Replay of the Year 2010 Candidate - Grubby (O) vs. MooN (N)

[@codymonsoon4067]

I appreciate that you keep your commentary to what is happening in the game. :) Too often I see casters start talking about other things while barely following the action on the map.

[@dreamscomposer]

Yep, I remember that replay I watched back then... OMG, I guess 90% or so would just go GG after the first hero deaths... Those guys are definetely legends!

[@MagnetiX]

Jesus, this is anxiety inducing. My butthole was clenched the entire time. Such an amazing match. Amazing commentary also!

[@Heartadia]

You are too uptight.

[@GregHuffman1987]

i always keep my buttho clenched like an iron fist

[@Brevek]

How did I get here? And why did I watch the whole thing?

[@Indignation92]

+the 226 we all have that moment m8

[@danasauer2381]

Because there is a reason it's called Rotw? Oh and it would be nice to know what you mean exactly "how I get here", like do you play the game? :D

Best game I’ve ever seen, realy enjoyed it very much!

57:15 Grubby could not TP out here because there is no great hall on the map.

Grubby still had a great hall. It was destroyed at 57:22... lol u blind.

[@HalBDeU]

The only weakness of moon was himself. He practiced way too much everytime, making sometimes sloppy mistakes. He was even aware of it. Anyways very good game between 2 of the best players wc3 ever saw :)

[@Ashu2448]

It amazes me to witness Grubby ... such a high level with 2 staff of silence not killing those 14-15 talons with bladestorm and winning easily .... he was constantly using mana on wind walk and was getting revealed.

[@shamelhowell7860]

This is the only thing I never understood. What was the mana cost on blade storm? Does cyclone cancel bladestorm? Most likely there was no chance to use it. This guy is the best ORC and knows whats up.

[@Ashu2448]

@@shamelhowell7860 you are immune to magic or spells in bladestorm ...I guess you loose common sense by the pressure of playing someone of that level

[@Jiesse1610]

Mindblowing game. Just incredible.. Thx for upload + cast!

[@KagamiGaming]

starting the video i thought who is the person talking. then i read: brought to you by remodemo. he doesnt sound like todays remo at all, iam blown away by how much of a difference a quality mic makes. unreal.

[@Dudarinho]

it was amazing times when we were so young

[@tweeze123]

Godlike macro from both. It's unfortunate grubby didn't notice the sneaky expo right next to his base until it was too late

[@saeenclops]

this is by far the best game i've ever witnessed from both of these players

[@ghfjfghjasdfasdf]

Absolute nail biter. Thanks for the upload and solid commentary.

[@CombatWombat321]

Why no Blademaster Ultimate and kill all the talons at once?

[@Arthas35788]

+CombatWombat321 talon can just fly and he would wasted is mana for ult

[@AfooPL]

+Arthas35788 he had silence

[@exertoins7084]

+Afoo Not sure he ever had the mana or the position to do this

[@livingmaulana]

lv3 WW is much more better for him (of spending bm manas), see the post-match analysis: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a6rMlYdoeZWlmbs

[@johndarrell264]

I agree he had silence to prevent crow form. Coulda wiped those talons. Argue that killing like 6 talons is not a good use of mana go ahead.

[@MeltingBoy]

Grubby was so close to win in first half of game, but everytime he trying to kill main tree and lost too much. Great micro, great players, great game!

[@2RosarioVampire]

+Pavlikov Roman Grubby pretty much lost like nothing every time he did a base race. It was moon who was forced to use tp each time while Grubby was enjoying using nothing but a speed scroll. What made Grubby lose was that he didn't notice the expansion right next to him ^^

[@B20C0]

Damn, the memories. I played the hell out of this game for years... Am I wrong or did Grubby get a bit worse? There was a time when he was never making micro mistakes like that.

[@C4Reining]

what a game.

[@KaevYT]

[@DonCaesariux]

+Andre Martins sounds terrifying

[@SolusBatty]

Why the Grubster didn't whirlwind into the Talons? That makes him invul to cyclone right? Could have bought a mana pot to do it.

[@horse-4598]

i was wondering the same thing, im sure he could afford to use one mana potion to use it. even on heros it would be good

[@BiriBiri925]

I think the reason was that Grubby thought that Moon was looking forward to it. Waits and he immediately transforms them into ravens. It was a mental game. This is the only reason that comes to my mind.

[@Rad1a7i0n]

Legend has it that the expo on the right haunts Grubby to this day.

[@iunary]

the itemdrop probabilities are premade during map creation, ingame drops or order of kills does not change them. they are FIXED and saved inside the map file.

[@CarlosHonorioBriones]

fucking awesome old school game!

[@danasauer2381]

doesn't matter, it's still being played alot and alot of fun. I just recently got back into it and am having a blast.

[@iliaslerias7374]

it is? how long does it take to find a game? I might get into this again,used to play NE such an amazing game... Orc is so annoying though, speed scroll still gives me nightmares!

[@iagoribeiro4940]

[@Spacevet]

Staff of silence x2!!!

[@TH-dg2mm]

Warcraft3 is such an insane game. Modern games like League of Legends or CS:GO demand 100% of your skill & attention sometimes, but also have plenty of down time where you're dead or between rounds. WC3 demands you're full skill and attention for up to an hour.

Finally, a video where Grubby loses xD

57:06 There is a good reason why Grubby doesn't TP.

[@Iamherenow]

Yea he doesn't have a town hall :P

[@jialerchang9256]

he has. 56:59

[@jialerchang9256]

i think he didn't tp because there's no use. The other orc troops can still be killed during the tp. Only the BM is invulnerable.

[@Ketroc]

can't tp to it when its under production.

[@jialerchang9256]

ohh i see

[@hemptime123]

Thanks a lot for the cast. nice to re visit wc3 for some nostalgia. can you possinly find some good happy replays? he was my favorite undead player.

[@pinglankek]

why do pros never utilize a zepplin to expand safely on the other goldmines behind main bases etc? I never seen this, and i wonder why since it seems quite good to me sometimes

[@bltnbros122]

gold mines at the corners were forbidden??

[@LivingLyfelikeaMuffin]

[@GagnarIsUnruly]

Can somebody explain why Grubby kept expanding so close to Moon? I feel like his first expo, after he killed Moon's was just him taunting Moon. When he kept trying for the whole game without taking one of the closer expos I was scratching my head.

[@danasauer2381]

The first time close - because he thought he won.. 2nd idk

[@DivineAtheistWannabe]

Ah, back in a time when orc would never get to tier 3

[@rob0matic]

grubby played the macro hit and run game then had a brain aneurysm and played like a bronzie completely ignoring obvious and probable expo spots. As he goes in for the win and moon rebuilt his whole army really fast obviously he has alot of gold. Why only 2 heroes if your never gonna cast ultimate? TC aura woulda been huge later on. great game by both fun to watch.

@@AgeRestrictTheInternet ya I liked how warcraft2 looked like. It was pretty much sc. WC3 is about to be WOW RTS. I guess it is still an RTs so could be fun game.

[@jordangerous8562]

is there a reason grubby did not staff of silence and then bladestorm on the talons? it gives magic immunity so he would not have been tornado'd

[@2RosarioVampire]

+Jordan Mcevoy He doesn't have enough mana due to dh's mana burn. He only has enough for a windwalk and he does not want to be mana burned again and lose everything.

[@jordangerous8562]

I forgot about the beastmasters hawk, i was wondering why he didnt pop a mana potion and ult, but the hawk has true sight. so the threat of mana burn was relevant, my bad lol

[@livingmaulana]

See the post-match analysis: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a6rMlYdoeZWlmbs

[@johndarrell264]

Why not pop a mana potion then?

[@sebastianvera6360]

He could've used illusion to enter then a mana pot and bladestorm lol :v

[@vinaigrettino]

Grubby biggest mistake is that he didn't reveal second expansion of Moon

[@DefjamX06]

you dont say :D

[@philipps258]

there are more choices I would have taken otherwise (but hey.. i'm the noob) - why didn't he chose to fight at his expansion when they had even supply and he was one expansion ahead? - why did he SO many hero focus instead of playing with staff/raiders/BM against the druids? - too much running away Yes, he forced many portals but he could have picked so many druids one by one and moon had no opportunity (wind tree was missing nearly all the time) to rebuild.

[@danasauer2381]

no shit

[@drimz2949]

Woah good game. Idk if bunch of talon can win against rider

[@user-ge5oe9oo2k]

How come BM never uses ult?

[@l33tarded60]

ulti costs mana, demon hunter burns mana. there is really no point in getting the ulti for Grubby, he probably just specced up his crit or windwalk

[@5inned15]

If i recall correctly Bladestorm cant be stunned, he could kill all the talons with just 1 bladestorm, he had the chances.

[@danasauer2381]

Very good question. I didn't even think about it. Yea I think, because skilled opponent wll quickly spread its units and so you won't deal much damage. It's really only good vs buildings or if you ensnared everything (which he couldnt at the time, iirc).

[@andyofzz]

talons can fly guys......its just waste on mana

[@livingmaulana]

Grubby doesnt like Bladestorm that much, see the post-match analysis: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a6rMlYdoeZWlmbs

[@shamelhowell7860]

Wow grubby lost this game with more total score. Just means that Blademaster isnt as strong as he should be. Should have more tenacity vs cyclone or something. The staff of silence did so much though so was quite a fair game. I think Grubby was unsure how to win and missed a win middle game though. Was certain moon lost after grubby won a huge fight mid game.
