Always amazed how high elo players like you can keep their calm so much (or at least seem to keep it^^); i would have died many deaths and would have lost a lot of cools
Here I thought at 12:56 that that MK got away with ROBBERY! Little did I know that very shortly after, he was cooked Polishing off the AM and Co. w/ the Final Chain Lightning was SO satisfying
27:40 -- watch top of MINImap -- Grubby's wolf DISAPPEARED, without expiring (timer was too soon) or Grubby summoning NEW wolves ?! How does this happen?? It can't have been KILLED because earlier we saw it had MAX hp when it started chasing that footie !! :O . *EDIT:* I had to watch the replay to FINALLY figure it out: HawK simply pulled a Forest Troll Shadow Priest from his expo and *DISPELLED* that wolf... :P .
Very nice first game!! I was wondering, is it better to respec to Shockwave 3 when you have level 5 TC against Sorcs/Rifles/Priests? Stomp always feels like it doesn't do enough but then again the crowd control against the MK is very useful.
I think Hawk overfed waterellies.... Grub had lvl advantage the entire game. I mean, they are expendable but perhaps not that expendable. The burrow sniping was good, but Grub repaired really well so it took ages and he gained a lot of xp there . Especially when the shamans joined they became kind of a liability. Perhaps he should have retrained to blizzard there but maybe its already too late, but still, combined with the mass slow it would have done more than the ellies who just got purged. And with MK clap it would have been very interesting.
I know grubby has always said that you can say what you don’t mean, but I think its ok to not say “glhf” too. When I play any form of competitive game, the goal is to crush my opponents completely and utterly. Its why I can’t say “glhf” in good faith. I can however, say “gg” when the game is over because there are no hard feelings by then.
I wonder if Blademaster would have done better? Maybe even Blademaster with traditional Wind Walk/Critical Strike instead of Mirror Image? (Spoiler space) Seems that Far Seer just doesn't have what it takes to beat a Human this aggressive with an army that big.
Can Orc deny human fast expand if they go for blademaster? Just had a similar experience as your second game recently and got absolutely smacked in the face, albeit at a much much lower level.
