I think this challenge could work against undead because it's much harder for them to move their lumber setup because they can't power build, and can only build their lumber mill on blight

[@nicklachen5060]

no proxy mill. good point!!

it isnt much harder its slightly a inconvenience since they have the blight skull item in there shop that does a decent area.

Grubby: "locusts are free units!" Also grubby: "after some light 20 minutes of force of nature harass, we will transition."

[@Manocsak2]

To defend this normally step 1 buy arcane tower (generally good idea if you see a level 1 summoning keeper running around at the start of the game. step 2 if you see your oppenent start to keep building 99 building around you buy 2nd maybe 3rd tower step 3: as you can buy a second hero, buy naga, frost arrow will kill his hero no matter what, nothing to defend it(maybe buy boots if you feel unsure of your skill),, win it less then 8 min As Grubby went mass wisps a secondary summoning hero was the worst possible pick!

[@cake8242]

Another challange: Make the Enemy to your prisoner. Build towers in front of his base and kill him when he try to Break out. But dont destroy his base.

[@Jzscrstsprstr]

patrol behind towers with guard units, meanwhile creep if no attempts at prison break, do your business

[@xDreamninja]

i like this, making the opponent forefit when his gold runs out

[@StopFlaggingVideos]

Competent opponents will begin building siege and ruin it, so you’ll be forced to keep fighting them instead of just guarding. But you can still count that as containment if you keep most alive

[@sdamer4609]

Many years ago I played vs my friend by LAN and for some reason we got weird purple boxes instead of trees all over the map, like the textures issue whatever. It was the funniest game we ever played. We had no lumber income, and we could not make any extra farms to build more units. Just the starting amount of lumber and that's it.

[@GamingDualities]

when u only have reign of chaos (original game )but no frozen thone expansion and u play on frozen throne map :)

[@streetguru9350]

If there's a map where you can hide an AP and eat all the trees you can away from vision first, this strat would probably work a lot better.

[@dav666777]

tbh i think the strat would work better if he built wells for treant mana, and only micro'd 1 or 2 APs and actually built a base and trained units to back them up rather than spammed a hundred APs and let them all die bc he wasnt really microing them that much. A microed AP eats trees waaay faster than just shift clicking a bunch of trees and then letting it do its thing, the animation backswing on tree eating is super long. Kotg was killing trees significantly faster than the shift queued APs, so just making sure he always has mana would do more work towards that as well as being a much lesser strain on his resources. That being said I also think the game was still super winnable all the way up to the point where grubby decided to keep taking fights after his mine collapsed. The enemy didn't really seem aware that grubby had no expo, otherwise he would've been pushing a lot harder instead of going back to creeping, I really don't think he was gonna stop grubby from also creeping his expo.

[@dav666777]

@@Humanaut. oh yeah i agree by that point he knew, but grubby seemed like he had given up well before that

[@BrayZap]

This made me laugh so hard, cutting down the dudes forest so he cant get lumber and nothing he can do about it. It probably wasnt until like 10 mins in he realized what you were doing

[@therealbahamut]

I think all the other guy had to do was stick a unit or two on the keeper and not let him go. He was at death's door half the time; just one unit stuck to him would have chased him out or killed him. Grubby: builds 95% of his base in his opponent's base, using up his entire first gold mine on ancients of war: "Just a light harass"

[@sifk6163]

A lack of wood makes this a not so hard challenge.

[@freakelangelo]

Back when I first started WC3 one of my favorite things to do was building a “siege camp” before attacking enemies. I would build rax, lumber-mill and a shop, a couple of towers, then my heroes would host a meeting, and only after that I was satisfied enough to lead my troops to victory. So proxy lumber-mill is certainly something I’ve seen 😂 Great game!

[@natiive1444]

The good old days of gaming before KZbin videos where most people just look up a meta and follow a build guide or strat. As a kid I remember bringing my armies back to base after winning a battle as I imagined them sharing war story's and eating a feast 🤣 when in reality I probably could have just pushed and won lol. I also use to love trying to hide bases in the trees like make a little trail then a clearing to my base, it never won me any games I don't think but it was always funny to confuse my opponent lol.

[@emilrais3655]

If you will ever try this challenge again, I suggest going for covert wood-chopping. Build an Ancient of War at each side of his forrest, but dig in from behind. If he doesn't see your Ancients' of war he won't know until finally your ancients break through the last few lines of trees. Then you could focus on a somewhat regular build while the Ancients' go to town.

Do this strat but with Human. Get the improved lumber harvesting, then build a lumbermill near their base and gather wood from the opponent while distracting with towers.

[@oneoranota]

Quite frankly, the whole "Ancients or War eating trees like an all-you-can-eat buffet" was funny, but not really efficient. With such a huge forest in the starting base, you can't really deny early lumber. As you saw. The MOST efficient, in the same vein, imo, would have been to keep spamming treants with your hero. And specifically spawn them on the lumberers. This way, they always have to move or get killed. It would have disrupted his wood much harder. Need to see a vid with actual efficient wood harass now !
