Well, it sounds lovely a week from now. In the meantime I need that Kiev. I'll admit I cheated on her okay? I took other ships into ranked, and when Shiratsuyu wasn't good enough, when Myoko couldn't hack it, who took me back with welcoming arms? You guessed it. She took me on a 20 game 90% WR streak, but more work still needs to be done! I'll do anything, anything, even buy a Krasny Krym and pretend to like her. Just let me have Tier 7 Kiev for one more week... pleeeeeeease? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

59 urk_the_red Members 246 posts 6,727 battles Report post #3 Posted March 3, 2017 I have no one to blame but myself lol. I was having so much fun with Shira in randoms that I had to start her for ranked, and it worked, sort of, for a time. I just couldn't do enough to push close matches into the W column. Then I thought Myoko isn't Atago but I can start some fires, be a pyro, and I lost every match where I played well and won every match where I got deleted. Then I saw a MM queue loaded to the gills with DDs and decided to go hunting. But it's just too late 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My two next best DDs - Blys, Lenin. Give'em a try!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
59 urk_the_red Members 246 posts 6,727 battles Report post #6 Posted March 3, 2017 I really don't know what it is between me and Blys, I just can't figure that ship out. I don't just do poor in Blys, I aggressively find ways to fail. Poor chemistry for whatever reason. Leningrad is interesting, I don't have one yet but she seems fun, I'll probably check her out at some point. In the meantime I'll console myself with the thought of bullying randoms with tier 8 Kiev Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only to show broadside to your whole tesm.... And those IFHE fires lolz... It's pretty great, heck here are a lot of my favorite WoWS moments playing Kiev. The moment of panic when some poor overextended Shira gets made... He knows he's done for, he can't run, he can't hide and there's no support in range. That's great fun! But my favorite is when some ship on the other team gets so frustrated with you that they charge right into smoke. "Never mind the fancy maneuvers and go right at them!" Oh hi there! It seems you forgot that Kiev has torpedoes. From Russia with love Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
