Looks good mate, thanks for the video, will be interesting to see how the new French cruiser is at LT too, nice to see more cruisers being added up there.
I’ve had a couple of good games with an agile smoke Minotaur, but I’m thinking this might be one of the few cruisers where I opt for a concealment mod. Even fully agile, I need room for the occasional mistake.
Excellent idea to compare Minotaur to Belfast. That's what I was imagining and it helps. I also appreciate teaching the masses how to play with an agile cruiser and not just as one. Take advantage of my mad rudder wiggling and punish my harassers.
No issues with a challenging ship, make one a better CAPT. I have fun in my Woosta and do well, but this looks like a higher level frislander but with torps, and I have fun in Fris and hell a destroyer is definition of squishy at any time if ya think about it. As I have said a good CAPT can do well in any ship good or bad, as well as a bad player still plays badly in superior ship. And I disagree with reload as higher rate of fire means you put more rounds on target in shorter time and every round/ hit counts and adds up. Speed, maneuverability and rate of fire rule the battlefield.
I knew i was gonna be in a video. I had a terrible game in the alaska r. I should of pushed once you launched torps. That was me behind the corner. Chiefpullinstill
Perfectly explained your opinion about Minotaur (smoke/radar). Much people thinks this ship is op. But its not. With much battles on pc i also play it there with radar. Killing mino is easy, but no one cares or try to shot into Smoke. Best Regards
I love the effects of Miss Santa. The red is very good. I remember I saw your agile builds first time and tried it then. On most British cruisers I prefer Fraser, but Wichita, Amalfi, Charles Martel, Albemarle and Chaba are my agile builds and I love it so much. Thank you for this agile experience
@@voton882 You have to choose the captain, who should change the outfit. Then press the R Stick down; or known as R3 in some games, and then you can choose the different outfits.
Great video yet again mate 👍 talking about colours I think the Japanese battleships should have coloured water spouts from near misses like they actually did to mark the range of targets 👌
I also thought about a new commander universal base trait: either reduce the chances of (or) increase the armor on - your ships modules (engines, steering, turrets and torpedoes), from being incapacitated by the enemy. Vincent Mordoff’s unique skill “Sheltered Arms” where at max level, the modules are immune to incapacitation but can still be destroyed, is too OP for this base trait. At max level, the modules would have 75% chance of not being incapacitated, but still be destroyed. However, that leave another commander with another universal base trait that can increase your ships chances of incapacitated your enemy by 6 or 8%. Could be fun to play with…
It's a nice ship, good addition to the game. Should provide a little more balance to Legendary battles. I've enjoyed playing Fiji and Edinburgh, hopefully I'll do well with the Minotaur. thanks for the video.
This thing really pumps out the damage...but don't get caught in the open...I got overconfident and was obliterated a couple times...Tennant agile build works well...
I think I’ll opt for my secret sauce build for this one (which involves getting the stealth as low as possible + a few nasty surprises) I don’t know if I’ll be running radar or smoke however since my play style will be fairly “balls to the wall” and super aggressive, smokes would be nice to go dark on demand but radar allows me to double down on counter destroying which is what my build is all about really I’ll definitely be experimenting with both but I think I’ll more likely settle on radar to keep those destroyers on their toes
I'm really enjoying Minotaur because I love hunting destroyers. Use radar cruisers alot but haven't tried the radar build on Mino yet. Think I'd prefer to be in a division before I give it a go. This ship is amazing but one mistake and it's back to port. Really enjoyed watching...thanks and GG!
I wish I had HMS Belfast. I have the Azur Lane commander and use her on my Italian crusiers. No I run your agilr build on Edinburgh. I'm not sure how I really want to play or how I should be playing the british cruisers to this day. Also I find Edinburgh melts dds as well. I think my reload on her is like 6s or 7s. Also wish I knew how to play the American cruisers better. I have Wichita, but cant seem to do decent in it. Probably just need to play it more and rewatch your videos.
I feel like we play very similar my mino is the same build except one inspiration difference. Nikolai von essan. He’s pretty much the key for me in every single ap focused build
Play it like Atlanta don’t get hit lol ik smoke might be better option but then destroyers are roaming free I can’t let that happen lol?…..btw now I’m excited for Colbert it has 32 mm all around the ship! I think that’s awesome but the guns are meh shatter on everything
Mino Does Also have the strongest Pen amongst all the Brit Short-fuze AP cruisers though, so it can shred superstructures for massive / rapid damage, and the shell velocity is very high too (much flatter arcs - in general - compared to the USA’s floaty shells). It’s quite an offensive powerhouse (which one couldn’t really say of a mere Omaha) 😏
Two things are certain in life: Death, and VII Hipper agile builds.
True

My mate love this cruiser, first game was 230k with 6 kills . x3 Devastating strikes 9 citedals.

Didnt notice it was you until i died and spectated!
All I want for Christmas is a Hipper vid featuring a Ghost build on this beast! 🎁🎁
figure AZ Belfast Commander with extra and extended smoke etc could be a great fire from cover boat.

How do you use miss Santa? I bought her to use in my American and British ships but I don't see her anywhere

I've been enjoying blasting them with conq HE.
I'm really looking forward to it tho, have recently got the Alaska which I'm loving!

Stealth radar next I loved the Atlanta
I got Ms Claus , but I can find her to play with.
I feel like we play very similar my mino is the same build except one inspiration difference. Nikolai von essan. He’s pretty much the key for me in every single ap focused build
It’s either a gunboat dd for me or a agile radar buul
It’s either a gunboat dd for me or a agile radar build
So I earned the two Guise Commanders but don't know how to find them,or where to look for them.Senior moments all too often.
I figured it out,right stick.

So is the meta at L tier changed? Is the Shimakaze reign of terror over?
zao or Hindenburg when
so what your saying is, PLAY EMERALD
The ship just seems like a Omaha but a radar ship in my opinion
Yeah, pretty close I guess

I was bullying the shit outta Mino in my Alaska. Lol!!
Thx for sharing!
Another ship for camping and not pushing….exactly what LT needed. *Sigh*
