"This guide is not about having fun, it's about winning," he said, barely suppressing his laughter. 🤣
No fun
If you're not having fun in this game, find another game. Why play a game that isn't fun? What does that get you? I find hourglass matches so stressful compared to PvP anywhere else in the game because nobody is there to have fun. They just want to have a epeen measuring contest. Really? In this game where you eat bananas wrong and puke on people? HAVE FUN PLEASE
@@SeventhEve what do u mean nobodies having fun in hourglass? I fucking love it and have a lot of fun. Plus, he was joking. Learn about jokes before u comment
For me I'm only having fun if I'm winning, so it's one in the same for me lol
@@SeventhEve not having fun is how i have fun😊
The trinket adjuster is the most important role on the ship
I forgot to mention this
Lol thats me! Glad we got some recognition
LMAOOOO! 💀
You can turn that off in settings but it doesn't stick so you have to set it every time you fire up the game. Same with the messages etc.
@@bobwoods1302if you are on pc, you need to reset to default your controllers binds to stick or save any settings you changed.
"win or learn" is such a badass ending to that video. 10/10 video! I think you've inspired me to start trying HG. It will be a painful process, but if it teaches me good naval in the long run I'll definitely be better for it.
Win or learn, number 1 attitude
Oh its painful 😂
Helming is quite simple when you get the hang of it, but it can be very chaotic and overwhelming in the beginning. You did a great job of explaining it. This will be a huge help for the new crowd of PS5 players coming to the seas!
Big up ps5
When are they coming? And will there be cross platform shared with them?
We hit the eas yesterday and yes there is crossolay @thelastwoltzer
@@thelastwoltzer its here, and yes, full crossplay or controller only crossplay(inc PC players on controller) is the server options
i love turning wheel in pirat game
This is a real love
This is an S++ tier video, haven’t seen anything that has explained all of this so well before, feel like I could go on a solo sloop 100 win streak now.
Go for it mate, believe!
Couldn’t agree more
Very excited for the helm snipes guide
In-depth snipin guide coming soon
@@massivespongeYeeeeeessss. I can finally not get yelled at. You‘re my saviour
Yayayayayaya
What about solo guide. I found it hard to balance the priorities in different situations@@massivesponge
dw dude, i got you.
click on bad guy to win
I usually cannon, but I always make sure to take the time to thank my helm. A cannoneer can only be as good as the angle and speed that they have.

sponge on the hole til its practical
She sponge my hole till I hit cannon
crud if you reply to this i will kick a hole in my wall
Another crud classic
Hey Crud.
True
Everyone making “helm guide” videos but this one my fav so far 💪🏻
Based Beckoning Beauty, triple B
The best combat breakdown video I've ever seen after playing this game for 3 years
👀👀👀 we gamin
"Win or learn" I like it, much better than the commonly used "get good". Furthermore this is the absolute most comprehensive PvP guid I've ever seen! Most other videos just give fragments of information I already know, but this video I actually learned something from, very top-tier
Gotchu
Personally, I just wouldn’t sink.
I NEED TO TRY THIS
When someone's clearly better in combat i just run and when I can't run away, i run into a nearest reaper, world event and if that doesn't then i sail into the red sea.
@@thedarkone5049that’s so cringe
@@thedarkone5049 just fight
@@thedarkone5049 You're not going to get "better in combat" if you don't just fight. If you're willing to lose everything by going into the red sea, just fight it. It's either over straight away or you surprise yourself and gain confidence/learn something.
One of the best guide I've ever seen. Amazing work with good hints and analysis!
Big up bona
Epic guide. Wow. I learned more in this one video than in all the hours of watching other streamers. Subscribed and definitely will be watching you on Twitch!
Based
about repairing wheel, you repair only 1 or 3 on a sloop but on brig and gally you do that only if both boats are stationary. if someone's doing a circle on you you often need at least 2 planks on wheel to keep angle (especially that on gally when back mast is down it blocks shots going to helm)
Yeah, hence why I said this is for sloop
@@massivesponge yeah i know, just pointing out as you said most stuff applies to bigger ships
Man, thanks a lot for this guide, I've been playing sot for about 400 hrs and now I want to fully dive in pvp sweatiness, your tips will help a lot.
Good shit
Absolute W guide as always, thank you for sharing your knowledge master Sponge
Big up knowledge
Oh man so much in depth knowledge that, Ngl I understand why spread shot is going to screw over sloops, the way it fires will kinda make it so no side is safer
I think it’ll be fine :)
Let’s gooooooo. This is the one we needed! Now we need a bilge guide😂
Wha
Saw rule #1 and was hooked. Great video!
Big up rules
This is a great informational video! Thank you! 🎉
No worries haladriel
I am impressed, you perfectly nailed it on that one, big ups sponge
Big up max
thank you very much for this guide. i think its the best one ive seen
Big ups seeing
Great guide and fun watch!
Big up the V
This helm guide helped me further my understanding on the meaning of life.
Same
Hey new PS5 player here, this guide is really useful and I love how in depth the left vs right side of the ship was, I'm the helm for my sloop and I find the enemy circling us and not the other way around so I need to get better
Real
Thank you Sponge, this really helps. I have much knowledge about beiing Helm but through this i got a bit of a Updated look at the meta and stuff. Been having some pretty tough fights lately in HG bc enemys are just so fking sweaty. But this motivates me and keeps me going thanksalot 😂❤
Big up helm
Amazing guide water absorber, I’ll keep these tips in mind next time I dive on a sloop. Now make that sniper guide😼
Big up snipe
amazing understanding of the game!! i wonder how much naval will change with the new mechanics in the upcoming seasons
Prob not too much
good to see crud goblin mastercrud taking helm lessons
Based
Is there any deeper, more useful information than this? Thank you so much for this information GOAT👍
Big up meshcling
Nice Vid man. If there‘re goining to come more Pvp Guide for The other Roles (Flex, bilge and so on) i think im gonna leave my subscribe. Keep it up boi
Sloop don’t have flex or bilge, bilge is helm
im the only one in my group who can pass a field sobriety test with nobody even drinking, this guide taught me some shit i didnt know
Based
Thank you for making this. I realized that my crew often times prioritizes the mast WAY too much.
Just ur crew? Not urself?
keep up the good work mate
Thanks gamer
this was super helpfull thanks!
Gotchu
wth this guide was SO good. My crewmate always trys to cooridnate cross-snipes, but he usually does it whenever I'm not ready or available, so it never usually works. The only time we actually get a kill like that is when we both snipe at the same time without even communicating to each other. XD
jerry is REALLY looking forward to the sniping guide... frfr
This is real
Best helm guide I've seen!
Any cannon guide in the future?

At my sister's graduation Alton Brown was the speaker. He said: "85% of what you learn is from making mistakes. 15% is from watching other people make mistakes." All you can do is learn and do better yourself. Can't control others or use their faults as an excuse.
Real
A in-depth guide for hitting snipe shots furing naval battles would be awesome.
Also show the one where you reload at the same time as loading the cannon ball
Reload while shooting is in guides playlist
@@massivesponge oh okay, I'll check it out, thanks!
using this for my pve adventures thanks
Big up pvp
Thank you Mister Sponge

Stellar guide
We guiding
So the most armored area is on the left side. Noted. So if Brigs is attacking us. I’ll make sure use the most armored area and use my pin point accuracy gun shot to blows the holes to Brigs as much as possible.
They called me The Gunner for no reason. Yes, I can use cannons and lead the shot with 80% of accuracy at quite decent range. Long range might need a timer shot. To estimate their ship speed and cannon travel time. Then adjust it to keep the gun at bay. I used to do this alot of times when it comes to Brigs raid. T cross it and damage them as much as possible and then runaway. Making holes as much as possible while also disable their compartments. I usually do this just to keep my ship afloat. Brigs are annoying for me. And I’ll shoot any Brigs who dare to get close. I always Brigs as hostiles. Heck, sometimes if I found an opportunity to found a random Galleon I usually sail towards it. If Brig keeps following, I’ll make sure the Brig is fighting the Galleon. Sometimes I distract them with Skeletons. Making your sea be part of your body. Take all advantages if I can. Solo Sloops can be rough at times. But I usually never going down without a fight. And I’ll make sure if I know I’ll never make it out alive. I’ll make sure Brigs going down with me.
Noted

Random question that's not entirely about hourglass battles but what's your opinion on firebombing sloops cause I got called an idiot by a sweaty duo sloop cause I as firebombing them and my counter was it gets them off certain vital parts of their ship due to them not wanting to be standing in the fire
It does nothing, very easy to put out and helpful for draining water
Damn, I always look down while bucketing out of habit. I never stopped to realise that it didn't matter and it is just more work to aim if there is a boarder.
Yarr
I think I do this as well, old swabbie habits die hard
Excellent
Based
One thousand hours in this game but i still learned usefull things :)
Also i'm sorry i'll stick to sword/sniper and rely on blunderbombs to defend against boarders. I like to tell myself it's because i mostly solo sloop but i simply find loosing less unpleasant than using a blundie x)
Trust me, you will learn blunder if you try it
thanks
No worries
big ups we didn't lose we learned
Exactly
I would totally like to see a second channel where you do stuff that's not SOT. Stuff like other games, basketball, IRl, ect...
👀 potential for this on massive sponge old
Good video, this should be the intro to sea of thieves lol.
Intro cinematic
Thanks Sponge🫡
🫡
Does the hole calculation apply to brig too? For galleon it’s less likely because it has 2 floors and on the bottom there are no objects
Idk
Thank u oh great Mr. Sponge for blessing our unworthy eyeballs with this most fabulous helm guide to ever exist
Correct
This is so good! Had me laughing my ass off too. "f@#* your mast" lol so true
Based
What are those white gloves? I can't find them on the wiki. Gold Leaf maybe? I found them but they aren't listed on the gloves page for some reason
Gold leaf, they came in season 11
there can only be one sponge. ive been on youtube longer than you. therefore i am the senior sponge

Big Up ⬆️
True that
"win or learn" is such a good tag line
And attitude
@@massivesponge O7
I was really hoping you would put this in there but when you are holding helm keep the enemy boat in line with the lantern on the side of your ship or as close to it as you can. Doing this will make sure your MC always has shot angle. If you struggle with angle a lot this is a quick way to find it. On brig it is the little rope between the second and third post on the handrail and on galley it's the lantern again.
Interesting
Perhaps the best sea channel on TH-cam, in my opinion, but... dude, you should get dentures...😁😅
p.s. Although it makes the character look like a real pirate, those fangs. Maybe.
Big up teeth
if you solo q a sloop does is your enemy always going to be a solo or can it be a duo
Always solo
"win or learn" cold af
Based attitude
Best Helm Guide on YT! I wish you would have made it earlier.
Real
Appreciate the tips bro so stoked for PS5 release 🙏🏼 #winorlearn 🌊🔥
#winorlearn will take you far in this game
Great guide, I noticed not much emphasis on taking fights where you’re going south east, or mentioning catching wind in parallels, do you think these not particularly relevant in hg?
- an old pvper who hasnt played much since hg
It’s definitely noticeable that waves are bad on NW, but it’s much more important to orbital rather than parallel just because people want to go in one direction, the fight takes place in a circle after all.
Any advice when fighting a bigger boat as a sloop
Full sail, keep distance, get kills (either one balls or snipes), board LATE
So is keeping lefts good on all the boats or just the sloop?
Just sloop afaik
Now I know how spin wheel and patch hole
Big ups spinning wheel and patching holes
3:16 Finally! Someone says it.
It’s crazy the crosshair placement on some sotters
Now nessie needs to make the ultimate cannon guide
Check guide playlist, this guide exists :)
love the vc indicator in the top right all video, funny to picture some swabbie drive past and hear schizo hg rambling
Real
hey bro howd you get that alliance plaque on your mast thats sick
Guild grade X
How do you get that coudrin bucket?
Season 10 plunder pass, or wait a year and it’ll be in shop for doubloons
Is blunder snipe still go-to? After they added new weapons?
Yes
its been a long time in the making
This is correct
How do i fire the canon faster. Ive encountered players that can almost rapid fire their canon on a sloop.
There’s no rapid fire, just load and fire straight away
Is there a possibility of doing it for both brig and gal (most stuff still applies for both ships but there is some differences)
No, I don’t play those boat sizes because I live in OCE
@@massivesponge valid excuse (OCE is mostly a dead region with live service games)
Sponge, my teammate and I have been fighting some really insane crews and the one thing that sinks us very often is that some of these crews have such good cannons that they keep making wheel trippled and knocking me off of wheel reps. Even with consistent snipe pressure they break wheel and we land up getting both sides of the boat opened up. Any counters?
Vod review
YES JEDGING RIGHT NOW SPONGE VIDEO APPEARANCE
Jedged up
Sponge how do I get those white gloves you have on?
Outpost
Could you possibly make a helm guide for the brigantine?
I don’t play brigantine
That ending. 'Win or Learn' is SOOOOOO True in this game and I feel like that is the mindset you need to have in order to excel in this game.
A lot of bad or new players dont understand this and they blame arbitrary stuff like, double gunning for example, for why they lose. Nah bro, you still will lose with that mindset. You need to have self reflection and improve on your own gameplay.
10/10 guide btw
Big up mindset
