I got the Exeter and Le Terrible B from 12 crates and 1250 dubs from the discounted 250 dubs crate. The Graf Spee was top of my list and I hoped the rng gods would bless me but its always like this for me. Last time I wanted the Warspite B and instead got the Scharnhorst B and Atlanta B from 5 crates....
I'm glad you showed the graff because I have it and I'm not quite sure how to play it. I'm not a battleship, but I'm not quite a cruiser either. I've never been in a cruiser that I'm actually afraid of destroyers, because I don't have the dpm to take them down. It's inaccurate as eff too. Thanks for the vid. Ps. You really have a talent for comedy. #Loveit! I would have given you 4 thumbs up, but that would have been all too democratic party of me.
It’s inaccuracy is the hardest part to work around IMO. But really it’s the same as anything else, push when you can, and find broadsides when you can’t push. It’s tankier for a cruiser so I will generally keep an inside line on maps rather than the big flank.. doesn’t mean it can’t flank, I just don’t want to be in long range battles when I don’t need to be as those shells go all over the place.
I bought the single black Friday crate for 250 doubloons and this is the ship I got. I have taken it out a few times and have mixed feelings so far. It's weird enough that I want to love it but like you mentioned it really needs more than one cruiser on the enemy team to have a solid game. Which we all know is a rarity especially at T5 because "big ship stronk, little ships scary".
With all the big boom ships it is more about waiting for them to over extend and get those torps off.. most BBs you run into at the tier aren’t agile enough, but yes, battleship heavy games are just not fun.
@@metajerk It's kind of funny now that I see myself say that. When I got into this game I was hardcore battleship main. I still enjoy battleships but recognize how good cruiser play is what can carry games and has gotten me much more interested in heavy cruisers.
Ok, I prefer historical camo only because I'm a naval history nerd, but dangit I just can't dislike one of metajerk's videos. Another great one, good sir!
The whole black fleet looks really sexy this year. People are talking about the goth look so much lately that guy could say it’s the…wait for it…Hot Topic.
I got Kraken #2 last night in a Warspite along with High Caliber and Dreadnaught…the funny part is the carrier on the enemy team also got a kraken but they lost…you ever see a kraken in each team before or did I win one of your challenges? 😂
FIRST OF ALL THIS CRATES COST LIKE A 1000 DOUBLOONS SECOND OF ALL I OPENED 2 WITH 2000 AND 1 WITH MISSION AND GOT EXTER B.. which is not bad but i really want graf spee
That is very much the life of a cruiser these days, right? I think this pushes many cruiser players into HE spamming roles, which is too bad as I think they’re the most boring. Play what you want, and have fun.. I was playing the Pyotr Bagration this evening and I was constantly the only cruiser and being pulled into legendary matches. I just do what I can and play the ship the way it should be played. Move to locations where the BBs will have to turn their turrets all the way around just to shoot at you once, and until they do that, target them with AP and do as much damage as possible, then go dark and reposition. Riga is very good at this style of play if you’re looking for specific ships to try.

Sorry you didn't get Graf but you were fortunate enough to get 2 very good ships
Im not even sure what I got out of mine.. but it wasn’t the Massachusetts.. but I was not nearly disappointed enough to purchase 39 more crates.
Ja, die Graf Spee, ein sehr schönes Schiff, besonders diese übergroßen Kanonen und das dünne Heck. GG
🙃🍺🍺

Whatever floats your boat! Cheers!
Nice work 👍🏻
That’s how it’s done.
Once again great vid Meta thanks dude
Cheers mang!
Happy ending
I remember thinking “how likely is this to happen?” Then it did.. player base delivers! 🙃
Nice don't have that ship but always learning position play from you meta always a plus
Position is power!
What was that Weimar building in there? He gets those subscriptions to all those magazines.
He’s hiding something from the rest of us…
He’s all to himself…
What’s he building in there?

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah 😎
Haha the most lucky kraken so far Jerk 😅👍
Gotta make your own luck! 🍀
@@metajerk Indeed.
Love the Spee Riegerwald is an awesome Captain for it
Seems like they would be, but I did t pick them up as I have waaaay too many German commanders.
@@metajerk Riegerwald is gold for the german cruisers just give it a shot
Riegerwald yamamoto + von essen and you can nuke everything
Glad I got him the other day, still having to use Muller whilst I level Riegerwald up.
@@noobzerhech5lerschannel889 I don’t have him, and unless WG gives him to me for free (they won’t), I won’t spend money on a commander.
What an ending😅
Just a bit o luck right there. 🥲
Nice kraken just got the sirocco kraken last night, low damage and yoinking
WG took my Sirocco away accidentally… seems like a decent boat, not sure I’d play it a lot though.
I got Kraken #2 last night in a Warspite along with High Caliber and Dreadnaught…the funny part is the carrier on the enemy team also got a kraken but they lost…you ever see a kraken in each team before or did I win one of your challenges? 😂
I have! I recall there was one where both myself in a tirpitz and the red tirpitz both got one.. not too common though!
Grafspeeb
Graf Speeber
You should have tommyboy host kraken 601. (If you ever get there)
Oh I definitely would! In fact, seems like it’s about time for a guest host….
I got Graf Spee in my first discounted crate. How about that for luck? :)
Just enough luck to keep you buying more 🤑
FIRST OF ALL THIS CRATES COST LIKE A 1000 DOUBLOONS SECOND OF ALL I OPENED 2 WITH 2000 AND 1 WITH MISSION AND GOT EXTER B.. which is not bad but i really want graf spee
Just gotta keep buying more 💸🙃
@@metajerk it isnt easy cause last time it cost just 250 gold and they dont put any offer on crates
Any tips when the match is full of BBs and DDs? That always seems to be my luck…

Scripted- both Exeter B were paid actors
It is a known fact I pay all my staff with American cheese slices… that being said… eerily predictable behavior on their part 🤔
