Loading...Minekaze on Trident initially moves to the western side of the map to try and torpedo a couple enemy ships. I relocate to the center in a attempt to stop the enemies progress, unfortunately the rest of my team relocates as well. The enemy team continues to push into our base, I do my best to fight off the hordes. Hope you enjoy the game and have a wonderful day!
Tier V Japanese Destroyer Minekaze Replay
Well played and good video nots notser!
Im debating if i should get superintendent or high alert on my minekaze
capt. I rarely actuallly use up all my consumables in a match n it seems
the quicker i can use DC the better. Also that damn 7km T range, im
normally detected by planes if theres cvs or other dds so by the time i can
fire a salvo im pretty much seen. I end up playing the Mkze alot more
aggressively than i would like to.
“The Classic Battleship Captain”…….There is a HUGE difference between a
battleship captain who knows how to effectively use his range advantage and
a captain who hides behind an island half the game.
I just got my Minekaze… the learning curve is steep from the Isokaze. I
enjoyed the Isokaze [managed to carry the team in a Tier VI battle], but
the Minekaze simply cannot carry [IMO at least]. Its a bit too fragile,
dumps too much speed in a turn, and the guns are like firing thumbtacks at
an armoured plate, with a rubberband.
Good to see you don’t cry like a baby when players recognise you.
6,2km surface detection, 7km torp range, about 800m to work with, no
problems here, minekaze is very nimble and turns well
Wait these arnt 8km anymore either? Or is that only the kami?
One little question about your radar – I’m using Alternate Battle Interface
but the only range circles I’m seeing are those from visibility, main
cannon range and torpedo range. From what I can see on yours you also have
range indicator for AA and secondary armaments. Is there an option for
those or it’s because of an addon ?
The 3 tubes and the fast reload and the low detectability is a huge
strength, ofc not compared to before, but still. Having 2x tubes, almost no
matter the number of torps, make it a bit more difficult to get a hit.
Honestly I never thought the 10km torps on the Minekaze were good anyway
Honestly the Minekaze is still good.
even in closed beta I liked the 7k torps better. The 10k torps were just to
damn slow.
Notser, you should do the torp run on the New Mexico when you first spot
it. It was alone, so a torp run would be possible. With the
Minekaze pointing straight at the BB it will be a difficult target to hit.
noster, i played 15 games in my pensacola, my team always lost. Guess who
did most damage… Yep me ;-; Is the pensacola cursed?
A minekaze can 1 vs 12 if played correctly, Nosty forget Minekaze 7km is no
Shimakaze 8km.
No Noster, this is no “mini”, does “e” and “i” looks similar at all, no,
they aren’t same, so stop making “e” and “i” sound same, that just stupid.
This is totally aside to the gameplay featured here. I got curious because
I recognized that the words “kamikaze” and “minekaze” are quite obviously
related to one another. I’m not a scholar of Japanese, but I did remember
that the first means “divine / spirit wind” and lo and behold, the second
means “summit wind”, as the lead ship in the class of destroyers. All of
them follow the -kaze naming convention. “Marsh Wind”, “Offshore Wind”,
“High Seas Wind”, “Arrow Wind”, “Island Wind” (Shimakaze)…. very cool.
gg!!!
So i have been playing the Colorado. How the fuck are you meant to earn
enough exp on it to get the N/cal? I cant do damage. I aim and lead
perfectly but the dispersion makes me miss every shot. You say get close.
BUT IT HAS NO HP OR SPEED to survive getting close! This is gonna make me
quit the game, what am i doing wrong? I have never done more than 20K
damage in over 30 games. And even when i do manage to close to 6 ish KM (by
that point having lost 3/4 hp to HE spam, the shots at the waterline of
enemy ships just dip into the water, sail harmlessly overhead or overpen
for no damage. WTF. I founght an enemy north cal recently. I was bow on at
4 KM, 4 of my shells bounce harmlessly off his broadside citadel area, and
he pens me for 20K through the bow……. You might say RNG but this shit
happens EVERY GAME. I do well in everything else including the previous New
mexico and the IJN nagato, but this is bullshit.
Nice try with the Minekaze, Notser. It is the epitome of “can do a lot, but
rarely enough”.
Love you vids notser just wondering if you can do a Des Moines game with
cv. Thanks =-)
@ 8:45 you say “superintendent” but I think you mean to say “situational
awareness”
with a maxed commander, you can really take down targets, even with skilled
enemies. My Kaze R has a 68% win rate. but youre right, the more players
get skilled, the harder it is to counter. Im trying the russian DD line
along with the U.S. to see if i can learn better tactics from those ships.
I chose the AFT skill for my Kamikazi R, and its fantastic! 😀 it makes the
ship much more versatile, and nobody expect me to be able to hit them at an
increased range. + much more nifty when hunting Cv,s to get that early
fire.. :D
Kamikaze R with CE in high tier battles is super fun…the bbs don’t expect
the shorter torp reload.
these Japanese torpedo boats get more powerful as the game goes on.
1. less enemy DDs (especially the damn us ones)
2. people usually relax their attentiveness
also. the 7km torps are actually much better. they force people to be more
skillful in their approach. I notice that u always fire ur torps outside
the 7km range? I always run my mine as close to 6 km as possible before
firing.
At 13:30 did anyone catch the New Mexico just light up the enemy Aoba?
That’s just ridiculous.
This New Mexico was a WASD hacker. XD
Notser, do you ever plan on doing a quick compilation of fail plays in WoWs
(like multiple 3 minute clips)?
Playing this ship with the 10km torps it had back then and with tons of
players that had no idea of how DDs and stealth attacks work was so much
fun… :P
A lot of good info Thanks so much. Keep them coming.
notser, yesterday i was bemoaning in chat that the red team seems to always
get the japaneese dds and the mean green gets u.s. and russian dds. the
minekaze driver answers “just bekaze”. lol
Yeah I have found I am doing worse in the Kamakaze than I did with the
Minekaze. I agree it is mostly the players are just better, it is so much
hard to just delete enemies now, far far more of them turn or change speed.
Of course I am only 40k xp off my Fubuki cpt having 15pts and stealth. With
that it might change things on my Kamakaze.
A couple of days ago I got Solo Warrior and Battle Hero in one game for the
first time. I was in the Farragut. I got 3 kills. 2 BB’s and 1 DD with over
90,000 points of damage. Wish I had a graphics card so I can record my
gameplay. Keep up the GW and I enjoy your vids.
Do you play on the NA or EU server?
this is one poorly driven minekaze
Minekaze is such a strong ship … blisteringly fast, nimble, 68 knot
torps, 5.4 detection with decent captain. How can you not love it, Notser?
I’m shocked, shocked, I tell you!
those 10km torps where not as good though. They where way to slow. The 7km
torps are more than enough
Notser, what is the best way to send you a replay? I think youre going to
love the one I have for you.
Notser plans to be Rambo, but Russian Bias
notser, can u play CV? (any CV) please
I currently use the New Mexico and the Minekaze’s are very hard to hit haha
I hate em :P
I just love the sneaky jingles refferences in notsers video, He really lost
faith in the gnome overlord as soon as he saw a vid of him reporting
someone who was focusing him… hehehe :P
this ship was one of my first destroyers , people say that having 7km
torpedoes is bad and a shit but thats wrong , got 700 kills with it and
it’s an easy ship to use the only thing you have to do is to use your
cancealment well
It’s still a good destroyer for it’s tier, but it’s is like Jingles said “a
one trick pony” and it used to have 10km torps but they where much slower
and less effective. And yes, you have only 6 torpedoes but they reload
pretty fast compared to the higher tier.
You don’t have last stand on the minekaze?
I sent you a replay of 7 kills in my Minekaze a couple of times. Top skill
Capt gets the detectability down to 5.4 kms. I still think the ship is
fantastic with 7km torps. But it’s def not shit if you have a lot of
experience in it. GG Noster.
“Og-nye-voy”
minekaze?? more like mineshit
