Ah yes. The "you either die a noob or live long enough to be called a cheater" game. :)
Genuine WOWS proverb right their XD
And so easily could have died a noob in this game... lucky for the paid actors in red.
That is when you say "Yes, I admit I am cheating... I am using the infinite money cheat during this battle" or "Infinite ammo cheat" :D
I feel like the skill lvl of players has dropped significantly over the past couple of years, maybe they've succeeded in bringing in new players. I hadn't played for over 3 months, logged in the other day, proceded to have a 6hr win session, in ranked, t6, without even one game coming even close, to being a loss. I myself have gotten rather rusty, over these 3 months, and didn't even play that well, occasionally I'd be top scoring, but mostly middle of the pack. Idk, I've got a feeling, skill lvl has dropped.
@@beastgaminghd7575 Most good people quit, so the dregs and whales are left, that's basically it.
Hey there, The_Cool_Kids20 here. One fact about my division mate Wolf in this battle: he got 10 achievements as well. He got the same achievements as me, except he earned a High Caliber and AA Defense Expert in place of my Kraken and Double Strike. Props to him, he's a beast in Montana.
Lovely as always to be featured here old man, last time was Game of Throws: Season 2 Episode 3! Thankfully this game didn't get placed into that playlist.
Much love from the USA.
Nicely played!
GG, 😂 love the surprise of a radar Minotaur! Thank you for sharing! Another video from the enemy team's perspective would be awesome! 🤣👍
Monty is best girl after all.
Well played always appreciate a fellow minoturd 🤝
@@paulvamos7319 Truth be told it was more common to see them before the CV rework, though I too haven't seen one in quite a while.
"And now for something completely different..." Thanks Jingles, entertaining as always

For a DD player, radar Minotaur is like natural disaster: 1% chance for it to happen, absolutely devastating when it does. It was the type of risk that insurance usually cover, and if there's any out there I'm gonna buy it.
its not so bad, you just pay attention to one in match, if you haven't seen one smoke up at least a quarter way in, there's a good chance it is one. What's deadly is when you see one div'd with a US DD, since you know it most definitely does have a radar and is going to use their smoke. Nevsky is what's scary in a DD tbqh, the thing has incredible ballistics; so it can hit you even easier than mino, the radar is almost as long, and the radar reaches further. Nearly every CL has really poor balistics past 12km, they tend to have problems landing shots once you're past that; Nevsky is the exception.
@@bluesynth7958 in theory, but in practice radar Mino is dangerous against DD in early cap contest. It has good stealth, good stealth radar margin, and long ass duration radar so it can creep close to cap and ruin your day even without firing anything. It'd just hide behind an island, radar, and let other red DD gunboat/smoked-up Smolensk/insert any HE monster here ruin your day XD
as a smoke mino main. my fav ship i have never had the guts to change to radar yet. maybe install again and just go trolling with the radar.....play for the fun again.
@@bluesynth7958 Or just hover over the ship with your mouse, tells you all of the consumables.
It's chief weapon is surprise. Surprise and great rate of fire. Oh bugger, we need to start over!
Its chief weapons are suprise and rate of fire, with torpedoes to match
🤣🤣

Diabolical laughter
The "sweaty tryhard" insult has always made me laugh. The best part is that I have only ever been called such while roflstomping, leaning back, fully relaxed and joking about how easy the game is :P
_No one ever acknowledges when I'm actually trying-hard and breaking my back trying to carry. Feelsbadman_
Thanks for this. Those guys were probably insulting everyone else on their team through the whole match, I hate to cheapen The_Cool_Kids_20's victory, but that kind of smack talk, at least on the NA server, increases proportionally with incompetence.
I'd like Jiggles to make an audiobook, fumble while reading, correct himself, and go on a metanarrative about the book, only to reappear in the middle of the next chapter
Only a bit into the video, but I want to take the time to point out the friendly Gdansk at around 2:26 😂 “Badmiral Wakhimoff” radars the enemy benham, smokes up, then proceeds to eat a torp launched by said benham a few seconds later after smoking up, then chats: “Who put that torp there?!” 😂 It’s good to see that there are still people with a sense of humor and a little self awareness amidst all the toxic, raging, crybabies that are so prevalent on these seas! I tip my hat to you good sir❤
It's always the ones that make fun of themselves, that you want on your team.
Watching MightyJingles videos always makes me want to play World of Warships again.
Then I do, and remember why I stopped.
Sat down with my dinner and this drops. Impeccable timing..
Greetings to the other side of the world! I just had breakfast
sƃuᴉʇǝǝɹƃ
Morning coffee for me. Same timing. By gum the old man is good!
Lunch for me. Mac and cheese (the boxed kind, unfortunately) and both a glass of orange juice and a bottle of zero-sugar Gatorade. I had a seizure yesterday morning due to me forgetting to eat breakfast (Keppra does not play very nice at all when you forget to eat shortly afterwards), so I ended up needing to sleep in this morning. Unfortunately, this meant that I took my Keppra a bit on the late side . . . Oh dear. I think my autistic a** is over sharing again. Well, regardless . . . A Jingle's RUclips video is always a great accompaniment to a hearty lunch. Thanks.
I feel sad for those who didn't grow up with Monty Python, or who don't watch your videos. Well done. Carry on.
😂 Flying Circus was the last one I remember and I didn't see it until I was in my 40's in the early 2000's! FAF, I don't think I have laughed so hard since! 😂
@@paulvamos7319 I think my favorite bit is still "I'm here for an argument, please". A classic belly laugh every time.
@@TheFamilyWoodworker I have to go back and watch some of the other ones as it was 40+ years ago! The great train robery might be my favorite! 🤣
@@paulvamos7319 Grew up with them. I was just the right age. Doubt we'll ever see their like again.
I should have added.... "I turn to Jingles when I want something completely different".
Trenlass viewers surprised that you can play Mino with something different than radar.
I'd call that mino game "the luckiest mino in history to not get bitch slapped by all those BBs". Any of us who played that recklessly would've been smoked within the first 5 mins. With that said it was an immense pleasure to watch!
Our chief weapon is Radar, Radar and a citadel...Our top two weapons are radar and a citadel, radar and a citadel and torpedoes...Our top _three_ weapons are Radar, a citadel, torpedoes and...
If you’re a DD, always ask your friendly Mino if he’s radar or smoke and work with him. It’s a match made in hell if you do it right. I always appreciate the smoke in trade for radar and anti DD services.
Same goes for Brisbane… we Brisvegans really appreciate a smokescreen share, and you know you’ll get radar and a bunch of HE support for it.
You don't even need to ask anymore, if you hover your mouse of an ally in the scoreboard it'll show you the consumables they're currently using (for enemies it shows all possible options & best stats, but for allies it shows current setup).
@@marcuswatersonbut you DO need to ask, not for the answer itself, but for the coordination.
Jingleboy, just want to say one thing. Never. Give. Up. We love you.
Wow, just WOW! And definitely a +100 for the Monty Python Refs!!!
14:45 "Go back to ranked" Buddy with the kind of salt you're dumping in the ocean, you're the one who looks like they stumbled into the wrong match on their way to the ranked queue.
Or even the co-op queue
I used to do this in my Minotaur in ranked and clan battles. I could get my detection range down to 9.1km and the radar range is 10km. It was a perfect DD trap.
🖖 Get well soon, admiral. Need you to keep showing me this game so I don't have to play it myself!
As radar Mino is my go to ship for fun, this warms my heart.
It can be equally responsible for fist-shaped holes in people's desks too!
The Brisbane doesnt get a choice, no smoke to swap out, just radar. You learn to duck regularly.
…or have a terrible win rate, like me :(
It's a very tricky ship to learn. You need to be able to control your engagements and be prepared to lose 1/2 your health in one shot. Use Islands, kitting away and your throttle/rudder to dodge.
Once you get the hang of it, it's actually very fun!
@@need8394 - Oh, so it's like Worcester...
Yeah I would be lying if I said I haven't been got caught with my ass flapping in the wind a couple times by a radar mino. That is always a hell of a surprise. I always make sure I've seen him smoke up before I get too wild now
This shouldn't be that much of a secret/surprise. You can hover over the ships in the teams menu screen and see what they are equipped with. At any rate. Entertaining video as always.
Cardinal Ximinez : *Nobody* expects the Spanish Inquisition! Our chief weapon is surprise, surprise and fear, fear and surprise. Our *two* weapons are fear and surprise, and ruthless efficiency.
A classic!
Howdy right back at you, Jingles. I hope this Tuesday finds your house a happy one.
Lady Akizuki's comments in the 10th minute were spot on. I hope you were quick to attend to her treats and scritches.
Give Dame Hjusie scritches and treats too please.
2 cool kids' division really had the opposition's number.
That was a convincing paddlin'.
🐈🐈⬛👑✌️🖖
Jingles I was in the process of having a second Monday in the same week until I got this video in my queue. Made my day. You’re brave, talented, kind, excellent human being and just all round brilliant! Remember you are very loved by this community M8!
thanks for the Intro letting me know it's Tuesday Jingles! - I'm on annual Leave and days just merge into one another!
Great Video. Thoroughly entertaining
Nicely done Cool kids in the Live Fast Die Young Minotaur setup. And yet did not die.
Ah yes, true masterpiece of UK comedy, Monty Phyton! ❤
My one criticism of this Mino’s gameplay would be that he didn’t flood various gaps with torpedoes to aggravate the enemy and perhaps get some hits. Mind you, still kicks butt in this game, with his haxxor mystery powers.
5" guns on the mino.... jingles strikes again. Off to the salt mines with you
You're right Jingles; it wasn't an episode of "A game of throws": It was one from "A game of stomp", and a rarely entertaining one (Usually they are very dull).
Kudos to The_Cool_Kids20, a very surprising (and enjoyable) game indeed.
I'm half expecting this to be Yuro
Nvm
Yuro, Flambass or Flamu.
Any of them could do it.
@@6th_ArmyMade me think of Trenlass, since its usually him i see in a radar Mino
Loved this video, great work by cool kids. if I tried that I would be " Gone in thirty seconds"
About to have my breakfast on my day off and this drops, thank you very much Mr. Jingles.
So, I had to stop the replay midway through and watch the Monty Python skit again; lol.
You're funnier than ever Jingles....
Great narration, made me smile :)
Alright. Now that I've finished watching the video.
Good night from Canada Jingles!
Talking about rare and mythical beasts I faced a secondary build MONTANA the other day in my DD. There's some real sick puppies out there.
Love your content Jingles! You are so relaxing and informative :)
Before WOWS deplatformed me on my mac, I was a Radar Mino specialist. So much fun.
Grinding Brit lights cls right now. Nice playing the Edinburgh with radar, no one ever expects it.
Appreciate the video, Jingles! Cheers mate!
I was searching for a guide on the Brisbane. I think this will do nicely
You're right, Jingles.
We see or think, "Wow. That Mino has radar." when we see it.
1:01 ... Jingles, sir, you are Epic
My morning video - this actually wasn't boring. About 99% of WoWs is BBs on the back line, Shimakazes torping from 10 miles or CVs just doing CV stuff. Well done Jingles.
This is a player who understands that dead destroyers normally equals a win. Can't shoot what you can't see works both ways
Radar Minotaur makes the ship a ton of fun to play.
I had to go find a clip of the Monty Python Spanish Inquisition routine afterward and watch it again. Good times!!!
Well, I think we know why Jingles showed us this replay. A massive new vein of salt for his faithful minions to mine!
Minotaur drunkenly waving a flashlight around and stabbing everything within range.
The thing that makes the enemy team's saltiness even more salty is the Div have obviously played extremely well to carry the win, but instead of congratulating them, they all just whinge.
Radar Mino is the most likely to be radar, because it gets a decent gap between it's radar range and concealment it can stealth radar, unlike say Neptune which can't.
I bet this is how the salt mines are replenished with salt 😂
hope you good luck in every thing you do
picture this with John Cleese voicing a commander...
"What's that on the left?! Tor-PEE-does?!?! They had the nerve to launch Tor-PEE-does?!?!"
Hands-down my favorite ship. The Minotaur is so much fun to play.
As a Legends only player I run the Minotaur, Plymouth, and Edinborough all as radar cruisers. DD spotting range is quite commonly below 5km there. The Mino can be kitted out with surface detection that is lower than your radar range, meaning if you are spotted then there is a DD in range and they will die as long as it isn't a German AP slinging, cruiser health pool having abomination. Armor numbers are generally higher, and penetration a little lower in Legends as well, meaning smoke farming with AP on bow tanking targets isn't paticularly lucrative compared to just spamming HE with all the skills that can be put into fire breathing.
Ahh, the ol' spanish inquisition gag from Monty Python repurpoused for WoWS.
Good one, Jingles 😂
i loved that message effing minataur, great game
"Spanish Inquisition" Achievement unlocked...no one expected that!!!
9:49 5 inch gun barrage… Mino has 6 inch guns. Oh Jingles never change
The radar Minotaur, the surprise for everyone!
0:59 "Nobody expects the Spanish inquisition. Our chief weapon is surprise and fear..."
Thats right. Nobody expects a Radar Minotaur. Not even your own teammates
There's also the fact that Minotaur unlike Smolensk also has just enough belt and citadel deck armor to arm pretty much every AP shell in the game, unlike Smolensk whose 70mm belt is just narrowly thin enough to avoid arming 18" shells 76mm arming threshhold at close range. So long as the shell arcs are flat enough, the fuse won't even trigger.
There are 2 types of Radar Minos. They either hard carry, or get dev struck immediately.
Radar Minos are a hilarious surprise. From somebody who loves ambushing DDs, this made me happy (in my pants).
The minotaur is just made of citadels, it's my favourite cruiser to shoot at in any BB
that and any ship from dm line :D
@@imjust0negaming883 you can angle the mino armor against 208mm guns, at 230mm(Henri) you start getting overmatched
This is the truth, I always play the Mino and as soon as you're spotted every BB shoots at you.
If the Minotaur had more armor, there would be a risk of capsizing or sinking by the recoil force of all those gun salvos...
You do need to do the whole sketch, it's funny as h*ll!
Ah good ol Mino... Had my highest scoring match ever in one. Great ship, if it doesent just "randomly explode" that is.
Which happens more often than any Mino-enjoyer would admit. Greatest ship ever tho if you have the legmod.
wow, the whinnying was epic after this paddling. Next time bring a paddle with no holes in it, so the screams are more muffled.
Once I watched jingles show someone with a radar minotaur, I have not been able to play a normal minotaur again. This is just such a fun ship with radar that loves to punish sneaky DD's. Once you're spotted you play dumb for like 30 seconds then the DDs get too close and then get deleted hahahahaha. 10/10 recommend.
I think Searaptor said "There's two ways to play Minotaur. Radar Mino, and wrong."
Chad radar Mino chadding it up
"Surprise and fear, Well thats two things..."
No Grasshopper, It is not.
Radar Minotaurs and RN CLs in general is actually a lot more common than people think
"Bring out the comfy Radar!"
I have to admit. I saw the title and immediately panicked. Just yesterday I got completely deleted by a radar minotaur while playing my kita. I really did not expect it. For a moment I thought my first ever appearance on the channel would be by being cought with my pants down😅
“How many Battle rewards did you get”
“Yes”
Still my favorite ship I have played in this game..
I think I’ve run radar 5 times total in the span of some 600 battles in Minnie the Mooch
nice one 👍
Even more rare is the Radar Edinburgh, I have only seen a couple of those. I've also seen a Neptune running not smoke or radar, but the fighter plane of all things! (it was in a ranked, where no cvs could be found, to make it even more stupid)
Well that was a bit of gerrt lush then - nice to have a bit of salty seasoning with a Benham pie : )
Very nice.
I love hiding behind a cap in my Neptune and having DDs shit their pants when I use my radar
You aren't kidding about the thin armor on Mino. I've gotten citadels on them with HE.
Jingles, radar mino was rare back in like 2021 but now most people run it that way. If you're gonna run mino with smoke you might as well just play smolensk instead.
When I saw them bitching about a Radar Mino, all I could think of was that Indiana Jones line "How dare he?!".
@themightyjingles it is referred to on NA as the "MAN-o-taur" when equipped with radar
4:18 as Yuro would say, early game adrenaline rush
Good morning Gnome Overlord. All the best.
As soon as I saw the carrier lose his first run I rushed to leave this comment and like the video. Peace.
I expected the Radar Minotaur... because I read the video title !! :P :P
The Ontario is such a cool ship
Nobody expects a radar Edinburgh either, and always good fun to entice them to close in to get good torp angles and then turn the tables on them. You can nearly see the confusion and fear emanate from the screen as the radar lights them up. It is however just as much of a glass cannon as Mino.
I would also argue that with the ever increasing number of radar ships with ever increasing ranges, smoke screens are not that effective a lot of the time anyway.
Messed with the bull!
I've seen several Radar Mino's in randoms. Usually somebody expects them and they don't make it to Jingles.
You almost expect to see Palin, Jones and Gilliam strolling the deck.
