This game doesn't have very much damage at all. But helping the team is more important than personal damage numbers if you want to win. In this video, I go over what I'm thinking when trying to get the win above all else.
I'm Potato_Quality, a member of O7, and probably one of the best battleship players in this game. Hopefully, on this channel, I can teach you a bit about how destroyers are played. Thanks for watching.

First minute sounded great and I'm sure there is good info here but man the reporting after you fucked up is just pathetic

I love all your videos PQ, who would you consider to be a top tier DD player and or recommend to watch (besides you of course) for more tips on DD play, thanks in advance from an old dude just trying to better himself as a DD main... Love all your videos on play and ship reviews, you are awesome very well spoken and easy to follow.

Still viable. I play Kidd in ranked, too, full AA build. Great ship. And I actively hunt for planes. I love Kaga bcs that's almost a guaranteed AA medal if the CV doesn't avoid you. British CVs are the only thing that scares me as well as Akizuki and Asashio. Dispersion on my Kidd is awful especially when DDs are kiting away.

I'm often the last person alive for my team and no amount of spotting will help when you're the only one on the team with a winning win rate and decent average damage/kill rate. You really need one other competent player on the team if you want anything to happen. One game this week really sums the player base up. I was spotting 5 reds at once, my entire team were behind islands with no shots. All six, 10 minutes into the game. We lost. I ended up with all 3 kills and both caps for the team and scored a total of 2,000 spotting damage. Ranked really is "kill 5 or more if you want to win" 4 isn't enough, I have a few 4 kill losses every season/sprint

When i first started to play DD i did what i was suppose to do, Contested point, spot... problem is when team neither help me take down enemy DD and also just aims in completely other directions or starting to retreat, while i got just a hellfire storm of enemy shells on my positions... even if i ask for coverfire/focus fire on DD... Now i might have turned selfish, i do spot occationally but i try to never relie on teammates, i move wherever i feel like i have best chance of survival, never in open ocean, overall my own performance has gone up and my winrate has qone up significantly Teammates in this game are just completely indiffrent whatever, a supportive DD survives or not, as long as enemy DD is dead...

13:00 ohh yes the cv did a great job in the end of the game we had a p2w dd who did not spot shit , did not damage shit , left the capping to the battleship , the aa support was done from behind a bb and a cruiser killing the bb in the process

Misuse of the reports may result in Wargaming taking them away. Hopefully, instead, they reprimand players who misuse reports.

@siriusczech 3 жыл бұрын

he reported him for playing the most OP CV per its tier of all times. The fact you cannot buy it anymore (same as Smolensk) is probably the best statement how the ship is broken. That ship is a big problem for even an opposing CV with its brutal range of fighters, that on T8 ranked can effectively control almost the whole cap (8km diameter) unlike standard 6km radius. I played against it multiple times in ranked in Shokaku, mostly through frustration of trying to spot and cap in a DD while noone shooting anything, leaving flank in middle of pushes and afterwards being focused by CV; WR improved a lot afterwards. But having Enterprise as an opponent was partyl frustrating even for me and as long as it usually can afford to sail with its team on this particular map and have so many planes in reserve that is usually undeplanable for the first half of the match while it can deliver strike after strike on anything getting close to its bodyguards. I wish more CVs could go with the team like at cape Matapan, but this ship is absurd ;) And for reporting, yes. When Enterprise chases damage and goes killing ship after ship just because it can, it is frustrating gameplay and Enterprise is one of the few ships actually capable of pulling out good number of kills steadily.

Lives to end, ok. Spotting damage: 4139. Actual damage ~ 11K. Contribution to cap 0/120. Reports CV bc he misplayed. Eats a ton of damage twice bc he doesn't smoke after the first time he gets wrecked. So what did you do to deserve a higher score here? You got carried. This here is why I unsubbed you. Is that the best game you could find?

I got 100% wr with Enterprise in bronze so I understand the frustration with reports and 70% wr with Shima and Black in silver ....in gold it will depend from the mood ....if suicidal ill go Kremlin and if I wana chill ill go full Wesly Snipes with Vermont. PS: Playing Manfred in Ranked is boring ..... I got the record in last ranked before the ranked rework with 31 citadel hits ....my team was lamenting about FDR from the start of the game so I went and killed him in 3 strikes ....all it takes to take down any tier X CV if you are playing Manfred ...hes still the king of CV's if you know how to play him ....lame ....
