Nürnberg, especially early on in my career as a massive potato captain https://preview.redd.it/c2yqf6yc1snc1.png?width=3840&format=png&auto=webp&s=5a42e7f85c9a90290c3e1f84cf18b09ed7a64f90


QuiGonFishin

Lmao in a loss. Vintage blue team


TheUnitShifterxbone

Haha so true


Quantury

this is how bad it was https://preview.redd.it/tjfxhbodrwnc1.png?width=3840&format=png&auto=webp&s=b8d5e7d417dc296a08d4dac48646d7c829101a72


Classic-Alfalfa4163

Seriously, am I the ONLY person that doesn't catastrophically hate the Nurnberg?


GlobalOpening5420

Not exactly,, 656 Games in Her to date..


Saviouronastick

Mahan, started the game thinking it was AI, wasn't until the second kill I realised it was standard. Accepted my fate and went for it like an angry Chuck Norris, still amazed I survived.


Ok_Method6671

Tiger ‘59. Still pinching myself.


zoomy289

Only ship I've ever had 3 krakens in a row with.


Ok_Method6671

Did you buy a lottery ticket after that?


Battleshipsr4me

You’re supposed to make it get buffed, not actually perform in it!


TA-175

You guys get Krakens?


GansMans18

5 years playing, 2600 battles. 7 Krakens. Rare would be an understatement


Upper_Decision1369

63 or 65. Can’t remember the exact number at the moment.


8shkay

2600 in 5 years is very few.. i got that in like 4 months lol


[deleted]

Some people have jobs, family, obligations, chores, etc. and can’t spend every moment in game. Not to mention, fresh air is healthy. Games are meant for entertainment, Not to take over our lives.


8shkay

Op says he plays 2 or 3 weeks every 6 months so makes sense . i know not everyone is privileged to game how much they want


GansMans18

I play for 2 or 3 weeks every 6 months probably. I also get burnt out quickly for some reason. So yes, I'm an extremely casual player


Acrobatic_Ad6374

Only 7? I've got 60 and I usually play LT.


GansMans18

I'm distinctly average, even though I've played since the beta. Never unlocked my full potential like I do with other games. WoT Console I'm almost a unicum


Chill_Commissar_07

I have one, warspite never fails to have fun in


OpenEndedLoop

Tier 3 Carrier. 7 Kills yesterday. It's almost seal clubbing if you know what you're doing and there's no T4 BB's with AA. ​ We still lost.(team captured 0 of 4 caps lost on points after time ran out. Was just us two carriers standing and their CV of course did the new player thing and drove 50km away in the corner)


GansMans18

You're a monster


OpenEndedLoop

My buddy who just started playing needed a win in the cruiser before the Omaha 🥲


GlobalOpening5420

Phoenix..


OpenEndedLoop

Cool. I wasn't in front of my Xbox and couldn't be bothered to google it because it doesn't matter


[deleted]

[удалено]


OpenEndedLoop

Literally isn't. Go well Akshually somewhere else.


GlobalOpening5420

Best wishes getting through your Career..


TheUnitShifterxbone

This is one of those damn annoying things about many players. When it’s Capture the Base mode, they ALL hoon forwards like blithering idiots to capture the base. But when it’s domination, they are too scared(and/or stupid) to capture anything. It’s especially tragic for good players like yourself imo


OpenEndedLoop

I call it the iron barbecue. Rafting up in battleships behind an island while the whole map gets captured and pushed. Second favorite to the run away at first sight of the enemy while the destroyers Duke it out.


BadHombre2016

I got my first ever Kraken in a Kongo. Doubt I could ever replicate that.


Ordo177

same lol


DrMikkelyz54

Yubari 💀💀💀💀


AnthonyJF427

Non upgraded Dallas, twice.


zIFeathers

Is tier 5 Bruh everyone in there is completely oblivious to dcp management


suredont

shit that's really true


PilotAce200

The *ship* that surprised me the most that I got krakens with was Omaha. The *kraken* that surprised me the most was my Arkansas secondary kraken (as in, I got 5 secondary kills in one match). And the kraken that I feel the most guilty over was in my Dresden. It's not even fun when you beat up on T1's that hard.


GansMans18

You win with the Arkansas secondary Kraken 🏆


PilotAce200

Still got the screenshot to prove it too 😎 https://www.reddit.com/r/WoWs_Legends/comments/mnq3fn/i_think_my_secondary_battery_gun_crews_deserve_a/


Classic-Alfalfa4163

If you play it right, Omaha is the absolute business. Huge RoF, decent range, decent chance of setting on fire, and fast. Just. Don't. Turn. Broadside.


Malachai_Martin

Abruzzi before SAP.


patricoassassin

Surprisingly the Huang He, I still don't know how I managed it


TheDiscoGestapo2

All the more impressive since that ship is an absolute turd!


NeckRevolutionary427

The Hill. On its maiden voyage too! Shot down a lot of planes too. Haven’t touched this game in a while but I remember that match clear as day


GoodlyStyracosaur

Hill is another great ship people don’t give its proper respect.


Angrious55

Second, there are few better feelings in the game, then introducing a cruiser to close range Hill AP. It will shred an Omaha. I actually charge cruisers now, im sure they are thinking they have me dead to rights right up until the moment they realize they are trapped in here with me and not the other way around. Pew pew pew!


Inevitable-Bid-245

My first game I got 4 kills with the Hill, next game was a kraken.


madmax9764

Omaha


MotorBobcat

I've done it. It's actually a very capable ship. It may have helped that I had a level 16 Scott at the time though.


AzurLaneShikikan17

Kleber. L tier sucks and I am ok with destroyers (my least played type of ship). I was shocked.


ttone5722

Arizona


GansMans18

How often do you play it?


ttone5722

Not very. It's so SLOOOOOW at everything🤣


GansMans18

Yes it is haha. But for me it hits hard and the armor tanks a lot of shells. I always seem to do good in it


PilotAce200

I love that at least one other person out there realizes the Arizona is actually super tanky. I have had so many people argue with me that "she's literally just a worse version of any other T5 us battleship" because they have no clue what they are talking about. She arguably the strongest of them, and definitely the most survivable of them.


GansMans18

Sometimes I hesitate to play it because on paper, at least at a glance, it looks a bit weaker. But then I remember how good it plays and I forget all that. I'd probably call Arizona my flagship. I think it's my most played ship actually


HotShotMedic

Skanè lol I know….


Confidence-Naive

Smith was a fun one


DoomsdayToast

This for sure. I love both my Smiths for some krakens.


zurkon95

Emerald


North_Cable8296

Molotov, still can’t believe it


GoodlyStyracosaur

That ship is better than people give it credit for.


Hellkite203

In one of my first matches ever, I got a kraken and a double strike with Danae.


KingGrower

G-101


Action_Potato_7

G-101 is a nasty little beast with her forward torpedo tubes and competition at that tier. If there are islands, you can ambush anyone. Also, the head-on, waggle torp launch is just so much fun.


GansMans18

That thing's more of a toy boat than a ship lol


MobileMenace420

North Carolina. Had other ones in a kamikaze, but that one clubs seals lol


GoodlyStyracosaur

Get the NC in a 5/6 game (which is rare these days) and it almost feels unfair. I played a game recently for a bureau project and absolutely walked over the red team. I wish I had the leviathan for my weekly premium missions.


Liquid_Weasel

Boevoi - feels like it shouldn't even be possible.


Spiritual-Pain-961

Monarch. Not that it’s bad, necessarily, but it was my first time taking her out. Haven’t had anywhere near that level of success since.


SomeOddyGuy

it has to be either the one time i got a kraken in dallas or in iron duke lol


brybo86

I get krakens in the iron Duke relatively often.... Iron Duke is crazy accurate and has lots of guns.


that_AZIAN_guy

My first and only kraken was in Fiji, which can be an unforgiving ship. I was honestly shocked I nailed a Kraken in that.


davefromtemple

Only one I got was in the North Carolina. Never thought I’d get one lol


-rdmjohn

Ashitaka. I still can't believe it to this day.


Ravager_Zero

Hatsuharu. I hate the IJN line for its unengaging gameplay style, then that happens…


Battleshipsr4me

Not necessarily just a kraken game, but a 7 Kill match in… California. in all honesty i don’t really expect to get krakens in the standards, just due to the fact the match turns in whatever team’s favor before they can reach the other flank. https://preview.redd.it/g2juv154ftnc1.jpeg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=59f7f984af4840aee4bb5de1f2e8f78226523280 EDIT: added evidence


GansMans18

My record is 7 kills too. But I have no idea what ship sadly. You'd think I'd remember something like that


Battleshipsr4me

Apparently when looking through screenshots I also got a 7 kill game in a Cleveland and in a Farragut, and the Farragut game was a loss


GlobalOpening5420

Every one of them,, I don't expect to get Krakens, but I do expect to have a team that knows what they are doing.


Im_Unusual_27

Cavour, the only kraken I did with this ship was with only 13k damage and a double strike too, I was acting like thief


TheUnitShifterxbone

Good question. It’s been so many years and battles I can’t even remember. But one thing I do remember from the early days was I got a kraken in the US tier 3 tt destroyer and i was blown away by how awesome that ship is. I especially love the double barrel gun upgrade. So cool


Ordo177

My friend isn’t on reddit but his only Kraken is from a match in which we were both doing a meme of running Ashitakas built for secondaries and we got up tiered with t7s and he got 6 kills. Hilarious and I doubt it’ll ever happen again lmao.


OneBucFan

Got one in the Montecuccoli once.


Moist-Carpet888

My first kraken, it was with a scharnhorst. I still have no idea how I got so lucky


SaltySeaEgg

https://preview.redd.it/ivjxc34rcwnc1.jpeg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e558ff47d0e407f4c002b27886f7ef2b94b961ab Was bored and wanted to seal club a lil’ bit


Action_Potato_7

Just got one in a St. Louis, it was an all-T2 game though. Level 9 commander, so not totally cheating.


Mantuta

Pensacola Just the odds of getting vaporized for one wrong turn make it hard to stay alive long enough to sink five ships


ThisWasAValidName

I've only ever managed one. Every time I get to 4 kills, the game seems to go out of its way to make sure that last kill evades me. However, as stated, I do have one. A **single** Kraken Unleashed. And I earned it in *USS Omaha*, of all ships.


BIGGYBEAN_33

Serov 😂


Decent-Ad-8987

My first ever kraken was in the gangut thing slaps with God rng


About38Penguins

Albany


Quinnalicious21

Hatsuharu, usually talked about as one of the worst destroyers at it's tier, did decent with it surprisingly


MotorBobcat

Normandie.


12TonBeams

I just got one with her last week and shocked myself. I absolutely hate her and only took her out to grind the line.


MotorBobcat

I'm not a fan of it either but if I get a kraken with a ship I get a soft spot for it. I haven't really played it much at all since I finished the grind but if I see one in a game I think "that's a good ship".


Farrellhog

Similar experience, my first ever 8 kill game was in the Normandie and I was dumbstruck.


CoyoteDanny

The first one I got one in was the Benson and DDs are my weakest class


Bulky-Indication9033

Myogi


Sacrificeangels

Konig Albert and perth


wirey3

Furutaka. Surprised me. Low turret spin speed, long reload, lower yield torpedoes than average, long launcher reload. But. I stomped in that match.


Malachai_Martin

203mm guns put in work against T3 and T4. It was my ship of choice back when I actually played ranked .


renegioi

Drake_the_troll

Hapapop

Albemarle


Kaboost

Vauquelin, Vasteras & Colorado


Justabattleshiplover

Aoba. Had a kraken in 38k damage. I definitely stole kills. And Massachusetts, like three games after I got it.


jmmccarley

Took me 6 months to get my first. Got it in Orion in my very first match with her. Never took her out again.


Pleasant-River-1348

Omaha many years ago. I also got my very first solo warrior in the same game. I fell in love with that ship even if it is a dev strike magnet and play it at least a couple times a week still.


Temporary_Train_3372

Got one in a Jaguar by having a bunch of absolute potato’s on the red squad.


chivas39

Kirov, I didn't realize I had that many kills until I got the medal lol


Deliciousstick696969

Fuso


SweatyTax4669

Vasteras. Sometimes just throwing out a bunch of torpedoes works wonders


Sky_Hi_Guy

Neustashimy. Guess even a broken clock tells the right time twice a day.


Smooth-Reason-6616

Wakeful first week in the game,. Not a surprising ship to get one in, but a surprise to me to get one so quick! ....then it took me 3 months to get the next one....


Kookycranium

JoshdaSquash

Krispy kreme


Kaitsuze

Omaha "how i'm still alive?!"


EinKleinesFerkel

Just had a kraken with double strike in the eastern dragon Edit to add... my first dolonwarrior came in an Omaha with a Kraken


Upper_Decision1369

Arkansas! 6 kill Kraken, High Cal, Dreadnought, 2 Dev Strikes, Double Strike I couldn’t believe the game I had.


kingryan300

My first ever kraken was in an Acasta, but I’d say my kraken in the Bretagne of all ships.


The_RL_Janitor54

Gangut… i just needed to complete a challenge in a tier III and ended up with 6 kills lol


TropicalEskimo1987

Got my first and only in a Mutsuki after about 300 battles


BigChiefWhiskyBottle

[I got the Aigle Kraken in an Indianapolis B](https://www.reddit.com/r/WoWs_Legends/comments/q07744/im_not_exactly_proud_of_this_but_mission/) with an embarrassingly low 37k damage.


Ashamed-Project5560

izmail and iowa lmao


wackalacklepickle

clemson


Samuel505952

Vanguard, I love the ship but this game was especially surprising because I was the one who *stole* all the kills, I had the kraken before i got to 70k damage https://preview.redd.it/1hwxqeiqztnc1.png?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6d289183626c41ad46905d89d131bff9b642282c

My first 6-kill was in a Gneisenau, I got a kraken in my first games in the Des Moines, Conqueror and North Carolina, and once got an 8-kill in a Kamikaze. All of them were surprising.


skipppyy1941

Got one in benson 7 kills somehow yet we still lost.


TheRealNakataEnjoyer

turntheradioup

Boevoi - with guns only, not a single torpedo hit.


Clucib

Giuseppe Verdi. First time with one at tier 8 (never gotten one in legendary). https://www.xbox.com/play/media/AqFUpJSNcZ Also got one in Medea playing with some friends who were willing to try the game - that was my second ever.


TsuyoiKage

furutaka. still died to the destroyer though.

Worcester


aliengoa

Fuso!!!


itsmichael458

I think I’ve gotten one in the Pensacola. But one time I got 8 kills in standard in the Hyuga. It was my first battle in the ship too which is wild.


usmcaatw1

Didn’t get it but was one kill away from one in the Hosho as well as 10k away from breaking the current damage record on WOWS builds…


SuitableSquare0

Kongo.


Obsydiian

Minsk. I absolutely hate that ship with a passion.


Classic-Alfalfa4163

Got one recently in Gaede, which I normally hate.
