however, though she and the other QEs were called the world's first fast BB, they would be listed as "slow" as they do not meet the 28-knot in-game minimum speed requirement for it to be classed as "fast". Just a reminder: The devs' announcement on the live event was "a non-famous" British warship.

So the more famous Warspite was, the less likely this QE-class to be her. Libeccio's 17:00 hourly... Bismarck's hourly told us of Scharnhorst, she's not here yet.

Hamakaze mentioned Shinano, she's not here yet, too.

The Akizuki sisters mentioned Fuyuzuki and Suzutsuki, but there's no space in the library for them at the moment.

Quotes are kind of a reference, but not a proof.

Plus, ususally talking about the enemy doesn't count. A certain DD (forgot who) mentioned F4F wildcat, Kaga mentioned 5th CarDiv engaging USS Lexington, Bismarck mentioned Fairey Swordfish, but no one takes them seriously. I'm not saying it's 100% Warspite at this point based on a single ingame line. There's plenty of other ships that have been mentioned but we have yet to hear from the devs whether we'll be seeing them anytime soon. But with the announcement that a Queen Elizabeth class BB is being introduced, there's nothing wrong with making an assumption from it either, is there?

That said, Warspite is a rather decorated ship and though the devs may not have given any such hints on which particular sister of the Queen Elizabeth's it might be, there's nothing excluding her from the possible candidate we'll be getting this event as of yet.

In the end... (and this is just my own personal opinion)

My money's on Warspite.
