Yes, I know, it's a Rhein. Why are you surprised?
ARP Kongo, Haruna, Hiei and Kirishima :) also, ARP Myoko, Nachi, Ashigara and Haguro :) and there are the crown gems The ARP Takao and ARP Maya ;) and the best of the best the ARP Yamato
At least only 1 of those shells actually bounced. Go back a few patches and those 5 torp hits would have been Pens.
one german river or the other, whats the difference.
Aren't you watching the replay and reading the names while narrating?
@@MK-rc3pq yeah right, all japanese are chinese! ^^
15:30
Yuro kills Rhein.
Jingles: "He finally takes the Weser down".
Well, both are rivers in Germany. That's close enough for me.
imagine the potential extra confusion if they had named one of the CVs "Main". then people could get confused between talking about a CV main and the CV Main :D
You don't really expect anyone to learn all those fake names WG invents from an empty hat.
No no! That was the Rhein Weser ship!
It occurs whena carrier crashes in the two rivers which did happen during the construction of the Wows version!
@@Edi_J exept all names are actual names of actual ships, not a single one is "invented". So yeah, anyone with a lil' bit of knowledge about WWII can and has learned these names before they even played wows
@@sirzebra The only German CV which ever existed was Graf Zeppelin. Yes, Germans started to convert a cruiser, but still this was far from launch, not to mention naming. Rest was just "projekts" with reality connection almost as non-existent as the Soviet ones. So considering Fuhrer's volatile approach to naming big ships all those "rivers" are mainly WG invention.
Yuro's last shells hit at 997 points... a single point tick would have won the game...
Yeah that was potentially the closest game I've ever seen.
@@purplefood1 You'd have to scour Jingle's channel, but I'm pretty sure I remember seeing a vid he featured where the shells landed ON the final tick to 1000, and resulted in a win for the guy who fired the shots. I think it's called Nailbiter? But yeah, this was a seriously close game.
@@Ritona99 Yeah i was just thinking there's one or two that might have been closer and the one you mentioned might be one of them tbf.
@@Ritona99 what about that one when a destroyer was chasing a BB, it hid behind an island in last second and won.
I also remember one were the guy blind fired the last DD to win the game in the last second.
Mr. Cavour has now learnt about the importance of not being seen...
"Give that men a medal, for his name" German BB captain
You just killed me.
Very on brand
The 899 anti-carrier division was with a tier 8 CV (preferably the GZ) and 2 Musashis because
1. the GZ has fast aircraft that can spot the enemy CV quickly
2. the Musashi has a 32km range on its guns with the spotter plane and has extremely high alpha damage
3. you'll probably only ever face T8 CVs without armored decks
Georgia is a viable alternative - while range is limited by 28 km, speed can negate that and guns are much more reliable
@@stallfighter yes, all good points, but Georgia has no 460mm caliber guns
I was in a MVR when one such division tried this, I laughed as battleship shots bounced harmlessly from my extremely well armored deck, then I focused on the two Musashi and tortured both to death. Kids, when you div t9 bb with a t8 cv, you may see a double cv game with a t10 cv instead. That and the fact once cv starts moving, it is pretty hard to hit from 26km away is probably why this is going out of style.
@@Metallica4Life92 do you REALLY need 32 mm overmatch vs 19 mm decking Shokaku/Kaga, 25 mm of Lexington/Saipan/Perseval and 28 mm Enterprise one? You still cant penetrate UK carriers.
IIRC the standard was to use Enterprise for the carrier in the division.
Looking forward to seeing how many Jingles moments there are in-
Never mind, he forgot his name. There's one.
lol
Enterprise has reported the IJN for sinking her sisters Yorktown and Hornet. She claims the IJN were promoting a toxic atmosphere by doing so. The IJN have reported Enterprise for using hax and refusing to die despite taking what should have been lethal damage on several occasions.
That's when you know you have good Damage Control Party's.
Enterprise has also committed several war crimes
Seeing 2 CVs bunched up together and having free reign to do whatever you want with them is such a dream come true
Carrier: "why are you locking the door and why do you have that belt in your hand?" 😱
BB: "well......" 😏
Except for the fact that the first salvo basically bounced off the Rhein.
@@onepunchbud1472 No daddy Nooooooooooooooo
@@icecaptain9378 too kinky
The ONLY time I've managed that was in a T-4 match with me in my Clemson. Survived long enough to drive between the two enemy bird farms and let go the torpedoes on both sides. Got the Double Strike and Confederate awards as well as being blown out of the water just before the first torps hit so double Flesh Wound as well. Also got a ration of sh!t from one of the CV drivers afterward which made it even more satisfying.
I've had the Clemson for a very long time and like to break her out every once in a while.
"Not that I have any interest in anime..." Hiding kancolle shipgirl figure in his gnome cave...
Got me hooked on anime by talking about Girls und Panzer like seven years ago.
I think it's specifically the ARP anime he's not interested in.
@@RedXlV The anime has quite a few issues, but find the manga, it's excellent.
At 7:30, Jingles: "The good thing about the 14 inch guns is that they don't overpen cruisers"
Yuro: *Gets 3 overpens of 3 hits on a cruiser*
Jingles: "You're not supposed to kill aircraft carriers"
Isoroku Yamamoto: "Jingeru is a man of culture"
11:13 that’s got to be the first time I saw an aircraft crash on a ship
Agincourt enters the chat
i saw that, but couldnt tell if it did damage - should not - cv planes are bad enough when NOT on fire
@@ryanjohnson6654 It's purely cosmetic, fortunately.
Wargaming: you're not supposed to be able to sink carriers!
The battle of Midway enters the chat.
Russia didn’t have CVs in WW2. Obviously WG just pulled that idea out of thin air.
@@Love2Cruise "WW2" is in WG thinking very expandable term. For sure they're already planning something like T10 CV "Yuri Gagarin" as well as T10 submarine "Red October". For Ze Matushka!
that was CV on CV violence thats ok XD
For some reason this comment reminded me of a WWII fact.
The USS Lexington's replacement was put into service so quickly after it was sunk at the battle of the Coral Sea that the Japanese thought it was still the same ship. They didn't realize they had actually sunk her.
@@erynncollier8672 You're talking about "Yorktown" which was heavily damaged (and Japanese even thought - sunk), but managed to be repaired fast enough to be at Midway (and be really sunk this time). There was no "replacement" for Lady Lex...
"Thunderer are ass cancer" yup that's Yuro beat to you
that's hysterical
I remember back in the RTS days, there was a player I saw quite often in battles with the name "AS_BOGUE_IS_ASS_CANCER".
@@RedXlV me having PTSD playing as Zuihou
@@ThomasKrKr I strongly suspect there was an organized effort by some players to keep CV populations low by playing AS Bogue and making new CV players initial experience as miserable as possible.
Gotta love Yuro, but that skin is nearly as much eye cancer....
It's like they were getting in a KONGO line to die by his guns

@@nomad2305 what are you, a ghost?
I feel so bad for EB that he had to carry that hard but i feel even worse for the enemy team seeing the win being literally given away
As the Rhein player I thought we were a worthy sacrifice for the win, but the team just threw it away.
@@arendvansplunter3313 In hindsight you should have drove away west once you saw the two BBs pushing south. That would have given you at least 30 secs if not even more time. Would have helped prevent the throw.

That’s what she said
Sound's like a private activity when "no one is looking"
"All they have to do to win is nothing"
me: they're going to try to win harder aren't they
and sure enough, they did.
My thoughts exactly.
They created the toxic atmosphere by making them so op that everyone is sick of them
Just like CVs
@@EvoraGT430 I ment CVs
@@V_Rhenthys lmao
Hence why WG decided to make something even more toxic to get people to stop complaining so much. (Hi subs!)
I'm happy to see Yuro's video featured again
Good morning Jingles. ^^
ARP KONGO!!! Wohoooo!
Good lad, Yuro. Nice to see you know who Best Girl is.
Memory pills for The jingles. Yuro the torpedo beater.......... I see Jingles I see
"Yuro the torpedo beater" sounds rather dirty.
"We got 'em right where we want 'em! there's no way we can lose now!"
"Oh yeah? Just watch me!"
-Your team, From the dawn of time til the end of days!
Something I've never noticed about this map. At 3:46 the "pink" (it's actually coral) building in the foreground is unmistakably the Royal Hawaiian Hotel in Honolulu, Hawaii, which served as President Roosevelt's Western White House during WW2.
"not that i have any interest in the anime" says the lord of salty weebs
To be fair, it's not Kancolle and is therefore not the one true Kongo (desu!).
“Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory” that’s great 🤣
love you jingles! its 4:52 where i live but it doesnt matter you never say no to a jingles video

I was listening to one of your videos while studying for my linear algebra exam and a new one pops up

"It ain't just that Old Cal [Calvin Coolidge] done nuthin.' He done nuthin' better'n anybody!"
-- Will Rogers
The original collaboration was:
ARP Takao - Atago
ARP Ashigara, ARP Nachi, ARP Harugo, ARP Myoko - Myoko
ARP Hiei, ARP Haruna, ARP Kirishima, ARP Kongo - Kongo
ARP Maya, ARP Yamato and ARP Musashi (skin) came much latter and we don't talk about because unlike the original collaboration you could not earn the ships through events, only purchase them.
Also, honorable mention to Eastern and Southern Dragons for being Myoko reskins in the same vein as the ARP reskins.
Ok, I know what probably happened to the Phoenix and the New York.
At low tiers, you'll sometimes get randomly disconnected in the middle of the match for no reason, and then be unable to get back in. It has happened to me countless times
As a regular heroic Kaga captain, I can confirm the "autopilot bug" has for me always been my own dumb fault. When I've launched a squadron I've hit W too soon and put the carrier into full ahead instead of boosting the planes.
Never boost your planes until they have fully taken off, you are just wasting boost time. They don't take off any faster and there is a hard limit of around 75% speed during take off.
4 kongos, 5 myokos and 2 atago. And a whole shit load of captain, got everything except the hiei
3:20: It was a Tier 8 carrier and a pair of Musashis. At battle start, the carrier would spot the enemy carrier, the Musashi would launch their floatplane scouts and then they'd just nuke that carrier from straight across the map within the first 3 minutes of the match. The 899 "CV Be Gone" division. Using Musashi's and a T8 carrier meant you'd almost always get into a T9 match with the opposing carrier also being T8, so easier to paddle.
"Don't do something, stand there!"
Thank you for having the same thoughts on stationary targets. I thougth I was paranoid.
why i love the kongo. the only low tier ship that has such a far range, allowing you to sit so far away, that you may get detected, but the only thing that can hit you is a carrier. it may be extremely inaccurate, but when the guns hit, they hurt, alot. i was so happy when i randomly got an email saying i won the arp kongo after one of the events. granted, at first i thought it was a fake email, but after some research, i found it was a real email from one of the devs, they just for whatever reason used what i believe was their personal email
Ah the sky janitors doing their jobs! over 100 aircraft and 2 carriers sunk.... man fun for the entire family!
"Actually, Jingles," the problem with the first shot on the Phoenix had nothing to do with auto-lock having problem with stationary ships. If you watch carefully, the moment before he fires, the Phoenix goes undetected then reappears a moment later. Unfortunately, he fired his guns right after the Phoenix disappeared. That means that the auto-lock had shifted to the nearby, but still visible, New York right before he fired his guns. Thus, you see exactly what should have happened when auto-lock is engaged. His shells go in the direction of the Phoenix, where he was aiming, but the distance to target is based on the distance to the New York, which was the ship that was auto-locked when the trigger was pulled, so the shells landed next to the New York in line with the Phoenix.
Watashiwa Kongou! Love the ship, love the Commander, love the anime, hate we don't have the shield and the Super Gravity Cannon but well... :D
Damn love your old man laugh jingles,and oh remember what flolo said "win harder" is what yuro enemy team doing
If EITHER of those BB's had simply sailed away or dropped anchor and threw out fishing poles behind and island, the game would have been done.
I would imagine that team chat had some fascinating conversations going on.
Yuro stays clear of Thunderers by playing tier-5... :-)
They didn't just have to do nothing. Yuro's kill occurred when the enemy team was at 997 points! One more click of points from a cap circle, and the enemy would have won!
Just come back from the gym feels good to be bulking up again missed it so much here in the UK all the best you grumpy old gnome ;)
True. More than often standing still targets are harder to hit. Shells everywhere just like there was no lock on.
Totally correct Jingles. Multiple occasions on a weekly basis where, usually a DD although not always, said Notser-ed ship should receive a gigantenormous paddling. Yet 2 maybe 3 ships salvoes land everywhere but on the target. If you're lucky they might receive an over pen or two. Glad its not just me.
My very best early mornings, here in the States, always start off with a new upload of a Mighty Jingles World of Warships episode! Never stop sir!!! 👍🏻😎🇺🇸
Must be west coast then?
Bc I’m getting them later in the morning and I’m from the Netherlands...
No. I'm on the East coast. I think Paul uploads at 9am his time which is 4am here in Florida...
who needs allies when you have enemies like these
Sounds like a Jingles video title-
@@DiagonalByte heh thanks =D
“..I almost forgot my name there…” 😂😂😂😂 I’m dead
Hey Jingles. No one got banned over the tactic you mentioned in the normal way. Also it was a tier 8 CV plus two Musashi and was hilarious . There were some cases of people giving away the position of their OWN CV, which is griefing.
I found one instance of a chat ban for a triple DD squad, but it wasn't for what they were doing in their ships, but being toxic in the chat.
@@Stephen__White That is correct. Creating a hostile environment for others who are just trying to play the game isn't cool.
2:00 Now now, Jingles. We know you better than that.
The Kongo. My first 'proper' battleship in WoWS, and even though I haven't played for years, still my favourite battleship. Fast, good range, and a looker, too.Armor? Eh, can't have everything.
The carrier thing: 899 Squadron.
T8 Carrier - Graf Zeppelin (for some good reason)
T9 BB x2 - Musashi (range, gun calibre, spotter aircraft)
Graf spots enemy CV and just buzzes around. Weebsashi delivers the good news from the other side of the map.
I think you're doing that Cavour a misfavor. He sat idly behind that island in cover until the ARP Kongo died. As soon as that happened, he started his engines and made a sharp turn as possible. At that point Yuro and his mate could see him and shot at him, but he really tried to get away after his pretty safe spot got compromised.
Having just watched Flambass latest 310k dmg Thunderer video (19/04/21 ish) I find his name change to be most apt... gave me a darn good chuckle. Keep on Truckin' Jingles (and Yuro)
14:17 the only clip you need to watch in this entire show.
Ah yes the ARP Kongo taking a shot at the armor belt of an angled ship and bouncing like it should. It's firing into 25mm of armor belt with 356mm guns. You know armor that is supposed to bounce shells 358mm and smaller. Great clip to show that the player being shown got impatient and took his shot WAY to early. The next 2 shots were the same deal, it took him 4 shots to actually get around to the broadside of the reversing CV.
Wow... they really hit the nail with this game. It looks like so much fun.
"Dude, what are you doing?" made me laugh my ass off here. Well played Yuro, and thanks Jingles.
Finding enemy carrier so close is a pleasant feeling, same one felt by Pvt. Gomer Pyle when he sees Sgt. Hartmann entering the toilet after having waited for him with a rifle to kill him.
1:50 ... *sigh* Must I? ... I must!
* 4 ARP versions of the Kongo: Kongo, Hiei, Haruna, and Kirishima.
* 4 ARP versions of the Myoko: Myoko, Ashigara, Haguro, and Nachi.
* 1 ARP version of the Atago: Takao
You are most welcome :-)
*shotgun cocks in the distance* BACK TO THE SALTMINES WITH YOU
It's the same mechanic that allows you to fire over islands and represents fire control radar.
It only works against targets that are at a constant speed, heading, and are giving you a flat broadside as it aims at the center of their ship.
IE - muppets. Anyone who is moving in a non-straight line, angling, or adjusting their speed simply won't get hit any more than with a normal salvo.
Also - yes, the timer was at 997 points when he got killed.
Yeah, I remember Yuro demostrating how to nuke the enemy CV in under 90 seconds. It was truly glorious! So much salt in the ones he showed as well. So satisfying.
The auto aim is the dead hand of Stalin guiding the shells but they accidentally added it to all nations rather than just Russia. It is very handy when you can't get a proper visual on something as it's behind an island though.
the autocorrection of aim is quite an old thing, it first was discovered when TH-camrs noticed that when watching their own replay back and their aim looked different from the live play.
It was back then already discovered that the aim gets corrected in the vertical axis by quite a lot. I remember one of them doing a side by side of a stream VOD and a replay of the same shot and the height difference what nearly half a ships height. It was something like he was aiming slightly below the waterline and the "correction" actually aimed centerline hull of ship
Not Yamatos, Musashis - its the 899 division video(s):)
Which did get accounts banned because god forbid you sink enemy ships.
@@Ushio01 Are you serious? Did WG actually BAN people for that?!?!?!? They won't do shit about toxic players griefing people, but they will ban for LEGITEMITE tactics?
@@Wolfshead009 From what I can gather the group that got "banned" was a group of 3 DDs and they got chat banned for being toxic in chat, not actually banned from the game. As Jingles said himself he should have looked into it before mentioning it, and likely for this exact reason.
@@Stephen__White Ah, good to hear. While I can understand them discouraging it as it is stretching the limits, it is a valid tactic to limit the other teams sighting. How many people give the advice of always shooting at DD's when they are seen for just this reason?
@@Wolfshead009 The North American side "devs" have actually encouraged 899 fleets from what other people have said. I've personally not seen any myself, but my CV is also fairly safe from them. Go British armored flight decks. haha
I do agree it's a valid tactic, just wish that 1 component of it would get a balance pass. That being Musashi, she just feels to strong to be a T9. Bump her up to T10 and give her some extra silly gimmick like an engine boost or just give her Yamato's sigma+0.1 and bam, she would be far more balanced.
Jingles, right as usual. Winning harder, doesn't work out.
I love the Thunderer, and the more it pisses people off, the more I will play it, to the point of excluding all other. I used to use AP mostly, but since it upsets so many people, I will switch to HE exclusively. I also encourage every other Thunderer owner to do the same, until morale improves.
Absolutely, My MVR loves your thunder, only t10 Bb I can get a citadel hit every time I drop my AP bomb, yes, more thunder I say. FDR also loves thunder, but FDR loves all t10 Bb equally
@@keith6371 I know. You're the reason why no other player should feel bad about playing any so-called OP ship: CV's are the REAL asscancer in the game. 👍
Wasn't the first collaboration. Back when they first released Bismarck as a gold ship, they had an add-on perma camo for walking dead. Instead of just buying the Bizzie, you'd spend an extra 500 gold for the camo. Made the boat look like the liner from Ghost Ship
Got to love how the secondary gunners are capable of missing a freaking aircraft carrier at 1 kilometer range. And not even "Ooooh, just missed it!" either, but "Oh dear, our shot fell 600 meters short!"
Pulled the trigger at the wrong point in the roll.
It amazing how close the match was and the fact that without Yamamotos reload buff it would have been lost. By the time his final salvo hit the point counter hit 997, so if the shells had been just a second longer in the air or had the reload been thet tiny bit longer, the game would have been lost.
Yuro, the man the myth the torp beat master the how to guides master (also damn that name 😂)
Also how did that rhein bounce a full salvo of 14 in guns?
its called belt amour thats how
@@jordanrea2311 armor doesnt care bout rng 😂
@@SilentGamin102 no thats got nothing to with rng if you hit amour thick enough to not overmatch it then the game runs a check list 1 at the angle of impact dose the shells have enough pen. since they are 14 inch guns the pen is rather low which leads to the bounce its not rng its called auto bounce
Right answer is fuse time + extreme angle + HUGE torpedo bulges of Rhein. Check its armor in port, its literally only bulges and citadel at waterline level. Bulges armed 14 in AP fuses and shells exploded before they could overmatch citadel armor (which they could do, 24 mm overmatch vs 20 mm plate) inside torpedo defence, which isnt considered as hull by damage mechanics
Hermelin can bounce Yamato shells - it’s true, Flamu proved it! Hermelin OP!
Jingles, actualy the latest ARP tally count would be 4 Kongous, 4 Myoukous, 1 Atago (as ARP Takao) and an ARP Yamato. There's also a special ARP Camo for the Musashi.
There are 2 Atago's Takao and Maya. I have all of them so i know
Yuro, art department and Jingles. The three things that keep me playing WoWS...
I experience the same exact thing. The game likes to protect people that either goes backwards or are completely in a halt. I just can't hit them when they are not moving. And this happens multiple consecutive times. They start moving, and THEN I see the hits and cits. It's not just you, Jingles.
My experience has been that my shots become increasingly inaccurate if I'm the one not moving, not the target. Also, to be fair, the cavour was hiding behind islands and not doing anything. I doubt he was expecting to be spotted from that small area between islands.
That guy played quite decently actually. He used the island for cover while supporting the Kongo then tried to run away to win on points. He just picked the wrong way to run. Should have just reversed and stay angled.
Finally started playing last week, and I have begun chasing carriers as soon as the enemy numbers deplete. Admittedly, I've been chasing them (primarily) with a Tenryu and an Emerald, but if WOWs doesn't like us sinking carriers, they must be very unhappy with me. Tally : 3 today.
The automatic aiming feature takes into account the dispersion modifiers of the target's camo and skills, while shooting without the automatic aiming system, the game calculates the natural dispersion of your gun.
You can verify this by comparing the shots against camos that don't give any dispersion modifiers and you'll see that the automatic aiming is better than the shots with out it.
Kongo from Arpeggio of Blue Steel is one of my favorite anime antagonists. She is so well written.
man this channel is so good and i dont even play the game anymore :)
You seem to forget Jingles that people will always struggle when it comes to doing things for their own benefit.
When they need to do nothing to avoid snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, they fail.
When they need to do something to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat, they fail.
*shotgun blast* 💀
dude this guy is so funny when he laugh
jingles you get my sub
That is a carry of epic proportions.
Actually Jingles, it was the IJN T7 cruiser that got a lot of fugly clones. The Attago only got one.
3:35 it was the 899 division: Graz Zeppelin and two Mushashis(T9 Yamatos). You couldn't do it against T10 carriers, but going tier 8(graf)-9-9(musashis) allowed to queue against tier 8 carriers. Graf also has really fast rocket planes IIRC(I haven't played but but what I remember)
Then the Graf just rushes to enemy spawn to spot their CV(usually follows the route where the enemy plane squadron came from as that's the route of the enemy CV), spots it and the Musashis open up at 25-30km
The Cavour died on 997 points xD
Truly snatching Defeat from the Jaws of Victory
That was a close one. And great title
Yup, most of my shots at ships that have pulled a Notser go anywhere but into the beached, stationary, ship.
Agreed: unless they're close and broadside, hitting a stationary ship seems to be harder than it should be.
11:14 kamikaze, tennou heika banzai!!!!!
Admiral Burnside strikes again. Amazing how often that happens. Do they not watch Jingles? Serves them right if they do not.
Strangely, that ship looks like it has very modern lines to it.
Well of course, its British!
IJN did a thorough refit and modernisation of Kongou class in 1930s
Heavy cruisers of Takao class have architecture (especially superstructure) that really does look similar to modern missile destroyers,making them seem not as old as they are
You can basically remove gun turret from Takao class and voila you have modern destroyer.
I remember the Squire video where Jingles rammed the Tirpitz with Campletown and said "Get ready for some surprise" *Boom*
Very well played and entertaining, but of course this was completely down to the enemy team throwing. I certainly hope those two BBs got their money's worth of reports.
I recently experienced something strange in my Lyon, I aimed at a Minsk 9 km away and I missed, 4 entire salvos. My guns were on target, but each salvo gave me the full count of 16 clean misses. All while he was broadsiding in 3 of 4 cases.
He was moving though.
"the nice thing about these 14-inch guns is that they don't over-penetrate as much as 15 or 16 inch guns"
The next salvo over-penetrates.
The shot accuracy is also a thing in world of tanks with artillery . Your shells seem to magically hit what you aim for when you are firing blind compared to firing at a specific target.
Not long ago I went out in my Enterprise had a div of Shiki, Yammy, and Musashi ask me to do that for them lol. When totally unrelated to the request just in the process of normal spotting the CV was spotted they all missed their shots on the stationary CV.
