How To Kill Atlântico - World of Warships Blitz 

The amusing bit there was that in the last battle a friendly Atlantico took the MVP. ;-)

I burned down 2 Atlanticos with monarch pretty easily. Also, I believe that if secondary overload is active the atlanticos secondaries can reach almost 11km or so.

So, in a 1v1 against Atlantico you want to stay near or outside his secondary range of about 10 km. You also don’t want to try to 1v1 with a DD because he has incredibly hard hitting HE to shut down a rush and the turning to avoid long range torpedoes. Light cruisers are out because Atlantico still 10x380mm guns, and will win a DPS race anyways. Heavy cruisers are out because they’ll get torched before they can really put on the hurt. So you should probably pick a battleship. Then, what battleship? Well, you need to stay away from those 10km secondaries, so no German brawlers. You also need to have a decent amount of F&F protection, so no Japanese. You need some heavy DPS so the Brit’s are out. And you need to have good protection, so the Americans and French are out. Italians would be a possibility, but they don’t get HE. So a battleship with good defensive stats, a very long effective range, high DPM and firestarting. Sounds to me like the best way to fight an Atlantico is with an Atlantico!

Jepp, die goldenen Zeiten sind vorbei .( Sehr wirksam ist auch death from above ;) mit holländischen Kreuzern. Danke, wie immer ein gutes Video, Terry!

imo the Atlantico behaves pretty much like any other solid battleship at this tier, like Roma or Flandre, gets consistent damage, shares all the same weaknesses. Like someone else has pointed out, the problem is simply that this thing's expected performance is not calibrated well against other ships at the tier. But then this is not only an Atlantico problem, newer ships tend to consistently bring up the statistical mean, DZP, Belfast 43, and now this thing. SO nerfing individual ships won't do much, there needs to be a general rework and recalibration for all the legacy tech tree ships

Good video 👍 Love using my cross off dorn=odin Against the Atlantico Not only can it hammer it hard with HE shells, but you can olson get out off there ⚓️💨

Thank you Terry for the advice I really appreciate it. 🙏

the thing with the atlantico is you can get its stealth down to the limit of the secondary's range

I am not sure mate I dont think first and last examples are pretty good ones. First atlantico was just yoloing in trying to farm a bot or something.if you take an actual battle with at least half decent atlantico players best counters are HE spammers like a chapyev or something with enough range(most cls will struggle).Given how rare the cl players are atlanticos are just dominating t8. To actually kill an atlantico in a dd , stealth torp or ambush(you will prolly die).Both needs an Atlantico player with zero map awareness. Cvs the Ultimate bully class, dumpster any surface ship in the game.so it's not a point. HE spamming with bbs,idk i think players should aim for bow armour with AP.still it will take forever to kill one.using HE in a bb is cutting off half of your dmg output.The thing is i won't shoot an Atlantico if there's better targets to shoot at. I mean being killable doesnt make an OP ship balanced.smolensk is killable freisland is killbale but still among the most op ships in the game. THE thing with OP ships is ,there's always gonna be players that make OP ships look balanced by performing terrible with it(good exmple 1st and last atlantico player in the video). A good smolesnk player will always make at least 80k idc how good the enemy team is.Then there's 1:10 nub smolesnk players who get first striked and make people believe that smolesnk is balanced. My point is, if there's a statistical norm that suggests someone will play significantly better in a certain ship than they do will other similar ships,now that's an overpowered ship .for ex atlantico avg is usually 25k-30k higher than other t8 bbs. Note there's a difference between a player jiving with a certain ship and a ship being outright overpowered.

I think Monarch is a great ship to counter the atlantico because it has the best HE shells in tier 8

I played Massachusetts in respawn against them while leveling up Halsey. Got Halsey to level 11 so we had APCS. I’d push on an Atlantico when they were focused on someone else and the amount of citadels I was able to get on them became silly. Of course, it was respawn but I could double citadel on of those at 7km.

I must disagree with you mr. terry... I got myself one of those and I knew from the beginning it was completely overpowered and personally I don't think the main guns are a bad as you claim them to be I know a lot of battleships that would like to have similar guns. And I think we (the community) should be very clear about it and express our discontent with the developers, let them know we are not going to get away with this or else we will get more bs like this... Nowadays Atlantico makes Roma look fair and balance and if we don't do anything now in the future we will get something that will make Atlantico look fair and balance. I really think they should nerf this thing asap(But I mean a real nerf) I own one and would be the first one to vote to nerf this thing. It's for the sake of the game not just because Atlantico herself but also of the side effects that being people bringing their "good" ships to a remote chance on competing with Atlantico.

Odin is a great counter to Alantico,and Richelieu is pretty good too.if u use the the Richelieu defense she can win .Great video Terry thank you.

Fire up a carrier and this is an easy ship to target. Firestarters like the Dutch cruisers work very well too

Terry, Good input I will use.

The vladivostok work good against.. good video Terry..

U saved me from Atlanticos terry thank you

thank you terry, know i know how to anticipate it🤣

Liked the video, but there is something, in the video you mentioned that battleships do have HE shells, that is not the case when you play with something like the Bismarck. An AP dedicated battleship on both main and secondary guns is surely struggling with that thing alone.

My fav antidote to Atlántico is Asashio, with the torp reload commander

Thanks Terry, Here’s a good trick if you have the Cross of Dorn, basically an Odin, with it’s special skill (+25% ap penetration), and Franz Von Hipper with his enhanced apcs---you get the picture, and it works!

I think something that can burn down atlantico easily would be British battleships. They have very effective HE better than most battleships, and they have a great fire chance on the he especially on the nelson.

I went in a brawl vs an Atlantico with a Tirpitz, and it could work if the enemy team didn't focus me down along with an Atlantico. But yea normally that is why you shouldn't brawl one of those things. On the plus side, just pick a good BB to do the job at range.

I think I got the Atlantico a bit late, when people had figured out how to handle it. It has one of my lowest win percentages. But I do love having those long range secondaries.

Is Edinburgh able do deal with Atlantico well? Knowing Edinburgh is ap only loaded shells and trying to stay away from the secondary range. Any advices dear experienced players 🙏

It is funny that you played the Odin because I was going to ask if the Odin was still worth owning now that Atlantico is ruling tier 8? I don’t know if you can test this, but I have gotten several citadel hits on the Atlantico with my Alabama aiming at the B turret.

Atlantico is getting so overused that it is getting out of control. Especially in the T8 Respawn mode, it was impossible to enter a game without triple Atlantico on each team. I am not sure why, is it because of the long range secondaries?

I hate playing this way but I just use Harlem against it .. reverse and bow in .. lots of plane drops.. I learned how to play Dutch cruisers so I could know how to kill them with Italian and German bbs but now I’m actually playing them with all these atlanticos around

Oh here it is i forgot i watched 😁 Sorry for requesting on sultan Osman video 🤭

Fun ship!🤗 I rang up some insane 200k+ games in respawn with it... Personally as for BBs I found the new German line most challenging to tank with because of the torps...

My initial reaction was to agree with you on this, but after a few weeks of both playing and facing it I’m not so sure. The number of times I’ve been matched in t8 games with two or three Atlantico’s on the other side has resulted in me avoiding t8 (and t7) matchmaking altogether. I’ve even had battles where a majority of all ships in the battle have been Atlantico’s. Granted, Roma’s, Belfasts etc are a bit OP for their tiers, but I’m starting to think that the Atlantico is OP enough to be toxic.

I burnt one down today with my Mikhail Kutozov 💯 I went nose in reverse and he followed me 🤣

Hey Terry, what would you recommend for me to buy from the shipyard right now? The Prinz Eugen or the black Freddy?

Owh Terry this is Blitz , You should try kill Atlantico in real WOWS m8y

A large ship's enemy is a tiny one with fast firing guns.

Can you do a video on how to eliminate the Austin?

I thought the Odin has 305mm guns.

Well done. I don't really understand the hysteria about the Atlantico - sure they are annoying and over-powered, but they aren't invulnerable...and I hate Friesland and Smolensk far more.

I got one currently sitting at 85k+ avg with over 150 games,my highest for a t8 ship Ngl this ship is pretty op lol

I disagree with Terry about the main guns. Maybe it's my topped out captain, but I'm getting frequent citadels and great accuracy at long range. It's an easy ship to play and perfect when I'm just in a mood to blow shit up. It is easy to counter and easy to ambush with DDs but I can take on multiple BBs with little problem.

Honestly, this ship needs a nerf And let’s be honest, over powered ships are coming into this game really fast, it scares me.

About her secondaries: it is not the" best secondaries of the game"! It is a tier VII cruiser main battery! And yes this is the ship I hate the most of the whole game, because it is toooooooo overpowered: example: with my tier XIII Bismarck in 1v1 she smash me, and me I just make her loose 1/4 of her hp ...! But thanks to your explanation, next time, I would stay away and shoot with HE.

will you finish road to z52

I do the same with the vladi switch to HE lol

hmm i got it quite late and only played about 3 battles with it. it really wasnt as op as people always say. however i played a lot of matches against it in a north carolina(i decided to touch that again) and didnt have too big difficulties

every ship have high explosive shell can melting that atlantico and british ap cruiser can do that too because they have torpedo..

Luckily I don't have any problem fighting this things at the moment because I just got black Lexington I'm practicing so yeah I'm having fun hehe

Thanks for the video Does cruisers do a good job on those Atlantico 😂

Uhh, Terry, you SHOULDN'T be loading HE in a RIchelieu when facing an Atlantico. Richelieu is one of the few BBs with sufficient AP pen to penetrate Atlantico's armour but to sum it up, the way to counter Atlantico is: 1)Throw all your HE at them(up to CLs only) 2)AP bow/stern(BB/ships with good Alphastrike) 3)Torpedo assassination(yes, Asashio, I'm looking at you) Here's a video from another RU-vidr demonstrating how to counter Atlantico with a division: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tl6rw5mq30w.html

Smolensk and Friesland: First Time?😏😏

Oh look, the ship that currently destroys Respawn and Blitz Royale modes LMAO

I use the kansas with my maxed out commander and I destroy them with ease and thats with planes on top of me.

Maybe a few of my opponent players watched your video, because my Atlantico’s win rate dropped by 8% today 😮

Aloha

In other words… base all of your games around one singular ship. Said it already but… cmon lol

Take Shima rush and release fck ton of torpedoes end of story

I've raged in chat cause of this ship

I have one game where is found two atlantico and kill them with kansas😅

I don’t know why everyone upset ..they will nerf it fast! Remember the tier X BB Cristofo Colombo.. that got nerfed real fast and WG will definitely nerf Atlantico because they won’t sell anymore tier 8BB premiums otherwise

Nothing wrong with Atlantico, she's just a force to be recognized with. The real problem of this game is the sheer number of lowskilled and brainless players who can't play in a team and only know how to go Yolo solo forward. These are crying the hardest now because WG gave us a hammer to beat them done. It's a reward for always carrying the stupid. I have sunk many Atlantico's like you described. WG shouldn't nerf Atlantico. The bad players need to start to think.

Theres is nothing ... Im dead serious when I say NOTHING, that can stop a triple division of Atlantico bieng commanded by experienced players ...

Those things broke last respawn, no reap skill just hit forward and let secondaries do the work. Hopefully they will nerf them soon

The pay to win meta is getting old 😔

She can be burned down by HE spammers bruh if anything is overpowered it is the Smolensk Indomitable Kaga or Saipan Atlantico is nothing compared to those not to hard to kill too I set 10 fires on an Atlantico with my Aki and finished her with torps she is not scary compared to those
