The French also say “gg” a lot whether at the beginning or end of a game. It’s probably because things like “bon voyage”, “bon weekend”, “bon vent” translate literally to “good trip”, “good weekend”, “good wind”. So they’re not saying “this was a good game”, they really mean “I wish you good gaming”.
@7:44 It didn't say, "Our town is under siege." but, "Our forces are under attack instead.". So maybe your opponent attack queued the peasants first and completely ignored the structures so you'd think that it was for the ongoing skirmish at 12 o'clock. Very clever if that was intentional.
@@CS-ik4vr That's right. Instead of towering rushing. Moonwell rush them. You will desecrate your opponent's sacred land with the amount of hydration levels you'll be reaching, as you build moonwells around his base.
GG! Great game from both sides. Big credit to the UD player for evolving his gameplan so dramatically. Something we are used to seeing Grubby do, but seldom others. It shows of a mastery that to me is more impressive than running the exact same compositional style in all weathers (Happy called out) Not to undermine him, he is fantastic at what he does. It just isn't entertaining to me. Also: Despite manadrain UD got off some neat CS + Nova combos and some really dirty full-backline CSs. If I'm allowed to speak out of my authority, Grubbys microintensive Hero-focused value plays seem much less effective in the Human race, where the lack of APM attributed to his backline forces consistently lost him snowballing potential with his rifle + casters. I'm only critical because I adore Grub, and would love for someone to prove me wrong with "facts and logic" (Forgive my eternally online parlance)
Awesome game as always! Love seeing non-meta play, especially human non meta. I learned how to play wc3 because of you back in the early 2000s! I played orc back then and would use your gruntapult/shaman play style. After a loooong time off and seeing wc3 on sale for $15 I decided to buy it and start playing again for the nostalgia. I'm glad to see you're still playing and sharing the games. I would love to see how you handle NE as Human, specifically DH, Panda, bear/dryad with double staff. It seems I can never win. The DH mana burns your heroes and Panda BOF your casters/rifles. If you focus the heroes (you have to contend with immolation or evasion or Panda's massive hp pool) or bears they tank so much damage just to get staffed out right before death and auto heal at a moon well and charge right back into the fight. It's so hard to reach the dryads without mortars and even if you have morts, its seems like I lack the meat shield to protect them, spell breakers can only tank so well (without godly micro like yourself) so I tech to t3 for knights and my own staff but it seems like I'm spending so much gold on tech and buildings I don't have the units to fight or the gold for scrolls to keep my units alive during the fights. Anyways, gg as always, keep posting please!
It's clear that grubby haven't been playing human hard for monthes and it is very hard to remind yourself onto offrace, but big mistakes have been made. Late 3d expand No upgrades (knights have 1/0 on 32 minutes) Towers were extremely needed, thats basics for HU workers are completely unprotected (like wisps with mines, building a tree or peons while building or by burrows) Heal scrolls mustve been bought every second they were available against swarm/nova/mw It hurt me seeing how deep zeppelins were forgotten. Still pretty good game for grubby, strategic moves and micro was on top for offrace
Super entertaining game. Your opponent was really good in transitioning. Ghouls then destro and then out of a sudden Necro and finally banshees.I think humans are always too stingy to invest at least in 1 guard tower. I would always have 1 guard and 1 mana tower at base and expo. In case of siege it's super important to have a mana tower to prevent DL, Lich or Pitlord nukes to economy and at least 1 guard tower slows a little the ghoul harasses. I think the ghoul harasses cost you a lot. For those workers you could have had a lot of towers. Too late 2nd expo. I'm not sure about those knights without him having fiends and overinvesting in sorcs without preparing already into workshop for the obviously needed destro counter. Finally the main issue was BM with firestrike instead of banish. Firestrike didn't do too much. Some ghouls here and there and some necros. But overall the nuking power against ud heroes was lacking without banish. I think as he primarily went aoe for killing your units. You should have been ahead in hero nukes. But you weren't that much.
love when a Grubby vid pops up, I remember looking at the leaderboards back in the day and seeking 4k.Grubby, been a fan of you and your videos ever since
Wow, this is "how warcraft 3 is supposed to be played". This video is really satisfying I think I might even watch it again later. Both players used/produced almost all of the units for their armies including abomination with plague cloud, and mortars. Seeing a mostly squishy human army all being affected by plague, getting nuked by carrion swarm + frost nova (almost made me want to say undead imbalanced), and split harassing workers with basic units is very satisfying to me and very well played by him. Even saw necromancers + meat wagon combo and both players had all casters at master training, you both really had to hustle to try to win in this game. What was disappointing was I didn't see much dispel magics from the priests to remove skeletons. And getting at least 1 or 2 gryphons for the scout and magic damage to kind of counter what we thought he was going for in the beginning (mass ghouls). He had virtually no anti-air in his army at all, and I understand that going gryphons vs 3 crypt when he could make lots of gargoyles is scary, but I guess it's worth it since they could free hit the meat wagons and necromancers, have very good vision, and can even flank from the back, or can be used to harass workers. I think there are a lot of things I or everyone watching this video or reading this comment can learn from this video. (I have not played warcraft 3 in almost a year, and I almost have never played PVP melee online)
Imagine having a normal minion giving everybody tons of mana like UD has. This game was nice but you again felt the OPness of UD. Look at that AM shell. lvl 3 bolt + thunderclap and its still on DK. Ridiculous.
not human main, so he didnt knew the most optimal outcomes, and actually neither do we. I'm pretty sure that constant ghoul harass would've impacted him way less if he was orc because he would know the best wat possible to counter-attack that
I feel you should have siphoned mana some of those statues instead of heroes in some of those fights. There was a ton a juicy mana on them, very little on heroes. I understand you were trying to keep undead hero nukes down but getting the mana from stats would have enabled you to hero nuke a lot more.
14:14 - 14:16 LOL i misheard that SO HARD i thought you said, "oh that's not my skank." anyways, what channels are popular on your server? and since i was automatically logged into NA am i able to play on other servers? or am i stuck to USEast? or are there no more servers? i'm confused...
oh yeah i remember this build around 1.18-1.120d bnet ladder MK first for early bolt surrounds with footies / fast expo / early hero snipes or unit snipes vs ud then bloodmage and transition into caster/breaker, 2nd expo, then tier 3 paladin mass griffon and flak gyros or anti air tanks+griffs banishing an UD hero with lvl2-3 banish, lvl3 bolt, lvl2-3 holy light = gg ud hero. same with just nuking down their army. i finally caved and bought the game but idk how to switch servers or find any channels if its even possible. idk where to find ladder so i know where i'm at server-wise im guessing US East NA
When you go MK with Storm Bolt and Pala with Holy Light against UD, why not choose Banish instead of Flame Strike? That's the hardest nuke in the game. Makes Coil+Nova look lile child's play.
One day I would love to see Grubby use his DotA skills to use flamestrike/blizzard followed by stormbolt/clap+slow to properly maximize nuke combo damage.
23:03 Now I finally understood why you were struggling more than in your usual HU games. You don’t have Arch Mage’s passive mana talent Brilliance for your Heroes and Mages. 🧙🏻♂️🐴 ⁉️
It said "Forces under attack" instead of "town is under siege". But even if he hits peasants shouldn't it count as town? Or if your tower is attacking it alerts? Something was definitly fishy, since i didnt notice either and had to rewind.
Such a rusty game ... and with my fav HU start :D ... MK just needed a lot more mana ... and I think banish... but who am I to teach the master lol :))) gl next game
Sadly I would play WarCraft III again if and only if the Reforged graphics were unlocked for everyone who owned the older version of the game because I refuse to download 30 extra Gb for nothing. Though with Stormgate coming soon maybe that whole itch is about to get scratched another way.
I'm still so sad WC:Reforged faild that bad. I bet they still made a fortune on it, which pisses me off. Imagine it would have had the quality of D2R...
grubby every time u losing ur just losing to enemy expansion not enemy micro. no one have micro skill like u. if u just be greedy in building expansions like some of ur smart opponent, u would be unstoppable. some of ur smart opponent get that they can't compete with ur micro skill so the only chance that they can beat u is having more eco through expansions.
I always wished my opponents good luck I track because I just thought it was good sportsmanship but I can deff see how it's hypocritical as well because your goal is to make them lose so wishing them luck isn't very sincere. But I more so wished it for injury and stuff like that. Like Goodluck as in I hope everybody dosent get hurt at all

Such a sick move at 5:00
This is the best WC3 video at making me feel like playing it again the most.

no it's cus french people are arrogant and assume an ez pz lmn sqz vic (as they should)

gnarly mortar snipe 23:47
it says forces under attack instead of building under attack on 7:44, he probably did not attack the townhall.
This game should be labeled EPiC!
Being a Nelf player myself there is a serious lack of streamers and youtubers to watch and learn, very happy you're doing this.
That's because you don't need them. You have moon wells
@@CS-ik4vr That's right. Instead of towering rushing. Moonwell rush them. You will desecrate your opponent's sacred land with the amount of hydration levels you'll be reaching, as you build moonwells around his base.
@Grriabear xD
If you want, but NE has towers... that can reposition themselves. Probably better to use those

denying kills is just the funniest thing even after all these years, dreadlord shows up and footies immediately start executing peasants
I always thought gghf figuratively means "let's have a good game and have fun", didn't know it have that ironic history 😂
nobody in the west ever said gg as "let's have a good game", in any game, it's always been "it was a good game"

3:44 UD: Let's fight here
Grubby : Actually, let's fight in your base instead. Follow me!
13:40 that block>slow>surround was orgasmic
Love the indepth metacommentary on the use of gg in relation to game starts! xD
18:55 so subtle. i actually lold
15:34 at the ex there is a priest between the towers and a wood worker walking through him, wtf?
Your opponent was really good at landing big carrion swarm hits on your army in that one.
I literally love the smell of fresh flamestrike in the morning.
Yeah.. needed a few guard towers, use of priest dispel.. but I guess it's easy for us to say it when we're watching the vod, NT grubby well played!
Humans feel so bad without briliance aura. Really felt that lack of mana...
BM should compensate for that. In that game it wasn't enough. BM was just sufficient to give MK some extra mana. Paladin was almost all the time dry.
Imagine having a normal minion giving everybody tons of mana like UD has. This game was nice but you again felt the OPness of UD. Look at that AM shell. lvl 3 bolt + thunderclap and its still on DK. Ridiculous.
Lvl 5 Archmage over Bloodmage all day
Would love to see more tryhard on a more niche strats like Solo Warden, SH Pitlord, Pala Rifle, or Dreadlord opening
I dont even play this game, but Grubby makes watching this very entertaining!
WOOOOO Love the tryhard videos for all races
Saying in the beginning good game is like saying (wishing) good morning.
In fact, it was me playing this game, Ive just let this Grubby guy appear and speak for me to the camera. Keep watching, enjoy...
Thunderclap is such a monster against ghouls. UD kinda miscalculated here.
Cool game! Was there a reason you did not try to get the bottom expansion quicker and fortiy it with towers?
not human main, so he didnt knew the most optimal outcomes, and actually neither do we. I'm pretty sure that constant ghoul harass would've impacted him way less if he was orc because he would know the best wat possible to counter-attack that
Whats the benefit to going two actives on MK if you'll never have the mana for both?
I feel you should have siphoned mana some of those statues instead of heroes in some of those fights. There was a ton a juicy mana on them, very little on heroes. I understand you were trying to keep undead hero nukes down but getting the mana from stats would have enabled you to hero nuke a lot more.
14:14 - 14:16 LOL i misheard that SO HARD
i thought you said, "oh that's not my skank."
anyways, what channels are popular on your server?
and since i was automatically logged into NA
am i able to play on other servers? or am i stuck
to USEast? or are there no more servers? i'm confused...
The notification seems to be interrupted by your first hero’s thunderclap sound. It’s super clear the very first time you mention not hearing it.
Is there ANY good reason why Flame Strike is cancellable after mana is already spent?
what does disease cloud do?
sick, big ups to master, that was the freshest Strat I've seen for UD in a while, great back and worth battles
I’m so happy that you’re doing try hard games as HU
grubby got owned lol
damn absolutely love this game, ggwp
oh yeah i remember this build around 1.18-1.120d bnet ladder
MK first for early bolt surrounds with footies / fast expo / early hero snipes or unit snipes vs ud
then bloodmage and transition into caster/breaker, 2nd expo, then
tier 3 paladin mass griffon and flak gyros or anti air tanks+griffs
banishing an UD hero with lvl2-3 banish, lvl3 bolt, lvl2-3 holy light = gg ud hero.
same with just nuking down their army.
i finally caved and bought the game but idk how to switch servers
or find any channels
if its even possible. idk where to find ladder so i know where i'm at server-wise
im guessing US East NA
what are the popular channels on each server of wc3?
i'm assuming yo're on euro
i finally caved and bought the game today
When you go MK with Storm Bolt and Pala with Holy Light against UD, why not choose Banish instead of Flame Strike? That's the hardest nuke in the game. Makes Coil+Nova look lile child's play.
Mountain King + Paladin + Blood Mage (occasionally interchanging 2nd and 3rd) actually used to be somewhat common, so I wouldn't call it non-meta.
4:45 that was the greediest clap ive ever seen. nasty.
- skinks are nice and fast - Grubby
I love that u do tryhard with other races again
I used to say gg in the beginning, which to me meant, "This should be a good game. We are evenly matched." I would say "GG GL", however.
Epic battle there, human never gives up and undead never dies. What about respec to banish there for some sneaky hero nukes?
You dont get the sound for villagers getting attacked, when you allready fight the enemy. Its a dirty trick for undead players.
Towers.... Your bases cried out for so many towers.
report invoker 15:19
miss the days of wc3tv the programm ^^
nice to bring it back to yt
Teal Dreadlord looks crisp
Name? Or od
so many cool interactions. Without brilliance though, poison is so rough on the priests. Necros pretty good vs non-AM hus :D
One day I would love to see Grubby use his DotA skills to use flamestrike/blizzard followed by stormbolt/clap+slow to properly maximize nuke combo damage.
23:03 Now I finally understood why you were struggling more than in your usual HU games. You don’t have Arch Mage’s passive mana talent Brilliance for your Heroes and Mages. 🧙🏻♂️🐴 ⁉️
this man is so well spoken lol
08:00 it was, not blizzards fault (this time)
Are going to play aoe4 soon?
It was indeed winnable, damn!
Wait? I'm not supposed to use literally, when I literally mean what I say.
When did this new meta come out?
Sick game gg
I heard some Eiffel 65 at @15:52
@18:14 you said no alert, but the alert was @17:53
Grubby, have you done a "666 Undead" challenge?
The Great Undead
Bloodmage LETSGOOOOOO!!! We need to Siphon all MANA!!!
Why do you always refuse to use breakers against UDs who focus on magic damage? 😂
Cool game!
How much different does this game turn out if you have Brilliance aura? GGWP
SHORT?!
great game
You're getting the alerts grubby you're just having a bad game or something with hearing it
GL You'll need it
That UD is gUD.
Bloody Jesus 😱😱🙏🙏
24:50
Not really no alert at all, but very late alert
So it's mORCnday, tORCday, wedNEsday, tHUrsday, frORCday, satORCday, sUNDay?
It said "Forces under attack" instead of "town is under siege".
But even if he hits peasants shouldn't it count as town? Or if your tower is attacking it alerts? Something was definitly fishy, since i didnt notice either and had to rewind.
Town under siege is if building is attacked I think
I blame Blizzard for a lot of things, but sadly the 2 minimap sounds were not one of them.
Such a rusty game ... and with my fav HU start :D ... MK just needed a lot more mana ... and I think banish... but who am I to teach the master lol :))) gl next game
MK BM is so fun to me
gg = I wish you a good game. It was 100% ok to use it on the game start 20 years ago!
Sadly I would play WarCraft III again if and only if the Reforged graphics were unlocked for everyone who owned the older version of the game because I refuse to download 30 extra Gb for nothing. Though with Stormgate coming soon maybe that whole itch is about to get scratched another way.
I'm still so sad WC:Reforged faild that bad. I bet they still made a fortune on it, which pisses me off. Imagine it would have had the quality of D2R...
What a battle gghf
So... Is he gonna tell us more about this orange juice?...
Do Bloodmage & Alchemist!
grubby every time u losing ur just losing to enemy expansion not enemy micro. no one have micro skill like u. if u just be greedy in building expansions like some of ur smart opponent, u would be unstoppable. some of ur smart opponent get that they can't compete with ur micro skill so the only chance that they can beat u is having more eco through expansions.
Im smiling and Im not even 1 min into the vid.. That's why you sub to Grub
I wish he had a keyboard cam

Who is call me master?
