World of Warships - Now I Have To Kill You All 

More like a full auto 50cal.

if it takes this to win, abuse it :D

@@MetalMachine131 more like a minigun

It is the fabled cheat of cooperation. Of course, this one has the added benefit of using two ships that complement eachother. And it is not as bad as that secondary speced carrier with two destroyers doing nothing in the whole game except laying smoke screeens. The latter example mean that three ships did the job of two, artificially making the carrier look good. Here we had a destroyer doing destroyer thing (smoke screens, spotting, torpedoes) so the combined effect was net positive compared to uncoordinated cruiser and destroyer.

Jep absolutley NOTHING to be proud of.....disgusting!

Smokelensk

Witch has no smoke firing penalty, like every other cruiser in game.

@@terot8341 You fucking what? Are you serious?

WG: Kutuzov is also OP

@@19Crusader91 It does but due to its LOW caliber guns 130mms "Russian dd guns" its penalty is very low. At least i think thats how it works.

Is that a guy who is armed or a guy who only has one arm?

Damn funny comment spit up my coffee 😂👍🏽

@@bent404 I've never seen someone so armed and unarmed at the same time. Ridiculous advantage in the red corner, this match is rigged

I had fun, until the Smolensk ran me down.

@@VypreStrike Cv's dont count :P

No one on his team did either.

Spreadsheets say everybody had fun. Who are you to question?

@@AH-pq7yw haha, WeeGee hide behind their spreadsheet War Thunder is better for this reason

Watching it live was extremely fun because BFK and the people in the voice chat with him were flipping out and the chat went crazy.

Completely agree. World of Warships is incredibly boring to look at these days.

smoke up, pew pew pew pew, pause, smoke up, pew pew pew pew....

@@thomaskositzki9424 well I'm not saying he's playing that ship wrong - that's what you supposed to do in a smolensk. But yeah still a good bedtime story..

@@ibnu9969 No, I didn't mean to imply that he did wrong. How could I, he got 450k damage. :D It's just very campy to play. I am Brit CL fan, so I don't blame him at all. ;)

It's almost as if, at a glance, you'd think it was a secondary build BB. Impressive that no one gave him a random detonation with HE as happens to some others.

Yeah, that's what I keyed in on. I'm new to the game and lucky to get 100. Some games, my claim to fame is I spotted the 3 ships that blew me out of the water :P

15 guns firing every 4 seconds (I think). It’s like walking auto cannon fire onto a target; once you get the range, you can drop 225 shells a minute once you get it tricked out. Combine that with a player who clearly knows how to play the ship, and this becomes possible.

@@scottdrone-silvers5179 Make that 16 guns with a BASE reload of 4 secs (can be further improved :))

@@danielhall4024 My only warships knowledge is from Jingles, but iirc detonations only happen if you don't have a flag equipped, and only noobs don't equip detonation flags.

Out of 18 tier 10 cruisers the Smolensk is 15th in win rate.

@@Sfirodrepanoskarxarias wow you really are trying to defend it, i remember jingles saying something about "russian bias" in a video and says that russians think that the bias is AGAINST them XD

@@Sfirodrepanoskarxarias Doesn't make it less toxic, especially when the OP was noting Wargaming's hypocrisy. It is also a very good example of bad balance because it encourages bad gameplay. It's like EBRs in WoT, those encourage yolo scouting and "holy crap I have been spotted 15 seconds in, better hide" gameplay.

@@marcochen9117 No you are wrong. I am not trying to defend it. In fact i rarely play it because i find it boring and underwhelming. What i am saying is this: The abysmally, unspeakably, unfathomably BAD playerbase is trying to find scapegoats for their immense ineptitude and one of those scapegoats is the totally imaginary "russian bias". PS: I am not Russian, these are not russian letters in my nickname ffs...

@@itatane The OP is stupid. First off the Mino is in my opinion vastly better. Second the 130s on the Smolensk don't pen SHIT (27mm WITH IFHE which messes your fire chance can even pen the bow of same tier cruisers). The Mino has only AP, yes, but it also has the best AP penetration angles, even better than the Des Moines. So it's fine.

:(

Yes, I agree as much as I hate the Smolensk

If you follow Bfkfrlyfe on Twitch, you will know that was probably his favorite kill of the match.

And Honestly, that is the whole point of the video. This was about great teamwork, and working to each others strengths to win.

Agreed it's about as interesting as a non-brawling BB or kiting CA replay.

@@SpeedyCM I think it's worse, because those are usually not totally OP and annoy the crap out of any other player. That Jingles is promoting this kind of play is actually kind of annoying.

@@KellyMallory Well honestly by itself the Smolensk is not totally OP and can be countered by any even marginally competent team. In this case though divved up with a smoking DD it can be very potent, but that is also the case for any team in warships using actual teamwork no matter the ships. It is teamwork which is OP.

@@SpeedyCM I take that you haven’t had the pleasure of meeting an 18km smoked Smolensk.

@@SpeedyCM Sure, a bad player is a bad player, no matter the ship... or maybe just an unlucky player, since luck plays a big part in the game. That being said... it's pretty easy to be good in a Smolensk compared to most other ships. And what personally anoys me about it is. While other ships might be as OP they aren't as damaging to the fun for other players. There are several "firestarters" in the game. Some less, some more annoying. The Smolensk is on the far end of annoying. And about the argument its not the ship, its the team... yes. But that's always the case and doesn't change the fact that some ships are OP. Even if a brilliant player is in a Smolensk, it's still OP. ;)

Agreed.

First Jingles video I've ever disliked. I have no interest in watching T10 seal clubbing via an invisible minigun.

Right

Its 5 pm foe me

lol it's 5:30am for me

Could have been worse. Could have been 2 Smolensk's

yes but a carrier is in every game and requires no team coordination,smoke divison cheese actually requires more than 1 person and coordination...So carriers are pretty broken as playing against them is frustrating...

Another unpopular opinion: it works very, very well and requires some skill to get it to work. I have no issue with using game mechanics to your advantage, even if it's supremely annoying. The Smolensk however I do have an issue with. Overpowered, Russian premium. Please.

Not even close. Carriers are everywhere, have no effective counterplay other than half the team blobbing together for overlapping AA protection. Smoke divisions are rare and require coordination and teamwork - and as we all know, this happens once in ~1000 years, and only during a full moon, when Saturn, Mars and Venus align properly. The bigger problem is that Smolensk is OP like hell. It has good range for this calibre of gun (2,5km longer than Khaba, and 1,5 than Grozovoi, same type of guns) - with upgrades and skills, it can fire at ranges of 19km, 16 of them, smokescreen, hydro, good AA, surprisingly hard to hit citadel, good speed and agility (it is LITERALLY more agile than Khabarovsk, a destroyer) and a bloody heal. This is basically Flint on MEGA steroids, eliminating every single disadvantage Flint had - especially in terms of range (Flint has only 0,5km longer range than equivalent US DDs of the same tier).

Looks like you pissed off the Fanboys, however, shit like this is very cancerous. You can tell there was no consideration on actually winning the game only about farming damage and they just happened to win

Theres a difference in yolo suicide, supporting your DD,s and pushing as one

push to the cap, not broadside to a entire team. Either bow on or lodge himself behind the island. this way the DD doesn't just get hammered by the other side. But instead, potato gotta potato and its broadside time.

i love pushing, i love brawling ,i love getting up close and personal.....but if im in a BB and i see a smolensk.....i go hard to starboard and go in the opposite direction.......i treat a smolensk like i treat a wall of shima torpedoes.....i stay TF away

In a perfect world that would be the carrier's job

@@Legendendear it is,but that takes a brain to figure out,so that rules out about 85% of the entire playerbase

The golden 'inner child'?

Why wasn’t he previously?

I thought, we all liked Jingles, because he is such a beauty, but yeah his humor beats anything...

My favorite Jingles moment will ever be when he trolled Flambass on Twitch once. With he 24. subscription of the channel he wrote: "Two years of this shit and I still can't point to Croatia on a map!" 😂 Flambass' reaction was priceless

RNJesus giveth...

@@claytonwhitman1608 and Russian bias makes sure RNJesus doth not taketh away...

Cry harder

@@frankdantuono2594 EXACTLY!! So Glad to see you get the point. WG won't change what they really believe makes them money, so go with the flow. It will drive someone to angry frustrated tears if they insist on placing their version of reality on the world. This is NOT a historical simulator in ANY way, it is an ARCADE game, so some things will be adjusted for "play balance" (just like the phrase Military Intelligence), and nothing is ever truly balanced, right? I like trying to play every ship line and see how to make them work. Everything has a strength, it really all depends on 2 things: 1) Recognize the strengths of a particular ship; and 2) Adjust your play style to fit and take advantage of the ship's unique characteristics, maybe even using them in very unusual and creative ways. Anything else, like insisting on playing something to its weaknesses is just utter fail stupidity and insanity. And yes for the record, I make PLENTY of my own FAIL MISTAKES and INSANE decisions, because I haven't figured something out yet, or I got over confidant (easy to do sometimes), or I forgot/ignored about something. Like Map/Situational Awareness. USE that mini map like your side and rear view mirrors when you drive on the road, glance at them ALL THE TIME. The life you save may be your own lols.

Hey I have gotten wrecked plenty of times, and even opening salvo deleted several times by unspotted BBs and even CAs while in the Smolensk. That over pen mechanic is not always reliable, and angling and bow tanking are NOT going to help you in any way ever lols. Playing Smolensk really well requires total map awareness as EVERY player on the enemy team will be looking for shots on you... that is, IF they know what's good for them as this video demonstrates. I have had many people charge me around an island, and gotten a full 5 torp spread as their reward ;) This is a ship that is best dealt with by BBs and CAs from bow and stern, unless you are sharp enough to switch to HE in a BB and then broadside delete it. Simple.

I was just think the exact same thing. playing in a division with T9 means a lower caliber of ships to contend with, he was probably trying to break his own record.

Division MM counts the highes tier ship in the division and nothing else.

@@janniszimbalski6652 You've obviously never tried this.

There were two Alaska's and plenty of battleships on his side. If they had been able to push together he would have been toast. But they didn't. So his teamwork beat them.

@@Jpdt19 are you realy asking teamwork of the potatoes in wows? YOu havent been playing very long it seems (jk) In honesty though teamwork shouldnt be factor in this, with how rarely it is displayed in this game, puzshing into a smolensk is a death sentence as the iowa showed, wich means you have to dedicate several ships into rushing down a smolensk, that aloone is sign that it is too strong, that you need to delegate several ships in order to counter one. Besides maybe they would have killed him, but there are enough monkeys of his own team sailing around that would have either stopped them in the first place or would have killed them after, either way there was no winning scenario

@@warsowgamer4fun haha been playing almost 5 years. But I hear you yep

@@Jpdt19 thats sadly the way it is, also one of the reasons why i dislike smolensk and cvs so much, you have to specialy delegate several ships just in order to take a single ship out of the game, but mighty spreadsheet say is fine comrade

Absolutely that and the dumbass rework

You do 400k then

Hold my smoke screen

Out of 18 tier 10 cruisers the Smolensk is 15th in win rate.

If they just made it a choice between smoke or heal I don't think the ship would be as bad. It Just has too much survivability for something that is supposed to be a glass cannon.

Losing 30mm on the side is not a small nerf.

@@Sfirodrepanoskarxarias you’ve got me interested now do you know what the top is?

@@blaynsaw1990 Stalingrad, Petro, Goliath, Venezia.

Then they get perma-spotted by carrier aircraft, making all their efforts pointless. This is why I've quit this game.

Pretty sure it would be a Boyfriend...

Only in America!!!

I REMEMBER THAT ONE!!!

I know I'm late, but does anyone have the link to that?

i'm even later, but i too, would like that link

then you realize fires are 100% healable.

and you can kill a BB much faster with Hinden, Mino, etc

​@@danh7411 100% healable doesn't mean one heal will restore all your HP. It varies between nations, but one BB heal restores 14% of your HP generally. One perma-fire eats 20% of the health of a BB. You can slightly improve these numbers with flags and captain skills, but overall, one perma-fire roughly eats one heal in most scenarios. If you have two perma-fires, and are low HP you will go down even if healing. In terms of theoretical HE dpm of Smolensk is 2 times that of Hindi. And even practically, if you look at the effective damage output of the salvos in this video, he was managing ~2K per HE salvo, by comparison, Hindi can put ~4K per HE salvo in practice (slightly more on unsaturated parts, less if saturated), but Smolensk can put out almost 3 salvos by the time Hindi reloads. And that's ignoring the ludicrous fire chances. AP is also quite nasty, you see 4K to 8K damages on BBs, Hindi can manage 12K, but again, at a lower rate of fire. Minotor is a bit like Smolensk and can actually deal a bit more damages, but can't ignite multiple fires. Smolensk is also weirdly able to tank shells at close range thanks to overpens where the Mino can get dev strikes easily. Lastly aiming with the Smolensk is way easier compared to the Mino thanks to the faster shells.

Fire is the death of any ship. Always has been, always will be, whether on water or in space ;)

@@kakwa and don't you think that in this battle scenario with those BBs and Alaskas, Hinden with 50mm HE pen will have much better effective DPM and therefore have better results?

Underrated comment lol

There are countless comments like this and I don't blame ye.

It can be fun but the other users are a55holes. All critics and big mouths when you don't play they way they want. And avoid ranked battles. All stressed out cry babies

Hahahahaha, too right.

This ship needs to be removed

Yeah 🤣

no that was put the coffin down lol in Judgement day

I quit a long time ago. The game was kinda fun for a while, but now it seems that it's just getting worse and worse with every patch.

Ah womble. So many good quotes (Cyanide too)

At least once you get the thunderer caught with its pants down it is dead. This ship tends to be overpened and has smoke so it has very much the potential to get away.

EU server is much harder than NA server

lol

no no no just nerf it

I stopped watching.

On paper it's a fail div, but the Fletcher is just straight better than the Gearing in the current meta, not just in stats, but in the ships model as well. And it's not the only line that's like that.

@@TheRofllol123 I agree for the fletcher but the fail div is more about getting t8 or t9 when Smolensk might have faced stronger t10 only games and get dev striked...
