Kansas is lackluster. She feels more like a T7 ship than a T8 one. Her slow speed is her undoing.

I’m not a fortune teller but I’m pretty sure I know how this is going to go.
What did you tell the fortune?
@Aerroon Slow and steady wins the race… but isn’t always fun.
I’m from Kansas. Please just say Kansas I beg you.
@Aerroon Sorry about how you pronounced it, or that Dane is from Cansaw?
this is why Dorothy left
@Daryn auna hahahahaha
Indeed, even the Google voice agreed. “R can saw” is ok, but the Dorothy state is Kan sas. =)
yeah arkan*saw its good but kansas is just kansas its annoying i know
Good vid as always!
Arkansas weirdos always trying to ruin english.
@Karthik Well, you take a Native language that the French explorers barely understood (and didn’t have a written form, so no ‘correct’ spelling), and strain what they think it sounds like through French and then English and passed on over the course of 2-3 centuries and you get what you get lol. I thought it was a funny story, and heck it took me 30 seconds to find. It’s certainly a better story than the origin of my State’s name…it’s just Penn’s Woods.
@ザム「Zam」 Agreed…but what’s more political than being able to name the land itself?
It’s cool, I understand. I’m from Illinois and people not from and some actually from there pronounce it with the S at the end. Education isn’t a strong suit of the United States
hey is there USN Nebraska?
list of foreign states names? especially the french which got so much silent word
the way you say kansas makes it sound like youre just saying cancer in a really skewed way
That’s.. not intended at all.
@Aerroon it would be really hard to mistake you saying cancer over kansas haha, but so far these super dreadnoughts just look like fat slow targets that dont really punish you
Should I have split this video into two? One being about the match itself and the second being the comparison between Kansas, NC, and Colorado? Throw in the armor scheme look too.
I am so used to your videos being the battle with commentary, and then a quick overview of the ship and it’s setup that I didn’t notice there was 20 minutes still left to go after the fight was over. I generally just skip the end part, because I don’t play the game and don’t pretend to understand what the Captain’s Skills do etc. So maybe.
I live in the state and how you first pronounced it was the correct way
The reason for this ship are the new player they gave them a ship wich can attack far away with no danger maybe J line and had the feeling they can play this can because they hit something so no danger for this bots but u will never see them near caps so basically a player nobody want i the team so i know for the future where this ships will be
bro it KANSAS not KAN SAW
@jay Vee or make their AP performance the same and make their accuracy similar
I heard “We are in the T8 American battleship the Cancel”
Close enough.
At first I thought he said the “Cancer”. That matches it’s performance much better.
I heard “The Canceled” which also seems fitting
Not sure how I feel about having 1910s-1920s designs at tier VIII-X, they don’t seem to work well with late 1940s ships.
Thats kinda why we never built them, but welcome to world of warships.
The new US Fattleship
tbh when that Monarch was broadside to you you always aimed too left or too right, the shells never landed where the citadel was until after
Yeah, but the shells go wide . They don’t go into the exact spot I aim at.
@Aerroon Yes, I agree that Kansas has horrendous dispersion but your aim wasn’t exactly on point either.
I could listen to a whole video where you just pronounce different names of states lol
That’s an idea!
You still are not saying the name correctly . 😂
Soon I will take Kansas from the missions. I think that WG will buff the line in someway if the community keeps saying they are balanced bad and etc. Let’s just hope
I hope so, they dont seem TOO bad to me but defiantly could use some buffs here and their (no excuse for the damage repair being crap and my god that 6km accuracy PLZ BUFF 1.7 seems ok to me) Bear in mind too these things have the same shells at Colorado as well.
Yes, Aerroon, the pronunciation of Kansas and Arkansas troubles me greatly.
The second line american BB’s are getting the British CA treatment, a filler line with no redeeming qualities and underwhelming performance because they’re “not russian” !
@Neev Dhawan why because of the 12 457s, welcome to cruiser overpen city im sure.
@Jay Werner superheavy 457 which overmatch most CA and cl and even with overpens they still would get fucked
@Neev Dhawan ya might want to double check that cus i dont think they are super heavy, if they are tell me but i think they just 457 shells. Still point taken, the 30mm des monis armor really doesnt mean much these days huh.
@Jay Werner ballistics-wise Vermont shells are little bit faster than Ohio ones, and she have more penetration at longer ranges
As of now Vermont has Ohio shells because of the AP damage. Maybe they will change it.
you should have aimed for the belt armor instead of the waterline when you are in close range – like with the monarch
That’s Germ….American battleship accuracy for you.
This is an amazing analysis vid more of this plz
The poor qualities of the Kansas, and indeed all the new American battleships is really simple to explain. They are not Russian.
the russsian in game battleships are fake they were never created in real life
Arkansas has a French pronunciation, where the “s” is left silent, while Kansas has an English pronunciation, where it isn’t, is the short reason for the discrepancy. Apparently, different people were mapping different areas back in those days.
Also, on the Kansas, at close range one probably should not aim using the waterline. Rather, aim mid-ship height.
