Since someone mentioned this, let me clarify something. These are heatmaps for BBs that end in winning games. While it shows the general flow of the battle, aka how people tend to move in battle, it is still essential that you decide your final positioning based on the capabilities of your ship and what the opposing ships are doing (aka go back to the BB positioning video for ideas there)

*sees big red spot in mid on two brothers* Flambass I'm looking at you

meanwhile CV postion map: *insert static image here*

that red line going in the middle is flambass

I really wish more people would learn from their mistakes on Two Brothers and Fault Line. I sometimes see the same players going straight up the middle on Two Brothers even though it always gets them torped to Hell. If you're a BB, stay away from there until late game. Even DD and CA really shouldn't go in there, but rather pull up by the entrance in kiting away position, especially if you can launch torps backwards. Much more helpful than rushing straight up the middle and insta-dying. Though I'd prefer it if you help the BBs on the two flanks instead, but hey: ambushing middle rushers is better than being a middle rusher. Meanwhile with Fault Line, it's not always a great idea when heading to the eastern side to cut in closer to the middle, on the near side of those two islands instead of the far side where the cap is. More often than not I see this ending very badly, and then the BB/BBs heading to east cap end up on their own against 4-5 ships of varying classes and get overwhelmed. You can't earn glory if you get yourself killed and leave your team without support. If you have super amazing concealment, then maybe you can set up in an ambush position especially if you're fast enough, but most people I see cut in on the near side don't even try that, they just rush straight at the DDs and CAs and die horribly. And one more thing that applies to all maps: If you're afraid of fighting, get a Champagne, so that at least you can do damage while hiding with your tiny testicles. Bugs the hell out of me when I see these juggernaut tanky BBs hiding behind an island in the far corner of the map and doing nothing until the last 5 minutes of the match when there's no way we can lose. Meanwhile I'm having to fight 3 on 1, even 4 on 1 in some cases, or else I'm having to meat shield for my team mates in order to minimise our losses, all because one of our biggest damage dealers is running away to hide. I think that's enough ranting from me. Had to get it off my chest though. Since this pandemic started I've noticed a surge in rookie players. I'm new myself but at least I'm learning from my mistakes, as well as from videos like this one.

I see lemming trains most the time.

i love these sorts of videos with forensic approach

Very interesting... key is conserving forces in the flanking battles to have a bigger change to win the subsequent battle.

If I knew someone was using game data to make a heat map, I would have sailed in a *certain* pattern...

Nice job, thank you for teaching.

Keep up the good work. This is going to help me alot.

Well done, thanks

"if everyone bows in and tanks correctly" You wish!

Wow my notifications worked. Thanks for the vids bro

Said it before but thank you for making these.

Love your vids m8

I honor your effort creating this video. Though it could be summarized just to the point that the ships clash at two flanks at the beginning and then head to the mid. I think the strategic point comes short - how to respond to these general expectable movements of your opponents (and that is even only about tactics). In the end it is about tactical decision to position yourself better towards the opponent than the other way round. The strategic is non-existent - unless you have a division/Clan Battle and plan your movements really ahead. Sorry, if that sounds too harsh.

Hi Chase, can you make videos of " how to get good " for each( if you would ) nations ships base on thier capablity ? I felt i'm getting worst on my skills. ( been playing G.K for quiet some time but lately she's just not that enjoyable anymore due to the incress in numbers of HE spamming ships,be it mid range or long range.) BTW like your videos. Keep it up. GL.

Only been playing for 6 weeks. Love BBs up to a tier 6 atm. Game play tends to go for me. Diagonally to one side depending how I spawn. Flat out 20 kn. Our sides light cruiser taking the cap gets nuked and in a few mins it's 5 on one and a turn round to head back to the centre. On fire and burning through a heal usually. By then I have usually citadelled something only for my team to reach engage and help me and take the kill. At which point I turn around and re engage. It's just basically for BBs to end up doing this Diagonal racetrack loop from the center to the edge.

i remembered going thru the middle on 2 brothers as a cruiser and seeing like 4 ships in there

Nice tutorial

What kind of monster prefers C# over Java???

what are you/the map creator using to generate the heat map analysis?

ever notice that the shape of the two islands is essentially a megaladon tooth?

So im struggling with playing my ships, cruisers or battleships. Mainly BB's as I like surviving in battles and BB's seem to have that. Anyways, I struggle with the game because I don't know what to do against Torpedo walls. I just got hit with a pincer of two invisible cruisers and DD"s launching torpedoes and im too slow in the Groser kurfurst to dodge them. So I guess my question is... what do I do? Im trying to get into secondary range but all these destroyers and cruisers with massive amounts of torpedos are just smacking me down.

Chase whens the next video coming out??

I am afraid that the heatmaps will be useless, because of wrong criteria. When 24 potatoes play 12 always win, therefore the majority of movement is not optimal. Using a heatmap of unicum player BBs winning would likely be much more useful.

I play all classes but I have major problems with German bbs. I have the typical German bb skills and upgrades but going against with my Bismarck to fight an other bb if I show a the smallest bit of side, just to shoot 1 or 2 of my back turrets I get almost full pens. Then get angry and jump on my Shokaku, GZ or Lex and fuck upp ppl. Would be happy to see something similar for dd, CA and Cv

Wargayming: "How about no, for let me sing the song of my people: SUBS" LUL

the heatmaps remind me of bacteria

So the moral of the story is: Regardless of terrain, starting with a double flanking, refused centre is the way to go. Which just goes to show how much of overall strategy hinges on getting enemies caught in a crossfire.

I wish you'd use a different color than red for your arrows.

Best thing to do is hide in the back and hope to be carried , if they fail you milked your team for Your EXP and is top players on your team a WIN/WIN

why no one love "the Central position" like Flamu does?

these titles make me think of getting learnt with ricky from trailer park boys 😆😆

Well it doesn't work very well in Asia server as there are too many Botssss in-game

No point playing battleships as there are subs coming out

Soooo, pretty much WHY I quit playing world of warships. The SAME thing over, and over, and over , and over, and.........

Sleeping Giant has both a 4 cap and a 3 cap variant ... but the flow is not different due to how the islands are laid out .... EDIT: Land of Fire has a 4 cap and 3 cap variant as well .... Oh god, based on these heat maps, the game is really boring and predictable :-)
