I play it like it is a big DD. In centercontrol I have hold the island in middle serveral times.. and my aa are good enough to get clear sky an keep me a live from a CV focusing me. Love that... Often cvs stops focusing me, because many planes doesn't return... And the others DDs can't win in a gunfight. On others maps I mostly flank with it. If the treat is to big, like if I meet 2-3 BBS, i smoke up, turn around and just stealthtorps... If I can flank, I play the annoying ship, and others ships use a lot of energi and wasting shells on me, plus turning there turrets the other way so my team can push. So for me it is not so much about the damage, but more about the disruption. That tactic do I have a good winrate with...
Yeah the Austin is like a dance. You have to skirt in and out of the action. If you commit too hard you will die miserably, but if you just go to the threshhold. The damage is insane
My Marceau awaits to gun duel a Austin lol. Who needs Austin when you own a Friesland and a Smolensk. Two ships that can do damage more reliably and safely. Plus mino and Colbert are great for constant dpm. Austin is on the extreme end of niches when used right. Although it does so quick
Sure, but how boring do you sound now? Smolensk and Friesland is ez dmg. Not impressive in the slightest. The play style and gameplay of the Austin is very unique. I am happy they added a CL that people won’t rush to for ez winrate. That means I can have to myself heheh, btw can’t wait to smash your Marceau on NA ❤️
@@BobLyn what I’m saying is that I already own enough ships like mino that imo are better than Austin most of the time. The one nice thing about Austin is that I get to citadel it in my Moskva or Stalingrad
First time that I know of that I made a YT video getting absolutely wiped out. You made a fantastic play and I was overconfident that my guns would wipe you out. Close but you totally outplayed me there.
Imo the Austin needs 1-2 more smokes, and like 1-1.25k more range. Only being able to really fight when your RR is up pretty much makes you useless for the other 80% of the match. I have literally been 1 shot before by a CC and if that’s possible then they need to do something . If the ship is that vulnerable then they need to give at least a few more smokes or make the range 13k plus so it isn’t so easy to hit.
I love u son
Thanks dad
I love this ship as well. It's so much fun. I just wish they would fix the bugs with the RR ending.
Agreed, it kinda ruins the ships whole gimmick

@@Redgamingdino4005 yeah in that sense you are right, I am just bustin your balls. Austin is too unique to be OP

Yeah, it was an interesting move, but the amount of overpens you got on me was very unlucky. I was sure I was dead there, but rng was on my side
