Drinking game:
- Take a shot each time Jingles says "Worcester" in this video.
- Two when he's actually referring to the Minotaur.
Operation Stomach Pump ...commences!
To be fair, it's a fun name to say.
You like to play dangerous games don't you.
When Jingles said "the Worcester and the Minotaur", is that:
a) 1 drink, that was the Worcester
b) Three drinks, because the Mino was the Worcester, but Jingles was also talking about the actual Worcester.
@@InternetEntity😮😂🤣😎👍🍻
How did Jingles not mention the fact there was a pair of Brests on Gigachads team.
Most unlike him.
Simply because we have a true Gigachad in this replay, Brest is for the weak, gigachad energy is eternal.
ah yes, he nailed the very clearly british "Worcester" while the actual one completely ignored him..... never change jingles
Well, Worcester is a British city. Makes sense that a British ship is named after it.
I was starting to wonder how many Worcesters there were in this battle.
Its Worcesters all the day down frome here!
@@wombat4191 You pronounced it wrong, man. It's War-chest-er. Say it wimmee, War chest er, okay.
@@ut000bs woister
10:00 Jingles lost a wonderful opportunity to say: "And then just a couple a seconds later, they also lose a Brest" (gonna love the Frenchies)
14:20 "Focusing his fire on the Brest"
They had two of 'em too...
@@MASSspec1990 What? The enemy team had a pair of Brests?
@@Thurgosh_OG the friendly team.
AP overpenetrates Smolensk, unless it comes from a Russian battleship because Stalinium shells have the ability to change their toughness in regards to the target, especially if the target is a Russian ship on the enemy team, Stalin doesn't like traitors.
Im pretty sure Kremlin will overpen the Smolensk reguardless.
@@jaywerner8415yes yes it will... the only BBs that can somewhat reliably obliterate smolensk with AP are the british with their ridiculously short fuses.
@@enjoyingend1939 and the Italians with SAP
@@hollowhusk5166 is there anyone that plays the italian BBs still? I completely forgot about their existence even as i am grinding down that line. I guess if you aim very well, sacrifice your first born to RNGesus for good accuracy you may even dev strike one with the italian hardened penne.
@@hollowhusk5166sap isn’t ap, it’s sap. Sap for all intents and purposes is just he with no fire chance.
That Shima wasn't playing the game Jingles wanted him to play, but was screwing with the enemy ships' mojo by flanking them and throwing torps from the west. The group responded by sailing back north-ish in reaction allowing the green team's ships to the south to take them. The Shima didn't play the greatest game, but it did the other role a good DD does: troll and distract the enemy to allow others engage.
Most Intriguing and intreresting Jingles title I have ever seen
Jingles got called a boomer and took it personally
Here's a fact, for those BB's that have trouble citadeling a broadside Smolensk with AP, you can shoot slightly below the waterline to citadel the ship, what happens is the water will arm the shell but because of the velocity it can still pen the weak armor of the smolensk, however it is still heavily reliant on RNG, but it will work, obliterated one with my Yamato.
This is an old mechanic and yes this mechanic is still in game people just seem to have forgotten it, since not a lot talks about them.
Also do not do with short fuse AP
Kudos for that Shimanto coming in at #3 n the team list
It's a load of dingo's kidneys that Kusnetsov is guaranteed to activate every single game a soviet ship is in. His emergency heal always activates with no input from the player required. All others demand the player to actually do well in battle to earn their heal.
9:00 - The DD is not being useless on that flank. Who do you think was lighting up the Minotaur, Worcestershire and Roon? Right, the DD! DDs have two roles, cap and spotting. Most DDs, and most people critical of DDs, forget the latter. A DD in the backfield spotting all those ships behind islands letting the allies know where they are, where they can move, and where to shoot, is more valuable than the trickle of points from the cap. Esp since there are 4 ships down there who could move up to the cap since they KNOW where the red ships are, and can use the island to cover their advance. One even has smoke, as you pointed out!
Imagine putting an 18" hole through a citadel (remember: the most important part with a lot of machines) of a ship. Surely that does near to no damage :D
Taffy 3 would like to comment...
@@Jpdt19 Yup, even though a DD or an escort-DD doesn't have a 'citadel', it contains the same and maybe even more cramped equipment. And Taffy 3 took those 18.1" though any hit to the massive brass balls of that crew would surely triggered the fuse's.
Yeah ...
A tad unrealistic.
But remember that AP shells do explode as well.
Very simplified:
HE explodes the moment it hits something.
AP explodes a few milliseconds after it hits something.
And in the case of the smolensk those few milliseconds are too long.
That 18" hole is *FAR* less dangerous than a 200" explosion near said machinery.
And btw. one can see the arcade nature of the game very well because the citadel is essentially as empty as the rest of the ship. In the game that is.
The 18" shell would put new ventilation holes above the machinery, but if it'd hit the machinery itself if would be sufficiently slowed down to explode.
@@ArschvomDienst yeah, and since the citadel is supposedly filled with stuff that slows an AP shell down, my personal recommendation would be that a shell _never_ over pens a citadel.
Even of it doesn't. That's a pretty big hole to patch before the seawater gets in. But if the game modelled angle of penetration with flooding we would see a lot of flooding and BBs camping base
One of my finest WoWS moments was one-shotting a Smolensk with an HE salvo from a Nelson.
Doog tiems.
Did you play in a fail div or how did that happen?
@@wombat4191 Yep. Got uptiered pretty hard. Just expected another quick trip back to port...which I did. But not before I managed to byotch-slap the Smolensk.
doing god's work
Done that aswell, and i have IFHE picked on my nelson 😅 cuz 100mm pen on 16 inch HE shells is just funny😂
@@naggarond it has 102 mm pen by default, IFHE gets it up to 127 mm. You are just gimping your fire chance by taking IFHE, the pen doesn't make that much difference at this point.
The lesson I took from this video was
"Skill doesn't matter if you just sail the Smolensk, make all the mistakes you want because the ship is made for it"
And let’s not forget the obligatory “Russian Get Out of Jail Free Commander that destroys the hopes and dreams of the ship that finally put you in the red”
Yeah, and battle starts with two enemies suiciding (sub and GK). Rupprecht too, actually.
Ha, yes, the famous T10 British light cruiser "Worcester", even if the game dared name it "Minotaur". :D
Don't worry Jingles, the Smolensk is no less disgusting than this video's title lol
Edit: I learn so much from your videos, I would have never found out about the whole "AP flying through narrow ship without exploding" if you wouldn't mention this stuff in your videos. Thank you :)
Smolensk was awesome when came out , I had saved steel to get Burgugone , and i had only coal to get one ship Smolensk or Thunderer , I have combine steel & coal and got them both and i did not regret that decision , before commander rework my Smolenk had 19.2 km range , I remember battle where I have burned 6 ships to death , I was called cancer ... best time of my life 😋
Jingles ripping on their teams Shima, who - while being a 17900 and the 20km torpedoes still managed to beat a nearly full hp Halland, in a gunfight that started when Shima was on low hp from the radars in the early part of the battle. And the Shima got the kill with those "useless" torpedoes nonetheless.
Something tells me there's something toxic in Jingles's life that's making him so bitter and prone to looking for excuses
It's a combo of several game mechanics - arming threshold and fuze time. All AP shells must meet a minimum armor thickness to even start the detonation sequence, after which the fuze time is how quickly the shell explodes after being armed.
If a shell doesn't arm it goes straight through as an overpen. Even if a shell arms, you might still get an overpen because the fuze time is too long and/or your shells are too fast, causing the shell to exit the ship and then explode.
_Smolensk_ has a 70 mm citadel armor belt. The French 431 mm guns arm on 72 mm plating. Most large caliber battleships are literally unable to arm their AP on a flat broadside _Smolensk_ at all. You can HE citadel a _Smolensk_ with enough HE pen or take a riskier option and dunk your high caliber AP shells into the waterline to arm them and hope some of the shells reach the citadel.
I think russian bias kept him alive at the end, the Musashi's secondaries hit him at least six times
Secondaries aim center mass. Musashi has anemic 5" HE secondaries. Shattered on the Smolensk's belt.
@@24YOAMusashi's 155mm secondaries should absolutely have splattered him.
That light cruiser showdown in the middle with the Worcester and the Minotaur was great. Really reminded me of the best parts of playing the game
It wouldn't be a Jingles video without misidentified ships. Never change old man :)
I do love the names people choose in this game. Potato Casserole (perfect PUG description), a_tiny_kitten and Tactical Teddy Bear stood out to me :D
When I was still playing the game, I would often award a "Best name of the day prize."
give a raise to the title guy
The title is very reminiscent of “The Last Charge of the Calcutta Light Horse” I appreciate the reference!
The Charge of the Light Brigade is a closer reference
" Half a league, half a league,
Half a league onward,
All in the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.
“Forward, the Light Brigade!
Charge for the guns!” he said.
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred."
The last charge of the calcutta light horse? I had to google that one and I'm sad to see no donkeys (light horses?) were used to sink a German spy ship.
@@matebalazs1575
Cannon to right of them,
Cannon to left of them,
Cannon in front of them
Volleyed and thundered;
Stormed at with shot and shell,
Boldly they rode and well,
Into the jaws of Death,
Into the mouth of hell
Rode the six hundred.
I think that's gotta be the most times I've heard Jingles say "brest" without laughing. Must be getting maturity in his old age
>Squeezes himself in between two ships
>Kills both
>Refuses to explain further
>Leaves
Kuznecov to the rescue. Same thing happened to my clanmate, that was low hp, the salvo came almost killed him but Kuznecov kicked in and the game time ended.
i didn't get this ship when it was available for coal because i thought it was an *unethical ship*. Jingle by the way, the ad on that product on your last vid, was the best i ever watched any youtuber made!!
Kudos to the Worcester in a tough situation. I also kind of feel bad for Mush, with a gun dispersion slightly worse than a blunderbuss, it can be a tough proposition to actually hit small ships.
Another great example why the special russin cpt is kinda busted :D
How to citadel light cruisers more reliably: Dont aim at the ships waterline but slightly below it. If you dont get trolled by rng, the water will slow down your AP and it will arm inside the ship.
Got to give props to the shimanto and the enemy shima both played well
I thoroughly enjoy these videos. Something that I was wonder about, being retired US Navy First Class Signalman. WG has omitted (either by design or by not knowing) the commission pennant that all Navies require that every one of their ships display from the masthead 24/7/365 starting from the day that they are officially commissioned into service all the way until the time that they are decommissioned.
Turning Jingles misnaming ships into a drinking game. Gonna take a shot every time he calls a ship (Minotaur) by the wrong name (Worcester). Will be wasted by the end of the video.
Commodore Pixel fed the sharks well today. Much aquatic feasting was enjoyed due to his ruthless reaping of enemy souls.
GG.
Scritches, treats and fist bumps as always.
🐈🐈⬛👑✌️🖖🤜🤛
Thank You, Jingles 🎉
Actually Jingles, the Shima was at 1700 health before the interaction with the Halland. He had been at that health since the Schlieffen was sunk.
I'd even say it wasn't that badly positioned if it wasn't for the radar cruiser. In a no carrier game the Shima is awesome for working behind enemy lines, providing spotting and driving enemies out of hiding with the torps. In that position the 20km noob torps could even be a nuisance to enemies all the way over on the east flank. Capping without properly controlling the area beyond the cap is a waste of spotting resources that could be used to gain proper control of the cap.
Love the WOWS vids. My goto after work whenever they're posted. Thanks, Jingles 😊
I love Charge of the Light Brigade (1968) movie
I've had my Smolensk one salvoed by battleships, including Yamato, on the opposite side of the map enough times to not trust the "It will only overpenetrate" theory. It's an absolute glass Cannon. Also note the filthy good torpedo launch angles - got to be really careful when rushing one of these around an island - you may be able to one salvo it, but regret it seconds later.
That Shimakaze switching to AP nearly got them the win
AP from a DD on the side of a light cruiser is so satisfyingly, the frenchies are the best at it but Shima guns hurt if they are used...
He was the MVP on the enemy team, played as well as he could. Didn't really make any errors either, that last fight should have been a dead Smolensk
actually jingles, his health were at 416 before the emergence talent kicks in. 😉
Managing to say Brest without giggling like a classroom full of anime girls? This reeks of mature behavior!
Helluva ending there Jingles
Thanks for the great video
Excellent video, thanks!
6:32 And here I was thinking he was going to say destroyers. Their AP generally has a short enough fuse to absolutely rip a Smolensk apart, its one of the only ships i've won a full health gunfight against in a Jager lol.
i typically hate smolensk replays but boy had this one caught me at the edge of my seat!
there's no "brigade" here, i only see 1 overgrown destroyer dragging his team kicking and screaming over the finish line
the enemy shimakaze and worcester played a fantastic game as well.
I see, I click. Simple
Now that’s a title I did not expect from our old man
Good job, Jingles!
The actual Shima Player here. For context, I typically run legendary shima with 12km torps and all the proper flags/capt skills relevant for storm level CB's (Actual CB's I swap legendary). I have around 800 games (not including CB games for years), almost all of them in the Shima and around a 48% win rate and pending the day 4-6% torp hit ratio as I mostly use their ability as AOE deterrents with occasional hits. I almost never touch randoms unless my clan mates need some advice or training and almost extensively keep myself to clan battles. Myself and the 2 brests are part of TO30, the beginner clans where we train folks up through 30 (Gale) > 31 (Storm) > 32 (Typhoon) as we get better in skill. (Shameless plug, but feel free to join TO everyone)
Our coordinated game play here was more for clan battle familiarization than Random Battle FFA shootouts. Apologies if it falls short of Jingles expectations, but we all have different reasons for doing things. As most shima players know, you die in the cap, so skirting the edge being annoying is usually the better option. Brests were taking up normal positions they would utilize in their T10 counterparts to learn the islands and locations as I was going up the flank supporting (unknowingly) jingles by keeping the Halland off him and of course spotting and delaying and baiting radars from worcester while in the beginner monitoring for torps.
There were plenty of lagging cruisers to cap and in the end it was a pretty close victory so there were plenty of things that could go right or wrong along those moments, but as you all know, randoms don't really coordinate too well. My clan mates did their job, held the flank, pushed the flank and allowed others to continue through to victory.
Overall, TO30 did pretty well for the standards we try to obtain (mid gale level). Its a clan for learning and trying different things to see what we can shake up in clan battles. We will always continue to learn and grow and with Jingles commentary we will keep it in mind for the future as you never know when good advice will become relevant in future matches!
If you think the Smolensk is dirty now.. i remember playing it before the rework when you could get the guns firing range up to over 19km. LOOOOONG range HE spammer in smoke.. now that was when it was at its dirtiest lol
Also: The rare game where everyone doesn't see a Smolensk pop up in their detection range and drop everything to delete it first.

Tonight I'll read that Greek mythology again, about the creature half bull, half man called Worcester.
Really like that one.
Not to be nitpicky and defend the shima but the torps at 08:47 look pretty fast to be the 20km noob tubes and that they ran out basically right after so they were the 8km torps.
Oh Jingles... Smolensk blows up like a balloon... Smolensk is a one shot that blows up all to easy....
Giga Chad! THE most precise description! 🤣
Smolensk implies the existence of a larger, more powerful Ensk. CMV.
Beegensk
Thiccensk
holy moly. that end duel would have given flambass an orgasm
Not many videos I normally watch twice and this one I did! What a chad!
That is one hell of a performance!
What an end! Great game!
A Massachusetts would probably be a menace to this thing.
So shima is now a submarine in jingles land, okey noted. And I’m not even going to comment on the wuster debacle. Sometimes I wonder if he actually commenting some other replay than the one we see.
AP can citadel the Smolensk from the side, just need to aim at the water to cause the shell to arm prior to hitting the ship
Great video
Actually, that enemy Musashi was fairly useless for most of the battle.
He started kiting away to the eastern side of the map at about the 5 minute mark and didn't get involved again until right towards the end. He didn't finish very high up on his teams list.
Plus, grounding himself right in front of a ship armed with torpedoes didn't show a great amount of situational awareness.
Thanks Jingles
That was pretty intense!!!
It just amazes me, that Jingles, being confronted with weeb culture for so long, still pronounces the Japanese ships with English "e" at the end instead of dEad "e", as it should be.
Who knew, broken ship is broken
Aw yeah I love some lovely Jingles commentary.
Great example of Soviet bias Wargaming is riding since the day one. Nevermind new "HQ" in Vilnius - nothing have changed.
Admiral Klutchnetzov saves the day again, Komrade.
Good finish
I had a 86% kill rate on my cleveland light cruiser in the 726 matches i played with it. It was my fireship.
Cleveland can be a fire beast. It’s a great light cruiser! o7
Jingles writing this title 🔥🔥✍🔥🔥
Extremely well played from the start by Commodere Pixel here, methinks. Very good positioning, proper target choice, impressive shooting... Congratulations, great game.
hate to say it but if the ruprecht knew how to fight a smolensk he would have been dead right then.
"... can absolutely Roon your day." What you did there? I seen it.
The Gigachad of Gigachad. Talk about a paddling
Almost had a wild game of throws yesterday, although it was only in the first half, after that it calmed down and was pretty much a normal match
I like how jingles can't differ between a minotaur and a worcester...
Ah a good old fashioned WOW game with minimum gimmicks, irrelevant subs, no CVs, some good players on both teams, and actual fun gameplay. Sooooo rare to see these anymore.
Gigachad, jingles never change🤣
Congratulations jingles ! No Brest jokes👋 well done
Entertaining!!!!
Of course. An OP Light crur!
Jingles went a whole episode without giggling about the Brest.
Lovely pair of brests on Commodore's team.
When you are a Smolensk, everything is a Worcester
Impressive!
You shoot 16" HE from Montana against a light cruiser: 3 overpens, 5 torpedo, 4 ricochet, 4 misses
Excellent vid as always sir, however I have always heard that sub pronounced 'Ba-lay-oh'. And this is not a dig at the 'same ole Jingles misnaming ships, just informing.
Damn! What a finish lol
Clickbait is clickbait, it's you we love Jingles :)
Tonight!
A Smolensk trolls some AP shells.
Shimakazes use their guns.
And any cruiser that is not a Smolensk or Brest, is a Worcester!
i can understand that worchester too...i like to focus my fire on the brest too
Spinning the knife in the wound... no Smolensk here. Same day...
Jingles that Shima lost 700 health in the period of engaging the Halland mentioning it had full health when it engaged the Halland. It was already down to 2.4k health!
Top Tier video title
Oh, you can absolutely annihilate the Smolensk, but with Conqueror or Thunderer HE. It’s hilarious.
My clanmates are in this battle (TO30 "Thrown Overboard"), I'm in TO 31
