I came here again to tell you that your work and effort was not unnoticed, I've watched your videos countless times and certainly not forgotten them! I'm sorry that the story writer just walked out on you, I can't even imagine how that would feel. You've made an amazing impact on the community of DotA 2 and SFM content creators alike. I'm sad to see you go but happy that you've realized what was making you feel depressed and that you can now fully focus on programming and college. If you start a new channel to do with anything at all please let me know because I think that you're an awesome guy, and I'd love to support any future projects that you may have. Thanks for being so amazing and good luck with whatever the future may hold for you. Just a side note: Ale Rush is pretty cool ;)

[@TheMrKlump]

[@NanaCottonNyan]

dasstefan BOOM!

[@NanaCottonNyan]

***** So why they don't do it? I saw one of the animations of Riot, in 2D and it was great, but they can't animate their in-game models because they're horrible. No face rigg, just a plane, toon shader: the most easy way of make a low-poly model look good Have you ever seen the Dead Island trailer? Beautiful, amazing... but the game sucks, I don't say LoL sucks, but being objective (I am an animator) the art and animation in Riot games in-game is basic, boring and poor. They sell something false.

The Terrorblade-Antimage brothership reference was the video for me. Insta-liked.

[@megato88]

ya, the connection between tb and anti-mage was really something in dota1..i still consider tb and anti-mage as brothers in dota 2 though

[@ZaikoDimebag]

Best Dota Video Ever, really, you achieved what nobody could achieve. Congratulations

[@X1erra]

Ha, that's a powerful looking recreation of a typical bait-ambush-teamfight. Really well done, Swordz! (Though I wish there's more of Terrorblade back there xD)

[@Tequilibrium]

It was the best I watched lately... Dude go on, dont ever stop!!

[@MrPencas4U]

Hahahha I loled to some comments... it is easy to critizice, but hard to make videos like this. WELL DONE MAN! this is just AWESOME! it is true that maybe the camera was a little bit close, but maybe it was done on purpose to hide parts of the models. But still who are we to critizice you, AWESOME VIDEO!

[@herbertt.1995]

Holy crap, this must be the most majestic dota 2 vid on youtube.. Keep up the good work bro! Hope to see another coming from you Swordz

[@TheFraMTK]

i'm not gonna lie, before watching the video i thought it was about an epic battle between the first and the second team shown and a giant terrorblade in ranged form xD

Wow that was amazing effect!!

[@mZStarCraft]

Activating your BKB and then proceeding to laugh maniacally at your opponent doesn't seem like a good use of the 5seconds of magic immunity.

For anyone wondering, the music is "Plastic Night II" from Blazblue Chrono Phantasma's original soundtrack

Wonderful. As always one of the most detailed SFM out there.

[@DasJiggly]

and then, Terrorblade swaped his life with antimage and died.

[@TheOwlslayer]

That was pretty darn epic. Especially that ember spirit vs Earth Shaker and PA fight. Really cool, and well made!

[@DOTA2FroggyStyle]

Swordz, have you considered opening a kickstarter to write/direct and then hire an animation team for maybe a longer film? I figured if you could get like even 15k you could do like a good 20-30 minute short film. ;)

[@DOTA2FroggyStyle]

***** Where the fuck did you come up with your numbers? lol

[@lectricanman]

DOTA2FroggyStyle Go check out the kick starter for Doraleus and associates.the episodes aren't particularly long but the project was expensive. I'm not sure how expensive but it's worth a look.

[@DOTA2FroggyStyle]

***** Yes, "trust you" some random dude on the internet. Last I looked for game production I could outsource to a Chinese or Indian firm for animation that would average around $95 (US) per second of character animation. All of his characters already have materials and are rigged; he would just need to decide how he wanted to act things out and where he would need help for animation. You're completely exaggerating the costs of animation.

[@NanaCottonNyan]

***** If we're talking about a Dota 2 animation movie of 20 or 30 minutes, it wouldn't take so much time because the models, textures and most of the backgrounds are already done And DOTA2FroggyStyle, you shouldn't think that about the costs of animation :( I'm an animator and it really sucks when you hear people saying "MEH, IT'S JUST ANIMATION, LET'S PAY THEM LESS OR LET'S GO FIND SOME CHINEESE OR INDIAN ANIMATORS, BECAUSE WE CAN PAY THEM IN RICE BOWLS" (no, I'm not kidding, I've seen that happen...)

[@SuperStrangePerson]

Hell yes!!! There needs to be loads more of this. Way more. More animated dota fights. More badassery with even better choreography and animation! More!!

[@KingStug]

Best sfm I've ever layed eyes upon!

[@patricksusulin9335]

i wish terrorblade was the reason anti mage despise magic. i mean their not borthers in dota 2! but my thought of why anti mage hates magice because of terrorblade is 1 terrorblade sundered or took the life or his lover or 2 the borther issue of terrorblade was jealous of anti mage because he had more attention over their family or clan and studied dark magic to suck all of their clans soul to gain power...

[@Volothos]

You know, while the original bio is interesting for AntiMage-Undying banter, this does seem just as good. If only it was something like that :D

[@Flyron32]

[@Wildcolt]

Earth Spirit, Earthshaker, Phantom Assassin, Tusk, Witch Doctor vs Ember Spirit, Pudge, Legion Commander, Anti-Mage, Warlock, Terrorblade. So yea 5v6, new meta.

[@alessiocomito3789]

Maybe they're Earth Spirit, Earthshaker, PA, Tusk and Witch Doctor vs. Ember, Pudge, LC, AM and Warlock. Terrorblade is in no team; he just come for take the souls of the dead ones.

[@trumpetsunite]

Alessio Comito Pretty sure it is that, but to me it looked like WD wasn't on anyones teams either.

[@alessiocomito3789]

BandNerd124 The flashbeams of his ultimate has hitted only Ember, Pudge, LC, Warlock and AM, so I think he was on the Earth Spirit's team.

[@trumpetsunite]

Alessio Comito Then how did tusk and earth spirit die? And I'm also pretty sure he wasn't on anyone's team by the way he smiled at all the dead bodies.

[@Exist64]

[@milanbrkic1001]

Zaarc Baan As i said,against noobs :D

[@nubeflotantee]

I know this is really late but I think the whole zooming thing was not a flaw or a mistake, I think it's a matter of style. It really gave the video a strong anime style, taking the zooming and short cuts in the action scenes, which are really caracteristic from anime in general, and made great use of them. Some may say that while zoomed in, they don't understand what's going on, but it's a matter of paying good attention to the little details and the background movement amongst the characters. I really enjoyed the video and think it's awesome, so keep up the good work, hopefuly coming out soon. :)

[@Philosjutsu]

Aside from a little tweaking, the other, usually overlooked part of this vid is; those are in-game graphics. xD Suck on it LoL.
