Before we go any further, it's best that we start this with one of the most important pieces of advice we can give you: '''Just because a DD ''can'' run a reliable TPCI doesn't mean a DD ''should'' run a TPCI.''' Torpedo Cut-Ins are fundamentally ''options'' that should be used appropriately, while they are more powerful than double attacks, they are also less reliable, you can have 60 luck in a flag position with skilled lookouts and/or searchlights, starshells, lucky charms, blood sacrifices, whatever. She ''will still'' CI less consistently than she would perform with a DA setup.

Torpedo CI DDs all have one thing in common: good luck.

The reason TPCI DDs are TPCI DDs is because they all have one thing in common: good luck.

* Ayanami is one of the best DDs overall, 72FP places her 1 behind Yuudachi, and she'd be

* Ayanami (40 luck) is one of the best DDs overall, 72FP places her 1 behind Yuudachi. Ayanami would be one of the best DDs whether or not she had such luck, and is often used with a double attack set in any case.

* By K2 standards, Ushio is very weak, she's essentially comparable to, nonetheless, she's a low priority in general, but it's important to appr

 

 

* Hatsushimo has 50 luck, and is essentially a weaker version of Shigure, who is herself fairly mediocre by the late-middle game, her remodelling at level 70 places her in competition with many far better choices.

* Kasumi has 37 luck, is weaker than Ayanami, but still extremely strong, she's better off used to carry daihatsus than as a TPCI DD.

* Ushio with her 32 luck is very weak (by K2 standards), essentially only slightly better than a non-K2 DD, but do note that the option does exist in desperate situations.
