This was one of those better battles I have seen at high tier. Both sides played extremely well. The Z-52 player definitely has got very great DD experience. Congratulations on a very well-played game, Jim Kirk.
"James T. Kirk..." "The one and only." "Seventeen separate temporal violations, the biggest file on record." "Man was a menace." And clearly he was... to the enemy team. XD
Well played by the Z 52. also the bungo and libertad played really good. I liked how jim used the 'lock on bearing' option of the guns between aiming his torps to prevent the enemy seeing the 'being targeted' indicator. That's smart playing to keep them guessing if there are torps on the way.
the only way those 2 BBS were gonna win was if Jim & the Libertad made a mistake. No mistakes made. even a green-blooded hobgoblin would've been impressed.
@omega7441 yeah, I'd rather miss most than miss all of them. With the irratic unpredictable driving of some BBs you really can't hit them otherwise (without luck)
Ive been downvoted for exploratory torps launches that occassional make their mark, and same with torp spread just seeing torps whizzing nearby keeps the targets on their toes..
@DashwarGaming how nonsensical. Especially at a retreat, those torps are absolutely needed. I've had quite a few games that weren't lost, just because I was the last remaining ship (DD or sub) on a flank, who constantly forced them to maneuver. If staying alive and protecting caps long enough is what's needed, random spreads in the general direction are great. At the start of the game, it's also quite good to stop a push in its tracks.

With 3 minutes left the Vermont had 2 fires and put them out. 30 seconds later he gets set on fire again, eats 3 torps with 2 floods. He was really stuck between a rock and hard place!
I saw the Vermont's health creeping up beyond 91,000 just before Jingles asked why he didn't use his heal. We missed him taking 70,000 damage salvo and flooding to death. Timing is everything
Didn't watch the video yet, but I'm pretty sure there will be things on the starboard bow at some point Also Jingles, German DDs get 32 mm of HE pen by default, without IFHE
Great game by Jim! 4:35 2 remaining DDs flood into the C cap after it already been taken by Jim instead of providing help to the 2 unprotected flanks for .....reasons ....... Only 3 DDs on the team occupying the same grid square is not usually a great tactic. One could argue that Hindenburg didn't have so much else he could do but his somewhat overconfident push. What was he supposed to do? Sit back at spawn and hope for something to get spotted even the there is no friendly DD spotting on that flank?! Bungo player was actually even smarter than that. He realized he got unspotted by Jim, he knew from which side Jims torps came from earlier and then he suddenly got spotted again so he shot an estimated place on the other side of the island (which makes perfect sense IF a DD sails in straight line with and islands coming between them) but Jim of course has popped out on the same side again from where he was before. So that Bungo guy was skilled.
Thank you for submitting this replay, Captain Jim_Kirk1! Totally enjoyed your match! Thank you also to the Gnome Overlord for the commentary and feature!
1:02 god hearing you call the z-52 a "old" ship really hit me in the age department. I still catch myself ook at german crusiers and think "damm i really need to get around to grinding that new line" .
One of the best battles of WOW I have seen in a while. No actual mistakes from both teams. Just great teamwork, coordination and tactics used against superior firepower.
Jingles what I think happened with the Vermont is that the 2ndaries on the Lib had been working it over for so long off screen that they started multiple fires, the Vermont used the damage con to put them out and it was still on cool down when the torps and flooding hit, while getting lit on fire again.
Jingles f sherman is a seconday support DD it's ability to contest cap is none existant and is most effective if it can slip to a cross fire circumstance where others spot.
Isn't every player just a little thankful there aren't more DD players like this? That situational awareness, forward thinking, and execution...and he made it look easy.
Okay, just before i begin, i want it noted in the ships log that the title of the video made the difference between, casually clicking the video, or clicking the video as quickly as i could!
Ok, that was a fun battle to watch. I'm just getting back into world of warships again, the game has changed a fair bit since the last time I played it. Got myself a Massachusetts B, will be playing that along with the old Tirpitz.
So, t I just got back from an actual Star Trek convention in New Jersey, I'm playing catch-up with all my YT subscriptions, and THIS appears. BRB, I need to see Sting about writing Synchronicity III.
We could see a little earlier the smoke screen laid by the Minotaur, Jingles. So it's definitely a smoke Mino. At the end the Bungo just didn't assume the right side of the island from which would he be spotted and torped by the Z-52. Jim basically did the sneak tactic, I torp you from one side and spot you from the other... Bungo was outsmarted.
I will never stop being amazed by how much more fun this game is, when there are no carriers involved (among other things, plane spotting makes this game boring and un-suspensefull. The advantage of having a good anticipation for the game falls away and everybody knows more or less all the time where everybody else is-just bad design) And kudos to Cpt Kirk: First JIngles Vid in quite a long time, where i feel like this is somebody i can relate to. No division in op ships in general, not in an op ship in particular, not a dude who earns his living with playing video games (I assume) and on top of that a very similar approach on how he plays his dd. Sadly this is exactly the type of player the game lost so many of due to 1. cv-rework 2. subs and 3. overly competetive "top clan" players, who ONLY play in broken divs aka for the winrate not the actual fun/challenge. And as it turns out, this is also the type of player, that did provide balance for the matchmaking-who would have guessed that, eh? Certainly not WG.
Hey Jingles... 2 things. Glad your health is doing better. Scary stuff. And have you ever tried a game called "Ultimate Admirals Dreadnoughts"? It is like this game, but not as refined. You choose a country and either try to take over the world, or try to not get taken out. The fun part is.... you get to build your own ships. Yep, you design your ships based on the tech of the years your in. The game starts as early as 1890 and ends in 1965. When your ship finally do get in combat from a war or conquests, you control where they go, and how they go about it, but they shoot on their own. you can control when they shoot and what kind of ammo they use, but over all they do the work. They use salvos to aim, so you will rarely get a hit on the first few shots. I have a few battle on my YT channel. Though the channel is not as high quality as your site, but it has a few good examples of what the battles are like. I think i have one where it was 3 vs 25 enemies. Yah, even in this game there is MM issues... lol But I feel you would find yourself very interested in playing this one. I have over 2k hours on the game, and it was a rough ride, but atm, I think the game plays well enough for someone like you to feature it.
Aha, but do y'all remember the last replay Jingles featured with Jim_Kirk1? Was in a Minotaur where he obliterated 6 of 7 enemies in a ranked game. Was a few years back.

Cool, more gimmick mechanics to worry about
In fairness all ships can submerge, it's coming back up again that's difficult...
As they say, all ships can become submarines at least once.

Just so every dumbarse is aware, a Z-52 is not a DD. DD is a US Navy designation. Z-52 is Nazi German.

You are right. Thats a detail i missed. Respect!
Its also a way of turret bearing management that i wish more BBs knew how to use....
Use this shortkey more than the fire option 😅
oof that's clever!

That minotaur was a good sport! And the communication between Jim and Xcalib3r was rather refreshing to see
He was!
Especially after getting rofl stomped like that. As a rather mediocre Mino player myself, I felt for him.😧
@thomaskositzki9424 as a dd main, whenever I see one of you, I sweat bullets haha
Very well played by both of them. Nothing fancy or risky. The sign of a good player who knows what needs to be done.
Well played by Jim.
And chat was really friendly and helpful
Sometimes I use wide torp spread too. Surprisingly effective for throwing people off-balance.
And sometimes required when the enemy drives like a meth addicted squirrel.

GG and thank you for sharing Mr. Jingles! It would have been hilarious if he played the Enterprise CV! 😂
"There's Klingons on the starboard bow..."
What a pleasant trip down memory lane, thanks Jingles 🤪
You spent who knows how long editing this together into 21 minutes of footage just for the pun at the end. Respect gnomish one.

Best WOWS video from Jingles in 10 years in my opinion, bloody magnificent performance from Jim Kirk 1 and Excalibur.
I don't know about that.
Watching The Great Flambino take anything up the middle of Brothers... especially a destroyer...pretty fun

Thank you for submitting this replay, Captain Jim_Kirk1! Totally enjoyed your match!

My wife went to high school with now-retired Rear Admiral James A. Kirk, USN, who was born in 1967, the year after Star Trek first came out.
As a Kirk, a fan of Star Trek and the Z-52; I greatly approve of this video!
Now why do I feel a sudden urge to go re-watch all Star Trek movies with the good old crew again?
Not much compares to Wrath of Khan. It's one of those rare movies that I wish was hours longer.
I just rewatched all the original movies and next gen movies a couple months ago...
Never too early to rewatch
Probably one of the best DD replays I've seen in a while, a breath of fresh air honestly.
5:04 "What the hell is the Hindenburg doing down there?" Sinking, or so it would appear, Jingles.
The first 4 minutes is an example of perfect play. Simply flawless.
1:02 god hearing you call the z-52 a "old" ship really hit me in the age department. I still catch myself ook at german crusiers and think "damm i really need to get around to grinding that new line" .

'I'm actually a genius'
He really is Jim Kirk.
There's Bungo's on the starboard bow, scrape them off Jim!
Love the "He's dead Jim" comment Jingles don't ever change 😁👌
GO STAR TREK! Way to go Jingles, I watched the first series back in the early 60's as a kid. Loved them and love ur video's!
Jingles what I think happened with the Vermont is that the 2ndaries on the Lib had been working it over for so long off screen that they started multiple fires, the Vermont used the damage con to put them out and it was still on cool down when the torps and flooding hit, while getting lit on fire again.
I just want to see rear admiral jingles playing tanks and mighty jingles playing ships 🎉
I cant be the only one who giggles everytime Jingles says "Bungo" XD reminds me on Robert Attkinsons "Bob" Joke ^^
This was one of the best plays in the Z-52 I have ever seen! Great use of the ships strengths!
"I'm a destroyer, not a doctor!"
Don't drink every time Jingles gets something wrong... your liver will thank you...
Thanks for another great replay.
masterful play by Jim_Kirk1 and the Libertad.
It's life Jimgles, but not as we know it!
'on the starship enterprise under captain kirk'
I love that "I'm actually a genius" after torping the bungo for 2/3 of its health.
He's dead, Jim. You get his tricorder, I got his wallet.
I love that song,(Star Trecking) I used to listen to is on Dr Dimento when I was a kid
"Just a simple, country doctor".
-They are flooding.
-Let them flood.
