Hi, I'm Kuras. I started playing KanColle mid-March, at the day or the day after Iwakawa's server launch.

My only waifu in KanColle is Kongou. BURNING LOVE!!

KanColle has many cute anime girls. However, I am more of a pragmatist. I mostly prefer to sortie the effective and efficient ships, rather than whoever I like most.

My career as a teitoku=Since my second month playing the game, I've been consistently in the top 500 at least, mostly in the top 100 and once in top 20. Also probably among the "firsts" to reach HQ level 120 on my server. Nowadays, I just take it easy and go for top 500 to remain eligible for some rewards.

I have participated in all events since Spring 2014 and cleared all of the event maps, on hard difficulty if possible, with the exception of Spring 2014 E-5. I got "worried" after reading stories about how hard that map was supposed to be and decided not to bother with it. (No Sakawa T_T) Now, I'm certain I could've cleared that map too. Morale of the story: NEVER GIVE UP! Certainly not without having given it a shot yourself! Believe!

I 'm always looking forward to the next event. It is one of the (now) few things that keep me playing KanColle. However, recent events have been too easy for teitokus like me. Hopefully the devs will do a "difficult" one again.

These girls are hiding from me. :/ I'll get them one day!

Some tips(/rants), just basic points and common sense
 * When dealing with the "harder" maps, stay relaxed and just keep trying. I hate people talking about their "sanity". It's just overreaction, or they're just under-prepared. Find something else to do perhaps, to distract yourself a bit. Don't accidentally sink any of your ships though!


 * There is no need to stockpile more than 30-40k for an event, even if you decide to rush it. Also, posting your resources on wiki or the forum is dumb as well. No point in this, people are just bragging on the web. Oh well, who am I to stop these people.

More rants I like to rant and criticize a lot. Popular opinions are not always the correct ones, neither are mine.
 * Get your ships adequately leveled. This too helps with keeping the resource consumption down, as your ships are less likely to get hit.
 * Sparkling for every single sortie is not always wise and efficient. This is especially the case for heavier fleets. Sometimes it is just more efficient not to sparkle and take a couple of more attempts.
 * I used quotation marks in combination with the words "difficult" and "hard" above, because the game is not difficult at all, it is just RNG after all. Only thing you can do is to pray, once you've sent the right fleet composition to a sortie. KanColle takes no skill. I've heard/read people saying otherwise. They are just dumb imo. Furthermore, you can't really get "pro" at this game, other than just knowing how the game works.
