So you mean it isn't a good idea to keep jumping off right after returning from the ferry while your ship is under heavy fire? Try telling that to my crew mates.
I love how this not only taught me how to be a better boarder, but a better ladder-guard as well. Super informative video that taught me so much despite having over 1000h of play time (been playing casually since 2018).
As a Helm, having your boarder(s) NOT DIE is all I ask from them sometimes. Just be a distraction degrading their ability to do anything. Anchoring, getting kills, stealing their crates, all that is gravy.
I agree. Every second that someone on their crew is distracted by our boarder is another second of advantage for the rest of our crew. A good boarder doesn't need to kill their whole crew. He just needs to stop them from fighting back as long as possible.
Man This was a great video. I've played since the beta but never thought of my boards as a tool for psychological warfare, just saw the blunt damage of imobilizing, burning and killing player so everytime I just got tapped on the ladder I was essentially useless but not anymore thinking about it this way! 🌊🏴☠️
If you on pc Change your shortcuts to occompany bilge and pvp Example: 1 = plank 2 = cannon ball 3 = bucket 4 = food 5 = throwable This is so it 10× easier and faster to react to sitautions without spending so much time in you wheel
I always tell people that being a good boarder doesn’t necessarily mean killing the other crew but just annoying and distracting them from repairing and getting on cannons
I really doight the grate bail works at all...idk everytime I had to bail and I tested it even in super light situation only let a little watter in 1 small hole patched it and only enough to get rid of all watter with 1 bail...then I tryed it out bailed through grate and every time the watter would just go back into the ship...idk maybe I'm doing something wrong when I bail through grate but it just never seams to work for me and always seasm to be better to just go to the stairs and bailout the and off at the stairs.
Could you make a shorter video on how to watch boarders like a pro bc as a helm I can keep angle and shoot but I don’t hear boarders (silent board) and u don’t know when to watch
For galleon, please don’t use blunders for anything other than disrupting pressure recovery (through rudder or grate) and very very rarely hitting them off anchor (if they’re bad and going for anchor while under pressure with a boarder in the water)
Next you’re gonna tell me not to use curseballs or something crazy like that! They’re in the game for a reason! If you “competitive players” can’t handle something that’s in the game, then maybe you’re not as “competitive” as you think you are.😂😂🤣
Also if the enemy does this alot take a few steps back and allow the border to go through the animation (like just off the ladder) the Blunderbuss as a boarder to counter this is barely peek a bit over board and drop a little bit to check for a guard if no one get on and refer to the video
@@rambo-cambo3581no he means the ones who don't move and shoot you repeatedly without going anywhere. I've seen them myself. They just keep shooting at you from the middle of the ladder when you try to shoot them.
Yeah. I went up against Lawson. We actually fought him 3 times, and we won twice lost once. It’ll be in the upcoming “Fighting Streamers” video! Thanks for commenting to drive engagement!
Just a quick note camping captains with most good crews will do nothing as anchor or wheel is key yes you need to live but if they are fine and you are a team-mate down then they will just win
This is true. If you go for a board and your MC and Helm fail to continue the lower pressure, then the enemy team can recover, send their flex up, and now they have 3 people topdeck. But if you're in a situation where their flex and bilge are down, and you only have bilge down, then it's a 3v2 on cannons in favor of you. So sending the boarder, where now their helm HAS TO WATCH YOU, now makes it a 2v1 on the cannonline. And 1 guy cannot hit enough lowers to keep your MC and BILGE down forever. As long as your MC and Helm are occasionally shooting the other crew's MC and keeping him in check (and hitting lowers) then you playing captain's and hiding is always a good thing.
That example I provided is actually a pretty niche scenario, let me explain. I didn't hammer it home in the video, but one of the main reasons you go for a board on Galleon vs Galleon fights is literally to just get their Helm off of cannons. If the enemy crew has flex and bilge down below, and their MC and helm topdeck shooting, then they have 2 people topdeck (obviously) --- And 2 people topdeck can easily put in enough lowerdeck holes to FORCE a flex and bilge down below if they have enough time. But if you send your MC over to the enemy crew, now their Helm HAS to get off of cannons to watch ladders, meaning that now they only have MC on cannons (1 person.) But here's the "niche" part. Yes you are correct, normally flex is the main boarder and MC is secondary. In this niche example I gave at 16:53, the scenario was: **Flex and bilge are down below, while MC and Helm are uptop** In this scenario, Flex was about to be topdeck because bilge was able to catch up with the holes, but he still had to be down below for another 10-15 seconds. So in this example, instead of WAITING for those 10-15 seconds for flex to be topdeck, you send MC over now. Reason being, if you WAIT for this 10-15 seconds, good crews will probably put in more holes into you during that time, so now Flex will be forced to stay down and will not actually be going up top. But if you send MC over, then the enemy crew's helm WILL be forced off of cannons in order to watch boarders, so with only MC on the cannons there's very little chance that 1 guy will be able to pump in enough holes to keep both your flex and bilge down below. ANYWAYS. That was all a little advanced and just a little too niche. Yes you are correct, flex is normally the main boarder and MC is secondary in most situations.
@@kaijoi8938thank you for the reply! All of that makes sense. One last clarifying question, is flex the second border coming over in this scenario? With Helm and bilge on cannons?
What about how to close out a fight? Like my duo and I crept up on a Reaper 5 at FOTD, absolutely blasted them with cannons and fire bombs, boarded, killed them, they spawned and somehow was able to repair their ship and would not die despite numerous EoR and Blunderbuss shots and we ended up losing to them like ???
Well, I’m assuming this Reaper 5 was a galleon. Now with galleons, “blasting them with firebombs and cannonballs” doesn’t actually do anything. Hitting lower deck holes into their ship does. I’d have to see the VoD to know for sure, but it sounds like you guys didn’t have any lower deck pressure onto the enemy boat, so they had time to respawn and kill you. If they had 8 tier 3 holes at the bottom of their boat, then they would’ve sunk immediately. So hit more lowerdeck holes next time before you BOTH go for a board. Now if it wasn’t a galleon and it was just a sloop or brigantine, same rules apply. 1 of you can go for a board, but the other one needs to stay on your ship pounding lowerdeck holes into the enemy boat to sink them. Firebombs take 2 minutes to produce a hole, and the 2 holes it does produce takes SO long to sink them that it doesn’t matter.
I more often than not lose 1v1s. A lot has to do with poor decision making I’m sure. What are some things I can do to land my shots and clap pirate cheeks?
If you’re really trying to get better at aiming, then you should download AimLabs (free on steam) and practice 30 minutes a day. This will make you much better at aiming. But who wants to do that? Only thing I can really tell you is to NOT rush your shot. Lots of people panic when boarding and they think they have to shoot as fast as possible and go for this insane flick in order to kill the enemy. Just relax, and make sure you hit your shot. Don’t panic and shoot constantly without actually aiming.
Average flex going for a board Current objective: survive😂 Ps i would love to see a video on what weapons would be best for each role, considering there are now two new weapon types, you already said that bilge is usuallu best to have sword/plunder but you havent really touched on other roles, would like to see a deep analysis on each weapon type for each role😊
Bilge = Sword/Sniper OR Sword/Blunder Flex, Main Cannon, and Helm = Blunder/Sniper There's no "Oh maybe I should use the double flintlock, pistol, or throwing knives instead" --- it's as simple as you go blunder/sniper.
@@kaijoi8938 well i guess yeah on hourglass when expecting good players, tho im sort of used to the mobility of the sword coupled with the range and damage of the sniper, im mostly using the new weapons for the commendations as im not actively looking for pvp as long as my left hand is still dysfunctional🥲
MS Codezy (1 handed player) is a top-comp player and is very good. Your 1 handedness doesn’t mean you can’t be good. Also. The movement of the sword is cancelled out by the fact that you NEED the blunderbuss because it is a 1shot kill weapon. Without the blunderbuss’s 1shot and knockback capability, you have no way to ladder guard against good players. So blunderbuss is a necessity. And you need a long range weapon for ranged fights, so sniper is also a necessity.
The Strat called lazy board doesn’t work against good crews as they will always watch how many are on cannon line and if only 3 people are shooting in the opening broad the helm will react
It doesn’t **always** work against good crews. Correct. Luckily even if you do get guarded and they kill you, then your boat is still super far away that your helm can just peel off of the fight and reset it.
@@kaijoi8938did not think about long range still it is not a good strategy seeing how the opening broad usually is the decider of a match but gotta say I agree with the whole video just a shame 90% off people still won’t understand the distinction part. Seeing as it relieves pressure for ur bilge. Tho I have seen crews and my crew to only have one guard the boarder in quarters and keep shooting and communication his location so the people on canons can go off them when he’s a threat do I do understand that getting rid of the boarder is more important. Another thing I think u missed is when to board. It is helms call but boarding when ur boat has a lot of pressure can be good but is risky so boarding when flex is up is usually a good play. And shooting out just to blunder back and then merm back is also a good thing to do.
@@kaijoi8938I started learning gally when hg came out and me and my old friend used to watch it videos to learn how to play the gally so thanks for giving us a good start. It takes a while to actually learn the best way to gally and I think it took about 4 months just to hit lowers consistently. Gotta respect u for sharing this info with new players.
I'm fairly new to SoT, and tbh, pvp in this game is a lot of work. I mean, I don't put this much effort into real life. 😅 Plus, all the og pvp crowd and hg sweats have played for years and know too many tricks and exploits for a noob to bother with. I just get spawn camped till I sink while they laugh. Being a runner is more fun for this reason. I like to just troll pvp'ers, (especially lvl 5 reapers) by placing crap cheap loot up front on my ship for all to see so they chase me for as long as possible. My record is just over 2 hrs, and all they would have got was around 1.5k worth of loot, but they didn't get a thing or even get the kill as I cannoned off my ship to an island before they finally boarded me, luckily found a powder keg, swam out under their ship while they were looking for me and...💣💥 😂 You want my loot, I promise you're gonna work hard af for it, and you'll get basically sfa for your time and effort if you do get it. Bett imma have my fun though. So gg's and all that. 😂
@@kaijoi8938 Nah I have reasoning, I know him lol but I'm actually just joking. That's something he'd say if he saw me to be honest but anyway I'd rather play games with him than joining randoms for a fight that's for sure. 🤣
I'd say a good 50% of the people I play with are in the SoT official discord. Although I only join when they ask for 1k hours or 500+ allegiance, so it does make my life slightly easier.
sadly this really good guide becomes less helpfull once the stupid harpoon gun gets added and every noob can freely spam swarm ur deck without any skill for boarding needed anymore but great video good explaining :)
@@kaijoi8938 your not smart ik what your doing, your just saying this so you could look smart ik you deadass made this as a "good flex guide" about 90% of this video is false info lol also u banned me from your discord for NO reason.
If you truly believe that then I’m sorry. Now I agree that as for MOVEMENT strategies on a sloop and brigantine, I didn’t explain as in-depth it as Galleon. For example, on sloop you can stand in ammo crate and grab the ladder through the window to juke the enemy crew. Or how you can snipe people who are on wheel if you stand behind map table on a sloop. So yes. When it comes to “The Boat” fight, yes it wasn’t the absolutely BEST when it comes to sloop and brigantine. However in terms of it being “completely useless” as you put it, is wrong. The Damage and Water fight is still the exact same thing and can be applied to all ship types. Your first goal is still to “Not Die” and your job is to distract the enemy crew by turning their wheel, dropping their anchor, and sniping them from the water. But also, the “movement” on a sloop and brigantine is so much less than a galleon. Since a galleon is SO MUCH BIGGER than a sloop and brigantine, there’s obviously going to be more movement strategies to talk about on the galleon. So like I said, if you’re simply talking about “The Boat” stage tactics and strategies, I agree I did not go as in-depth and explain all the different kinds of movement techniques like I did on Galleon. However to say something like “This video is completely useless” is such a silly thing to say since the Damage and Water phase applies to all ship types. And the skills I did show on sloop and brigantine are still valuable.
This is amateur tier boarding. A good boarder isn’t even noticed and gets away scot free loot and all. What you’re doing is just your typical sea dog boarding everyone can do. Show me real skill, boy!

16:53 if flex is top deck, is MC the one boarding in this scenario? Doesn't flex normally board?

You want my loot, I promise you're gonna work hard af for it, and you'll get basically sfa for your time and effort if you do get it.
Bett imma have my fun though. So gg's and all that. 😂
Nice.
Hey man what cannon flare is that
I saw more than one myself
Red one is 110k and just red
I wish i could be a good boarder like you.
Crazy vid
Ok, I will not die lol
What's Massari doing in this video he's just a bot LOL
Rude. Literally no reason to say that kind of thing.
@@kaijoi8938 Nah I have reasoning, I know him lol but I'm actually just joking. That's something he'd say if he saw me to be honest but anyway I'd rather play games with him than joining randoms for a fight that's for sure. 🤣
finally!!!
What if my blunderbuss doesn't one shot the mc?
Just ALT-F4 at that point
@@kaijoi8938 fair
what is BSG
BSG = Blue Sail Gang
I fought u bout a month ago travesty if u remember was a gally fight
dont die got it
Did all of BSG come back or just Kai?
The rest of BSG are either friends with cheaters, or are cheaters. So it’s just me now. BSG is more of an idea now, not a group.
Frfr? Dang, how the mighty has fallen. That really is a shame tho. Good on you for sticking w it tho. Time for solo Sail gang
Sorry if I'm late to the party, but who were BSG and what did they stand for?
@Skye_the_guy a memory, nah back when the game had a comp scene they were one of the comp teams.
@@tommybahamii oh dang kinda sad I missed that honestly, what did BSG stand for though?
Its impossible to find anyone to play with in the sot discord because the moment they join they go "uhm 100 ping?" Then leave and ghost you
I'd say a good 50% of the people I play with are in the SoT official discord. Although I only join when they ask for 1k hours or 500+ allegiance, so it does make my life slightly easier.
@kaijoi8938 not much of a point cuz I'm only 100 hours in and haven't played much hg so not a lot wants to play
I believe. Just record your gameplay and have someone vod review it. That’s the best way to get better fast.
damn. can u both review some bitches?
@@rain.l4621have u tried doing open crew ? gives u a random player i met some good ppl that way
Ldg and soap needs to watch this now sold me last night i was the boat bitch
W vid
im a helm and i will never need this bc i never leave the ship
Helm board always goes crazy
@@kaijoi8938I feel seen
Nice vid 🫡
sadly this really good guide becomes less helpfull once the stupid harpoon gun gets added and every noob can freely spam swarm ur deck without any skill for boarding needed anymore but great video good explaining :)
Harpoon gun is a great addition! I hate people who use blunder bombs for ladder guarding it's so cringe
@@sSteppingStones sounds like ur one of the kind i was talking about in my comment
nope sorry
Ermm it’s called fatwalking not funny boarding smh my head
NOW I CAN PLAY SOT
Nope
Keution play life
HI :)
Man you deleted all those random videos that were posted that had nothing to do with SoT :(
th-cam.com/video/fWNLBBhcLXo/w-d-xo.html
if u really wanna get better DONT listen to this video💀💀💀
This video was made as a joke, and any advice in the video should be taken as sarcasm.
@@kaijoi8938 your not smart ik what your doing, your just saying this so you could look smart ik you deadass made this as a "good flex guide" about 90% of this video is false info lol also u banned me from your discord for NO reason.
Perks of being the owner. I can do whatever I want! 😉
@@alyssaOnLDG *you're not smart *you're just saying *yo- oh you got that one right. congrats you're 1 for 3 :D
@@makaiosr wtf are u talking about
This video is basically how to board only a GALLEON. You said almost nothing about sloop and brig, so this video is completely useless.
If you truly believe that then I’m sorry. Now I agree that as for MOVEMENT strategies on a sloop and brigantine, I didn’t explain as in-depth it as Galleon. For example, on sloop you can stand in ammo crate and grab the ladder through the window to juke the enemy crew. Or how you can snipe people who are on wheel if you stand behind map table on a sloop. So yes. When it comes to “The Boat” fight, yes it wasn’t the absolutely BEST when it comes to sloop and brigantine.
However in terms of it being “completely useless” as you put it, is wrong. The Damage and Water fight is still the exact same thing and can be applied to all ship types. Your first goal is still to “Not Die” and your job is to distract the enemy crew by turning their wheel, dropping their anchor, and sniping them from the water. But also, the “movement” on a sloop and brigantine is so much less than a galleon. Since a galleon is SO MUCH BIGGER than a sloop and brigantine, there’s obviously going to be more movement strategies to talk about on the galleon.
So like I said, if you’re simply talking about “The Boat” stage tactics and strategies, I agree I did not go as in-depth and explain all the different kinds of movement techniques like I did on Galleon. However to say something like “This video is completely useless” is such a silly thing to say since the Damage and Water phase applies to all ship types. And the skills I did show on sloop and brigantine are still valuable.
god sea of theives naval fights are so boring
Sea of thieves is boring*
This is amateur tier boarding. A good boarder isn’t even noticed and gets away scot free loot and all. What you’re doing is just your typical sea dog boarding everyone can do.
Show me real skill, boy!
Goodluck!
So you make a whole vid about a scenario when enemy ship is already not moving?
Bruh...
Uhhhhhhhhhh……………
Goodluck!
