    FYI, other than the already wicked abbreviation of Guys Kiss Destroyers, GKD is also a commonly used Chinese netizen term. It is used when someone is very thirsty for some nsfw or 18+ anime pics and asks for more. The direct translation of the phrase is 'hurry up(exclamation mark)'. There is also another term called 'awsl' that is shown in the video. It means Ah I am dead in Chinese. It is used when someone encounters something that is of pure cuteness and gasps.

      It was literally a decent chance to win vs no chance to win... or was storo afraid of repair costs? Kappa
      It's ofc not his fault. Team was simply not good enough to coordinate their advantage. Deserved win by GKD.

    I thought it only happens in randoms but StorozevoiGnevni in the Somers proof us that it doesn't. If he stay alive and doesn't rush the Stalingrad, they lose. If he tries to rush the Stalin and fails, they lose. If he rushes and kill the Stalingrad but he also dies in the process, they lose. If he managed to rush and kill the Stalin and survive, they win. I don't know what was his mental process, maybe he was too nervous but i think its something you should very know very well in competitive (and thats coming from a non-competitive guy). I comms his clanmates should had been yelling at him to rush the Stalin from behind, i suppose.
    Great match from both sides, gg wp.

      @crimsonscarlet5482 4 роки тому +3

      @@watzyh Ohh, i see. Well, i think the team call was wrong. Even if the enemy Somers was close (something they didn't know) he still should had gone from behind because:
      1- It was the shortest way and they did not have the time. Yes, if there was time, the torp would had hit the Stalin, but so does any torp launched from any angle. He could had launched torps from his spawn and could had hit him "if there was time"
      The moment he hesitated and then moved forward was a waste of time because:
      2) He only needed to land 1 torp, and he had (most likely) 16 torps to spare
      3) Going from behind limited the amount of guns the Stalingrad could had fire at him, only the back turret (most likely). Unless he was radared from long enough to allow the Stalin to get his turrets into position.
      4) By going from behind he forces the Stalin to move forward and likely to be shoot at by the cruisers on the other side, thus increasing the chances of sinking him.
      It was win or die situation, it required fast reaction but in the heat of battle is understandable that he did not consider all that. Just saying that if you are losing, don't hesitate even for second to do a risky move.

      Or the OMNI vs OM KOTS Final (forget which one, it was a few years back) where it was down to one DD, all they had to do was kill it. Had double-digit HP left and they couldn't land a single shell. It was border humping. The guy shooting at him was panic firing in the final seconds instead of trying to predict and land a solid salvo. Was heartbreaking to watch.
