It does, but not very fast -- the Peons' attack is still slow and not very much for each attack (and reduced by Fortified armor), and they are min-tomes-of-XP for your opponent.
Shockwave do so much damage on building, this is nuts! Too much feeding with your hero's deaths. Maybe, keep the staff of teleportation and "hit and run" with Shockwave on minor building. Great game as always. I wish you the best for you and your family. Thank you and take care.
its funny, that is how i used to play my W3 campaigns when the game was new to me, i just used the heroes to fight, and turtle up my bases with towers so i dont have to manage armies
Regarding how Pillage functions, is it possible in a FFA match for 2 orc players to feed one another by repairing a building that is being spam attacked by units with Pillage?
In hero only strats it should always be deemed acceptable to use zeppelins and sappers. And it's more immoral to lose than to use units in a last effort to win.
Healing and mana potions recover a flat amount. When your max health or mana changes, it stays at the same percentage as it was at before, rather than the same flat number. So if you're at 75/150 health, then drop an item that was giving you 50 bonus health, you'd be at 50/100. You can then heal for 50, going up to 100/100, then pick the item back up to be at 150/150. Effectively increasing the amount of healing you get.
the circlet gives him more health which takes longer time to heal back up so he drops it giving him a lower health bar and reequipped it back once he has healed
@@bvknjafvibao I've been explaining this for years on DotA and the explanation always gets real messy, this is the cleanest I've ever seen someone explain it, cheers
Great video, however I think we deserve a real attempt at this challenge using the proven principles of solo-hero not some weird peon macro. You have to put on constant pressure while tower creeping, don't let them get xp. The attempt to solo-creep with shockwave basically doomed your strat from the get-go.
I wonder if watch tower creep at the end might have worked? It seemed like UD often took a look of damage on the wyrms when taking buildings, and if you defend with TC you might be able to kill them one by one. Awesome video regardless - we'll just ignore the bats :P
Ngl, when I saw it was a near hour long video, I didn't except grubby to still be level 5 more than halfway through. I'm a little confused as to why he didn't utilize speed scroll more in this game to get a little xp from low hp units and then run over and over considering the enemy had 0 stuns. Instead it kind of just became a mass peon game.
TC is kinda whack for solo hero challenge. Ultimate could have make a difference here but tbh Blademaster is the undefeated champion for solo. Bladestorm shreds entire armies.
Hit n Run with Shockwave on buildings? Repairs would cost him. Also why unholy aura as final item when you have endurance? The regen is too little for a single unit, the MS does not stack, Circlet would probably be better, or Claws (if more dmg than Orb) or even another Orb ...
The stomp was really bad this game. It took away your ability to use the shockwave. It would probably have been better with shockwave and endurance. Maybe stomp was okay at level 2, but from 4 and beyond it would have been better with endurance and reincarnation.
Losing TC lvl 5 3x in a row cuz no TP bought and then on lvl 6 not training resurrection and losing it on lvl 6 didnt help with the game either :D DK and lich exp went almost entirely out of those 4 loses :D
yoo crist you should rly have tooltip integration on a code base level. So when some freakin const. gets redefined and messes up all documentation, it should instead be linked in a computer science fashion, so the docs are never displaying values that are off to the code base!!! but until i am not going to fullfill my profession and become the software architect i am, but instead enjoy my time, stuff like this will never get any better
Description should have mentioned bats or that there were something more than peons trained, feel tricked. But the game was long but fun to watch, thank you, but some of your games recently are low on dance and music energy without any special reason (I haven't watched you earlier kinda many years because of this), but the gimmick ones have a tendency to have more energy. 😀
Peon with a log on his shoulder is a mini tauren
lol close enough..
Valid point valid point... 😢
Next patch: Pulverize upgrade applies to Peons carrying logs
@@ВладиславШаклеин-ч7м why not, working class has rights too
@@ВладиславШаклеин-ч7мbut their pulverize only works on critters
I love how pillage turns your enemies buildings into mini gold mines late game xD

The call out at 11 minutes was lovely, "Hmm. Grubby?"
TC sacrifice was like a beautiful queen sacrifice in chess… brilliant play.
High upkeep with just a TC and peons. Now I've seen everything.
It's okay grubby, the ends justify the memes
35:03 I did not see that coming 😂😂
44:10 Thriller music just finished as grubby killed the critter LOL
Thank you for the video!
Got here for WC3, ended up at E.T.C. solo concert.
35:12 thats awesome the guy joined your fun instead of being a total sweaty try hard
1:38 there´s a camera transition magic happening with both the peon that is scouting and the one in Grubby´s base
lol nice
Good one
The opponent was a gigachad sport
he asks if grub so he most likely a fan and grub lies to him
This new Pimp My Peon map looking great, also that lvl 6 Lich tanking the horde of peons was fucking epic
your skill and limit understanding in this game is so insane :D
i love it
ggs
I think it's a success for Grubby's opponent that he managed to get Grubby to make a non-peon unit
Shockwave do so much damage on building, this is nuts! Too much feeding with your hero's deaths. Maybe, keep the staff of teleportation and "hit and run" with Shockwave on minor building.
Great game as always. I wish you the best for you and your family. Thank you and take care.
3:30 this acolyte lol
grubby I have never seen a more entertaining game, I Love how you keep wc3 alive and strong all these years :)
This is how I tried to play when I was 10yrs old. I did not understand the game well enough to pull it off... Much to my ally's dismay
Day 10 asking Grubby to stream more often on TH-cam. (:
Twitch makes my head hurt. I hope BetterTTV emotes stay away from YT
34:08 looks like an age of mythology army XD
9:42 the showckwave summoned the defeat music when it didnt hit the death knight
I wish you would do another solo tinker, it's been like 4 years since I saw a really good one
Grubby 2023 : "Is it necessary to drink my own urine?"
9:16
its funny, that is how i used to play my W3 campaigns when the game was new to me, i just used the heroes to fight, and turtle up my bases with towers so i dont have to manage armies
43:37 "a little bit", it`s just like when you say during sex "just the tip" but you knows whats coming after.
You're out of context, but Yeah...
A vod so nice I watched it twice!
32:24 a shot of how it looked when I started playing WC3 and thought it was similar to Age of Empires, rofl.
Next challenge: solo workers - 2h56min video
Blizard could make peon's attack has siege dmg. Cause it's like so weak unit, it should have something good to be useful.
That was winnable
Grubby got distracted when that dude show his acolytes in the battlefield and let his massive peons die.
@@wilder_meirahe just can’t refuse that glory battle
I've been playing for all these years, and I completely forgot that pillage works for Peon
then again, I am a noob
The great worker uprising of 2023
Regarding how Pillage functions, is it possible in a FFA match for 2 orc players to feed one another by repairing a building that is being spam attacked by units with Pillage?
now that's what I call peon your enemy
imo this was winnable due to lvl 3 wave. he just had 15 buildings. just telestaff rinse repeat and tower bottom right.
Right? I thought he still had a real chance.
Why, you mean these 20 Troll Bat Riders? Officer they're strictly for self-defense purposes I promise you
I never knew peons could pillage.😅
Live and learn.
Did anyone saw that smooth peon transition
“It’s a draw” lol
21:15 he sacrificed the TTCCCCC
Work Work , Work complete
Not as good as a well hydrated Panda 🐼
In hero only strats it should always be deemed acceptable to use zeppelins and sappers. And it's more immoral to lose than to use units in a last effort to win.
Can anyone explain why he does this move where he quickly drops the circlet and picks it back up?

I am already getting more than I deserve.
@@chill_fridge True, but a good troll never breaks character: Grubby is a pro player teaching high level strategy after all!
Can someone tell me how Grubby binds keys to units? He has like 5 binds and when i’m playing ive got no idea how to 😀
Select the group you want, hold CNTRL and then press either 1-9 to set it to one of those keys.
shift # to add units to groups and control # to reset whole groups. pretty sure grubby does 1-6 for units and 7-0 for buildings
@@storm0fnova well in this match, he had bestiary 4 , altar 5, main hall 6
New Grubby ❤
omg 1 hero and workers only vs 1 hero and workers only challenge! Must be same race.
Hi Grubby, with that many wood it's not better to just spam turret everywhere and there and then tower rush the base ?
Ravens have somewhat limited energy, so spamming turrets is... wait. This is WC3, what turrets do you mean??
@@chill_fridge To win the game he could also with peons use Towers but I think he just wanted to only use peons as damage dealer.
I don't know what i watched, but i enjoyed it.
Next Challange: only wisps and love
Grubby doesn't take 3rd skill but get drums. Still not lvl 6, gets extra reincarnation
Such humiliation, i find myself empathising with the ud.
I’m on a grub frenzy
I wonder if watch tower creep at the end might have worked? It seemed like UD often took a look of damage on the wyrms when taking buildings, and if you defend with TC you might be able to kill them one by one.
Awesome video regardless - we'll just ignore the bats :P
He got into a macro mindset while playing solo hero, classic strategic blunder.
i said that avatar ended it
Does the goblin shop change items for sale?
No. Its a fixed item system. But, that Merchant item in other maps, they give random items.
This man always cook.
8:15
I guess you dont misjudge, but rather assume subconsciously that yoy have speed boost from aura

I haven't finished watching yet, but selling Gloves of Haste hurt me.
1 hero do be rough on the item slots
Well, he is Very fast in atk speed already, so it he doesn't really need it but more survivability does.
couldn' t you just long distance mine like crazy while you are building up peons for an attack?
Grubby APM with one hero 5x me with an entire army.
if you were 10 years younger, LOL
good game Grubby
10:48 when he asked "hmmm Grubby?" why did you say "no"? What was the secret in hiding your identity? or did you just not want to chat?
thanks for explaining the rest of the game real well
Bats wasted in the end.
his war3 looks way better than I remember; is it what it looks like in reforged, or is he using mods?
It is reforged but he is using the old Wc3 models. You can ssitch between them in reforged. I guess it's optimized too.
call of tauren modern war peons 3
Hit n Run with Shockwave on buildings? Repairs would cost him.
Also why unholy aura as final item when you have endurance? The regen is too little for a single unit, the MS does not stack, Circlet would probably be better, or Claws (if more dmg than Orb) or even another Orb ...
Heel Grubby is best
Peon Chieftain

Hey dota subs here, l dont really understand why grubby left the game? Enemy got 0 gold left right? And grubby has alot of tower defense
Cool game but obviously another attempt is mandatory.
Grub army 💪🏿💪🏿.
GG
Losing TC lvl 5 3x in a row cuz no TP bought and then on lvl 6 not training resurrection and losing it on lvl 6 didnt help with the game either :D DK and lich exp went almost entirely out of those 4 loses :D
pillage very strong
Try to win a game by only using the mouse, no keyboard.
You want to kill him? He can't NOT use his two hands . He could play a 2 V 2 With 2 Mouse tho !
he already did that recently
He actually did that I think recently
@@Syleion yes, with low apm challenge but he failed the challenge. Dude can click faster than me with 2 hands
He won a FFA of 4 players without the keyboard.
Grubby can you please try and get a pro to coach you on invoker, would be the dream content for a lot of people!
why grubby doesnt play reforged? is reforge out already?
It is, he is playing it. It's just old models he is using.
reforged is dog doo doo, noone likes it, everyone hates it, etc etc
@@Hartwellx thanks for the clarification. so basically hes playing reforge using old model? rip blizzard 😂
Could you play more only ONE HERO game!! I wish I can play like this.
gg
Haven't finished the video but that dude was totally watching ur stream
He did not need the bats... just invis or invo + mass shockwave until the last base collapsed
1 hero 80 pop xD
Do human 3-hero some time with a decent opponent!
👀
yoo crist you should rly have tooltip integration on a code base level.
So when some freakin const. gets redefined and messes up all documentation,
it should instead be linked in a computer science fashion, so the docs are never displaying values that are off to the code base!!!
but until i am not going to fullfill my profession and become the software architect i am, but instead enjoy my time, stuff like this will never get any better
sub to the grub 👍
I would have kept watching that for another hour. You should have switched to miserly def mode. He had no money.
Next time pls a challenge where you will not use any spells of your hero while using no units.
so just a rush on the enemy workers? that doesn't sound too fun...
Challenge: you can attack other enemy units only if he has no alive workers.
😆😆😆
Unfortunately using the bats voids the challenge. If you want to just make sure you win, that’s cool, but it voids the challenge
Description should have mentioned bats or that there were something more than peons trained, feel tricked. But the game was long but fun to watch, thank you, but some of your games recently are low on dance and music energy without any special reason (I haven't watched you earlier kinda many years because of this), but the gimmick ones have a tendency to have more energy. 😀
