483 Skarhabek Member 1,353 posts Report post #1 Posted January 2, 2018 well.... i dont do ranked for serious before. but after this 8th ranked show up, i am decide to do something. thanks to sheety MM mechanic + badluck RNG, i am screwed on random battle mostly of the time. no matter how hard carry, you can always get lose, that is why people called 55% WR is decent player. just be honest here, in other games i am the one who you called "anti - elitist/whale/P2W" player faction. the elitist usually its just bunch of noob whale but got P2W unlimited cash works.... that is why i am using shark pic as a symbol "i m going to eat the whale". shark is symbol of cheating "gameshark", in my other game, the cheater always beat the P2W full cash player. well, i am not use any cheat... they got easily banned. i am using something that the P2W player never have,.... its called "EFFORT". but WoWs is different, cash wont guarantee you to win! even if you on belfast or saipan.... if you noob you will be always noob no matter what ship and $$ you spend. that is why i like WoWs, even with shitty badluck MM & RNG. well, my random stat is already screwed.... even if i already good on some ship, it will take loooong time before it fixed my screwed stat. but i have this idea, if i had hide my stat but i got high rank, people wont realize i am noob...... rank always pop-up after the battle end. something that i can proud :V so today, finally reach rank 12 with 44% WR... the last match is so epic, enemy is ALMOST WIN, Kii and benson only have HP under 5K include me. enemy got 985 point and we just get 930. if everyone hide, absolutely lose.... everyone is under concealment..... so the Kii with 4K HP open fire at Amagi with 17K HP.... lucky the enemy Amagi is still turning its main turret because enganging atago... without hesitation, ITS DO OR LOSE! i phew phew the amagi and its hit...... killing it before firing its main gun at our Kii with low HP. and now the point is turning... LEL, ranked is so salty that i got chat banned because "noob-damned-noob-sheet" at my losing team before _________________________________________ this is point of NO RETURN! after rank 12, lose is lose and i will stuck at rank 12 if i cannt carry or get the highest XP earner! i am playing the charles martel, fragile yet mobile and versatile cruiser..... a) beside delete enemy DD or radar or AA ship, what is another threat for the team? b) there is too many BB in ranked, 4 BB is too much to destroy... and our BB is noob and SINK early -_- what should i do? c) how to counter Lo Yang with Hydro? i am trying to warn our DD but it seems not work.... what should i do? i am also shoot at smoked lo yang and its somewhat hit, but enemy team kill our DD more faster.... d) enemy got GG shokaku but we only get mediocre lexington..... i try to cover some BB, but i cannt cover everyone... my AA range is only 5km -_- e) any advice to reach rank 1 with charles martel? it seems NC+AA build is more reliable because good turret configuration and high concealment. Bismarck is not good for ranked. its tanky but dispersion is sheet! i only have Bismark and Charles Martel... using shokaku? no one Queue -_- 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

221 [SGC] Adm_Kunkka Member 456 posts 9,031 battles Report post #3 Posted January 2, 2018 How to counter lo yang? Play NO with hydro. Just avoid Cv in queue so you can sacrifice dfaa. Lo yang is as helpless as any other DD against you. Or play chapayev if you can handle her well. Damage farming ships like Charles are only good for flanking and even then you must be skilled enough to win 1v1 fights with other cruisers. Case in point: I have only 60% we in Takao in this ranked season even with high average damage and xp, most of the time top on team-win or lose. NO on the other hand has 85% wr (over 20 games but still) but lower damage and usually not top xp because I spend most of the time denying caps without farming damage. Forget playing DDS if you don't have a lo yang or have godly skill in other DDS or trust your teams cruisers or use yone tektics for ez rank1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

74 [VEU] IndyChanKawaii Member 381 posts 12,296 battles Report post #6 Posted January 2, 2018 Just use your OP radar on Charles Martel to help your DD and carry your team to rank 1. I have faith in you. In Sharkbait we trust 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

57 Burnt_Out_Koalas Member 330 posts 9,323 battles Report post #9 Posted January 3, 2018 This season ranked is horrible, completely in the favour to Battleships who sit back and snipe (WongSongMing must be in his glory) , . Open maps at best, does not encourage Cruisers and only 1 or 2 DD's far well and that is only for spotting and Radar advantages only. Nearly every third game you see a BB player on the losing team BB ram another BB (even if it is just 1 ship down) So the rules are simple for Ranked this season are as follows. To be consistently moving forward on the rank levels :- 1/ Only take a BB out that can SNIPE miles away or if bored take out the Asian DD's only 2/ Hope that your team gets an early kill before you actually do anything 3/ Move up after your team is winning or losing 4/ If losing RAM another ship to get max points 5/ Don't bother with any other DD other than a Lo Yang 6/ Don't bother with a Cruiser 7/ Pretty much US or Japanese BB's is the only way to move forward 8/ Sit back and see what happens .... 9/ always go in reverse .... 10/ play boring tactics 11/ Don't be a team player .... its about not losing a star 12/ Don't listen to your team players for help Success. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

774 [O7] keskparane Member 2,675 posts 17,680 battles Report post #15 Posted January 3, 2018 If you want to reach rank 1 you just need to learn to farm more damage. That's what matters most. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
129 [TDA] Kamanah Super Tester 411 posts 9,167 battles Report post #16 Posted January 4, 2018 In a battle we lost our 2 DD's very early on and one player just went to max range and farmed damage, this was literally 5 mins into the game.

174 [REPOI] SlamUez Beta Tester 954 posts 18,686 battles Report post #24 Posted January 5, 2018 I have been on rank 7,6,5,6,7,6 back to 5.0 now all week. Not unusual to have swings of 6 games of losses and 5 games of wins. Really depends on RNG. There are so many teribad players. Noob BBs that dont know where to go or how to position. So they go lemming. DDs that just fire on first sight and get smacked in first 2 mins of game. Solo DD in game that waste a smoke on other ships without realising how important they are for the whole game. Cap all 3 caps but lose to passive play later as ships dont know how to prioritise targets and finish things off. Teribad players getting 1 shotted 2 mins into game. BBs not assisting the DD on the first contest becausre their aim sucks. Bad players just farming dmg to not lose a star. List goes on. Wish i can now stay in the premier league so i dont have to deal with rank 10 teribads. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
774 [O7] keskparane Member 2,675 posts 17,680 battles Report post #25 Posted January 5, 2018 I'm getting a little tired of idiots like the one in last game "DD why did you leave B cap?" I mean why wouldn't I stay there when detected by hydro, with a radar backup, and being shot at by a charles martel? These ppl need to learn other types.
