So, the place seems kind of dead lately and I haven't seen many on WoWS. Hope all of you are doing well.
That said, how many of you are going to participate in ranked? What ships are you going to use?
I'll be playing with my Cleveland, De Grasse, and Nurnberg primarily (I know the Nurn is a "weak" ship, but I actually do better in it than any other T6 cruiser). Might give the Perth and Molotov a try and Budyonny, even though I can't seem to make the Budyonny work for me. I may try the Duca, but I don't see it being strong. I suck with the Leander...so I'll leave that in the port.
I played Season 6 (my first season to play) and made it to Rank 7 in a week; so I'm hoping participating for the full duration I might make Rank 1. Wish a potato luck!

I've never played ranked at all but the Tier VI level is tempting. I'm thinking that the Perth and De Grasse would be my weapons of choice, although I'll probably not be able to play much for a while.

I played last ranked season... Didn't feel very worthwhile, the salt I generated was enough to make a new Dead Sea out of a lake... So I'm probably gonna skip ranked this time around. Maybe next season.

Dunno how its shaping up on the NA server but the EU server is full of moron teams. I still believe that Ranked battles should be limited to T9 and T10. Its making me evaluate my life right now lol.

Ranked on NA has been an asswhipping for me in a cruiser. I'd recommend a BB or DD for the upper levels of ranked - I have neither...so I'll keep plugging away with cruisers, but it's damn sure an uphill battle.

I'd say either T8 or T10. IMO many of the ships at T9 just really aren't good/fun. I suspect it'd be a lot of FDG, Missouri, and Fletcher. I guess that's not fair, I can't really think of a bad T9. I just didn't enjoy them on the PTS like I did the T8 or T10.

I played one in my Ryujo and got my ass handed to, think I'll pass. Maybe when I have a 19 point captain and have a better idea of what I'm doing I'll give it another shot.

I've been playing ranked with the Arizona. Can confirm I am now much more successful in general and feel like I have much more carry potential in case we lose a ship or two as compared to when I was playing cruisers. All the T6 BBs (except maybe Dunkek/Mutsu) are very competitive.

Well I decided to give it another try, took a lesson from the guy who beat me and went with a fighter loadout on my Ryujo. I'm at rank 19 right now. I hate Clevelands, and Arizonas! I wish the team would focus on them! One time I had a match against a Independence, with a bomber/torpedo loadout. Once he saw my 3 fighter squads he didn't even send out planes! So half my team chases him down anyways and we end up losing! Oh well. I'll enjoy the flags!
