Ranked has always been a team gamemode in a singleplayer game, with questionable mechanics and too much RNG, and it shows more this season than ever before. I recently got my DM, and while it’s fun to delete Stalingrads when they mess up or citadel Smolensks from max range, it never is enough to reliably win games. Saving a star is good in concept, until the end of the game becomes a race *against* your teammates who can deal the most damage instead of trying to win *with* them.
I’m not enjoying Ranked anymore, and, as cool as Neustrashimy sounds, the frustration just ain’t worth it. Flint will do.
@U.S.M. Valor I am not bad at communicating and my stats don’t put me in a bad light either. However, WoWS is full of design decisions that hamper and actively discourage teamplay, such as sacrificing a smoke to keep an ally alive as a DD. The reward screen will rate credit and XP income mostly on your damage dealt still, with a few exceptions such as caps or, paradoxically, fighter takedowns in a CV. As I laid out, saving a star leads to your teammates actively becoming your competitors in the endgame in a ranked match.
@The Budgie Admiral i’ve been saying since CBT that as long as this game gives MAX rewards based on damage dealt vs everything else; you can forget about any assemblance of “team” in this game
@thegibbs The rocket planes are so paper thin they should just scrap the rockets altogether and just make them kamikaze planes, it would suit their purpose better
I think the spreadsheet would say this is balanced
@Travis Boutell i feel like rocket planes are decent, 31mm pen, decent dmg, fast, you should always drop one round, you can play around the paperness, i still think the haku’s combined package is the best of the t10 cv’s
The use of rng to largely determine damage has turned me right off this game and the horrible MM really finishes it. I’ve never played a game that has so many negatives to overcome. I played since the beta and could care less about supporting it anymore.
1:15 best strategy would have been to rush him and blap his broadside instead of falling back and shooting turrets, broadside is Kremlin’s only small weakness
how to be good in ranked battles… CV, kremlin, stalingrad, smolensk… thank me later
@tejo adi I said only CVS bro
Read the comment properly XD
@P.J instead of nerf why not buff other CV
@P.J Shokaku is not OP
@Barry Hutchison it is op when compared to midway
I have a 83% WR in the conq for ranked this season. Just saying

The 5 games ive played so far were all wins with 100k+ dmg but wait for it…. i was in the hakuryu

That was quite a mild “rage” quit… mine would have my keyboard fly to the other side of the room…
that must be the most calmest rage quit I’ve ever seen.
Same here, im not that mad at the ships like stalingrad or smolensk except CV. I more mad at my team mate 🙂
Ranked needs skill based matchmaking
Yeah absolutely correct!
Life in ranked:, win lose win lose win lose repeat

Hey, at least you didn’t have a friendly Gearing smoke up an enemy Zao that was about to come out broadside to your GK at 8km…
Yep. That happened.
Im glad I dont have a T10 yet so I cant suffer alongside you
YouTube is like Instagram
You only see the good stuff on the surface, never the iceberg of cancer on the bottom

‘Ranked’ is just another form of the word ‘rage’.
They made American ships armor very weak! That’s why I hate this game!
i have been really lucky it seems.. rank 10 in 19 games 🙂
Got to rank 5 with my Wooster. WR of 60%, and I’m a 55% player. The teams were sometimes rough though, plenty of snowflakes out there
That YY was baaaad. But it’s nice to see im not the only one with people like that constantly on my team.
