@@ELscid nah, ti8 lgd was also a beast. Their win on game 2 or 3 was totally unexpected, even Ceb/Notail admits that LGD shouldn't have won with that draft but they did. If TI10 LGD has an edge, it's their coach xiao8 and the former Wings members who already won a TI before.
Silent's (Team Spirit coach) speech before game 1 really gives me goosebumps. It's somehow the most cinematic speech without sounding corny or overly dramatic. I think most teams overall have started adopting a much more encouraging environment after finding out how much wonders it worked for OG.
and i think its also people taking Esports more serious, being 100 percent mentally is just as important as being physically 100% in regular sports, the same thing applies to this, same with the mental warfare OG played
Yeah its was a good speech. But I wasnt really impressed though. Obviously, its so easy to say words of encouragement before the actual games start because everyone normally have their spirits up at that point. However, if you are a dire situation, your backs against the wall and your team morale at the lowest point, People that make speeches that can put anyone at ease and get them motivated to get back up and fight are the best one for me.

I don't think the pacing of Game 5 came out weird because of the True Sight team necessarily. When I watched it live I already felt that it was going to be a hard game to make look exciting. Very early on the panelists and analysts already pointed out that the way the draft went the game would be decided by whether Tiny and Lycan would pop off at their 20min timings or not. So the game had basically 3 outcomes, 1. Tiny pops off and instantly ends the game with insane pushing power 2. Tiny does well but not enough to end and the game becomes a bit more dramatic on who is going to win or 3. Spirit completely dodges the timing, Tiny becomes useless and Spirit sort of just wins by default. And 3 is what happened. PSG couldn't find important kills and objectives anywhere on the map.

@@lori977 Well what happened was LGD reached their timings at min 18 and decided to force a tier 2 fight, lost it, and then the game was basically gg at that point. Had they paced off and farmed the map aggressively, they still would have had a solid chance in Mid-late with a big farm advantage.
According to what I know, Yatoro only repeated 2-3 heroes for the entrire TI11, means his picks were so unpredictable. It's like Yatoro running a all-hero challenge hahaha.

Not really. LGD sucked at the draft especially the last match. They know Collapse Magnus will fck them up YET they still got too cocky and gave it to him. That's why they lost. That was such a basic tactic yet they didn't respect Collapse's magnus.
@@duhduh14 Well, perhaps the disrespect is just that they thought they had it beat already, I'm sure they could feel it in-game how helpless he was in game2 vs the rubick. Probably felt like 'sure if he wants to pick magnus again we'll take a free win..." but didn't realize collapse had already reasoned out how to get around it.
Nah, I think it seems that way because OG pretty much picked everything off-meta, completely surprising their opponents in draft (especially Liquid in TI9). PSG.LGD had really good drafts and strats during TI8 and TI8 is definitely their strongest iteration.
I'm not talking about their literal draft, they can draft anything they want. I just liked this format way more than past true sight. BO5, more games, more draft pick screentime. Seeing how both team think and strategize around meta heroes at the time (Magnus, Tiny, Lycan) is intense. About game 5 yeah, i think lgd just fucked up by giving away magnus for tiny-lycan, and for me enchantress last pick is bad, treant could be so much better or just get magnus and imo they will definitely win.
@@MoXy69YT Wait, but all TI True Sights are BO5s. Not all of them went to game 5 obviously, but there wasn't a blowout 3-0 either. The draft also wasn't any faster or longer than previous True Sights. The difference in strategy is basically none as well since OG were the only team who consistently ran off-meta flex drafts.
These guys made me really proud when I was watching after them in Grand Finals. Although I didn't even KNOW about them ANYTHING in the start of all of it. I didn't know that they CAN manage to CRASH everyone especially favourite and strong teams. They were nobodies "WHO NO ONE EXPECTED IN THE FINALS" and seeing them take a spot having that name - makes me tear up how beautiful this is. Myself is russian tho and some of translations were kinda "okay" but aren't really correct - athough they created the vibes correct. SUCH A BEAUTIFUL INTERNATIONAL TRUE SIGHT. Thank you for the reaction, Grub
I always like a team thats relaxed and jokes around before the games start. For me it shows a stronger mental. Its important to be focused and serious, but its also important to relax
I really respect both of these two teams for how humble they are, and how much they respected their opponents. Knowing what Faith_Bian is like, he was definitely using Spirit's voice lines at the start to show respect and play the (online) crowd, it wasn't BM or trying to play mental warfare. Whenever either team needed to hype themselves up, they never said "They're garbage, they don't deserve the championship, we're much better", and they constantly stressed that they shouldn't underestimate each other, and that they're all humans, 'same as us'. Even after eliminating Secret, Yatoro was like "I think Matumbaman is very smart. What did he build on Terrorblade? I need to use that." It was really refreshing for this True Sight and really helps me root for both teams in the future.
Hello Grubby, I've been watching your wc3 replays since I was a teenager, In paralel I was actually playing wc3 DotA, but implementing micro strats from your replays. To this day, I join your streams to watch wc3, but you starting playing and being interested in DotA is like a dream come true! I am very excited for your future with it, hopefully we get to see you in TI finals ^^
1:46:05 Ame looking back at the stage probably thinking when will I lift the Aegis of Champions is really sad because he been a consistent carry for years and close to win it couple of time.
Waited for the Grubby version for this one... I did watch the real thing and it is surprising how in sync their thoughts are on what the other team is going to do...
i remember watching a video about team spirit's practice room during that TI. they were given a room basically a kitchen. and they all went out to win the whole tournament.
It was really great watching xiao8 keep the morale of his team up throughout the series, even down 0-2 faced with defeat he prioritised creating a good playing environment over saying "you will bring shame to our org/country" or anything negative. The mark of a great leader
Its somewhat catharthic (if that's the right word) that True Sight showed that Xiao8 mostly responsible to bring LGD's spirit up and almost pulling a reverse sweep. I remember when Chinese fans were massively flaming him for the game 5 draft for not denying Team Spirit Magnus (Some really hilarious salt tho). There was even somewhat of a controversy in that a rumor spread Xiao8 had bet against the team and purposely threw. This lead to an actual official post from LGD that they were investigating potential matchfixing, which, surprise surprise, no matchfixing was found.
there was no investigation, that was just announced to calm down the community using the PSG.LGD reputation as the face of Dota 2 Chinese Scene. So the matchfixing of Xiao8 can still be possible. I am not talking about the finals, i talk about regular 'first 10 kills' best, 'first blood' etc and his past experience
Kinda sad to be honest that the chinese fans flamed him that hard.The immense pressure from the chinese fans that It's taken a toll on them and no surprise that most of them want to retire(more like a break cuz no one actually retires in this game).
The production team definitely know their stuff, this ti might not have the best story or drama like the previous one but imo they have more entertaining gameplay and drafting strategy. So that's what they mainly focus on compared to the previous true sight where we barely even see the match.
Yeah, this True Sight hits different in a good way. Someone mentioned that TI 7, 8, and 9 are more about the player's mentality, but that's not really a factor in TI 10 where both teams are fairly relaxed the whole way. The shift to gameplay logic and strategy is really great.
@@lyonvensa yeah. I wish they had more of a story for team spirit being super underdogs for the whole tournament, they literally appeared out of nowhere. And how PSG were an unbeatable beast for the whole tournament. But it is still a great watch
@@aynes8099 yeah. We got a taste of TI8 so most people have high expectations of what a good underdog story is. Sadly, this pale in comparison to it. This TI is more draft focused. The team that wins the draft pick wins the game. Mostly stomp the opponent. But hey, TI10 is definitely better than TI9 for sure.
1:05:15 Rubick (XinQ) lifted Spectre (Ame) out of the fountain and Eul'd the Magnus trying to skewer him back to fountain all in split second. What a reflex.
Though the Euls is actually from Y(Undying) not XinQ. And also the cinematics where Rubik cancel the linkens before lifting, it's actually Faith_Bian(Bloodseeker) Rupture that cancels the linkens. I'm just fascinated in he's reflex that's why I watched his perspective. Feels kinda disappointed that it's not all from XinQ, but at least that's a great teamwork.
i think every team should strive to have their own true sight filming crew, doesn't matter if they can't reach final, the fans wants these footage anyway!
Look at Team Spirit's attitude in and out of the game. Whenever they're tilted, they acknowledge how well their opponents' expertise and playstyle while all smiling! Respect
Ame: "I was so farmed in the early game" The emotion that those words carry made me cry, his regret and frustration i can feel them in those words 😢. Still ggs, Team Spirit congrats
You see on 50:57 you didn't really focus on their conversation. It leads to your confusion on 52:16 on how Team Spirit looks lost on how to counter them. Anyway I really like your reaction, and it's really okay to just pause the video for a moment to ask chat about anything related to the vid. Rather than ask then read chat answer while continuing the video, especially on this case where you won't understand a thing unless the english caster is saying something 😂
This International really showed the mental fight just in the drafting phase alone. The past 2 Internationals were just tilting the enemy and playing good. This one has a lot of psychological tactics at play showing Dota 2 is more about analyzing. Great vid as always, though, as a TH-cam frog, seeing the Twitch chat could have made this vid better. Still, keep the vids running.
Ember is so popular because he is basically very EASY to learn but hard to master, the skill ceiling on the hero is very big AND the most important is basically his versatility. He can be a ganker, he can be a magic damage dealer, he can poke, he can be phsyical damage dealer, he can go in and out of fights.
All true sights have been great but I really enjoyed this year because they didn’t make LGD to be the villain in this one. Really gave you the feeling of wanting both teams to win even though you know there can only be one. It’s great seeing a light hearted china and made me appreciate the director (xiao8) even more. The kings stock going up 📈📈
Ns still has better night vision, the main reason is that NS can't Lane against Luna Undying. Luna would be ultra farmed and NS will be turtling under tower or jungle very early. Axe on the other hand could still farm and get fat in Lane.
I literally just closed the tab where I watched TI 10 True Sight and this popped up in my recommendation after that, of course I'll watch it again with you
This entire TI was super weird, i mean team spirit literally evolved with the entire tournament, they really were not strong starting off but they really started gelling and man their awareness was on point. It was crazy how safe yatoro was because he really had a gut feeling for where everyone was. I mean if you ask anyone, spirit was not a team that was on anyone's radar starting off.
As an OG fan, TS was something like OG. OG started from the bottom and started as underdogs to dominating everyone on TI including LGD. But I'm not a fan of TS and I absolutely want LGD to win TI.
@@arvie9242 Unlike OG, TS was basically full of unknowns in the scene. OG had Notail and Ceb who were respected veterans internationally. TS had Miposhka, but even that is limited to his region. The rest were pubstars and nobodies. But they pulled it off. Beating the beast.
This True Sight has hands down the best musical compositions thrown on each scenarios perfectly! My favorite is the engagement at 20:34 like the calm before the storm then the calming rainbows after the disaster. Chef's kiss!
There were so many other cool team spirit storylines that could've been included. A couple big turning points in games, especially in game 5. Yatoros hair cut. The death note. The horrible conditions they were given for group stages. The fact they didn't have internet the first day there to practice...
Personally I'll put this above the OG run on TI8, this storyline is just so memorable above all else man. Team Spirit's cinderella run from almost being eliminated to winning it all to Ame's redemption story for finally tasting the glory after reaching the finals couple of times. Happy to see TS win but at the same time heartbroken to see Ame, xiao8 and PSG.LGD lose again.
Really dude? I guess that your own opinion. If you ask me, it was a good TI but it wasnt as exciting or nerve wracking as TI8. Like this TI, the games are won in the draft alone. Games 1 2 3 and 4 were either LGD stomping TS or TS stomping LGD so it was pretty boring as the games didnt have any nitty gritty back and forths or those impossible comeback wins at all. Game 5 was decent but it was pretty much game over for LGD when when their tiny-Lycan combo failed and they couldnt stop the magnus. Though TI10 is definitely better than TI9 for sure as that was completely one sided. But none of those two or any TIs in the past could ever match TI8. In TI8, you could be outdrafted but still win the game. Games were either close and hard fought with impossible clutch comebacks. TI8 is still the best TI ever. Sorry man.
Great video, nice team. Spirit's temper and playstyle is similar to OG, they are really fun to watch, last Major was fun too. Nice subtitle translation, especially of curse words, gives more emotions and deeper atmosphere of slav dota Sad moment in the end when they say "I'll buy house near Kyiv and Maga will join" and you realise it is 2021 on the video...
I've been a dota player all my life (just recently stopped doing so), but i always watches the pro scene closely up untill now. with that being said, i actually never watched any True Sight movies, not until you do the watch party. Gotta admit that all the True Sight was awesome but watching it with you is what made me stayed through the whole things. It's so nice when u shared ur insights as a fellow competitor from another games (world champion at that) how it feels like in those situations and how u've dealt with them, or how u appreciate the things these guys does and etc. Really loves ur content grubs!
I quit Dota after nearly 14 years because the community was too toxic and it really got to me. Watching Grubby with his positive attitude, getting coached by our childhood heroes and his experience as a proplayer himself really wants me to play again. Really makes me smile often watching his stream
Well don't rush in the game too much. maybe play some turbo games (double exp and gold match) so you don't get a sour taste in your mouth if you get a toxic teammate since the games goes fast.
Dota is still very very toxic.. Grubby has a very positive and realistic mindset, it's teaching most dota enjoyers to deal with toxic behaviour/gameplay much better than before.
As someone who often plays with friends on discord, one solution to the toxicity (which is common mostly when you play with randoms, and is normal in mobas) is to play together with people you're comfortable with, as long as you all do it for fun. Game becomes so. Much. Better. Even if you lose.
I really hope you could've seem Team Secret run. They won everything but the TI during the pandemics, it was really heartbreaking their lost at loser finals. You should check it someday, definitely worth it.
It's really sad how Ame looked. Watching him cry on the inside makes you emotional. He's been in finals on TI for a lot of times but still haven't won.
Thanks Grubby it's great to see an outsider perspective. Makes casting these games and being part of the community worth while... as a community caster you don't really get to feel your audience but with you here it's a totally different perspective. Loving all of it.
Just found you Grubby , and honestly one of my favourite personalities on YT , i love the positivity , the takes you have and just general content . Also watching you dive into Dota , a game ive played for almost 8 years is just amazing , its reigniting my passion and love for it .
what i really like about this True Sight is the drafting stage seeing both team predict what's the other team prolly gonna pick so they ban it really some high level sht
Just want to share how much I love your content. I was waiting for the true sight for a long time, but after it comes, I waited for your video of wathing it, thanks for the dota content! Cheers from Ukraine!
1:33:37 I know what you're referencing here, but it was more like "I will play like that guy from the other game, because it worked" instead of "you should play like that guy who is destroying us right now". He said it himself while Kuro told his teammate to play like Ceb, which could be a huge punch in the gut
genuinely one of the best things about this final was having Ceb and N0tail, as well as Aui2000 (who won TI5), on the draft panel, glad some of their insights made it into true sight this time around as well
In world was problem to wear masks vs covid, so nice to watch this True Sight, watching how it was peace between Russia and Ukraine, how Yatoro was discussing with Mira that Collapse would come and visit them in Kiev. So sad that politic can ruine everything. It brought hate in our hearts. Now Ukraine in ruins, and russian people are suffering because sanctions and a lot of hate. And now usual russian people should go to that stupid war. It is very very sad. I hope everything someday will be okay...
Russian here. I wouldn't say that we suffer much. Hate? Dude, there were always hate to us from West, it was not there only after fall of USSR which when Russia had to pay all debts of USSR (yes, only Russia, others countries, such as Ukraine, were free from debts). It was hard time and yes, our country was weak during that, west was so happy ahaha. They even still praise Gorbachev, this man who is responsible for this chaos. With situation in Ukraine, this is not that easy that you think. Yes, war is bad, but in this conflict it is not like there are "bad" and "good" parties to the conflict.
There should be clips floating around with the full NoTail and Ceb's casting commentary, those are also really interesting to watch on their own because they ended up correctly predicting half of the picks in real time.
1:30:10 They picked sky into bane and not snap not cuz of fiends grip but cuz brain sap, they wanted to win lane and Snapfire does not have enough damage to out trade brainsap. Only supports with infinite damage or kill potential can handle bane in lane, so you can either lose the lane or pick something like Undying or Sky.
I think you should watch the new True Sight Insights series. Some really interesting stats in them that shed a bit more light on some moves by OG, LGD, and Liquid.
For the analists they got 3 TI champions, aui(a support that carried eg to the finals and then got kicked off the team right after winning it), and the og boys
@@hentacletentai2160 TF2 models and Dota 2 models are completely different tho, they made TF2 models so it would work in sfm cuz they were doing meet the team videos, they would have to remake most of Dota 2 models for it
As good as always but they made a editing mistake in Game2 part. They put a shot from the game3 and put it in game2 in the very start. Btw are you gonna make watch party stream for TI?
There’s A LOT of layers to this TI right, and rightfully so as it’s the 10 yr anniversary after all. -Team Spirit, an Eastern European team, won it all. Na’Vi was the first team to ever win a TI and they’re an Eastern European team. -No one expected Team Spirit to be in the finals, the same way no one expected TI8 winners OG to go all the way in 2018. Classic underdog story. -Team Spirit did their damage in the lower bracket, kinda like how TI7 winners Team Liquid did it in 2017. -it was a bo5 that went the distance, with both teams evenly matched in terms of skills, brains, teamwork, etc. -of course, no TI Finals is ever as grand without a powerhouse Chinese team battling it out for the Aegis right? As mentioned in Free To Play docu Dota is to China like SC is to S.Korea I’m sure there’s some more I missed. It was storybook bro.
58:58 I mean, I'm pretty sure that 90% of Dota players don't even know how deep the Dota lore is, and even if the anime follows it, some people would probably not recognize the characters. Though it's true it'll be great to have the action scenes like this, they WILL have to touch some 'boring normal people' story. But then again, we know the internet loves to hate ANYTHING that's have a pixel of 'anime like art' because they want to be cool.
I love watching how they draft in True Sight. It's like a chess, how they discussing their game plan. It's amazing how both teams were thinking almost the same thing.
Like how they can be so close yet appeared to be so different at the time before the tournament.

SUCH A BEAUTIFUL INTERNATIONAL TRUE SIGHT. Thank you for the reaction, Grub
Ame = The Uncrowned King
Uncrowned king makes no sense.
No crown = not king.
@@jennicaanne9394 that's why they are called uncrowned king cuz they are the best but dont have an official crown/rank
@@kite3322 best? There is no proof to support this.
@ianlemuelsoledad4633 lol it doesn't. If he doesn't have crown, he ain't king period.
@@doublebigwithdoublemac2200 u can search the meaning of uncrowned king lmao so bad
I always like a team thats relaxed and jokes around before the games start. For me it shows a stronger mental. Its important to be focused and serious, but its also important to relax
"winning a second TI, yarik." and that's exactly what happened.
Happy to see your reaction to this truesight! Good luck Grubby!
Thanks!
I really respect both of these two teams for how humble they are, and how much they respected their opponents. Knowing what Faith_Bian is like, he was definitely using Spirit's voice lines at the start to show respect and play the (online) crowd, it wasn't BM or trying to play mental warfare. Whenever either team needed to hype themselves up, they never said "They're garbage, they don't deserve the championship, we're much better", and they constantly stressed that they shouldn't underestimate each other, and that they're all humans, 'same as us'. Even after eliminating Secret, Yatoro was like "I think Matumbaman is very smart. What did he build on Terrorblade? I need to use that." It was really refreshing for this True Sight and really helps me root for both teams in the future.
Hello Grubby, I've been watching your wc3 replays since I was a teenager, In paralel I was actually playing wc3 DotA, but implementing micro strats from your replays. To this day, I join your streams to watch wc3, but you starting playing and being interested in DotA is like a dream come true! I am very excited for your future with it, hopefully we get to see you in TI finals ^^
That's awesome!
God I still remember last year's matches...
It was so epic moments...
Now it was TI10 was more epic
The sportsmanship shown by PSG really stuck out to me as a Hallmark of great character. Such a great series
1:46:05 Ame looking back at the stage probably thinking when will I lift the Aegis of Champions is really sad because he been a consistent carry for years and close to win it couple of time.
Waited for the Grubby version for this one... I did watch the real thing and it is surprising how in sync their thoughts are on what the other team is going to do...
i remember watching a video about team spirit's practice room during that TI. they were given a room basically a kitchen. and they all went out to win the whole tournament.
It was really great watching xiao8 keep the morale of his team up throughout the series, even down 0-2 faced with defeat he prioritised creating a good playing environment over saying "you will bring shame to our org/country" or anything negative.
The mark of a great leader
Its somewhat catharthic (if that's the right word) that True Sight showed that Xiao8 mostly responsible to bring LGD's spirit up and almost pulling a reverse sweep. I remember when Chinese fans were massively flaming him for the game 5 draft for not denying Team Spirit Magnus (Some really hilarious salt tho).
There was even somewhat of a controversy in that a rumor spread Xiao8 had bet against the team and purposely threw. This lead to an actual official post from LGD that they were investigating potential matchfixing, which, surprise surprise, no matchfixing was found.
there was no investigation, that was just announced to calm down the community using the PSG.LGD reputation as the face of Dota 2 Chinese Scene. So the matchfixing of Xiao8 can still be possible. I am not talking about the finals, i talk about regular 'first 10 kills' best, 'first blood' etc and his past experience
Kinda sad to be honest that the chinese fans flamed him that hard.The immense pressure from the chinese fans that It's taken a toll on them and no surprise that most of them want to retire(more like a break cuz no one actually retires in this game).
Nahhh this guy is selling the exact narrative he wants to believe😂😂
But the fact that all members aggreed not to ban mag og game 5
After this truesight, Chinese fans expressed their apologies to Xiao8. I feel happy knowing this.
You crying Grubby tells me you have a genuine heart and a good soul. I wish you nothing but more success.
The production team definitely know their stuff, this ti might not have the best story or drama like the previous one but imo they have more entertaining gameplay and drafting strategy. So that's what they mainly focus on compared to the previous true sight where we barely even see the match.
Yeah, this True Sight hits different in a good way. Someone mentioned that TI 7, 8, and 9 are more about the player's mentality, but that's not really a factor in TI 10 where both teams are fairly relaxed the whole way. The shift to gameplay logic and strategy is really great.
@@lyonvensa yeah. I wish they had more of a story for team spirit being super underdogs for the whole tournament, they literally appeared out of nowhere. And how PSG were an unbeatable beast for the whole tournament. But it is still a great watch
@@aynes8099 yeah. We got a taste of TI8 so most people have high expectations of what a good underdog story is. Sadly, this pale in comparison to it. This TI is more draft focused. The team that wins the draft pick wins the game. Mostly stomp the opponent.
But hey, TI10 is definitely better than TI9 for sure.
Ojalá y este año le callen la boca a amar y a yatoro muy soberbios en las rank públicas
1:05:15 Rubick (XinQ) lifted Spectre (Ame) out of the fountain and Eul'd the Magnus trying to skewer him back to fountain all in split second. What a reflex.
What if he actually has really bad reflexes, and washing your face is just that powerful.
@@zacharyalan4977 Then he should thank Xiao8. They almost fought.
and skewered invoker from inside the fountain
Though the Euls is actually from Y(Undying) not XinQ. And also the cinematics where Rubik cancel the linkens before lifting, it's actually Faith_Bian(Bloodseeker) Rupture that cancels the linkens.
I'm just fascinated in he's reflex that's why I watched his perspective.
Feels kinda disappointed that it's not all from XinQ, but at least that's a great teamwork.
i think every team should strive to have their own true sight filming crew, doesn't matter if they can't reach final, the fans wants these footage anyway!
Great idea
Team Spirit did actually! They did vlogs and you can find them on youtube
Look at Team Spirit's attitude in and out of the game. Whenever they're tilted, they acknowledge how well their opponents' expertise and playstyle while all smiling! Respect
From plumber to doctor to astronaut didn't know that Johhny Sins is also a TI champion.
Ame: "I was so farmed in the early game"
The emotion that those words carry made me cry, his regret and frustration i can feel them in those words 😢.
Still ggs, Team Spirit congrats
For the first time since I have been watching TI I want to LGD to win this year's TI.
Did you just yawn writing that?! Go wash your face, it makes me uncomfortable. Do it now
@@DaDonnoro yeah probably did I wrote to before LGD lmao.
You see on 50:57 you didn't really focus on their conversation. It leads to your confusion on 52:16 on how Team Spirit looks lost on how to counter them.
Anyway I really like your reaction, and it's really okay to just pause the video for a moment to ask chat about anything related to the vid. Rather than ask then read chat answer while continuing the video, especially on this case where you won't understand a thing unless the english caster is saying something 😂
This International really showed the mental fight just in the drafting phase alone. The past 2 Internationals were just tilting the enemy and playing good. This one has a lot of psychological tactics at play showing Dota 2 is more about analyzing.
Great vid as always, though, as a TH-cam frog, seeing the Twitch chat could have made this vid better. Still, keep the vids running.
Ember is so popular because he is basically very EASY to learn but hard to master, the skill ceiling on the hero is very big AND the most important is basically his versatility. He can be a ganker, he can be a magic damage dealer, he can poke, he can be phsyical damage dealer, he can go in and out of fights.
All true sights have been great but I really enjoyed this year because they didn’t make LGD to be the villain in this one. Really gave you the feeling of wanting both teams to win even though you know there can only be one. It’s great seeing a light hearted china and made me appreciate the director (xiao8) even more. The kings stock going up 📈📈
1:15:40 NS isnt good against Luna, cuz NS turn day into Night, Luna's passive increase night vission.
Ns still has better night vision, the main reason is that NS can't Lane against Luna Undying. Luna would be ultra farmed and NS will be turtling under tower or jungle very early. Axe on the other hand could still farm and get fat in Lane.
It really is a blessing that you came into the Dota2 scene!
I literally just closed the tab where I watched TI 10 True Sight and this popped up in my recommendation after that, of course I'll watch it again with you
This entire TI was super weird, i mean team spirit literally evolved with the entire tournament, they really were not strong starting off but they really started gelling and man their awareness was on point. It was crazy how safe yatoro was because he really had a gut feeling for where everyone was. I mean if you ask anyone, spirit was not a team that was on anyone's radar starting off.
As an OG fan, TS was something like OG. OG started from the bottom and started as underdogs to dominating everyone on TI including LGD. But I'm not a fan of TS and I absolutely want LGD to win TI.
@@arvie9242 Unlike OG, TS was basically full of unknowns in the scene. OG had Notail and Ceb who were respected veterans internationally. TS had Miposhka, but even that is limited to his region. The rest were pubstars and nobodies. But they pulled it off. Beating the beast.
Yatoro yoinking aegis from Miposhka always makes me laugh mann never gets old
This True Sight has hands down the best musical compositions thrown on each scenarios perfectly! My favorite is the engagement at 20:34 like the calm before the storm then the calming rainbows after the disaster. Chef's kiss!
1:49:16 Mira planning to buy a mansion near Kyiv.. feelsbadman
There were so many other cool team spirit storylines that could've been included. A couple big turning points in games, especially in game 5. Yatoros hair cut. The death note. The horrible conditions they were given for group stages. The fact they didn't have internet the first day there to practice...
Personally I'll put this above the OG run on TI8, this storyline is just so memorable above all else man. Team Spirit's cinderella run from almost being eliminated to winning it all to Ame's redemption story for finally tasting the glory after reaching the finals couple of times. Happy to see TS win but at the same time heartbroken to see Ame, xiao8 and PSG.LGD lose again.
Really dude? I guess that your own opinion. If you ask me, it was a good TI but it wasnt as exciting or nerve wracking as TI8. Like this TI, the games are won in the draft alone. Games 1 2 3 and 4 were either LGD stomping TS or TS stomping LGD so it was pretty boring as the games didnt have any nitty gritty back and forths or those impossible comeback wins at all. Game 5 was decent but it was pretty much game over for LGD when when their tiny-Lycan combo failed and they couldnt stop the magnus. Though TI10 is definitely better than TI9 for sure as that was completely one sided.
But none of those two or any TIs in the past could ever match TI8.
In TI8, you could be outdrafted but still win the game. Games were either close and hard fought with impossible clutch comebacks.
TI8 is still the best TI ever. Sorry man.
El Ti de OG VS LGD la mejor final
This year's animations were even better than the previous one!
this is probably my favorite "True Sight" ... it was more focused on the Draft the heart of Dota IMHO
Bro, Grubby you should really watch the "TI 2021 introduction". They made the Cinematic/SFM of all of the best play of the game in all previous TI
link pls
17:31 Grubby asking the real questions
"A snail goes into a bar" was a common russian meme in TikTok those days.
Great video, nice team. Spirit's temper and playstyle is similar to OG, they are really fun to watch, last Major was fun too. Nice subtitle translation, especially of curse words, gives more emotions and deeper atmosphere of slav dota
Sad moment in the end when they say "I'll buy house near Kyiv and Maga will join" and you realise it is 2021 on the video...
I've been a dota player all my life (just recently stopped doing so), but i always watches the pro scene closely up untill now.
with that being said, i actually never watched any True Sight movies, not until you do the watch party. Gotta admit that all the True Sight was awesome but watching it with you is what made me stayed through the whole things. It's so nice when u shared ur insights as a fellow competitor from another games (world champion at that) how it feels like in those situations and how u've dealt with them, or how u appreciate the things these guys does and etc.
Really loves ur content grubs!
I quit Dota after nearly 14 years because the community was too toxic and it really got to me. Watching Grubby with his positive attitude, getting coached by our childhood heroes and his experience as a proplayer himself really wants me to play again. Really makes me smile often watching his stream
Well don't rush in the game too much. maybe play some turbo games (double exp and gold match) so you don't get a sour taste in your mouth if you get a toxic teammate since the games goes fast.
Dota is still very very toxic..
Grubby has a very positive and realistic mindset, it's teaching most dota enjoyers to deal with toxic behaviour/gameplay much better than before.
As someone who often plays with friends on discord, one solution to the toxicity (which is common mostly when you play with randoms, and is normal in mobas) is to play together with people you're comfortable with, as long as you all do it for fun. Game becomes so. Much. Better. Even if you lose.
" the community was too toxic"
kek
It is as toxic as you want it to be.
Too many people are overly sensitive, these days.
It's still super toxic, play with friends who want to have fun and dont take things too seriously then you'll be cool
I really hope you could've seem Team Secret run. They won everything but the TI during the pandemics, it was really heartbreaking their lost at loser finals. You should check it someday, definitely worth it.
Names with the subtitles would have been super helpful, I'm surprised they didn't include them. I had no idea who was talking 90% of the time
It's really sad how Ame looked. Watching him cry on the inside makes you emotional. He's been in finals on TI for a lot of times but still haven't won.
Thanks Grubby it's great to see an outsider perspective. Makes casting these games and being part of the community worth while... as a community caster you don't really get to feel your audience but with you here it's a totally different perspective. Loving all of it.
Just found you Grubby , and honestly one of my favourite personalities on YT , i love the positivity , the takes you have and just general content . Also watching you dive into Dota , a game ive played for almost 8 years is just amazing , its reigniting my passion and love for it .
Ame the uncrowned king
Amazingly well done videos, these TI True sights. 👏
1:05 ikr? I felt so much respect for collapse after seen his reaction to the rubik
what i really like about this True Sight is the drafting stage seeing both team predict what's the other team prolly gonna pick so they ban it
really some high level sht
Just want to share how much I love your content. I was waiting for the true sight for a long time, but after it comes, I waited for your video of wathing it, thanks for the dota content! Cheers from Ukraine!
Wow, thank you!
How they showed the intensity of the last Draft. Damn good stuff. Love it and its soo lovely how empathic Grubby is! Pls never Change
1:33:37 I know what you're referencing here, but it was more like "I will play like that guy from the other game, because it worked" instead of "you should play like that guy who is destroying us right now". He said it himself while Kuro told his teammate to play like Ceb, which could be a huge punch in the gut
Friendship end with TI8 true sight.
TI10 is my best buddy now.
Like friendship of Fly and Notail on ti8? Damn
Awful taste
@@Nerathim og fan mad
@@ksjsjhss3475 more like "real TI with crowd fan"
@@Nerathim dude likes the TRUE SIGHT. Nobody cares if you like TI with crowd? You can edit all the crowd in ti8 true sight then and watch it everyday
So excited for you to experience your first TI this year! Lets watch it together!
i feel sad for only ame. he truly deserves TI. he is the best pos1 player i have ever seen
We all know Yatoro was the better carry in TI10
how can he be the best pos 1. his team picks around him and when it matters he fails to carry
genuinely one of the best things about this final was having Ceb and N0tail, as well as Aui2000 (who won TI5), on the draft panel, glad some of their insights made it into true sight this time around as well
In world was problem to wear masks vs covid, so nice to watch this True Sight, watching how it was peace between Russia and Ukraine, how Yatoro was discussing with Mira that Collapse would come and visit them in Kiev.
So sad that politic can ruine everything. It brought hate in our hearts. Now Ukraine in ruins, and russian people are suffering because sanctions and a lot of hate. And now usual russian people should go to that stupid war. It is very very sad.
I hope everything someday will be okay...
Russian here. I wouldn't say that we suffer much. Hate? Dude, there were always hate to us from West, it was not there only after fall of USSR which when Russia had to pay all debts of USSR (yes, only Russia, others countries, such as Ukraine, were free from debts). It was hard time and yes, our country was weak during that, west was so happy ahaha. They even still praise Gorbachev, this man who is responsible for this chaos. With situation in Ukraine, this is not that easy that you think. Yes, war is bad, but in this conflict it is not like there are "bad" and "good" parties to the conflict.
@@goldenhime8404 anyway nothing good that war brings to anyone.
This true sight show how the draft is important
Amazing how inside of each other's heads they were. Dota's skill ceiling keeps getting higher with each TI. Can't wait to watch TI with you Grubby!
I kept checking your channel if you have uploaded your reactions to this.
They made the last cinematic look so.. dramatic, thats amazing
LGD were too hyped about the Lycan Tiny combo that they didn't hear their teammate talking about Rubick, that's why they lost.
Love how grubby tries to speak russian, so cute
There should be clips floating around with the full NoTail and Ceb's casting commentary, those are also really interesting to watch on their own because they ended up correctly predicting half of the picks in real time.
1:30:10 They picked sky into bane and not snap not cuz of fiends grip but cuz brain sap, they wanted to win lane and Snapfire does not have enough damage to out trade brainsap. Only supports with infinite damage or kill potential can handle bane in lane, so you can either lose the lane or pick something like Undying or Sky.
TS banned Snap just before
@@gztrbnst I know, I'm talking about the talk that PSG.LGD had whenever to pick snap or sky.
Super well made those true sights!
Also I love the long and detailed drafting. I always feel it determines like 3/4 of the game outcome
XinQ didn't wash his face that's why they lost
Whenever i see any of teams oyt there winning TI, a few tears drop from my eyes just because I realize how much effort was put to do it
I think you should watch the new True Sight Insights series. Some really interesting stats in them that shed a bit more light on some moves by OG, LGD, and Liquid.
for me the most memorable moment in this is Xiao8 speech after getting 0-2, he brought faith and energy to his players when all seeemed lost
gigachad
For the analists they got 3 TI champions, aui(a support that carried eg to the finals and then got kicked off the team right after winning it), and the og boys
i had so much fun watching this with you grubby ! :D
Glad you enjoyed!
58:50 so you want a show with only action scenes in it? Cuz dialogues wouldnt work on sfm bro
You never seen the canceled tf2 show?
Sure why not
@@hentacletentai2160 TF2 models and Dota 2 models are completely different tho, they made TF2 models so it would work in sfm cuz they were doing meet the team videos, they would have to remake most of Dota 2 models for it
41:32 sigma grubby
As good as always but they made a editing mistake in Game2 part. They put a shot from the game3 and put it in game2 in the very start. Btw are you gonna make watch party stream for TI?
Its poetic that the 5th game was played with both team with their best draft
52:18 coz they didnt see in their papers the Undying+Rubick pick
props to silent. never knew him as a team leader. been watching dota since 2011.
There’s A LOT of layers to this TI right, and rightfully so as it’s the 10 yr anniversary after all.
-Team Spirit, an Eastern European team, won it all. Na’Vi was the first team to ever win a TI and they’re an Eastern European team.
-No one expected Team Spirit to be in the finals, the same way no one expected TI8 winners OG to go all the way in 2018. Classic underdog story.
-Team Spirit did their damage in the lower bracket, kinda like how TI7 winners Team Liquid did it in 2017.
-it was a bo5 that went the distance, with both teams evenly matched in terms of skills, brains, teamwork, etc.
-of course, no TI Finals is ever as grand without a powerhouse Chinese team battling it out for the Aegis right? As mentioned in Free To Play docu Dota is to China like SC is to S.Korea
I’m sure there’s some more I missed. It was storybook bro.
The cinematic animations on this one are just polished damnn
58:58
I mean, I'm pretty sure that 90% of Dota players don't even know how deep the Dota lore is, and even if the anime follows it, some people would probably not recognize the characters. Though it's true it'll be great to have the action scenes like this, they WILL have to touch some 'boring normal people' story.
But then again, we know the internet loves to hate ANYTHING that's have a pixel of 'anime like art' because they want to be cool.
37 Minutes into Lord of the Rings. We have just left the Shire! Comedy god Grubby on point as always
Grand finals was held on my birthday, what a gift it was
"back in my day" - Hey, I think at the moment, it's another day for you, just in a different way
