that is issue with good CV player vs bad one, especially 2 cv match..    if you lose CV early,  you are dead at high tier.  frankly, they need to limit to 1 cv  at higher tier

sometimes you're on the receiving end of these things. Sorry man, you played as best you could.

Been happening to me all night,  went and played my Aurora at T3 just so I could shoot something even if it was only at 19kts speed and could barely move out of it's own cap zone before the battle ended.

I had a game recently where I ended up with more base xp than anybody on the other team even though my team lost. It is really frustrating when the rest of the team throws the game so hard that even the very best efforts still cant save it.

IJN CV vs USN CV.  constant air superiority and consistent damage in the form of torpedo bombers.  meanwhile all USN CV can do in this situation is pray there carrier players are bad or make a mistake.

Some games, you just gotta bring the nukes.  If you forgot the nukes at home, that was your fault.   LOL

 

We have all been there......more times than we would like!

"Oh gods... What are we supposed to do? There's no way we can fight ourselves out of this!"

"Excuse me, sir. I have a suggestion."

"What is it, Ensign?"

"Activate stealth mode."

How the hell did both your Shimakazes come out of that match with not even 600 Exp between them ? where they AFK ? or suicide scouts ?

 

I don't usually blame specifically 1 or 2 players for a result like this but to be in this match in a Shimakaze possibly the most OP Torp Wall spammer at the moment and not even break 800 EXP is very bad. Sorry to say but that is your problem in this game right there even with the sky probably covered in enemy planes Shimas are still very effective.

 

CV sniping played it's part as well but both enemy CVs didn't do as well as they should have with no enemy CVs for what looks like a lot of the game. Was your Essex Fighter heavy ?  But even still CVs need to have some kind of special squadron buff that makes them immune to enemy CVs (but still can be killed by a sneaky DD or CA or even BB lol) for the first half of a match so that both teams have there CVs for long enough that the other side can't gain an overpowering advantage with there CVs especially at higher tiers.

You have 5 premiums on your team.

You never know.  They could all be training 3 point captains.

There is a mixed feeling getting a bunch of 'purchased' ships on your side vs. long-time-grind hard earned ships of the lines.

Certainly a matter of operator experience that you can't see.

Perhaps MM can look at this rather than throwing them all on one side.

Impressive plane kill. Even more impressive (in a bad way), your team didn't manage to sink ANY of their ships, though... First time I've seen that lol

It's all about the MM. If you scroll down to the bottom, you had a couple good players and the enemy was almost entirely made of 50+% win rates. I'm convinced that whichever team has the most "good" players wins usually. If the players are even, it really comes down to luck and who dies first. Those matches are the most exciting, in my opinion.

 

I agree with others, higher tiers, and the CV player is the make/break player. Although I ran into one at T4 the other day who murdered our CV and proceeded to wreak our team, myself included. I begged my team to make him a priority target and we ended up winning but just barely.

I assume the Shimas were spotted early on in the game by the carrier. Or they rushed and killed themselves.

Lol was going to say that exactly jaja. No but seriously if they play better as a team it will happen.

Can't do much about it. They are pubs.

Essex goes the opposite direction every other ship is going and abandons the Mikhail who was escorting the two CV, and of course dies.

The DD go off and die like mindless zombies. (I watched pulicat's replay, can confirm)

I stick close to our four BB, but people just continue the lemming-train one-by-one into the enemy base and die alone.

The stragglers get picked off. I just try and save my dosh, stuff it I'm not going down like everyone else.

Yep tis random battles alright. You press the button hoping that at least some of your team will help back you up but when you roll them dice you occasionally get roflstomped.
