Team who does as following: 1. Communicate: I have been on the edge of flipping tables when I'm asking what is the plan on domination mode. A-b? B-c? Etc. Way to often have I experience that the we agree about A-B, just to see when I arrive that the team has changed their mind and went after B-C instead. Or even worse; They don't say anything in the chat, meaning you have to read the map and hope you team isn't from the "spechal class" and camp at our spawn. 2. Engage: When I see that the team is sitting OUTSIDE the cap, doing nothing except from seeing their team DD getting taken out... Yeah, your gonna lose. When you, as a BB, have to take charge and push into the cap, praying to the gods that those camping outside(This incl. CL, BB and, if they are Russian, DD) take the HINT. That maybe, just maybe, that we are DOWN 2 caps, The enemy are pushing from BEHIND, you SHOULD PUSH TO SECURE THE THIRD CAP. 3.Know what they are doing: This is self explenetory, but for those who are not following in class; Know your ship, Know what's it's strength is and It's weakness. Support your team and hope they do the same for you. After all, it's a team based game.

I am not normally a player who can carry a team to victory. I play the objectves, support my team, but consider the winrate is pure luck, if you are not one of the few exeptional good players or often in good divisions.

I know, boring work after a match but worth every second. The funniest stat I had was the number of actual fires / HE hits. After nearly 1000 hits (excl. Shatt etc) my 6% dd had a REAL fire chance of...2.41%. Other interesting stat: when my WR in my favorite BB made a free fall from 71% to 58%, I started a new spreadsheet, to analyse the average xp and wr of the two teams. Every time we got blown out of the water, there was (up to) a 7 % difference between the teams. Too many matches are won or lost before the first shot is fired. So, ichase, explain us how not to show too much broadside Lmao.

[@imperator_danny]

Nice Normandie play.

[@Warmaker01]

The NC& DD were 48% and 47% WR guys respectively. They played to their average and it showed in their decision-making. The Alsace is a 54% WR guy and made just as bad a series of decisions you could make at the end. I'd like to think him trying to get cute at the end by getting away with extra damage AND a kill, trying to get greedy, cost his team. You can rant about the DD not running but his decision-making was true to his WR%. That Alsace really should have known better. I'm also thinking he expected NC and the DD to hold their end and finish the win. But that's the problem with Randoms, Non-Division-mates. You don't know their quality. If you throw your ship away "because you're going to win anyways" and leave it to a bunch of people that you don't know their skill, that's when you leave the window open for silly comeback wins like this. You could be leaving the match in the hands of potatoes. The end result is this kind of match iChase uploaded.

[@Ben_Dust]

dont play t8 and above, another instant improvement

[@superkang7448]

Tier 6 is best imo. High enough level that it's fun but you're still able to maneuver and not get instantly deleted. Fewer gimmicks too which is nice.

[@Ben_Dust]

Super Kang I agree. T7 is not too bad. I have fun even in the pepsi. But t8 is a noticeable change in gameplay style and the boring grind really starts.

[@vecioalpin8998]

The problem at T8 and above is that the game introduce a lot of new challanges. RADAR, low concealment DD with long range torps, etc etc. So naturally the game is less forgiving. And thats particularly evident for cruisers. That's why people tend to be more careful . And it is at this stage teamplay is a MUST.

[@cadengrace5466]

I hate to agree with you, but that is so true. The dynamics of the game and the players on both sides shift to such a degree it is more about paying to win - so much premium equipment from ships to camo to modules and players not very interested in any team interaction unless they are grouped up. The lower tiers are still keystone kops and head shaking mistakes. But, in the mid tiers - 5, 6 & 7 form the Goldilocks zone. Tiers 4 and 8 can occasionally be fun never on the weekend. Since I have been hovering in the mid tier, my win rate has vastly improved but more importantly, I can't wait to play when I get home from work and enjoy every minute of it.

[@shoukatsukai]

T6 in my experience is one of the worst tiers because it's always an uptier, but t7s usually means your hightier.

[@airglide2]

“Had the Minsk been around this Island,” See, I would have never thought of that. I mean it’s a great idea, I thought you were gonna say, “He should be at the edge of the cap instead of the center”. But in my mind I would have thought of maneuverability. Sure, I may take out that BB, however now I’m more than likely beached and because everyone knows what I look like, they’ll probably take advantage of that. Also the BB’s secondaries would have just reset my capture points.

[@jeremyjean13]

He was in a smoke at the centre, though. He could have deployed his smoke closer to the island

[@airglide2]

Jérémy Jean Well what are the odds that the BB would have charged the smoke? High.

[@jeremyjean13]

still minsk has high damage torps with decent speed. He could one shot Chase easily.

[@airglide2]

Jérémy Jean Correct but again, Chases secondaries would have reset the cap, or he’d just shoot him. The enemy team was NOT in a position to lose cap points especially not that close to victory.

[@jeremyjean13]

Chase's secondaries can't shoot him in smoke undetected. He just had to stay more than 2km away and Chase's BB was spotted so the DD could have easily done that.

[@thomasoneill9940]

WHAT!?!?!!? BB drivers went behind an island taking their guns out of the fight?!?!?!?!? that almost never happens every freaking random battle...

[@Testacabeza]

I am happy at 52%, it took me three months of hard work to get here and is still no good?

[@miskatonic6210]

Testacabeza Funny how you work hard for a win rate when you could work hard and earn some thousand bucks *lol*

[@Testacabeza]

What?

[@joshuarewerts8566]

Two Brothers map....sank a BB in the channel with one torp and 159 main gun hits...with my Benson lol

[@bullreeves1109]

Let’s See if this is a another Great Ichase Video! Edit: It was a good video =3 Now I will say as a random side note, I think the Alsace is to strong, Edit: Like Seriously! 12 Guns they are Only 1 inch smaller hen the others, and honestly those French 15inch Guns seem to perform Just as well as all the 16Inch Guns if not better then a lot of them, They are only worse when fighting a Angled Us or German Cruiser, in witch then it just switches to its 12 Gun HE, Not to mention because of the lait Meta It has a Below water citadel with Spaced armor... There has been At least 6 times where I had gotten into a Brawl with the Republic and Alsace in my Montana where they where 100% Broad side and I would not Even get 10K on them with all 12 shells... The. With there Faster reload and high Pen guns they proceed to Take over Half my health before I could turn in or out to angle, Hell Republic can shoot my side 2 times in the time it takes to turn.

[@knesrevi]

Admiral Reeves I dont have a problem with the Republic but fuck the alsace. The only thing that can redeem it is if it has secondaries that can get knocked out easily because it literally has a Gneisenau on each side! And really strong AA + high speed and health.

[@Jackice]

BTW Fabuki when south because "me me me me me me" they saw CV at 11:50

[@Abed1984]

CV showed up and you ate the bait?

[@GearheadK20C4]

Chase, please make more tech tree overview videos!

[@MrBuddyman1]

Good advise

[@rodomann]

Lovely ending song xD

[@sc3639]

WMB 55%, Pilot 49%, Mersia 54%, and jjlove 47%. So two where pretty good in my books but just playing sloppy. That DD was just bad though. See those throws all the time especially this past ranked season lol I am Basemastar NA server.

[@grumpyoldvet6569]

Command: Modern Air/Naval Operations perhaps?

[@the_skippr6066]

I'm gonna assume that for overall my wr will take a while to actually get over 60% I'm only at 56% rn but 6k games means that's a while. Comes from playing "for fun" which is a sin for all unicums out there.

[@DubyaD04]

In theory, you are correct. However, you fail to take into account that your WR can improve IF the entire team does the exact same thing. PuG play is notoriously bad in this regard. Most playing are just there to derp and pew pew. Winning is the furthest thing from their minds. There are far to many variables involved here that no single player has control over. You can do everything perfect and still end up tanking your WR because the team itself fails to do a modicum of what it takes to ensure a victory. Majority of players are more concerned about their own stats than helping the team achieve the victory. There is no incentive for unifying teams to achieve the objectives and win collectively. That is the fault of WG for not having the forethought and proactive designs in place to make that happen.

[@lizliz7398]

Need to show average placement as a stat.

[@ag4allgood]

Win rate seems so reliant on the MM. It would really be nice to see the players Win Rate along with the Number of games played at the start of games ( Random ) so everybody sees how good the MM IS !!!! I think WG would do better because the games would be closer. More people would enjoy better games. I've been in too many games where one side or the other has 9 or 10 ships left at the end of the game.

[@cobrazax]

donskoi should have turned and ran...BUT ONLY when the BB was reloading LOL

[@dgoeloe]

Best Independence ever!

[@oldgrumpy2584]

ok i consider teams are "failed" after the battle not before because you can`t see into the future,,well at least i can`t lol

[@Schaneification]

Win Rate use PTW Clan Division job done . You do understand what RANDOM means ? and the map should have end but the North Mexico camped out side their cap half the map .

[@jaek_898]

The chat at 4:15 is ironic for this video

[@_lumiaart_2010]

And of course having 35 ping I chase really would help. As it is I have 1500 ping or worse and still get 100k damage and push my objectives . sadly I get smoked after every body ess runs for the hills 😃

[@anderskorsback4104]

"How do I improve my winrate?" without providing context has to be the stupidest question to ask. There's literally a hundred things you could be doing wrong or not as well as possible, and there is no way to tell which it is from just the question. It's literally the question equivalent of "git gud".

[@CyanLink]

LOL I don't think there's much you can do when your team are idiots. Yesterday I was playing in my Harekaze and had a guy on my team yelling at me because I refused to get into a fight with a Khabarovsk. Same guy then tried to insist that I rush a cap with a Kurfurst and TWO fucking radar Cruisers in it. I killed a Montana and took out 90% of the health of the Kurfurst with well timed torpedoes and effectively used my smoke to try to hide my team's push into the cap but they didn't take advantage of it. It's tough playing DDs right now, that's just one example but I've had a few games with teammates trying to get me to potato suicide and they are absolutely convinced that what they are saying is a good idea.

[@Brofisticus]

Different ships will also teach you different aspects of the game. Carriers will teach you how to look at the big picture, Battleships will teach you how to plan for the long-term, Heavy Cruisers will teach you about ammo usage, Light Cruisers will teach you how to focus fire, and Destroyers will teach you how to survive. Failure to learn these lessons from these ships will say a lot about the person sailing them.

[@miskatonic6210]

Brofisticus Bullshit. It's easy as fuck to survive in a DD. You're invisible half of the game, hard to hit and can't be citadeled. You don't even need to angle. Cruisers teach you to buy Belfast.
