The Clutch Play that Saved Dota's Greatest Underdog Story 

I like how nobody mentioned that in that 1 second that Ceb's Axe wasn't tracked, FY asks "Where's Axe?" just before the call hits them

"How dare they pick Axe in front of the Tusk King" Fy, moments before disaster

Crowd: Go home OG! OG: Sure we will. With the Aegis of course.

I love how this channel has dedicated a big chunk to OG. The most epic dota 2 story came from this team, and the most epic call of ti8 came from Ceb. Legends 💕

Watching this in 2024. This was definitely PEAK Dota2. How I miss this era 💔

To put it further in perspective, the Open Qualifiers -> Regional Qualifier -> Group Stage was *over* *5680+* *teams* . OG was just *one* of those teams. They played a fuckload of matches and at any time was at most 1 or 2 games from instant elimination. They *earned* that win like none other.

"Lose together, Win together, Slay together." -A MFKING LEGEND WHO GOT THE CALL OF HIS LIFETIME!!

People should appreciate topson's invoker micro and macro control during the fight before the call. He drops ice wall preventing the enemy from walking out of range, hi hit the overseer ancient to root the closest hero canceling any split reaction and blinking high ground to force them to follow him in a smaller area within the 100aoe talent, he even made the enemy have to focus him rather than following ceb's axe. So even though many may not notice his micro it was what made that call possible.

welp time to rewatch all the truesight documentaries again.

TI8 Game 4 is the best game played in any competitive gaming event ever. Two AMAZING teams trading blows, and ODPixel commenting that fateful game for the biggest prize pool ever at it's time. I remember watching that game and just the roller coaster of emotions and amazing plays that just blew your mind while you were experiencing it. I still get chills watching Cebs amazing call.

Man this game 4 alone deserve at least 2 episodes of Every seconds count. The CEEEEB call is my favorite moment in esport, but the Ana's play when he got ganked and he sold the right items to have buy back is the most impressive play ever.

Even after all these years, this series still stands out as peak DotA. Also this is SPECTACULAR format for DotA content (and moba content in general) really good analysis and break down of explaining the intricacies of the game and why this moment is so epic!

It doesn't matter how many times I rewatch their run, it always gets me emotional. Such a great feat.

Almost 2022 and Ceeeeeeeeeb is still in top 3 chat wheel along with Lakad Matataaggg and Easiest Money of my life

I love everything about OG at TI 8. My favourite game of all time is game 3 of the upper bracket final, the "jerax, the saviour of OG" game.

I love how every TI always turns out to be an anime

That game 4 is just pure magic one of the best game I have ever watched

Loved this video, I'm a huge dota fan and I think this play was explained perfectly! Also I love this video format! I know nothing about LoL but if the explanation is as good and detailed as this one, I'm sure I'll enjoy the next video too!

always got goosebumps when rewatching the clip

The moove, the drama, the commentators ... LoL scene can only dream of a move like that !

those who chanted "GO HOME OG" that day never spoke of Dota ever again

Where is Axe? - Famous last words

Ah man the OG's TI Run...So inspiring..what a story...I told the story to a friend who doesn't know what DOTA is...But he still had chills...The Emotional element of the story is so surreal.. Everyone can understand it even if they don't play Video games...

Im not a dota player but i love this story. Never seen the ceb call broken down so clearly, means much more to me now!

Should've included ana's clutch item sell to have a buyback since you were talking about the game. That split second decision was insane and... Every Second Counts

Thats an awesome video. The story is amazing in any way...but the storytelling and explanation is really on point.

This moment was soo soo important ! Also Ceb carried the whole game Although fy and chalise's tusk and brewmaster were top tier performance!

This video is nicely done! Good job at explaining this incredible play!

What a great video. We need more of this. Wow. Great stuff

Yep, this is a sign to watch all the Truesights and Against All Odds. Btw, all Truesights are either with or without Team Liquid and OG, the next one's gonna be a little weird.

The legendary run. Power of friendship

TI8 FINALS DOTA IS PEAK DOTA. HANDS DOWN. SO MANY PLAYS TO BE AMAZED OF AND THIS CEEEB CALL PROLLY THE BEST OF THEM ALL.

Game 4 of TI8 grand finals was the most intense game ive ever watched, it might be a personal opinion but it made it so intense just because of How OG even got there and they were literally on the edge of defeat, yet they pull it back together in that very game and carried their momentum to the last game OG's 2 time TI champion run is the BEST Esports underdog story to this time, Change my mind

I follow a lot of different esports. CSGO, Valorant, League, CoD, MLBB etc., But for some reason the casting from this specific play gives me Goosebumps all the time. Incredible esports casting.

If LoL had more comeback potential I think their tournaments would be way bigger than they already are. Most of the time it feels like there isn't a battle going on and all of a sudden there is one big team fight and that decides the game. In dota you only get that feeling after 40 minutes into the game.

I've watched every one of OG's triumph videos across the two TIs (several times in fact). But the iconic line, of "Ceb, he gets the call of his lifetime" is simply just the most unforgettable moment of their legacy. Funnily enough, with this caster "call", ODpixel literally got the "call of his lifetime". Something fun to think about! XD

this and the miracle's zet dome defense play are the best TI moments for me. it felt like Gods from realms beyond had descended to entertain us mere mortals with their phenomenal dota skills

The details shared in this video and this series are phenomenal and what makes this channel awesome.

I've seen this many times. But still it gave me goosebumps everytime.

Really love your series every second counts

Finally a dota video

Man. This OG Dream era is something that will forever be a hall of fame iconic and legendary tale, but damn. Seeing Fy's empty face and Somnus's tears in the end was pretty heartbreaking. This iteration of LGD was insane and they deserved to win it no less than OG. TI8 was just special. Without a doubt the best one so far imo.

Even though i watched this seen over and over it still gives me goosebumps🤯

8:36 the karma of this is so KEKW

Begin with moon meander, and then s4, after that Ceb, and now AMMAR THE F. OG non stop regeneration and always come with a new fresh gameplay in every generation

Prob the most important game in the history of DOTA2. This game has been watched, studied, and made example of by a lot of people so many times. It's not just the game aspect, but also the off-game aspect, the mental aspect of the players and the team building and everything.

ceb's "your mama so fat" taunt was very effective

Man, I'm so proud I know Dota and OG

It's not just how clutch Ceb was, but also how the team played probably one of the craziest matches I've seen. It's the same game that Ana PL died due to overextension and he sold 2 items to have buyback. PSG LGD forced Ana buyback and Ana used it to defend the base to drag the game on. If not for Ana selling the 2 items before his PL died, they would've lost the game. And in this video at 12:38, Jerax relocate Ana to get out of that fight, and yet we see Jerax pretty much relaxed, even when it's a game that decides if they will have game 5 or will PSG LGD be the TI8 champions. He said "Ana, you wanna relo(cate) into their base? memes?" At 14:31, we saw how Ana was fighting a 1v5 after notail's Chen got taken out almost immediately. The team quickly threw everything they got to make sure Ana was alive, as well as Ceb pretty much calculate the best time he should call. On the map, Ceb was just trying to find an opening that would not only save Ana, but also get Ana to benefit out of that teamfight so they can still fight on afterwards. If not for team's ability to play so well, even if Ceb were to call at that time, I don't think all these legendary plays would've mattered. A team effort, and OG definitely proved everyone how well they can play, even if the world casted them out. I've rewatched all OG games in 2019 and all the games they did in the upper bracket in 2018, extremely impressed, as well as a well-deserved 2x TI Champion team. I would also wanna point out it's an even year for TI, and in the history of Dota 2, every even year of TI has been a Chinese team that won.

Imagine the feelings of those people who chant "GO HOME OG".

Dude, great job. Thoroughly enjoyed that. 👌🏼

This is one of the Best Moment of Dota

some of cebs words were prophetic in this series.

still gives me goosebumps.

This still give me goosebumps Everytime I'm watching it.

Finally someone break down this masterpiece moment, thanks

Please do a video on how Open AI beat TI champs version of OG, and 1v1 mid against Dendi before that , and Deepmind AI beat StarCraft pros as well

Ana sold his items "what items did he sell?"~Jerax

we all know that the ANA item selling for buyback is the most important clutch play. and the ceb call just adds up at the moment the TI8 is TI of clutches.

Ceb: Gets the call of his lifetime ana: "I don't even know what the fuck is going on, I can't even see my hero."

This really is the best video you will find on this topic, no argument

The only truesight that i can watch over nd over again. Most epic game of dota.

Gaben- how many videos can you make on OG Thescore eSports- 14,000,605

Honestly I think Ana's secret shop sell to get buyback was more fitting for this series but good video none the less

Ceb is the greatest position 3 to grace the game 2x TI winner 5x Major winner might be the best dota coach of all time as well

OGs run never gets old, please keep doing dota content like before!

That godlike call from Ceb tilted LGD so hard, they were malding at game 5 against a lineup that looked like a 4k pub match

True TI8 Battle for the Aegis. Once in a lifetime match-up

I love you Josh and I think this was brilliantly put together and well explained, but when it comes to Dota content we need our boy Dmitri.

The only story I don't mind hearing and watching over and over and over again

It's been 3 years but it is still a legendary moment

I think the most important thing here was that wyvern hitting the -50% base armor reduction, screwing up morph, which makes him pretty much dd+ for PL :)

This storyline was always cool but I’ve never played dota. It’s cool learning what’s actually going on

ODPixel is the greatest caster in history of Esports! That guy casting gives goosebumps!!!

The play that Ana did in the Secret Shop is literally the title of this video , but nice video too :D

Every now and then i always watch TI8 game series esp. in game 4 and 5 grand finals between OG and PSG LGD over and over again. This is the best series of all time in the DOTA history.Thanks also, not to mention for the True Sight movie.c",) 2 Thumbs Up! 👍👍

Pure goosebumps. This will never get old.

Jerax: Memes Ana: Fck off

"There's your forward! There's your slam! There's the dunk! There's the play!" There's Tobiwan!

And the curse of PSG.LGD the team who lost at both underdogs OG and Team Spirit

This was truly my favourite hero.

The crowd literally went from " *Go home OG!* " to the whole arena getting hyped on that play.

Fight broken down nicely

How about the ana selling his items to get buyback gold?! that's the most subtle but crucial play

I find it shocking that this channel has not made a video of each player that was part of the Team Spirit TI win.

Never gets old

An incredible glimpse into an incredibly interesting piece of esports history

@DPascaluta @ThrownGauntlet really cool analysis on game 4 draft!

Underrated in game 5: Notail's Furion kept Somnus' Kunkka occupied in the Roshan pit clash.

ODPixel shouting Ceb's name still give me goosebumps

actually the Ench was well aware about the axe , but he was slowed by the wall and that end pixel range of that call

Finally a Dota2 content! Keep it up! 😁

OG really emphasize the word comeback is real,having the last minute team and grab a member whose new to profesional tournament being a clearly underdog team in any Dota players eyes at the time yet they come to top to become 2 TI Champion if thats not the greatest story of a gaming team i dont know what is

Never want this to end

CEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEBBBBBBBBBB!!!! HE GETS THE CALL OF HIS LIFETIME!

OG era

With Anna's illu, Ame's illu and the natural camp. If you do not have knowledge in the game that clip is so hard to keep track of hahahaha

say it with me: CEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEB

Actually, the best underog story is that of Team Spirit, since unlike some of the OG members, no one knew who Collapse, Torontotokyo, Mira and Yatoro were (well, probably Miposhka was known to some degree, but still)

I dont understand shit about dota but i really enjoy this videos
