Does pretty well against all the classes. Against destroyers the reload is a bit slow, but the accurate guns make up for it, and against BBs you can rip em with AP when they're flashing their sides and then heat things up with some HE when they are angling

Yes! The Molotov cocktail was named in Molotov's honor. As the story goes the Soviets were making a diplomatic push to take land from Finland. Molotov was sent by Stalin for "aggressive negotiations". The Finns told The Russians to F*ck off. The Soviet army invaded Finland thus initiating the Winter War of 1940. The Finns had very little to no anti tank weapons so gasoline bombs were used to fight the Russian tanks. The Finns having such a wonderful sense of humour named the gasoline bombs Molotov Cocktails.
Also credited with being an engineer of the alliance that the Soviet Union had with Nazi Germany at the start of ww2. This treaty is commonly referred to as the 'Molotov-Ribbentropp Pact', after the foreign ministers of the two respective powers.
Guns look great. Ran into one while in a japan destroyer and I was getting citadels so the armor is trash, but I guess that's most light cruisers at that tier.
The ONLY significant difference between this ship and the Kirov is permanent cammo and more AA guns. Otherwise, it’s the Tier 4 Kirov playing against Tier 5&6 ships. Sure, it has more hit points but that’s meaningless going up a tier. You better play this like a battleship. Stay WAY away from ships and lob your shells in. Also, with only 4km torps, you’re only good for defensive shots (if you’re chased and can get an angle on the pursuing ship.
Molotov as in the Soviet politician vyacheslav mikhailovich Molotov from the Molotov-ribbentrop pact, the nonaggression pact between the USSR and Germany before Germany invaded Poland
On a PC the Krov is tier v via Russian Cruiser... It was supposed to get a stronger hull, but wow changed their mind, therefore the Krov has very weak armor and I think tier 6 is not much better except for gun loading time.
love your vids, tbull. thanks! played twice vs. molotov yet. before folks call for nerf... it is vulnerable like any other cruiser. so your awesome gameplay is kinda misleading - played to well ;) jk
Id probably put yama on there if I was making a build just for this ship. Scott would be better than Lutjens in my opinion, as simply hitting more shells will very rapidly outpace the small additional damage provided by the AP damage boost
Just been reading about these cruisers, wasn't really Russian but Italian and WOWS have really gone over the top with its reload, was actually only 2 rounds per minute. I can see why WOWS did this as it would not be a very competitive ship.
@Tbull Molotov or Exeter ? What is more solid in your experience?? which u recommend me to buy first ?? Im cant buy manys premium ships for I test!! You can help me @tbull?
Ok. You've convinced me, I'm buying her. I previously liked the De Grasse as my favorite level 5 cruiser. How does this ship compare to her in your opinion? Edit: First game on Molotov with 106K damage. This ship slaps.
The Russian fleet just began coming into the game about a month ago, and will be fully in probably in 6 weeks or so. What's next after that, we'll find out soon enough
I was guy in the dunkerque that deleted ur Molotov. Kinda sucks that your team but you in a bad spot with boneheaded rushing and bbs sniping. Feels bad man.
Definitely don't want battleships swatting ya in the sides while you're piloting this, but they will feel the same way about the return fire you're sending down range
Damn, Why can't I find this many cruisers to shoot at?>! All I get is BBs and DDs darn you Tbull you win this round!

Molotov was the Soviet Foreign Minister for Joseph Stalin.
Thanks!
And his cocktails can really burn.

What range and was it ap? You'd be surprised how frequently you can citadel in a Destroyer if you are close enough.
@@FranOfBattle About 5 k and yes with the ap
Or if I'm really lazy, wait for tacticangel's video and he'll tell me who it's named after. 😂
Oh, your controller going out?
Cant ever imagine why xD

I love the Molotav

It barbecues battleships badly guarenteed to stack fires especially if they ignore you. This thing is a brawler.

I bought it straightway when I saw it available. Not sure if my opinion matters, but... there you go.
It's a respected opinion in my book 😀
Tbull - Thanks, man. Been playing more recently too.
This is like all Japanese cruisers above tier IV except faster gun reload, faster traverse, and more powerful guns
So literally an atago at tier 5
Way worse concealment.
@@suitednate2012 true dat
@@suitednate2012 And waaaay worse manuverability

Very cool Cruiser!!!
Yep, very solid
Yamamoto and Lutjens would help a bit for the A.P.

Can I play with you on this game because I'm still learning to play it
I've heard you reference your "must sink" list if rostered on the enemy team. I'm guessing this is on that list?
You don't see them too often, but when you do it's a good idea to get rid of it
I don’t know if you mentioned it in the video or if I missed it but does the Molotov have the Radar option like the Budyonny?
It doesn’t.
nice I was waiting for this lol , it’s looks like interesting cruiser. is there any option for radar?
Nope, just the fighter plane

One more week for Duck of War flag..I think its top 75% or 50%, which is really just a few games..
Yeah, top 90%, which like you note is very easy to get
I haven't been able to login all weekend
When will we get a whole new fleet added to the game? Theres still so much to take from PC
The Russian fleet just began coming into the game about a month ago, and will be fully in probably in 6 weeks or so. What's next after that, we'll find out soon enough
It's the Russian fleet... They can't sail anywhere without tugboats and even in a video game the devs have to patch up all of the holes. 😜

Shots there, you gotta take it. No need to feel bad about a nice connection 😉
Tbull btw I’ve been pimping out your channel! You are the our best shot at getting people playing better. Gg
Great ship. Will explode. Beware of over pens
Definitely don't want battleships swatting ya in the sides while you're piloting this, but they will feel the same way about the return fire you're sending down range
We need pyotr bagration 😁
Or maybe a arkhangelsk 🤔
Looks good, might try this one out.
