Taking caps and spotting is really important but it seems like a lot of dd players, even myself sometimes, forget the number one rule of combat: survive.
I truly believe the longer you survive the game, the more dangerous you become, especially if you are the remaining DD in the game. You can turn a loss to a win.
Same here SCmaro, I'm so focused on killing enemy DDs and getting those caps it often leads me to be far too aggressive. Really trying to realize when it's time to fall back for a moment or two
Like the army says "impact goes before cover". So, survival alone will not win a game, else everybody could just hide in a corner. It is just not good to get sunk too early.
@@agricolaurbanus6209 No one said the number one rule was ONLY survive. Particularly with dds whose value tends to increase the longer the match goes on.
great video, the actor who plays peek (that made me smile) I hadn't played in like 3 months and getting back into destroyers... yikes. I had lost my moxie, big time. So I had to relearn the golden rules. For me that's be patient, and always pay attention - situational awareness, use the track locator, use the mini map, pay attention to what red ships have been spotted and where and for enemy destroyers, try and think where they'll go next. Stop rushing into everything, because even smoke can't always save you.
Loved this video! New to WOWS and love the DDs the most. Learned a lot just from this video and thought I was watching a Twitch. HaHa! Thanks for posting and hope you did well with your fishing. 😁
For me at the start of a game, I always Blind Torp the Cap which leads to initial capping, never sit horizontal to the cap, I always have my stern facing towards the enemy team and my bow facing my team, so that way if enemy Torps come my way it’s easier to dodge. I was waiting for this one but pretty much already is all these.
Gosh Peek I didn't know you're an fishing enthusiast...now I like you even more...really enjoyed the goofing around in your last live stream on wows lately...petri heil for your tournament...go get the biggest specimen in the contest✌️😉
Thanks for the tutorials, I think they are a terrific resource to help a newbie like me to get up and running as a productive team member in this game. I have not been able to work out how to get the camera Overview up though? Is that something that can be done in the PC version?
9:50 how tf do you view Charlie as an escapable route based off where they will spawn? Am i fucking up thinking about spawn positions off the start? I would have figured wide A or hidden left side b
Seems some folks never miss, in co-op I've had them shoot from the other side of the map,out of my range, and never miss, or over the top of a mountain on an island, and not miss. I'm not talking about the bots.
Im a newbie tier 2 almost 3, sometimes I run around wide and attack a carrier, I had a hogo or something one shot, ship had a sliver of health, but he got me sank before I could get the final sink shot, maybe I should of rammed the ship.
I've only been playing 3 weeks and I''m already sick of cheating scum who can shoot over island tops and not miss. And then there's the cruisers that disappear from radar. I thought only battleships could do that.
