As a generally competitive player in many pvp games, and a semi-frequent wows player (and I more often than not bother to grind ranked to gold) I can 100% support this video. very fair and accurate. I too, loved the MvR! But after the continuous nerfs - it just does not make up for the RnG reliance. The haku will give you the strongest dependable performance with slightly better performing AP bombs (less dmg than mvr, but more reliable due to drop height), and great torp damage. It also has planes that at least cause a dd to do something other than laugh at you! Great video, absolutely - Japanese and US lines first. I really wish they find a different gimmic for german rather than RNG. EDIT: In fact, did I play you at some point? I run my MvR in Ranked (to have fun, rather than to grind up ranks - for that I'll do a DD), as a torp-focused, interceptor build (but funny enough, without interceptors... so they can spot).

imagine if those CVs were still in RTS mode, it would be interesting to see nakhimov as a the hard hitting CV but with few squad, only 3/4 but has alot of reserve, Haku with her original 8 squad, MvR, Audacious would have the same as midway, FDR would just be like hakuryuu but with few reserve XD and immelmann just only has 4 but has the time to make the plane ready to attack again

Thanks for this interesting video, Reimu! I stopped playing CV alone without a division, but in my old clan there were much players like "i dunno like CVs, if you wanna play it i`m out here". So i had not much fun with my CV`s. Now i changed the clan and things changed fast! From "it`s ok when you play a CV" to "i love it when you play a CV". Because this players uses the advantages of spotting i can give and love how i can guide enemy ships to show them broadsides. It`s so funny that nearly all ships try to avoid a little torpedo, bomb or rocket damage and then get very high damage from 1 or 2 battleships or just a devstrike. Yesterday at tier 8 i had to compensate our potato DD`s and do much spotting work instead of dealing damage. Did only 11.238 damage with my Parseval, but had 59.510 spotting damage, most on enemy DD`s. And i forced the enemy sub to dive with fighter groups and waste its dive capacity. This helped us win the battle against all odds. In the last tier 10 brawl my clanmates asked me to play CV for just spotting and doing only some attacks, so i decided to grab FDR for its tough planes and do my job. Worked very nice.
@nicolasletellier61622 жыл бұрын
From my limited experience, the Russian Cv does more damage with what people think it is than in reality. It's the easiest Cv to mitigate incoming damage. It's powerful only against people who sail straight, the torps arming distance is so far and the speed kind of slow even the slowest bb easily doge most of them, whit the skip bomber if the target just turns fully in you will land at best 2 bombs reducing a lot your damage, and the rocket work only on AFK or brain dead player. I would happily be focused by 2 Admiral Nakhimov than one Hakuryu. But they are kind of relaxing to play. And For the RN Cv that really sad I loved the idea behind them, it was the first Cv I really try to play. But it's really a struggle with them, I know some manage to do good with them but good players will be good with everything, I'm not there yet.

The things that are probably why they are the most hated is 1.) Spotting capability basically killing any ship relying on concealment, mostly DDs, and 2.) When the CV gets good dispersion on a target and chunks for 10-20k, and the player "feels cheated" (strangely they never complain about 10-20k chunks from my Vermont) I will say spotting needs a nerf along the lines of radar and only doing map updates and not global spotting. Otherwise there is not much you can do to nerf CVs in their current format without making them useless. They have a very odd balancing that is make-or-break.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who thinks FDR is just meh in randoms. I don’t care for competitive so I can’t attest to it’s performance in that scene but for randoms, I find myself almost always preferring to play midway; the dmg potential is just better imo. Like don’t get me wrong, slapping 20k off a broadside island-humper is always funny but that 25 sec timer just kills it for me. Plus lets not get into the fact that playing FDR just invites unwarranted hate from the whole lobby. FDR is in the game so everyone just wants you dead, not because of anything you can actually do to them, but just because it’s got the reputation of being completely busted. I’ve never run into a situation where everyone on the enemy team will open up on a cv 15km behind the frontline on anything BUT my FDR. Midway? Hak? No issues, but playing FDR is just way more toxic than the gameplay itself justifies.

So, looking at your list. The Hakuryu is the better CV to spend time and resources to master (another month of grinding I should have her)? I've been grinding steel to get the FDR, but I also play DDs (clan battles, no CVs allowed). The decision to look at the Ragnar over the FDR for my first steel ship is what is on my mind right now. Would rather spend time becoming the best CV player in my clan(s). We have one, but he's only OK and doesn't perform as well as I've seen you and other really good CV players. I'm on a scab (sub) clan for a clan that seriously plays Clan Battles and KOTS. Do you do Tips and training vids for this new meta?
@micklane73062 жыл бұрын
FDR and Ragnar are the only 2 steel ships I've bought for the same reasons. I'd say if your going to play a lot of CB as a DD player you should def get Ragnar first so you can help your team win more matches and get more steel. Otherwise rag is still very good in randoms and ranked but somewhat difficult to play without div mates. And frankly people will assume if you have FDR that it's an automatic win so as soon as you start losing your the first one to be blamed and it sucks.

Hakuryu - Opportunist gameplay. Search for that lone target and blow it out of the water with repeated torpedo attacks. Your planes are fragile so pick your fights because they wont last for a second strike if take them across overlapping AA bubbles. If there are no lone targets on the map, make sure to pre-drop several times and just go for a single attack. Enemy stupidity is your greatest advantage. Audacious - Brawler gameplay. Pre-drop to save on planes and go for those 1 strike runs. Your primary targets should be ships that are already under attack, so that you can set them on fire and force them to use DC or set them on fire and wither them down if they already used DC. Because of the massive HP pool of your planes, you can go into overlapping AA bubbles and make the strike... and even recover your planes if u are smart about avoiding puffs. The firing arcs of all your planes help with that. Nachimov - Farmer gameplay. Understand that you are useless against DDs. Rocket planes have 6.5s lead time and torps have too long arming time. However, you are a battleship or cruiser's worst nightmare. Keep part of your booster ready for your attack run, because your planes will die during their attack run if u dont help them with the extra speed in that critical moment. Midway - Generalist gameplay. You can take a bite out of anything that floats and if you fly them right, your planes might actually return to you after their strike. Richthofen - Used to be good when players didnt know how to counter them. Now everybody and their dog will turn against your incoming squadron and because of the standard 10km spotting range against planes, you will never surprise any ship anymore. Worst carrier atm, by far. Do yourself a favor and just gather coal for the Immelmann. Its better in every way. Immelmann - See Richthofen. FDR - Salt farmer gameplay. Pick this if you want to read instant complaints from the enemy team in chat... while actually being just as mediocre as the Midway. Looks terrifying on paper, but only a good player will know how to use it..and that's a general rule for every ship in this game so that means its nothing special, when all is said and done.

You may have had an argument that I would have entertained, but the moment you said a skilled CV needs luck to shit on an unskilled DD yet unskilled CV apparently instantly dies to a skilled DD? That's just Bias. It takes extremely poor positioning of a CV to be threatened by a DD (And even then, to engage the CV requires also entering into bad positions in terms of match influence usually) and a CV also spots for their allies to smash said DD. In skill vs skill it comes down to both's allies. The skilled CV essentially would control the Skilled DD's play by either forcing them to retreat or make turns the rest of their team can capitalize on. The skilled DD can at best push to spot the CV and either be something like a Kleber or Paolo, otherwise fire support from allies is the only way theyll kill said CV what with armoured flight deck and CV already turned tail and running.

@@clankplusm You clearly did not read what I wrote. I used the words "direct DD murderer". Notice the "direct" part. This means the CV doing >damage< to the DD, by itself. I even mentioned that spotting is still the best tool, and your reply is stating the same thing, except you go into details. Ofc spotting is an invaluable tool that the CV has over DDs, but its also the only tool it has nowadays. Relying on your team mates to shoot a target is never fun. To elaborate on what i meant by the skilled/unskilled part ... I've been in matches where i had to hunt DDs by myself while in a CV and if the DD is skilled, you can do nothing except pray to RNGezus. Due to the 10km spotting range of planes, the DD will always meet you head on, so you'll have the smallest possible target to hit. Attack planes are now useless against them and more cruiser killers... since you need to lead by 4-7 seconds, depending on the nation - and even then, the rocket spread might miss completely. But ofc, to make the shot you need to spot it, which detection-by-air mechanics makes it so that your planes are always overshootting by the time its spotted. Before you say that you can use fighters to keep it spot it while you turn the squadron to make an attack run, keep in mind that all new DDs come with AA that will make short work of fighters, due to fighter low HP. I main both CVs and DDs. Those are my favorite ships... and I never get worried if a CV is spotting me while i cant be shot by his team mates. On the other side of the coin, if I need to kill a DD by myself while in a CV, its the worst type of gameplay. Im obviously not including the DDs that dont know how to press their WASD. I'll be the first to admit that not all DDs are skilled... but then again, not all CVs are skilled either, so it balances itself out.

I will admit that the "Murder" aspect only refers to handsless DDs who let themselves be line dropped by skip bombs. However most if not all CVs can hit a DD for some amount of damage regardless of their (DD) ability, and the only way a DD can nullify this is to back off from a cap entirely into friendly AA, which costs a lot of valuable match influence. I play both CV and DD as well having multiple Tier 10 carriers and many (Well, save the fact of a lot of resetting) Tier 10 DDs with a high winrate in DD and relatively good in CV. Scoring damage on DDs can be a bit of a slog, that does not mean that the CV isn't destroying the ability of the DD to exert any match influence, both by keeping it out of key positions and spotting it to be damaged / cross dropping it to force more damage / dealing damage to it, that damage removing it's ability to trade with the enemy DD (If you take enough HP off of a gunboat DD, many "inferior" gunboats and torp boats can suddenly press that one with a positive trade and can press all the other advantages they got from not having that initial gun adv. The opposite can also be true if a conceal DD worked hard and risky to get allies to slough off some of the gunboat DD's hp to do that, but oops, enemy CV showed up and crossed me, now I have to pick between losing my HP trade, angling away and losing gunpower and losing the HP trade, getting torped... Etc, etc, etc...) As for the whole "AA will kill your fighters" -there are captain perks that offset this. And only a very small handful of new DDs actually have the adequate AA. Partial Blind dropping in from the tail of the fighter squadron's hp is all you need.

Would strongly disagree with that hakuryu biased list =/ especially for returning/new players, they will get very surprised too see that even attacking single target might cost you your whole squadron, thx to new ships that have stalingrad level of aa.

you misunderstand the purpose of the video. it's not a video on which line to grind for a new player. it's a video for players of all skill levels on what lines to grind depending on their interest. I even give recommendations on which lines are more beginner friendly.

And soon some time in the future we will have SUPER CARRIERS with "tactical squadrons" of JETS, and the HORNET with her "tactical squadrons" of B25s. Having played the 6ths id say this is a fair list, and YES the USN is the most "general purpose" line of the bunch. I seriously wish FIGHTERS where better (take Enhanced Reactions at the very least if you want your fighters to murder enemy planes) and AA was better as well as made any logical sense (number of FLAK vs number of DP guns). Carriers just ARNT FUN anymore, its just a BORING farm fest. With skill those HE bombs have over 55% chance to start a fire (and you get 6 of them), on top of almost 10k damage max damage (9200 if i recall, which due to how pens work 33% of that is the actual damage they do, 3050 i think if i remember how math works), the torpedos arnt grate but not bad, and you have the choice between HVARS (more rockets, which mathematically actually do more damage if they ALL hit) or TINY TIMS (more pen and damage, good for dealing with Cruisers or Battleships) depending on preference.

I hate CVs as much as it gets, but unfortunately I am forced to play Midway (which i bought with Free XP) in order to get Halsey. Am I doing something wrong cause even though i maneuver a lot, my planes are getting decimated and i can't do any serious damage. What am I doing so wrong?
@ReiYukihyo Жыл бұрын
If you're able to dodge flak, then you're on the right track. You have to also take the ships you are striking + ships that are nearby with AA into consideration. Some ships have stronger long range AA meanwhile some have stronger mid/short range AA. Best tip I can give is to enter and exit the attack as fast as possible to minimize the amount of time spent in AA. Btw, you can repeat the missions for completion progress on those special tasks. Don't have to play each one for a completion score.

“The us line is very friendly.” No no NOOO IT IS NOT “The ranger is… on the weaker side of things.” Y A T H I N K ? “But once you get to Lexington and midway it’s a breeze.” *me on the ranger just 100,000 XP short of the next tier.* 🥹 so there’s hope for my US main yet?
@ReiYukihyo2 жыл бұрын
Ranger is def the weakest of the line for sure. Meanwhile Lexington is one of the better ones of the tier, so yes.

@@ReiYukihyo ranger is so frikin frustrating I hate it Until I dogged into how ranger was bad at first I thought the general nerfs made Carriers unplayable or that I had just gotten bad despite landing mod hits and learning more about the game. I’m so happy, so glad, I’m not going insane, that indeed the ship did get worse for the tier going down the line. And the stats are a lie.
