    A good mino player will frustrate the hell out of you and be a DPM god, a bad one gives you free dev strikes. Good game design, high risk, high reward.

      Nah, the reality of this ship is that you’ll be able to do insanely well against terrible players but be useless against good players. A good player will dev strike any mino the second he’s revealed, and with all the radar cruisers around its not hard for a mino to be spotted.
      Plus you’re basically immobile - the British acceleration just isn’t enough and your turning circle and rudder shift are both meh. I think this thing would be a ton of fun if it had actual good acceleration so you could consistently dodge shells.
      Oh, and don’t forget that you’ll never get to shoot a broadside more than once if they’re not completely incompetent. It’s so reliant on your opponents being awful players, I think that’s terrible game design tbh.

      @@matsab7930 positioning is critical in the Mino and good players know how to take advantage of that. Honestly, positioning is the single biggest determining factor between good players and bad players in my opinion because it doesn't matter how good of a shot you are if you can't survive long enough to do any damage.
      The minor is just one of those ships that is not forgiving. I think it's one of the most balanced ships in the game.

    I'm a British CL Main. Neptune is almost as good as Mino. With these 2 ships, you can hold off entire flanks, coming under fire from a Minotaur can be very intimidating, and your HP will melt if you turn broadside. I prefer a smoke build, playing extremely aggressive, using my hydro as a mini, long duration radar to get in close and nuke DDs.

    Minotaur might be one of the best tier 10 cruisers in the game. It's an extremely strong cruiser, I would even go as far to say that it's a bit OP. The reason why it doesn't get nerfed is because 90% of the playerbase doesn't know how to play it. If everyone knew how to play it 60% better than they do now, it would have to get nerfed. It can singlehandedly hold back an entire flank, and it's really hard to get dev struck if you know what you're doing. I won't sit here and lie and say it has the best survivability, but the great heal, and the amazing maneuverability is what really shines about the ship. Most people don't realize that you should NEVER reverse in minotaur, as you lose all of that amazing maneuverability as soon as you start reversing. The thing slows down and reverses like a battleship. Nice one take PQ

    • @matsab7930
      @matsab7930 2 роки тому

      This thing has terrible manoeuvrability, what are you on about? It has a big turning circle and poor rudder shift. It’s relatively slow and sluggish.
      Your winrate in this ship is utterly dependent on the map and flank you spawn on. I don’t consider Minotaur a threat because you’ll at most eat one salvo before you angle in and his damage is pathetic, and all it takes to de strike him is a single well-place salvo - that’s even pretty easy to do through a smoke screen.

    Radar Mino is the beast. 9,1 concealment with 10 km 50s+ radar (with coal module, definitely worth it btw) is a super DD fighter and you are the one that definitely control who spots who. Smoke is better with farming dmg openwater, but radar is more game-impactfull and kind-of counterbully for enemy DDs. You get spotted without shooting? Press radar and in 5s you have all your guns pointed on a target that has nowhere to go to instantly hide :D

    I have the feeling that you've not played many games in a CV, I get it, CV bad and ppl who play CV are bad, but you need to play it to understand it's mechanics. I say this because I notice you complain, very subtly about CV supposed overpowerness. I've played a lot of CV games and as a result I hardly ever get into a situation where I get wrecked by them. Playing CV, normal damage score is around 100k, sure there are exception for some CV's like Nakhimov or Super CVs, but think about it, how many times do you see CVs in top 3?
    In your particular game, around 16:00 I was a bit surprised that chkalov even hit 1 torps since you were bow in, in a very nimble ship and chkalov has very long arming distance of his torps, but you did shoot five planes at least, without showing broadside, also Minotaur only has really strong AA at medium range. The only thing I can agree is a bit OP about CVs is the spotting, but you have to remember your team also has CV spotting and I hear that CV spotting mechaning is scheduled for a rework in near future.
    When you think about it, is it any more annoying having planes over you dropping bombs than a smoked Minotaur hammering you from a safe distance? At least you can shoot down the planes. I definitely recommend you play more high tier CV games, you may find out CVs are not that OP and even learn to counter them.
    I say all this with the greatest respect :)
