Passivity is also a problem. Too many players wait for somebody else to do something. There is a fine line between aggression and recklessness but too many don’t want to approach that line.
My Ohio is fully built out for secondaries to legendary 16/4 Willis. I run brawler, porcupine, second thought and running with scissors. Every once in a while I run not for nuisance and firefighter after a few he spam matches but I’ve found If I have the range I never get in position to use my secondaries. So yeah I run a 15.4km main battery range legendary BB but it reloads in 21s and secondaries every 2.5s at 10.5km before 30k 5% bonuses/5% damage buff per kill. With Willis at 16/4 running with scissors turns on at 8km so I get a nice main bonus for most of the match as long as I push. It’s just a fun way to play,
People seem to forget that in order to win we need to play as a team. DDs need to spot/cap, cruisers need to support destroyers and make enemy dds their priority. Far too often when I play dd, the radar cruiser on my flank sails off into the sunset to go hide behind an island on the other side of the map. When I play bb, the dd on my flank either sits behind an island wainting to ambush something or completely ignores the cap and goes off chasing a bb at the back of the map. When I play cruiser, my bbs immediately start reversing at the start and refuse to shoot at anything other than bow in bbs 19km away. Its really frustrating. Its really simple: if your a dd, spot and contest caps. If you're a cruiser, for the love of god, shoot at the enemy dds when you see them. If you're a bb, stop hiding, take the heat away from your cruisers and go tank some damage and frighten the enemy cruisers away. Stay away from other bbs and position to create crossfires. Too many people chasing individual damage numbers. Leaving your flank at the start of a match should come with a 50% xp reduction 😅
Hey spartan, I know battleships are more your thing, but it would be nice to get some examples of cruiser and destroyer gameplay that showcases where other people are falling short, and how to avoid said mistakes.
4:43 so many dds hide in the back or dont spot or thry die in 30 seconds. When i get good dd teammates i always send a thank u message for playing a dd good. This way i encourage good dd play and compliment them when they play good
I’m finding lately with carriers in match, if positioned away from you and there are only 2 of you on one side as soon as the match starts your teammate bounces to a cap with more teammates which leaves you all alone typically in a battle 3-5 on 1. Causing you to take a lot of damage or sending you back to port early. Sometimes I just have to give the cap up completely to stay afloat.
Another problem is the system itself ... most players think dealing damage is everything ... DD chase a BB the whole round, cruisers hide the whole round because they only want to set fires ... BB drive backwards to the edge ...
The real problem in WoW is you are right about ships needing to spread out and not group up and DD's need to do the same for scouting and on and on you can go. But most of the players are damn idiots. And what's worse is you can't say anything about it as they will chat ban you IF you insult the wrong person who then cries and whines about it (and if they spend money well there you go). I was just in some games today. One with a Kitakaze DD player, almost 1500 games, and a 34% win rate (yes 34). Another with a player in one of those B Ships, a Massachusetts I think ... with a 42% win rate and 4000+ games. And I finished the night with 7 kills in my secondary build Bismark (where our DD's died in the first 7 minutes). And we only won that as the enemy CV and DD's came at us of all things (the DD's laying smoke for the CV to try and get in torp runs faster) and once our CV planes spotted anything my secondaries had fun (two close combats with the dd's lol). The real problem is the average player is a complete and utter moron. And WG supports this with their broken MM (as they will put that 34% win player in a game vs 51% and consider that balanced). Because of that no one has any reason to really learn or improve, as you'll get occasional wins randomly due to luck on the MM.
Thank you. This is my number one grip. This game play is so unbalanced. There are times experienced players will play with 10 year olds and you get whatever comes out in the end.
@@johorton7934 And don't you dare say anything to anyone in game about it or wow you will get banned in chat and fast. Never kicked from game as they want your money. Just silence.
C'est un jeu de guerre, donc il faut faire en fonction du moment et de la situation.. personnellement j'adopte une stratégie agressive tout en étant très mobile et jusqu'à présent sa paye plutôt bien.. chacun est libre de jouer comme il veut, avec l'expérience, vous trouverez votre style de jeu
I always love your videos, spartan much respect for making great content all the time. I want to say respectfully somtimes you also push in to fast like i do lol and then out team just hides and dont help us
Even when two destroyers are working together, don't follow each other around. Like one of you go on one side of an island, one on the other. Spot down ALL the alleys and what not. Come back together on the other side. Like a SWAT team clearing corners in a house. Ya know?
It may be more fun and good for your own stats, but the question you have to ask is whether that is more effective for the team than spotting and taking the cap. The rest of the team will be blind without two dds.
Spartan, I have a question. I have decided to do some research. I took out my best ship for this. I took out gneisenau and started pushing the enemy team back to a single corner. This works out horribly for me but great for my team. Every game was a victory. I'm not recommending doing this, but it shoves the enemy team into a few coordinate grids. It only helps that they often won't reposition. What are your thoughts on this kind of play? I don't do it often, but it is pretty fun. It allows low damage, decent XP games but always is a victory.
Can't split up when you're opponent unites and fucking blows you up in one volley. Brst advice i ayve for you guys is adapt to the environment. And use to your advantage.
I stopped playing wow about a year ago. Destroyers running to the back of the map to “protect” aircraft carriers and battleships literally starting off going backwards at the beginning of a fight. I liked playing destroyers, but with bb’s and cruisers literally retreating for no reason, got zero support. Solution? Shrink the map significantly so that people couldn’t run backwards as much.
Carriers don’t really sit in the back like that anymore because of the fuel update. Carriers are incredibly effective now but you have to play more forward
I made a one year break from the game, level has droped down crazy. Nobody push everyone afraid to take a hit, everybody on the same side of the map, no tactics at all. Its very frustrating.
yo spartan, i watched some guides from let um peek, other youtubers and a full "series" about guides from PC wows, but i still have a 50% winrate even tho i get aversve 70k+ damage on tier 7. Can you share some tips or how you got good in wows legends?
hey man what did u meant when u said that some Yamato players do not know how to play it? bc I almost have the yama and I don't want to be a moron to my team
"Most Yama players are morons... and that's not me saying anything specific about Yama players..." .... "People who play the Yama think they own the entire world and think they are the most dominate battleship on the planet." I dunno - that seems kind of specific 😉😆 As always, enjoyed the video.
Can someone please help me get any of this ships please. Even the green color ship N. Carolina CLR should be enough I think. Colombo, Yamato anything. For over 200 hours I got non that get oneshot. _SirenCall_ is the name. Thanks for anything!
They should fix the silver you gain to be at least 3x the damage done, you caused 200k damage and received very little silver, and still the cost of maintaining the ship is very expensive.
Another Problem Is That You'll Push, Teamates Will Start To Push With You, And Then They'll Just Leave You On A Flank By Yourself
Passivity is also a problem. Too many players wait for somebody else to do something. There is a fine line between aggression and recklessness but too many don’t want to approach that line.
You also have people that go through the trouble of loading into a game just to sit there and not even participate.
Some back up with a push is a dangerous thing
I unfortunately find myself trying to lead pushes and just…. Let down when everyone turns away and leaves me fighting alone….
@@DS-wl5pk Same. I'm so used to focusing on my own position relative to the enemy's that I sometimes fail to notice my teammates have abandoned me

If only everyone understood the game mechanics like this...
Do be aware destroyers aren't all meant to do the same role specifically cap aggression. Although spotting is always one of their roles

Great video showcasing the Columbo. I think just about any bb would panic at the sight of 16 15in shells flying at them.

I've gotta say, a 5 battleship push up two brothers was incredibly fun. We lost, but it was fun
Nice one Spartan, we need a Repub gameplay again!
I’m grinding for it, but man it takes years for those 1.4m gxp
I stick with destroyers , most battle ships sit and wait behind an island while smaller teammates get slaughtered.
Another problem is the system itself ... most players think dealing damage is everything ...
DD chase a BB the whole round, cruisers hide the whole round because they only want to set fires ... BB drive backwards to the edge ...
I have noticed the tendency of the battleships to group up when the Arena battles come back out.
My build is all secondaries ;) smoke really helps you push into the ranges you need and when someone is in it, they hurt…
Love your videos spartan, they have helped me improve my game play so much in the last year!!!
Awesome glad to hear that
I truly dont think a majoirty of players on this game intend to work as a team.

Trust me I know but I can't control what they do I can only do the best I can to help the team

Passive players are problems. Also Spartan, did you see the trailer for the next update? Looks pretty freaking sick.

Probably being in a Division is the best way to win games, because you have way more impact than being a solo player
Punch that like button. Spartan love to get in a game with you
Dear Spartan, if you don't mind telling me, what graphics settings are you using?
I am on console on xbox series X and I run the 4k in Graphics mode instead of Performance
Have all the tech tree T7 BBs besides French and Italian which do you recommend to grind next?
French For Sure
I highly recommend you the French line, the Richelieu is for me the best T7 BB, could be the Jean Bart maybe but I haven’t got her
Well done spartan, i see you expect every salvo to be a dev strike as always.
Did you noticed that you hit cc instead of mino , 5:30
It was funny
hey man what did u meant when u said that some Yamato players do not know how to play it? bc I almost have the yama and I don't want to be a moron to my team
I'll explain in a Yama video soon
Hey spartan, have you considered having viewers send in videos of their gameplay so you can react and critique their gameplay?
Already do that if you'd like to check out the community replays playlist
Hey Spartan
Would like to know what is your top five most played ships.
And top 3 nations. I know you're first is U.S.
Why your are not playing vanguard?
For the record I play pc so the ranges may differ.
Running away backwards is losing people games.
Seperation seems to be the key to success.
"Most Yama players are morons... and that's not me saying anything specific about Yama players..."
....
"People who play the Yama think they own the entire world and think they are the most dominate battleship on the planet."
I dunno - that seems kind of specific 😉😆
