This is obviously taken from the 14.0 PTS, and the buffs are just as silly as I thought. No idea why WG thought this ship needed em, popularity numbers? Twitter: twitter.com/flamuchz Discord: discord.gg/Flamu Stream: www.twitch.tv/flamuu Insta: instagram.com/flamugram/
@@wombat4191 Not really, jinan still has the awful USN 127MM ballistics where as Smolensk has make believe railgun 130s, Smolensk has more effective gun power, once you get close to Jinans max stock range it's almost orbital bombardment.
You see the problem is it has depth charge racks instead of the aircraft drop. So the spreadsheet figured it made sense that it needed a damage buff to HE and torps.
If anything ship based should have better ASW in both damage, AOE because you actually have to risk yourself into literal fist fighting range, Chasing a ship that moving at around 50% of your speed as best case scenario ( say average sub moving for 20kts something and your average DD nowadays go for 40kts ) which need a lot of catching up before you can actually attacking them
Some incredibly aged ships get no buffs or only get altered through UUs(which requires a deal of grinding) but this thing "needs" 4 different buffs? my Kremlin weeps
@@PronzershreckenBecause there's too much people spamming HE which mostly rendered your armor useless. And no, you can't get a good position because carrier loved it when you get good position that always limit your movement and AA fire
@@volknetai.3690 Yep, then you match that with lower range and poor dispersion compared to the overall, add the wooden AAs and limited repairs and you've got a very good combo to make you greatly appreciate your first ship line being CHEEKS when you dont have a preset team
it is said that popping hydro in spawn is the sign of a bot, but my experience is that, especially among co-op players, they really think it will spot botes on the other side of the map.
If you get single DD hide in your smoke and enemy has 2 russian radars, while your only Salem it's sad. Otherwise Jinan was already ok. They added 32mm side plating and guns reload 3s if not wrong. I really think it needs something other than buffs.
Flamu ive got a JInan with za zenbing in it and its realy good and now you say the buffing it it will put 40 yes 40 deep water trops in the water at one time then sa get his elite buff if you hit a ship 3 time with torps they get a boost on rel;oad time seprate to the reload booster
lol I think this is the first time I have seen one of these ships played... I guess I didn't realize a few things and I am going to take these little bastards more seriously.
wg and playersbase deserve each other. i bet the playerbase just gets blown up in this ship where you have to have some sense of selfpreservation. and WG just sees bad numbers and doesnt know what to do other than buffing the first thing that comes to their mind - regardless of if its actually an issue. same story like the old YY radar DD wich was strong in comp, and then WG nerfed its dpm because of that.

JTR said that jinnan was the closest ship to colbert. I guess WG has decided to make it even closer
It's basically a Smolensk now. With more torp power.
If u see this on escort its hard to push than smolensk or colbert.

As a Jinan main, I see this as an absolutely rare WG W
What was its fire chance base before and after?
It's crazy that they keep buffing the best DD in the game 😎
You see the problem is it has depth charge racks instead of the aircraft drop. So the spreadsheet figured it made sense that it needed a damage buff to HE and torps.
Yes, yes, they clearly saw Colbert and realized how underpowered this ship is compared to it.

As someone who actually loves to play Jinan I just can't wait to try this ship live. This thing truly became the tech line Smolensk
This is better than smolensk coz of its torpedo carpeting the whole ocean😂
I'm super excited for these changes. One of my favorite cruisers
make Potatoes great again.
So because morons get One shot in this thing bringing the average damage down, it needed a buff? Genius.
Remember Jinan becomes useless when your DD players are dented.
then buff DD-player-brain instead of the jinan ^^
Flamu's mouse after this match "I need to rest dude."
Don't you just pressing LMB to ripple fire?
You think it is strong untill you need to spot yourself.
then play like torpedo boat. you have low concealment and long range torp
Maybe Yodo will be buffed too this way :D
Sorry best I can do is faster rudder shift.
@@a_stone Too fuckin true.
Yodo only need to trade its reload time with gun rotation time.
Sometimes i think that if i turn the turrets fast enough i could be a helicopter.But you are right.
"wtf is arsonist?" wdym??? How do you not know
Some players are just that bad or have never played high enough tiers to farm that award.
No audio on this vid for me for some reason.

my Kremlin weeps
Kremlin is quite good in competitive setups tho, making it more difficult to buff her.
@@forge16hanadamaintenancedr43 Unfortunately that's a fact ye, it's insanely frustrating to play outside of competitive/ranked matches tho
@@Pronzershrecken she could use a UU that improves long range performance at the expense of survivability

Love how you're getting grey like me. Own that. Gave up on wows about 3 years ago but still love your videos.
My favourite ship, so this buff is fine.
Thanks WG
People probably complained that smolensk in operations starts more fires...
it is said that popping hydro in spawn is the sign of a bot, but my experience is that, especially among co-op players, they really think it will spot botes on the other side of the map.
So when is WG going to buff the playerbase? (looking at you, Adatara that grounded in spawn)
it's Insane they are not buffing the old ships wich really need it like gearing or Hindenburg
but they buff already OP ships XD
If you get single DD hide in your smoke and enemy has 2 russian radars, while your only Salem it's sad.
Otherwise Jinan was already ok. They added 32mm side plating and guns reload 3s if not wrong.

They should buff all ships to compete to newer release ships. Older boats dont have the tools to compete with them.
I love the Jinan. Before you guys complain about the buffs think of us below average players. 😂
Flamu ive got a JInan with za zenbing in it and its realy good and now you say the buffing it it will put 40 yes 40 deep water trops in the water at one time then sa get his elite buff if you hit a ship 3 time with torps they get a boost on rel;oad time seprate to the reload booster
People still get deleted in it moment they spotted while trying to smoke up
lol I think this is the first time I have seen one of these ships played... I guess I didn't realize a few things and I am going to take these little bastards more seriously.
This thing is just absurdly looking Colbert with torp minus engine boost and hydro, wtf
And smoke
You didn't expect WG devs to actually play their own game, did you?
wg and playersbase deserve each other.
i bet the playerbase just gets blown up in this ship where you have to have some sense of selfpreservation.
and WG just sees bad numbers and doesnt know what to do other than buffing the first thing that comes to their mind - regardless of if its actually an issue.
same story like the old YY radar DD wich was strong in comp, and then WG nerfed its dpm because of that.
Nice comback
You people really dont understand where WG Is going with this ships ( Pan america) and those buffs. They wanna make the game more noob friendly
So they removed smolensk and then they do this. Totally braindamaged devs
#makeHEspamgreatagain
Jinan is buffed because its stats is really bad
I tried to be the first comment
Bot some guy called flamu got here first
how broken is jinan???
....best discussion is to uninstall 😊
