i would dare say this was an above average performance of mr Joe, his positioning and map awareness were definitely better than what you usually see. Jolly good show old boy!
Using torps against the Fubuki also has one use that people usually forget; they give the Fubuki driver one more thing to worry about. It's an added distraction. Torps can be used in other roles than just doing targeted damage. Denying ground (water? sea?) and limiting movement is one, distraction is another. Specially in a lower tier games where the reloads are relatively fast.
I know using torps is generally a low percentage long range option, but, they're great for redirecting enemy ships in a direction toward some of your team...
@@Zeka_SCCC Yeah, but actual sub-hunting ASW planes are not in WOWS yet, and in IRL, ASW planes mostly got kills by surprising surfaced subs recharging their air and batteries, not so much getting the submerged ones. The Destroyer and Destroyer Escorts were the ones who killed more submerged subs, especially after Hedgehog launchers and proper sonar became more common. As with all things, combined arms tends to win out against a single arm because no one weapon system can counter all the counters simultaneously with perfect efficiency.
@@genericpersonx333 Literally almost every ship that isnt a DD has ASW planes similar to dutch airstrikes. And every single one of those is vastly more effective than a DD or depth charge armed cruiser going after one in 98% of situations. Talking in game terms, ASW planes are just vastly superior
@@Zeka_SCCC Apologies, I thought you were talking IRL, not in game. The planes in game are just a delivery system for depth charges, so I don't think of them as special per se. I definitely recall WG spinning us stories about how DDs would have lots of fun hunting submarines like IRL DDs, but so far, I think you are right that the best counter to submarines is a wary cruiser captain quick to aim his plane-dropped depth charges. The lack of hydrophone on most DD sort of gives the lie to the idea they are a counter to subs for sure.

The thing about Japanese "U" is that it is in most cases shortened to the point of almost non existence. That being said if you were saying syllable after syllable - you would pronounce it. And how much it's shortened also depends on specific dialect.
Yes. It really depends. Akatsuki typed out in Roman letters has would make it seem like the "TZSU" phonetic pronunciation would be correct (A-KAT-TZUE-KEY) but a native speaker would most certainly sound like they are saying AHH-KATSu-KEE because of which syllable is stressed. If you want to hear a Japanese speaker pronounce it, seach TH-cam for "the Akatsuki gundam first launch" and listen to how it is pronounced at 1:50.
@@tar5us452 Anime tends to be in the Tokyo standard dialect. As Jan Negrey said, how much it's shortened is dependent on the dialect and how formal they're being, for example the super formal pronounce-every-syllable 'domo arigato gozaima-SU' versus the informal cut-the-u-off 'domo arigato gozaimass-
@@tar5us452 correct, the u would usually be "pronounced" as a short gap with the hint of a soft u sound. It's not really "Akatski", it's more "AKATSuhKI" with the uh sound being soft and almost rushed.
Yeah it's one of those things that when you study the language, you kind of get a natural feel for when to fully annunciate it and when to muddle over it. In my experience, the general rule with Japanese (specifically the Tokyo/standard dialect) is follow the path of least resistance. If it feels easier to say by half-dropping the "u", don't fully annunciate it and you'll sound like a native speaker more often than not.
Easy fix for Subs. If you have 2ndaries, as soon as the sub shows, you can target it with them. The 2ndaries will open fire as soon as they can hit it. No worries. Also if you are close in when the enemy sub surfaces, stay there. It's bloody hard to shoot a ship with torps if you are sitting on the ship that is trying to fire them.
Not enough people take advantage of the torpedo arming distance. Back when I could take Atago/Takao out and still have fun, we used to do that thing where we would draw the enemy into a ram and dodge at the last moment for a torpedo strike. Only reasons I got away with it as much as I did was because I would dodge just enough the enemy fish wouldn't activate before pulling back and shooting mine.
That strategy only ever worked for me once, and that was when I was in a secondary build Bismarck. It also took an excessive amount of time and more of my health than I was comfortable losing. Even with your "easy fix," subs take way too much effort to kill. They're actually harder to fight than carriers.
I'll argue the Sims is also a good T7 destroyer based on its combination of speed, rudder shift, range, turret rotation, and DPM. It can struggle at bottom tier but is a monster when middle or top.
My weekend started yesterday with the paid Thanksgiving holiday. Hooray for me! Thanks yet again Jingles, for your unique commentary on yet another great replay. Cheers! 🦃🇺🇸
After watching this video I don’t think many players will make those mistakes in the future Thanks mate for another great video People make mistakes all the time and other people learn from them That guy did great
To all of those who think subs are balanced enough: Wargaming will add the I-400 carrier sub to the Japanese tech tree, either as a researchable tech tree ship or as some sort of premium ship. Just a fair warning.
Thank you Jingles for pointing out the utter frustration with subs being in the game now. We all feel it. I have almost come to the point where I don't really want to play the game anymore, and I've played the game (off and on) since late 2015. Ok, break's over, back to the salt mine.
Honestly that wasn’t too bad, the smoke timers were questionable. Blocking vision of the sub at the beginning, smoking as targets went behind an island, and in range of a radar cruiser. The other critique would have been to get the cap before going after the sub. Which to be fair was your goal and it did look more pressing to help than cap. However if the team didn’t grab that cap when you were chasing down the sub it more than likely would have been a loss. That all said you were competent, which puts you head and shoulders above most of the destroyers I see in games. Work on your smoke timers, when it is ok to be visible and when to draw a little fire, while always putting the caps as a main priority. That sub in the beginning did not want to get spotted either, use that to your advantage, and be cognizant of blocking vision with your smoke. You’re going to love the shima and the kagero.
The point where he went after the u-69 sub reminds me of the battle of Midway where a lone Japanese destroyer "Arashi" spends a few hours hunting USS Nautilus, though in this instance, he didn't help throw the battle by accidentally leading US SBDs to his carrier.
I can't blame the Arashi for that one, you get told to sink a sub and then rejoin, you do your job because you are far down the totem pole of command ya know?
@@Sorain1 I don't know if there is surviving documentation of whether it was ordered, or they decided to try and hunt the sub after they saw it taking shots on the fleet. I think only the recent "Midway" movie made that distinction, Battle 360 of the History Channel indicated Arashi decided on its own, and was told to catch up later. Though I don't think the Japanese fleet blamed them for the disaster. I think there was more documentation on the indecisiveness of the fleet commander Nagumo, and the valiant efforts of the doomed American torpedo squadrons that were the main cause. Though to stay in the area and risk the Hiryu after the other 3 losses, instead of retreating in caution with what was left of the air wing were the main failures of the Japanese.
Jiggles "Hit 'em again, Harder! Harder! " was a saying my dad used often(he grew up during the war). USS Harder destroyed like 4 DD's doing a "Down the throat" shot. Sub captains have to be half crazy.
3:30 Alright, in his defense, that torp *would’ve* missed had it not been a sub. I wouldn’t be surprised that players even now don’t expect that bullshit. Hell, I thought it was the enemy fubuki sharing the cap at a longer distance.
I would love to see more average joe replays to listen to you and learn what not to do and what they did correctly. As I myself played world of warships but took a very long break and barely played before. Now I would like to go back into the game only to play two or four battles when I have the time since college doesn’t allow for much time. My plan is to learn how to play better since I don’t want to be a burden to the team.
"With the single exception of the leningrad, which is a premium, I don't think there is a single T7 destroyer in the game you would call good." Sir, Haida and Jervis would both like to speak.
Your pronunciation of Akatsuki is perfect here. This ship is different from the other ships' names because the middle "su" is part of a single character with "t" so it would be pronounced "A-Ka-Tsu-Ki" and then as you say it faster you get to the pronunciation that you used in this video. Hope this was at least a little interesting :)
That would be exactly like him. But not his time. The green team was missing 4 ships while the red team was missing 3 ships and Jingles stated correctly "they are down by 1 kill" (7:38).
I have no idea what you're on about with this game...and it looks about as much fun as watching paint drying. but,...notifications of your content has reminded me to go back and enjoy your Assassins Creed Odysey content. THAT was very well informed and interesting. I'll see you over there, in the past :-) eh?
Holy Balls ! Jingles almost said Akatsuki correctly! Almost...almost. I believe in you Jingles! Ah-Kaht-Ski...not Ä-Kaht-Ski. Good enough mate. Cheers!
Jingles, its Ah-kah-tsu-kee, there is a u, If you watch at least one Sailor Moon episode in the first season (like episode one) you can hear Usagi pronounce her name, which has that Tsu syllable.
Jingles? Why do you think smoke screens are always angry? Why, just last week, I saw a very, chill smokescreen! It was almost a sedate smoke screen! Cheers!
To be fair, regarding that fien.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nystagmusrst torp hit, that fish was running hot *straight* and normal when he blipped his throttle. It was only when the guidance kicked in the trop bent in that the acceleration made it possible for the fish to bite him. If the torpedo hadn't been homing, the acceleration would have been fine.
One HAS to be the weeb here: Though I LOVE that you "leave out the U" in Akatsuki I advise further: The name seems to have two translations the Destroyer was also called "Dawn", But "Dawn" translates to "Yoake" in Japanese. So I wonder... Because Akatsuki seems to be derived from two words: Aka & Ts(u)ki - Red Moon. So it seems to me you can pronounce it as one word, or two words. Also the next ship you could learn is "Fubuki" = Snowstorm. The correct pronunciation would be to stress the first(!) syllable, so: FUbuki Funny enough, most Japanese words stress the first syllable, just as the T10 Japanese BB is the YAmato. (NOT ToMAto, erm, YaMAto). Fair winds and calm seas o7
Hasn't Haida been removed from sale now though? But yes, Haida and Jervis are utter monsters and until I hit Jervis, I'd been a bit meh on the RN DD line, after Jervis, it's become one of my favourite lines. Not reached Gadjah Mada, but I presume, given what I know of RN DDs, that she will be a Jervis with Deepwaters?
@@deaks25 Gadjah Mada is great, monstrous gun power and 360 turrets allows you to beat most DDs 1v1 and the deepwaters are excellent for bigger ships. Probably the best Pan Asian DD.
really solid dd play. Allhough I never smoke up, when i have torps in the water, except when i WANT them to change course (you know-the good ol' "HERE i am!! turn to get all ur guns at me and then eat all my loving torps"-trick)-but that sometimes works and sometimes not, so i guess its fair either way. regarding german humour: How many Germans do you need to screw in a light bulb? - only ONE!

Blyska, Vauquelin and Mahan are my favorite T7 DDs, although Akatsuki plays fairly well also.
No good Tier VII Destroyers!?!?! Jervis says, "Am I a joke to you?"
Jingles? Why do you think smoke screens are always angry? Why, just last week, I saw a very, chill smokescreen! It was almost a sedate smoke screen! Cheers!
I am getting antsy when I see ruin launch torpedoes in direction of the friendly Mogami
Loved the video @The Mighty Jingles! Can't wait for the next video man! How are things going in Jurassic World Evolution 2? Got any Gallimimuses yet?
I had to do a triple-take when you said Akatsuki, I'm already so conditioned to the long U
Hurray, Jingles pronounces the name of something correctly!!!! Akatsuki (Ah-Kah-T-suh-Key)
(Secombe): Who says we Germans have no sense of humor?
(Milligan): Just about everyone.

🦃Happy day after Thanksgiving (here in the US). Hope everyone had a good one and ate lots of good stuff. Jingles, love your work and commentary.
To be fair, regarding that fien.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nystagmusrst torp hit, that fish was running hot *straight* and normal when he blipped his throttle. It was only when the guidance kicked in the trop bent in that the acceleration made it possible for the fish to bite him. If the torpedo hadn't been homing, the acceleration would have been fine.
Acktually jingles, the lightning can gets its concealment down to 5.5km with the mod and captain skill
the pronounciation of Gneisenau is easy. the g is kinda half-silent. it supports the n while also being a half-sound itself
Thanks Jingles.
One HAS to be the weeb here: Though I LOVE that you "leave out the U" in Akatsuki I advise further: The name seems to have two translations the Destroyer was also called "Dawn",
But "Dawn" translates to "Yoake" in Japanese.
So I wonder... Because Akatsuki seems to be derived from two words: Aka & Ts(u)ki - Red Moon.
So it seems to me you can pronounce it as one word, or two words.
Also the next ship you could learn is "Fubuki" = Snowstorm. The correct pronunciation would be to stress the first(!) syllable, so: FUbuki
Funny enough, most Japanese words stress the first syllable, just as the T10 Japanese BB is the YAmato.
(NOT ToMAto, erm, YaMAto).
Fair winds and calm seas o7
There's different dialects and you will always be wrong, gaijin.
Have you never heard of the HMCS Haida, HMS Jervis, Gadjah Mada, all GOOD T7 DD's.
Air Detection of the Akatsuki is 2.7km and AA range is 5.8km.
Haida is awesome. Only Tier VII DD I bothered to keep.
Hasn't Haida been removed from sale now though? But yes, Haida and Jervis are utter monsters and until I hit Jervis, I'd been a bit meh on the RN DD line, after Jervis, it's become one of my favourite lines. Not reached Gadjah Mada, but I presume, given what I know of RN DDs, that she will be a Jervis with Deepwaters?
@@deaks25 Gadjah Mada is great, monstrous gun power and 360 turrets allows you to beat most DDs 1v1 and the deepwaters are excellent for bigger ships. Probably the best Pan Asian DD.
I'm glad you mentioned Jervis and Haida, both fantastic T7 DDs and my favourites at the tier.
really solid dd play.
Allhough I never smoke up, when i have torps in the water, except when i WANT them to change course (you know-the good ol' "HERE i am!! turn to get all ur guns at me and then eat all my loving torps"-trick)-but that sometimes works and sometimes not, so i guess its fair either way.
regarding german humour:
How many Germans do you need to screw in a light bulb?
- only ONE!
Germans are efficient and not very funny.
i absolutely love that joke^^
While my ex-wife's mother, uncle and grandparents were German, I cannot ever remember them laughing.
Ahhhhhh another Critingles with Jingles
*looks at concealment on Akatsuki, hears Jingles state the concealment is better than the Lightning*
Jingles, don't change.
