True, curse is very strong. But so is slow, bloodlust and faerie fire. But there's a counter to all that, it's called dispel. It takes only one disenchant to remove curse from a quite large area (more than 5 units if you get them together). If you don't dispel, then it's your fault.
@@Lapoiinte911 I know, also dispel must be used manually, while curse is auto. But that's how it works, in the end the game was very close, Grubby played very good in the start and mid game, but made some mistakes late game. Not having shop was a huge problem, but I think the main mistake was focusing the lich while dk had a lot of mana to heal and also lich had invul. Maybe focusing dk would have a different ending.
Fel Stalker dying so quick was also bad. If it hadn't been summoned in the midst of enemies and gotten a Spirit Link+heals, it would have drained out the DK and forced Happy back.
i agree. Grubby rebuild the tauren totem very fast - but did not so with the shop. Some extra heal/manapots for bm/Sh would have been great last fight. If he sees this attack and knows he will not be back in time, he might send 1 peon a little bit outside of his base to rebuild a shop even before the 1st one gets kicked. Just an idea...i am not a pro player at all...but may be this would have give him more flexibility last fight.
Yeah youre probably right....but surviving a little bit longer brings up sometimes little oppurtunities (or mistakes by your enemies) you might not meet otherwhise.
2 big mistakes: no scout before creeping the island and No shop Intense game Ps:does the opponent see your units when cursed or was that only the case with tailors? Didn't play in ages
Super close. I counted 36 missed BM attacks in that fight. That is somewhere in between 1800 and 7700 missed damage. But it was hard to keep track and I saw BM only 3/4 of the fight. BM is your main source of damage, that hurt a lot. Maybe Mirror Image could solve this? If you had built a shop in the back earlier, you would have outlasted that fight easily. This time you focused statues, which was a good choice I feel. You get closer.
11:53 @Grubby you're even concerned by killing the poor sheep ?! 🤣 That was epic indeed, happy's heroes are very hard to kill but imo, you're the king of micro ! GG 👍🇩🇿
Lol the meta level of these guys. Grubby is doing the golem trick and the opponent knows it so he sends a worker to stop it and it's only on that map vs Orc
So unfortunate how the 130g vodoo lounge dictated the last 10 minutes of the game. If he had one that were intact he would have taken the win. Nonetheless great content as always, amazing skills and impressive gameplay!
Notice me, master @Grubby Huge bow for that game! Intense, exciting, nerve wrecker, nail biter, next level. I understand how insane that might sound, but I am watching this replay for the 15th time the least.. Just thought I might share my thoughts on something crucial that could have changed the outcome of the game. ***Disclaimer - I am not saying I can do that better than the master, just some opinion : ) 14:50 - the idle time of the zeppelin + 15:10-15:21 - idle units in the zep + 15:23 - whatever that unload-load was :D + 15:37 - wouldnt an unload in your base work out for the better? Totally its between 35 and 55 seconds loss of time, which seemed crucial, losing the baracks and the beastiary meanwhile. Apart from that (which bothered me day and night for almost 3 months or so and I had to do this comment), the fight was flawless. I stress on flawless! Just the missing production, while he had constant reinforments made it impossible.. Hail Master Grubby!
i fight against grubby in 2-2 longggg time ago when it was only Frozen throne . I was with my friend ( 2 UD) and he was Orc of course with his friend Human . I remember very well cause we make mass gouls and they destroy us with only their héroes (Archimage and Tauren chief :)) ? Think he got the 4K Clan at this moment
Guys I dont get what happened. So Grubby fucked up on micro control or what? What about the shop? What went wrong? I mean I get it about banshees curse but grubby also had taurens to dispel those.
thank you for such an epic game grubby and happy. but omg ud is way too strong in long battles orc winning early game and then boom teir 3 ud 10000 hour fights.......
Kodos kinda really suck because devour is ridiculously hard to ever land a hit. They have zero defense so they loose half their health before they even miss the devour then you need the speed scroll to run away before dying. I wish kodos weren’t hot garbage.
all that time spent creeping the island then spending a long time ferrying back your squad on two trips. Would have been better to carry a tp - you'd think
Yes -- some spawn locations, you will have slow peons until you have all 5 peons on mine. If you control peons and help move them, you get more gold early on.
With all credit to Happy, I now wonder if UD need a slight nerf, not sure which though. My two main nerf candidate are statues and orb of darkness. Just so much sustain in fights and lich dps, respectively
@@FollowGrubby really appreciate how u never complain about balance, last time i heard something even close to that by you was on tranquility cooldown and just a 10sec calm rant, ggwp :D
Did grubby turn his twitch channel into a susbscriber exclusive channel or is it bugged for me? I cano´t watch any video anymore. And if so, why did he do that? I loved to watch him play, go grubby go!
@@FollowGrubby Aye. I am a country neighbour, so in that case I can easily access your livestreams. And good luck and success in training!! Also, I just remember that you said you would never go for tournies again, but its hard times I guess.
