  • A totally reasonable and objective analysis of this perfectly balanced aircraft carrier, Tier VII Chkalov. This thing is fine and probably needs a buff instead of a nerf. All words in this description and video should definitely be taken seriously and at face value.

    I’m fascinated to learn about the de-plane issue. I’ve played the Pobeda a lot, and was interested how this Chk one pans out.
    Since the big patch, all CVs are a straight up & down damage wagon. No tactics of team helping, beyond some strategically placed fighter planes.
    The Pobeda has the shortest range (they’re in order left to right), and the least health planes. It gets de-planed every match I’m in; I had a strong AA lobby where I had no planes in less than 5 minutes.
    On paper I see the Chkalov had much the similar setup. But 3 squadrons of 6, rather than 2 squads of 7 - I’m guessing this helps avoid de-plane, or slows it a lot! Hmm!
    Many of the stats are similar. Until I saw the damage … 50% higher than Pobeda. That’s surely where the nerf will come. And 45% fire instead of 30, base. Yikes! That stinks of pay to win, if it weren’t for the randomness of teammates.
    I’ve been playing DDs only, the past few months. This CV popped up today, my first game this week, and it later found me - the ending was inevitable.
    But then my experience on the receiving end of all the premium CVs at tier Vii have been much the same. They don’t de-plane the same and they throw out so many bombs that DDs are target worthy. In contrast I give zero bother about tech tree CVs, I know they’ll not bother me and I’ll avoid most of its fire… except maybe the Vii JPN one (Shoku). The Shoku is the only tier Vii I’ve found to print planes from the tech tree.
    Overall, CVs have become very dull IMO. They should really cap them to tier V and not Vii. They’re a good way to see an overall game for a new player.

    • @Wilsontripplets
      @Wilsontripplets День тому +1

      This is coming from a cv player with 300 games in Shoukaku you are still pre dropping planes quite a bit because your planes don't have the HP to facilitate multiple drops so you pre drop get 1 attack off rinse repeat as you usually can preserve your torpedo bombers to make it through most of the match.

    • @Scoupe400
      @Scoupe400 День тому

      @@Wilsontripplets ​​⁠​⁠ yeh I kept this up even when the big patch landed.
      When it first came, I think I tried a couple matches without pre dropping and was surprised it kinda worked; but the hot fix totally nerfed that.
      My commanders are only rank 7. Only got this in February, so a long way off getting them to 16.
      The pre drop seems to be needed to save planes, but as you say, it also becomes pointless having more planes in the squad because they’ll be dead by the time you finish the first drop. And you’re limited on distance. It seems you need 2 “salvos” of planes, so that your dive run are healthy, whilst the second set take all the flak.
      Essentially what we are describing is what this new premium ship does for the Russian line; holding planes back and having smaller squadrons.
      I’ve not got the German Vii CV, but I’ve got the rest at that tier (only just unlocked JPN and USA recently); and got all tier V. I got the UK line first, which was kinda horrible until the patch. I’ve probably got 100 games in Pobeda. If I get back into CVs, I’ll definitely give Shoku a proper run.

      🙄 Although a true statement, as a FTP only player (you know, not endless money to waste and not a CC who get endless free ships)….your statement is literally easier said than done. Legendary and Premium ships, and let’s not forget premium days so you can actually afford to play higher tiers, are extremely hard to come by without spending actual money. And since I don’t make living off this game and go outside once and awhile-it takes an extremely long time to grind tech trees, which again - when there are stupid teams and stupid OP ships like this one and w/o premium time, you can go negative on ship service in 1-2 games, meaning spending time at lower tiers just to get enough silver to get it back in play. Check your privilege, time/money or both, before commenting like that….
