I’ll leave a recap of the three steps to help with reading lineups here.
1. Compare the tanks on each team. Do not focus purely on tank class but on tank characteristics and play style. Use this information to try and predict where vehicles will be played.
2. Weigh the tanks against each other. Consider how strong or weak your team will be in a position based on step 1. This step takes lots of experience and bad games to realize.
3. Decide on which play you want to make (if your team splits properly) do you want to support a weaker flank or slaughter a stronger one? This is purely based on your intuition and once again experience.
If you follow these steps you’ll have a solid foundation on reading lineups. Naturally this will not always work nor will it always make a difference in a game outcome (if enemy yolos seven tanks on one flank for instance) but it will help you a lot with practice. Hope you enjoyed the video and found it helpful!
First like!
Thanks man, I can't believe I always think if the enemy gets more than one heavy than our team, we would lose (an example)
I love the format of this video, very informative. Excellent.
Finally get to see the 10k E4 game 🙏
Also sometimes you can tell when the enemy team has a lineup where they're able to send all 7 tanks towards one flank. Maybe you could've included a replay where the enemy team sent all 7 tanks one flank due to a more mobile heavy lineup? just thoughts
Great video but volume very low
No way it’s a regular video! Miss the old how to plays sometimes
Ikr! This is rare nowadays😩
Been a while for sure! Enjoy editing videos but it’s very timely so I’ll keep them for special skill topics like this one :)
@@hisroyalfatness nice idea Fatness👌
Miss them all the time
I've been playing this game for like 7 years and I still get value out of these how to's, especially from the Fatness. Love your work and thanks for the effort, I hope everyone watches them.
Thank you! Always room to learn more (even if you’ve been playing for 9 years)! :)
Absolutely fantastic video on a topic that is desperately needed for many Blitz players. Learning to read the lineup of both teams and the deep dive into the typical positions you mentioned is HUGE. So many players are completely oblivious to this concept. Equally important, a topic you touched on a couple of times during the video is map knowledge. Not only understanding the map control, but your knowledge of maps--the spotting positions, the anticipation of the Carro in your 268 game was of course stellar. This takes a great deal of thought, effort and experience for those of us mere mortals. You're on another level Fatness! Appreciate this educational video concept. Content like this will help those willing to learn. Thank you.
Thank and I’m super happy you found it helpful. As I say experience is key but there has to be a cognitive desire to improve and learn which I think a lot of players lack. Without it, players are just spamming battle and hoping for the best. 😅
Fatness I love how you played off-meta vehicles. It really shows skill and awareness of the game. Thank you for throwing a rope to those struggling with the more niche mechanics of Blitz.
Thank you :)
Awesome video fatness. I learn more in 15 minutes of your videos than I do in 15 hours of gameplay! Please keep up the good work, I really appreciate the time and effort you put in to make these for us.
Thank you! I’ll try to consider other important skills to highlight in the future
@@hisroyalfatnessmini map reading next please
You should keep making regular videos. I can’t stand the other wotb youtuber who is so arrogant it just oozes from him. He thinks he is better than everyone and everything is beneath him. You actually have a likable attitude and personality.
Appreciate it. I do plan to make some more in the future even though I’m primarily a streamer now
Awesome video! Thanks so much fatness for the time and effort you put forth in making these types of videos! It is very much appreciated. Your streams and videos have improved my game play immensely and I thank you! The wotb community is lucky to have you. Thanks again!
Really appreciate this! Nothing makes me happier than knowing I can help other players out. 😊
I know it definitely takes more time and effort, but I'd love to see more of these videos! there's honestly not that many unicums in blitz anymore that consistently make tip videos on more complicated subjects beyond the basic info of the game
My channel was started to focus on more obscure skills in the game so I hope to continue this series of videos if I have the time
actually think this is the number one thing peoples should learn when starting off, teaching sidescraping, brawling and all that is useless without positioning. more videos like this please!
Agreed! Basic skills can help for sure but the analytical side of the game is so much more valuable for improving
I play this game for 7 years now, but this kind of video's do really help me to understand the game more. I always make stupid choices in the first 30 seconds of the game and therefore not as efficiënt as I can be. Thanks fot this video!
Been a long time since you uploaded a regular video.
Thanks for this advice!
Appreciate the support over the years!
You're a class act, Fatty. Keep using your talents.
When you think of it, you've got very little time to do this analysis. At first, all you can do is count classes. But the time seems to expand little by little until you can think a little about each tank's capabilities. Still, I get less than 30 seconds. Fatness gets five minutes.
Haha! Once you’ve played enough with the reading lineups mindset it only takes about 5 seconds to know where is best to go (although mistakes happen often even for me on positioning!)
To be honest, pubs isn't a comp game. Even if your team leaves something like 1 heavy and a camping td at another side, it's unlikely for the enemy team to push efficiently because they're all concerned about keeping their hp rather than winning the game. I find this advice, while useful, to be a little extra when you consider that obtaining early information is far more accurate than acting on any assumption at the start of the game. It's still good to consider, but I guess you did note that things never go as expected, and this helps you be prepared for the many scenarios. Good video!
Thanks! Basic guide to get started but in the end you have to get really good at predicting plays the enemy makes. That’s a tough thing to do
Wow you got me trippin'
I had to open your videos tile and see last posted video 2 years ago before this one to believe my eyes😂
Great to have this back❤
Right? Takes time but making nice guides was my initial YT thing :3
More of this champ. The masses on NA server have very little knowledge of any of these key premeditations for matches. You can be a great teacher with this platform.
Thank you! Before I switched to streaming this was my primary content :)
Adénome video ! Im playing this game for 4 years now. I learned how to improve my reflexion, my observation and my skills. I make efforts. But when most of the time, your team doesn't support you, it's complicated to come out with a victory 😅. But I´ll never give up. Thank you buddy for giving some tips. Wish u the best and keep going 💪🏽
Appreciate it! Learning to adapt to teams can be a difficult process
Thanks for the video Fatness, and please do more as my son enjoys them...oh and I do too as they do help.
Glad you and your son enjoy the videos! I’ll have to make more! :)
@@hisroyalfatness Please do Fatness he really loves you and Bushka, always asks me why you don't do more videos except LIVE. His mother (my X) doesn't like me letting him watch you or Bushka. Oh my son noticed, and I actually did to after he told me he said "If you see two or more of your team with no camos you'll lose" and I'll be damned I starting paying attention and he was friggin right🤣 have you noticed that?
Thanks, Fatness, I hope a lot of tankers watch this and learn a better gameplay, I've been telling ppl to start reading lines ups for the past 6 years in this game
Im glad there's alot of videos of you on yt. It's class in the comfort of my bed
Well made fatness ! Tyty epic video! Feel like I learned a lot in only 15mins! Very valuable content!
Thank you! Wanted to keep it simple and sweet which is why it’s a 101. To fully explain reading lineups would take hours so hopefully this is a good starting point for many
Great tutorial, thank you for so much information in a 15 minute video, love the music, fly overs and the commentary
Thanks! Glad you noticed the extra touches I added :3
@@hisroyalfatness I could tell you put a lot of thought and effort into it and it really shows, I have seen many videos and this ranks at the top for information, composition and esthetics. Great job
@@ominous_plays thank you
Hey Fatness please read all of these. Thanks for making an informative video. The only thing we expect from the game is to have a well-educated playerbase. They only talk about tank balance but they never thought about balancing players. They are allowing newbies & noobs to purchase higher-tier tanks and letting them destroy the overall quality of the game. I can tell you those who haven't learned after playing 10k battles, won't learn ever. So, it's much better to filter them out and implement solo battle mode for the random match. Only your performance will count. Both sides will have individual winners for their top performance. Then nobody can complain about having bad team. No, I'm not talking about the rating battle cause stats (damage, winrate) don't count in the rating battle. They have ruined it already by mixing PC players with mobile players. Mobile players never play the game seriously. They play while travelling, while working and they go AFK. They just don't bother. Mobile players are not gamers at all. They have many limitations.
Fatness helping himself by teaching his randoms how to actually play. Big brain
Ahaha or screwing myself when everyone better than me and I can’t win anymore 😮
These strategy videos carry a lot of weight when they come from a legend of the game. Really like the map control insight on the Maya Ruins map on how much C controls the battle for B. Please do more of these videos.
More of these Sempai. Love hearing your thought process. 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Thanks 🤙
Love these keep it up!
Ty ty I’ll try
Finally. This is the content that viewers want to see bro. Please make more tutorials like this.
I hope to, but in terms of time streaming is currently my best option.
Thanks HRF! I think most people watch your content because they want to learn how to play better, and so instructional guides like this are the most useful content (at least for me anyway:))
I’m sure. The streaming side vs the video side has pros and cons for both y’all and me. So I’ll try to find the sweet spot
@@hisroyalfatness instructional videos are great, but you also often explain why you do the things you do while streaming already, so that’s also great!
I'd love to see more of these, although I already learn so much from your vids because you do such a great job of explaining your thinking when you make decisions in game.
Thank you!
I already miss this guy ❤
Basically, memorize every tank and know how they should be played and then hope that both your team and the other team play that way. Great advice. I mean keep it simple.
Then there is the use of the Nomenclature and acronyms make it especially clear.
Thanks for the tip fatness! I actually been doing the lineup reading for quite a while. And everytime my team has a very good lineup and actually capable to just push the enemy and end them quick, they throw and I'm the last one alive, just as the usual.
Still do my best to farm damage so I can go back to the garage with dignity
Been playing blitz for 9 years, and still get value out of these kind of how to's. Very helpful especially in my playstyle where I very much love to go against the meta.
An instructional video? Keep them coming.
I’ll have to think of some other skilled topics to make vids on in the future. Due to time constraints it may not be super often but when I get the chance I will :)
Sweet intro! Getting to be a stream pro!
Thanks! :3
is no one gonna talk about the 10k damage 7 kills game in the background at the start? that was insane
Thanks 😂
Finally this! I have waited forever!
Maybe since the start of time… thanks for watching! 😂
Wuaw! This is what we're waiting for. Great video! 🎉🎉
Ty
Awesome information!! Thanks Fatness!! Will be sharing with my clan!!!!!
Appreciate it!
Thanks for all your efforts!
Np! Thanks for supporting 😊
I appreciate the video, Fatness! Even after 9 years of playing, I still learn a lot from people like you. Contents like this is so valuable to players.
THANKS FATNESS for this video. Very informative and a much better use of my time than any other youtuber.
Appreciate it 🙏
Thank you so much for making this, it was a very well put together video that will probably be watched for years to come. Too bad we couldn't have been friends in high school lol
Thank you 😊
You did extremely well on the video @hisroyalfatness I love the quality of your work, thank you for sharing your wisdom with us on reading lineups and how to use the information!
Thank you and glad you enjoyed! I love making quality videos so I’m quite happy it is well received :)
This is really super helpful! I play on the EU server and sadly the game play has deteriorated over that last year. Hope everyone sees this!! And for those of you who just sit in the spawn and wait for the enemy... TAKE NOTES!
Haha yeah even on NA gameplay is wacky. I think in part because there are a lot of auto loaders so one sided games are frequent. Hoping the future balance changes will slow gameplay down a bit
Love the regular video!!! Thanks for the content! You’re the best!
Appreciate it!
No lies, back in 2016 I was 42% wr and after learning to read the map and lineups I currently sit on 54% career with 60% 30 day winrates, 1.9k avg dmg and Very Good/Unicum WN8 in 90% of my tanks. This is not a FPS were sniper aiming or mechanics pay a lot, your strategy is 75% of the winrate.
100% on that last statement
Please make more vids. This is awesome
If I have the time I’ll certainly try!
I've noticed I tried to read the enemy lineup more after watching HRF do it before this video and I'm going to try to use these tips as much as I can. I've been stuck around the 49% mark for a while and currently at 49.76.
Hope to improve this way.
Almost 50! Reading lineups is just one skill needed to improve tho and I hope to cover many others in the future
Haven't seen you in ages! The years have been good to you lol. Ok, was mostly the hair I was talking about haha
Haha thanks! I pretty much only stream now days but felt like making a video for old times sake. Especially to highlight some important skills :)
Love the regular video and thought process !
Thanks :)
Awesome vid, top work. I don't think Bushka covered this in this kind of depth, that said I never remember that much ... basics for me bro.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🍻🤙🏽🇦🇺
Thank you!
Great work on this Fatness! We appreciate your time!
Thank you :3
This video... far exceeds any training or education that WG has done ... 95% of people don't know how to read the line up ...let alone the map... thank you... now we just need to convince all of those players that they don't know what they don't know... not to mention... reviewing the lineup and the strengths and weaknesses of the tanks on your team and theirs... and finally... reading and recognizing which clans/players are on your team ... the old motto of "no clan no camo no good" is very pertinent to whom you can trust and rely upon and who you cannot ...
this is why I wish WG would color code your teammates based upon their skill level... players below 40% are red, 40-46 orange, 46-50 yellow, 50-56 green, 56-60 light blue, 60+ dark blue... this way every player on your team can instantly know their abilities... because I can't tell you how many times Ive been blocked by a red/orange player, or how many times a red/orange player has been ~20-40 m away and have had zero clue what SOS means let alone see the red players shooting me while they are in lala land ... I just want a way to know who on your team is skilled enough to read the lineup, etc...
Good point for sure and thank you. Only issue with color coding is the tunnel will be much higher for certain players 😭
@@hisroyalfatness we just need to get WG to see the benefit of doing this ..seeing how the down votes, the unsupporting conduct hasn't done anything to help... let alone improve the knowledge base of players
Love it fatness! videos are far more flexible then livestreams but you know I support you no matter what
I think live streams are good for learning things like map rotations and positions and how to respond to different situations with or without success. But these videos are much more optimal for specific skill teaching so I do want the make more
@@hisroyalfatness oh yeh totally but there are entire months uv mentioned where you can’t make a single live stream due to collage so these would be a lot more manageable instead of a 5 hr long live stream
Thank you so much, I learned this skill a bit a while ago, but hearing more from you always helps! I'll also show this to my friend who has more struggled with positioning, I think it'll really help him
Hopefully it’s informative!
Love it, thank you so much! Keep up the great work Fatness!
Ty!
The snag is with this video is that the lone rangers who go A on Mayan Ruins, the yolo queens on Falls Creek who dip in the pit near the bridge who won't watch this video because they already know they don't need advice. On the EU server you realise after one day that the RU players either don't watch or have educational videos like yours in their language
Sometimes that can’t be helped I suppose. But that’s where your mid game decisions matter most
Good job bro.. love u
As a new player putting in the work to improve - I appreciate you taking the time to make quality & informative videos.
I enjoyed this vid, thanks. Now I just need to learn the stats for the 20 new tanks every month lol.
You’ll get there eventually! Mostly focus on how they’re played. Some tanks are fairly predictable some less so. It’s the less predictable tanks that matter
The fact that you’re perfect UA-camr with awesome skills ❤❤❤
Thanks for playing everyone! :)
Thumb up first! Royal can also talk about nub ego. Or rather team collaboration, knowing your position, and rise up when u need to…
Difficult topic haha. Just plays as if your team is clueless most of the time is the best bet hehe
@@hisroyalfatness spot on 🤪
Great video! Thank you Fatness! Best personality on Blitz! Other YT's should take notes.
Thank you!
Wonderful video. You're a very talented young man .
I really appreciate that and am glad you enjoyed :)
I have always told myself that you have one of if not THE best iq’s in this game. That is why I watch your channel. ✊🏽
Really appreciate it as always
Thank you for taking time making this video and making us better
Np
Great video I always look at the line ups and I learned some things about reading them now thank you only if all teammates would look at the line up lol
Glad you enjoyed!
Thanx ❤
After watching this video I successfully read an enemy line up and we swept the floor with them. Amazing video, keep up the good work 👍🏽.
Player base needs your tutorials now more than ever!
I love this kind of videos. Keep it up
Thank you!
This is such a great video Jay 👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
Please do more of this type of thing, as it'll help no end, but your live streams are also very educational 👍
HisRoyalAceness done this good 😂😂😂
Thank you :3
Watching the quality of your in game graphics is amazing, enemy tanks look like fuzzy potatoes in my settings lol
Haha play on iPad and record on a 4k streaming pc. Dw my usual graphics ain’t this high 😂
Love the New Video, love the regular Video style, and love the Blitz School idea. Keep doing this please. I know its a lot of work, but its also your niche!
The next one maybe on generic save spotting positions? I feel like some players just yolo in the open since they Dont know where to go to Spot safely and be of use. Also it takes away a lot of Variation each game and gives players a better Chance to Focus on the other variables in the game.
Glad you enjoyed. Teaching skills this are best done through videos for sure
Thanks Fatness! Looking forward to more content like this.
Appreciate it!
It is weird seeing a short video, but also new and unique from Fatness and it is something cool that you should do more now, but that's up to you ❤
Thank you! Can’t believe it’s been two years since my last video :P
Youre welcome, and its very nice seeing a new type of video, but as always keep up the great blitz content ❤
Fatness deserve 100k subs man, thanks for your hardwork o7
Aww appreciate it 😊
The only problem is that sadly most blitz players don’t think like that.
I’ve seen so many lightly armored tanks just turn to the “town” side of the map and get absolutely obliterated. It’s so sad.
Or E100/Maus sniping and so on! Yep it happens and that’s why mid game decisions are more important.
Subscribed my wr of today is already above average because of the advanced reading unlike how I just read the lineup without thinking anything more about it.
Love randos like the ally Kran on Desert Sands. Those players make this game so much more enjoyable.
Sameeee haha. He did quite well
Your 3 hour long Livestream replay was just as informational
Indeed which is why investing 3 hours in a stream is more timely for me, but a lot of people want that info compressed into an easy to consume package so videos have a spot.
@@hisroyalfatness nice
Thank you bro for the video!! Very useful info about how to win
Appreciate it
I'm guessing Fatness malding over teams in his livestream forced him to revisit the "How To" format again. 😂
Just kidding.
Also I think now is the best time to update the series since most how to play videos scattered across yt is fairly old and most are outdated already. The concept is the same, sure, but if I'm a new player I'd be looking for recent videos on topics that I need. Also the game graphics, editing style and video quality has changed over the years. Fatness revisiting the format is an absolute joy to know and will help new players and struggling average players that got into the game after legends like sk8 and bushka (he's back) left the game some years ago. Fatness has become the third hokage of the blitz content creators.
I should maybe consider that as it’s been a while but time constraints ya know
Great topic . Sometimes the situation is like this, some of meds were not confident to go to the meds side , those players will go to heavy side and allow the defense line of meds side to become very vulnerable or even defenceless. If red team has competent meds and they push you aggressively, you will be killed quickly, and then the fate of the whole team is sealed 😢.
This happens often on dead rail. So even a 50/50 lineup on meds side can go horribly wrong. That’s why I often take my TDs to support direction even if it means giving up heavy farm (only if I feel my heavies can hold heavy side which sometimes they don’t but you have to work with what you got)
Playing the game since 2014, still enjoy these vids.
thanks dude this really helped me alot well i can say i started as a real noob hence my name but i improved from a 38%ter to 45.smothing on my career my 30 day is on 51.6% learning from you guys
Hey we all start somewhere! I wasn’t the best during my early days and that’s when the game was easier to play. Just keep focusing on improving you’ll get to great levels. 51% for 30 day is already above the average wr so you doing good!
One of your best, and one of the best WOTB tutorials ever. very very good. Insightful and helpful. Thank you!
Really enjoyed and appreciated the video, thanks for the tips. Love watching your videos.
casually pulls out one of the greatest games ever played in the e4
Heh glad it was noticed
LOVE your videos, and watch your streams a lot. You are a great player and a GOOD person. Thanks for your time that you put in this video. I'll send a thank$ in your next live video for it!
Probably you know all this, but I'd just like to chime in where the problem usually lies.
1. There are a lot of players who are young, inexperienced or casual players, dads, who come back home tired from work and just play a couple games before bed (yeah, that's me). I don't have the capacity to know all the tanks by name, if they are H/M/L/TD, or how they are played, if I can pen them or not etc until I face them. Heck, quite often I realise the other tank is an autoloader after pulling in front of him, 'cause "he just shot". I WISH I could read the lineup the way you described.
2. Don't expect inexperienced players stop at tier 8. WOTB, just like most games builds on the desire of people to progress. Maybe the solution lies elsewhere, maybe experience, expertise should be taken into consideration at MatchMaking. Winrate or rating maybe? But in this case remember, not just your allies will be more experienced so there is a chance you would lose more games. For every 60+ % Winrate Players there has to be a bunch of 50- % right?
3. Horrible teams are a real thing but as I observe the reason for losing is way less often the "bad team" vs how many times I see it people complaining about it in chat. And of course nobody is ever complaining about a horrible team on the other side :D
4. With that said I (and I'm sure most of the other 50- players) am trying my best to improve. I look up tank reviews, watch videos made by you or others, and watch your stream as well. I am creeping up in WR, in a slow pace though as I have usually limited amount of time to play. I hope I'm not the one ruining the fun of yours, and other good players. Thank you for being patient and helpful. See you in the game!
To make it short: excellent lecture!
Thanks I just got my first tier 8 and have experienced non bot mm and I want to cry because of how screwed over I get in my is3. Hopefully this will allow me to actually play better.
Blud dropped a 10k game in the t110e4 and thought we wouldn’t notice 💀💀💀
How could they ever know? Only those who watched the end of a certain stream would ;)
more vids like this please, thanks hrf
I’ll try! With my last semester at university starting up I’ll be quite busy tho :P
Wow, a regular video, and yes, I always look on enemy team base on class, I'll keep this tips in mind, looking on enemy playstyle and its strength, how to take advantages its weakness, I 'll keep this in mind, hope more videos like this.
Thank you! Hope it will help your gameplay in the future :)
Great video hope u do more short video like this it was great
Ty!
Love your work brother
Thank you for the effort
It is appreciated
Appreciate the support!
