actually, in world of warships things are more forgiving as a general rule. sure, you still have the potential to get obliterated in a single salvo - but if you play intelligently, that just doesn't happen.

Destroyers are difficult to spot, extremely agile, can lay down smoke screens, and possess the most powerful torpedo armaments in the game that can obliterate even battleships

Cruisers are balanced, often with a mix of guns and torpedoes, capable of fighting anything, anywhere

Battleships bring long-ranged firepower, as well as being extremely tough and packing a punch

and carriers are the air support, though they're being reworked in WoW (not sure about blitz).

but i have to say - if you get obliterated quickly, you're doing it wrong. you can always turn tail and flee - actually, the worst ships for that are typically cruisers, as they are slightly slower than destroyers but significantly more vulnerable than battleships. Also, as they possess citadels, there is a significantly greater potential to be oneshotted.
