Key Features:

Maya is armed with eight powerful 203-mm guns that have high accuracy and chance to cause a fire by HE shells, but low firing range. She also is equipped with four 610-mm quadruple torpedo tubes with wide aiming angles, and high torpedo damage, and speed.

Maya has good concealment, high speed and HP pool, well-armoured deck, but a vulnerable citadel. She is equipped with a Main Battery Reload Booster consumable, which is not standard for Japanese cruisers, along with the Repair Party and Fighter consumables, and a choice between the Defensive AA Fire or Hydroacoustic Search consumables in a single slot. 

In comparison with Atago, Maya is equipped with Main Battery Reload Booster and has more powerful and faster torpedoes. At the same time, she has fewer main battery guns, less armoured deck, as well as a lower range and higher reload time of torpedoes.
