World of Warships: Blitz Stats

• A very big target

• In a Domination battle, stay at medium range, snipe cruisers.

• Not your typical carrier  speed: 24.45 KN

• You do not have any secondaries: They were subsidized by the planes.

• DO NOT BRAWL!!!! This ship is surprisingly fragile

• Dispersion fairly good, but try focusing on scouting

• More of a team player; Use it for fun battles with your friends

• The bombers are good at setting fires: 25%

• She is equipped with 3 charges of Precise Aim I

• NEVER show your broadside to another tier 7 BB; they will delete you! (Rooke, Sinop, Colorado)

• Sadly, this is the only Japanese Battlecarrier, although there is a T8 cruiser: Tone!!!!
