S Tier: - British DDs: Amazing cap contesters and no stinkers in the line. - Kleber line: Fast and powerful gunboats which can annihilate other DDs with reload booster. Also no stinkers. - Gdansk line: Smoke plus radar plus strong guns plus decent torps. No stinkers. A Tier: - Halland line: Decent gunpower, giga fast torps and strong AA. But some stinkers. - Yueyang line: Always smoked up or able to slot Radar. Deep water torps with torp reload booster. Solid line overall. B Tier: - Harugumo line: Giga Dakka. But a bit powercrept and T6&7 are torp boats for some weird reason. - Italian DDs: Can brutally slap with SAP. Decent line. - Grozowoi line: Nice alrounders with lots of goodies. But the translation for Ognevoi must be OG stinker. C Tier: - Shima line: Great concealment. Strong but long reloading torps. Pray for hits. - USN DDs: Alrounders but powercreep posterchilds. D Tier: - Delny line: Long range gunboats with little battle impact. Why play them when Kleber line exists. - Z-52 line: Way too many tradeoffs for that strong hydro. Also powercrept into dust by RN DDs. Btw, WG hates Germany. - Elbing line: Elbing is a decent ship (but a horrible DD). But the line suffers from some of the worst stinkers. WG hates Germany btw. Not rated: Cassard line. Problably B tier. Superships are not included in the ratings.
No stinkers in the Gdansk line? Grom says hello! Also Muavenet was one of the single most horrendous experiences i've ever had in this game, but luckily it's at tier 5 and won't take long at all to grind through, but for a new f2p player without boosters or free exp its going to be rough. Pretty much every line in the game has a stinker *somewhere,* you just have to hope it's somewhere in the lower tiers so it won't take forever to get through. Unless you picked the Yodo line, in which case almost every ship is agony and you need to rethink the decisions that led you to this point in life.
Trenlass i am really interested in grinding the grozovoi line... basically yeh it does have less than normal consumables but it has range and railguns to decently farm at chill ranges and good torp range ..GGs🎉
IT DD line can be really fun to play. You can make them work in tier 7-8 Ranked, but 9-10 Ranked would be rough, with all the OP hydro and radar DDs. Thanks for the review, but if you could specify ship play in Random vs Ranked that would be really helpful.
Always happy to see that people that are good at this game appreciate Elbing, and see it as a Very powerfull ship, it sucks as a DD tho, but this ship is a goddamn monster, very impactfull, specially with the legmod
ussr dds have improved armor too, but i think the elbing is the more "cruiser like" dd, because have actual usefull guns, even in low dpm, the accuacy and speed of the sheel are incredible
The best line is the Gdansk line as of right now. The guns are so ridiculously powerful, combined with good torpedoes, radar, and smoke. It's just unfair.
While it might be just how long they've been in the game, but I believe the Shimakaze is the most played T10 in the game. While that doesn't mean more are playing it at present, his has more total games than any other. Personally, I like the hybrid DDs, that can do both and it shows in my stats, but at T10 only, my highest win rates are in Kleber and Ragnar.
Shimakaze is the most recently played ship of all tiers and types, except on the asia server where it's fourth, behind Yamato, Colombo and Wisconsin. People seem to really like the ship :)
Halland will melt T8 planes. T10 might stand a chance, but with heavy loses, especially with more brittle planes like those of Japan or German. No good CV player will attack area with Halland anywhere near (unless forced to).
have you ever considered doing replay reviews? to help new players learn how to play the game better. i haven't seen many wows content creators doing this.
No way bro, we do not need more stealth in the game for torpedos. It’s already impossible to push in a BB and more stealth on torpedos would make them unplayable.

I think the harugumo line deserves A or even S tier because of akizuki and kitakaze, some of if not the best gunboats at their tier

Btw gearing line just needs the shell arcs fixed and it will have much higher effective dpm
Really great video. Would love to see this put into a playlist with the over overview videos!

Excellent guide as usual 👌
love these overviews!
Great video, thanks!

the difference is only the tier 10 has better armor unlike the elbing line where every ship has better armor :D

The Chinese (Pan Asian) tier 9? with 5.7 km concealment with deep water tops, reload booster, smoke can be a rude surprise. It's a nice line IMO.
I'd like to see a cv overview after sub overview
Can't really do it tho since I don't really play cv actively
I want a sub overview 🤩
Its going to be very short but sure :D
@@trenlass809 "This is a sub. Moving on" lol
Halland will melt T8 planes. T10 might stand a chance, but with heavy loses, especially with more brittle planes like those of Japan or German. No good CV player will attack area with Halland anywhere near (unless forced to).
Yes we would love to see a submarine line overview
waiting for the sub overview
Do the submarines overview plzzzzzzzzz

not really and tbf I am only talking about shima, most other dds have stealthier torps anyway
I want to know how Trenlass learnt English so well?
I lived one year in south africa :)
Without some annoying anime music , it gets s bit boring really
