Can OG Do It AGAIN?! - Grubby Reacts To TRUE SIGHT 2019! 

Watching Grubby Dota 2's journey is really blessing for Dota community. Please Valve dont let this man go.

Topson change from TI8 to TI9 is massive. U can see the confidence in his bearing and his playstyle.

sometimes i think about how fun valve makes dota and then i think about how blizzard handled sc2 and i cry a little bit.

Roro - the woman in their team is a psychologist, she used to work with CS:GO Astralis team as well. She usually helps them to control their emotions and overcome bad habits like getting mad or tilted.

Glad you finally got into Dota mate. These 2 ti's were so damn epic and massive kudos for the producers of True Sight. They trully did an oustanding job P.S. you should also check both teams reacting to this True SIght togheter. Very good vibes and very wholesome

I love the ingame cinematics they do for these

since Liquid is portrayed rather badly for the sake of the storyline, two things to keep in mind: a) apart from w33, this team was (and still is) the team that has played together the longest. they love and trust each other so much. b) they already came from a very stressful lower bracket finals before these games. they did a lower bracket run and therefor played way more games than OG. plus OG looked super dominant that TI. so they came into the finals being exhausted and stressed and have to face a super strong opponent. just adding that to cut Liquid some slack and give some perspective

Ti9 Io was revered as the hidden carry gem that only OG was able to utilize to its Max. They were able to destroy top-tier carry-mid picks at the time. If i remember correctly when they first showcased the IO carry, teams were legit scared of it, that IO was only been picked by OG 6 times (correct me if im wrong) after it. And they went 6-0 afterwards. OG got a decently wide pool with meta defying drafts. They can also play heroes in different roles like their pugna (2, 4, or 3). Like team Liquid, teams were really confused, that eventually led to their loss.

Finally I've been waiting for this for so long thanks grubby

Ceb and Jerax were the undeniable mvps of Ti8. For Ti9, without a shadow of a doubt it was Topson. He made liquid his bitch

43:30 I think they were one of the few teams that had a sports psychologist on their team. The same as Astralis. And I truly think it made a huge difference, because they are by far, the best team to come back into the game. It's also the person you asked about here: 1:16:00

This is where Flopson become Godson. Man is a beast. Oh also ana, the man who buffed fountain. Lmao What a monster duo.

Grubby, you should probably watch a DOTA short called "The International Archives - The Buyback". It happend in TI by Ana which maybe one of the most underrated plays in that tournament.

Now watch ti7 true sight for context between old liquid and og

These videos are edited excellently. 👌

I really liked how this showed the difference in team mentalities. For Liquid they had Kuro that took all decisions and carried all the burden of decisions, while for OG they simply trusted each other and went with anyone's decision. It was the same in TI8... someone makes a call and they're all like Ok bro we got your back. Just go for it

Would love to see Grubby as a coach for a team some day. While he lacks some Dota knowledge (yet), he understands how important little nuances of what team members say and how they act with each other are. Both teams in this final had awesome players but Ceb was a way better coach than Kuro in this case. That won them the series imo.

The IO carry was a low MMR start.Ana came up with it in 3k pub games with his friends.Then he brought it to TI.

You should watch OG's sponsor's (Red Bull) documentary about them. It's titled 'Against The Odds' Incredible inside story about the players and their journey from zeroes to heroes!

I found you from reddit, and I must say: you are probably one of the best things happening to this community. Keep up the good work mate.

It's really weird I kept watching you even after I left Wc3 for dota and somehow now you're playing dota so much

It's funny how much of a "respect" front Ceb puts up for the documentary, given how toxic he is in every other communication inside and outside the game 😄

I really love Grubby’s insight on both of the teams’ dialogues. Feels like learning how to be a better leader.

This new OG is definitely strong but we can’t be sure. TI has a history of strong teams throughout the year and falling short on the big stage. The first iteration of OG with Miracle failed to win in TI after dominating the majors before TI. We can only watch.

Just wanted to clarify that OGs draft in the last game was completly wicked. They were the only team that could play IO as a carry and they basically invented the strategy in the tournament so no team had time to figure out a counter. They completely reversed the roles, Gyro the typical hardcarry was midlane to create space for the IO who is typically a support to the Gyro

i still cant believe the level of change, in terms of looks and attitude, between TI8 Topson and TI9 Topson

I laughed so hard at grub's example: "it's like ohh I broke my leg... Great... I like pain" xD

"I'm not playing finals without my chat wheel" omg love it

Man, Ceb is such a good leader for their team. I don't think they have anything close to this success without his iron mental and always knowing what to say to shore up his team's mental.

Kuro is deffinetly a Hall of Famer in Dota. After all these years him saying "You trusted me but I failed you" as a leader of the team is actually so strong and tells a lot when you think about it.

Now watch Ti7, two of the most gifted and brilliant players at their best, Miracle and Gh. Wizards!

OG has such an awesome story. N0tail and fly were best friends and long time teammates on that team, but fly left and joined EG since OG wasnt winning. OG banded up this group together almost last minute with crazy talent out of no where in topson and ana, and with mastermind ceb they ended up beating EG and fly. N0tails death stare after the game became an iconic meme, and now OG is the first 2 time TI winners in spectacular fashion

Ti7 Truesight so you can get the Context between these 2 teams

Truesight is incredible from Valve, I literally had no idea Ceb is such a good mentor. I mean I get hyped up to play every time I watch his speeches to Og. I really wanna see how Xiao8 coaches his team,

Great content, happy to rewatch True Sight alongside Grubby and even happier he is playing Dota 2 now! Really hope Valve gets him involved somehow at TI

Your Dota2 content is so good! The way you tackle this game as a 'noob' with your professional eye, competitive mindset and refreshing spirit is a treat for all of us.

Yeah a complete OG arc Ti8 the underdog Ti9 the villain 😂🤣😂🤣

I love kuro, for always saying " thank HIM okay" .

these 2 True Sight you streamed are so entertaining to watch. You just started Dota but you're no stranger to ESport competition which makes your input throughout the video so insightful and relatable. I can't wait for the TI10 True Sight so I can watch it myself, then watch Team Spirit react to it, then watch you react to it lmao

I hope valve will really invite u to COME to Singapore to enjoy TI. Last time I saw u I believe was WCG in the 2000s

Someone pointed this before but in 1:11:55, Ceb says " they will chase". Jerax then says "there's no chase" to which Ceb replies "Yes, they're desperate". It just shows both Ceb and Jerax mental awareness of the game. Ceb knew Liquid was desperate, and they will try to chase out of desperation to salvage the game. Which Liquid did do. Meanwhile Jerax knows its over. Even if they chase, they will lose. Which also came true.

I wish that Grubby watched TI7 True Sight before this so he'd have a better insight on how this Team Liquid works. Kuroky basically is like a father to the 4 guys of the team (who can be mischievous players), with their manager Mo like the mother lol. Kuro had to carry the team at a mental and emotional standpoint, so it's not surprising that he got tilted after game 1. I feel that Liquid misses Matu on situations like this. He's one less emotional guy for Kuro to check on. TI8 is Ana's redemption after being viewed as an underperformer before TI, while TI9 is where Topson really popped off. OG is a whole lot better in TI9 than they were at TI8.

ti9 OG feels different compared to ti8 OG. ti8 OG is the protagonist, while ti9 OG is the final boss

Watched both True Sight it was released and saw finals online on two TIs. Og is a legendary team. Played old dota and dota 2 I can say dota 2 improves the game.

I dont now why, but I just dont like OG. Mybe because everybody likes them and thinks they r goods or something, but I think they r overrated! Yes I now they win 2 TIs but still ... I''m not fan of them like EVERYBODY ELSE! now Kill me because of this comment LOL.

Focusing on the positives is so key. There are studies, notably with tennis players practicing serving. Split into two groups - one group was coached on only what they were doing wrong and the group coached on what they were doing well. The positive focus group improved more by an overwhelming amount.

Been watching your WC3 games and watched your tournament games too. And now you're also playing and DotA 2, the only game I've given like 2/3 of my life (I'm 27 yrs old and haven't played DotA for like 5yrs but I still follow anything about DotA 2). I hope you continue and enjoy your DotA 2 journey. P.S. Valve should take care of Grubby or else, I will wish that every toilet in Valves' office gets clogged and floods the bathroom.

I mean, this is by far on of the worst team comms (liquid comm) that was ever shown in this kind of movies. In pure skill W33ha imo is already the weakest player among both teams, yet his teammates still doubting him (you sure about ta, forced meepo pick instead of ta), blaming him (death on mid in the first game, kuro says like "i told you" and stuff) and jinxing him in every way possible. It just feels awful to see this kind of "trust".

22:20 I've always felt Kuroky is not a good captain. It might be stress, but you don't tell you team mate to "play like Ceb" as you will see later on. That's so hurting and flat out disrespectful.

Watching this TI final's true sight is really hard for me man. Back then, those 2 teams were my favorite, seeing them fighting in the grand final is both a joy and uncomfortable feeling. Your reaction and thoughts however is more interesting than the true sight lmao, have just discovered you just like you've discovered dota :))

Grubby is so happy, he instantly smiles 1:03:36

He should watch Free to Play (TI 1) to see where Dota 2 began.

Grubby did you react true sight :The Kiev Major Grand Finals old OG vs Vitus Pro ?

What a time to get into DOTA. The magical month of DOTA Esports starts. True Sight dropping soon, Ti just around the corner, the time of the year when the dota players are actually happy. Feels Good Man.

30 is very old for pro dota 2 tournament, even if you are 60 you can hit immortal rank in DotA 2 without a doubt because I know some old people who do but on the top of the game, you just can't, game burns you very hard, every win and loss counts and losses count really harder.

Liquid was a top team then, but kurro rly didnt believe that he could beat OG and his mentality transferred to the team, not to mention ANNAGOD was an effin meta breaker with that IO carry... Liquid rly came in as favourites into this match, they had the most amazing tournament, but Ceb is a freaking mental monster, EPIC FINAL!!!

The fucking AdmiralBulldog flame at the very end

React to TI7 true sight please grubby.

20:58 Exactly what I was thinking. Ceb went on to tell the staff on their smoke break that he made a small mistake, which I think he was referring to that buyback but they were the ones who told Ana not to do so. He already informed the team earlier that he wanted to buyback so he can help with the base defense.

This TI broke MC man, as an offlaner main he was one of the most exciting player to watch but after this tour, every magic he used to have was gone.

You need see the documental OG's comeback to win DOTA 2's TI8 | Against The Odds

I personally think Team Liquid was stronger on this time, they just lost to their own mentality. They were very stressed and easily tilted, if they have someone who has Ceb's mindset/coaching method, who knows what would happen. Kuru, MC, and w33 were very tilted

58:00 had me laughing so hard lol :D Grubby best

watch Red Bull's documentary for OG Against the Odds

I really like how Grubby instantly recognizes the differences in communication between the teams. I know a lot of people kept mentioning how Kuro is 'the calmest guy' and stuff, but in the end I think when he reflects on it he'll realize that he handled some of the things a tad poorly. In general they really (from the limited footage we get) seemed to pile the pressure on W33ha, when he was the most inexperienced member of the team who always felt like the odd one out already (because he wasn't 'part of the squad'). I think also a nice nuance (that Grubby might not know) is how Miracle used to play with OG, with N0tail and Seb (as coach) and was incredibly succesful, so he understands a lot about how they think about the game and the way they want to play. I think it played quite a big part in Miracle being able to make a few calls on what OG was going to pick, for example the Ember pick, where Kuro at that moment (probably due to the stress) wasn't really open to using the full potential of the knowledge around him. You can also see this with their coach RMN, who honestly had a great read on the games, but for whatever reason (again probably due to stress) Kuro just wasn't open to his comments. I think Liquid were up against it, because OG looked completely unbeatable with a vast amount of different strategies and drafts throughout the tournament. Nobody ever looked close to their level this TI. It was a great TI and I hope we get more entertainment like it in the future!

imagine in like 2024-2025 grubby winning TI :DD

Hope you can watch Og against all odds movie and ti7. There is also kiev truesight before ti7 and free to play documentary with dendi, if you still havent watch it yet.

I beg you to watch ti3 Na'Vi vs Tongfu "Fountain hook" video)) It's only 7 minutes long. One of the most iconic moments in Dota 2 competitive

I feel really bad for LGD. 3 straight TIs, always favorite to win

If you're interested, OG Against the Odds redbull video is pretty awesome too, it gives such a cool look on Notails, and also other OG members, history.

True sight sponsored by Marlboro?

I don’t know why RU-vid started recommending me Grubby but I’m so glad it did. Been playing since 2014 but it’s so nice to see someone so positive discover the joy of starting this game fresh.

As a huge fan of this Liquid team that documentary can be hard to watch lol. But I like how both teams respect each other, I prefer respect and friendliness to trash talk. By the way, Kuro and Notail, the captains of each team are actually good friends. Kuro coached/advised Notail on his previous TI, after the former got eliminated

You have to understand, OG won ti9 like it was nothing. Every few years, Dota sees a big change of Meta. From items, heroes, timings, etc, everything changes a little but as a whole it feels like a new game. That year OG came with the ultra early aggression, doing mid and late game tactics before minute 10 (mid game usually started around min 13 until that tournament). No one was ready for it. A stomp from start to finish the whole tournament. A meme was born: OG in ti8: underdog story; OG in ti9: overpowered villain.

Hi, Grubby! it seems you're new to Dota2 stuff. I hope you can also watch the RedBull's Against the Odds (OG Documentary on winning TI8). At least for me, it is more detailed and emotional than TI8. Enjoy

I think you are the perfect person to point out the differences between two teams, mentally. It was so polarised I felt bad for Liquid. If they had Ceb factor between games, we could have had a legendary series.

Yeah but there is also another story on how real life villain won against DotA 2. On how every single dev who worked early dota mod were buried and no one remembers, it's epic undocumented story too. People do it but out of their for each others game but I've been following dota since 2003 so I know what really happened but still yeah it was really bad drama too.

Grubby definitely needs to watch the Navi vs Tonfu fountain hook game. Things like that really is what separates DOTA from other MOBAs.

Tiny Airlines, boys! Lmao

But yeah its kinda cool that the old school spirit heros, are based of Pandaren brewmaster(wc3) Storm, Earth and Fire heed my call :)

1:58 I always thought that this was very sweet. 3 or 4 members of Liquid at the time were muslims and I think it's really nice that they were united by faith as well as friendship. I'm not religious myself but I have a very deep respect for people who can live their own faith in a healthy way, whatever it is they believe in. Especially if that can bring people together.

OG is Legendary team that win TI 2 times in a row, but never forget NaVi, the only team that entering the Grand Final 3 times in a Row ( 2011-2013 )

Kuro and wee low mentality

Man when I initially watched this true sight I thought kuro was actually pretty awesome with the motivational stuff. But the way you debunked that with reason has opened my eyes to a whole new level of thinking. You are a gem to Dota community man. Love you! ❤️

Grubby is the best thing that happened to this community in a long time. Wholesome af! Thx for giving our favourite hate-love a try mate!

Huuoo haaa!!! Waiting for this reaction.

1:09:14 perfect timing

Kuro was lost this entire series. Especially when he told MC to "Just play like Ceb". YIKES

Ti7 true sight and free to play next But man, Kuro and Puppey playing dota since 2005 and pro until now is someone that no one could match. Some of the players now weren't even born and Puppey and Kuro are already pros. And the best convo happened between Kuro and W33 "Thank Him, okay?" "Always" And this is after losing. W33 had the hardest since he was 1 game short twice. Like fy. And kuro was 1 series shy. Twice. He had 3 grand finals like Puppey and Dendi. Them 3 could have 3 ti championships if you think about it.

Hey Grubby, you should check out the TI3 finals. Its on of the most insane series ever played in dota. Its also interesting to see how much the game has changed since then.

You just save the dota community man, both those who are actively playing and us uncles who have our own family now and can only play 2-3x a week. Haha😅 In case you miss the last 1 min of ti9 true sight, Ceb just acknowledged Topson as the TI King with 2/2 TI wins and 100% TI win rate during this time. And another fact, Ceb scouted Topson thru Jerax.

Niceeee

Would love to see u reacting to classic dota moments like tnc vs og ti6 or navi vs alliance game 5 ti if u haven't...anyways obsessed w watching ur vids

Damn, liquids reactions to losing always gets to me, I feel bad for all of them

Sad to see that these dOGs stole the prize pool after already being a millionaire Now they look like drug addicts, crazy what money can do to people

im pretty sure it’s all about the psychology. Look how tense liquid is and the only person to blame is kuro- look at ceb; making sure all his teammates are comfortable and then there kuro- dont do this dont do that shut up dont talk etc etc like there is no way they win with that mentality

7:35 It wasn't immediate humility in my opinion. He said "oh woah" because the compliment sounded a little... off. "You're probably the best Spectre player in this stadium". Not the best spectre player in the whole world, or even the best in this stadium.. "probably" the best in the stadium. So Ana says.. "oh woah.." like "thanks man what a compliment".

grubby, did you already watch the red bull true sight from TI8??? if not, you should do!

at arround TI9, Io (support) Gyro (carry) is a very strong combo, and at TI9 they did both as a core, so busted.

TI9 is the OG show. Nothing but sheer dominance.
