Yeah, does anyone have a version in the original japanese so I can watch with subtitles? I really dislike this dub.

I think you're using Sarcasm however I think you're serious.
This is the most awkwardly worded sentence in this situation.

Followed by backing up. I am startled by how many people don't know these ships have reverse.

Don't use the R F throttle keys. Try rebinding to the mouse buttons. Rebinding keys is essential for efficiency.

My 1234 is F mouse3 mouse4 Q (Side mouse buttons). Chem/buff first, hydro/spyglass last.

Shift and control are voice chat (Caps for TS). C map, X tab, V captain spot (thumb buttons).

Unless you are ramming, keep some distance. No need to hug the enemy

Unless you are ramming into terrain, don't end a ram in full forwards. Ideally you want to be burning in full reverse at the end of the ram. This keeps you in position, the last thing you want is to knock yourself off.
