[@markvincentcocjin]

Yeah. It was so humbling to hear a soft spoken Ephey call your itemization dogshit. And the dogshit comment wasn't from Ephey's personality. It's from Dota culture that she's using to describe Grubby's decisions. Dota is effing harsh. You're not fighting NPCs. You're not in a shooter where the player enemies are reacting to seeing you. In Dota, the enemy is working, planning, and scheming to kill you. The un-polite community is just a reflection of the harshness of the game.

[@stefanutzap]

yea was not very cool since are many words you can use instead ...that's i stopped watch singsing for language like that..felt forced and used for content and so unbecoming...

[@IAmebAdger]

@@markvincentcocjin Idk man, you know people would be just as harsh in any other competitive team game, it's the online gaming demographic in general, we're used to getting super frustrated playing our games (remember angry unreal tournament kid XD) and then we take it out on whoever makes a mistake we happen to see. There is a reason n00b is a well-established insult in gaming, we all hate playing with someone who is inexperienced and feel like it's okay to abuse them.

[@adriendoste6269]

That was brutal lmao

[@ShadeDemon2141]

Ephey describes the game so beautifully! Great video I learned a lot.

[@deuge]

It's truly impressive, there are many players as knowledgable (maybe even more so) but in terms of having perfect explanations that all contribute to a clear picture of what you have to do - she's really freaking good.

[@IAmebAdger]

I like she asks questions to challenge him to learn to think about situations.

[@voswouter87]

DotA 2 balance is really good, so items are rarely overpowered in general. If an item is so strong it's for specific heroes in specific matchups.

[@MarioGomez-yi6gs]

It's such a shame Grubby didn't let her coach with Earth Spirit. I think it would suit Grubby's pos 4 play style and she's one of the most suitable coaches for the hero since she plays him a lot at a high level. I myself climbed my way to Divine just spamming Earth Spirit.

[@FollowGrubby]

We talked about it before and she deemed it unwise at this stage due to my level and inexperience

[@Pmon21]

truely humbling experience from my boy.. as always that's how you appreciate Ephey. very well versed. can't wait for grubby to make Stroger. moments like this makes dota player becomes immortal.

[@colorless195]

Ephey should replace "Alexa"

[@timometsanoja9666]

This is Dota... There is always something more you can do or a better item to have. And that's the beauty of it! The game is so deep that there is always something to improve even for Miracles and Topsons of the world. And that's why we keep playing, there is something to improve on, always...

[@retardo9633]

this video proves why u cannot rank up by solely playing support in 3k and below, random braindead shitstains like the spiritbreaker/pa will throw games even if u give them the perfect start

[@mez2965]

@Grubby Some OG advice (thousands and thousands of dota 1 games, heroes like Invoker did not exist yet): Try less strategic (macro & theory, wc3 style) and play more instinctive (micro). Also take the 12345 roles with a grain of salt until you are in top leagues. In these mediocre leagues just dominate everyone. Always. All the time. With any hero. Like a true dota gosu. Break their mental. Low level dota players generally have weak mentality and give up & rage after being outplayed once or twice. I love your Sven support. This is true dota. Final point, Ephey is right. Dieing is NOT ok. Never. Aim for 25/0 always. (Except high level games)

[@orbis17]

I'm a bit late, but there are a lot of good tips in the first 10 mins alone. Really easy to learn with how Grubby and Ephey communicated too

Poor grubby. She never agreed with him once. lol

[@Six_slotted]

oh grubby btw if youre still on this serious learning vibe i would recommend some of henrys (rawdota) old coaching videos from about 2 years ago it might be a controversial recommendation as a lot of people in community dont like him because a) he is toxic in pubs (flaming smurfing etc.) and b) he peaked rank wise i think at like rank 200 iirc but he had an ego like he was a pro player which he couldnt justify skill wise buut i think in terms of pure coaching, ive never seen anyone be able to articulate big picture concepts of dota and relate them to matchup specifics in the same way he isnt very active now i think because of depression that he has mentioned before but if you dont mind the content being on an old patch i cannot recommend him more highly. he was waay ahead of bsj teaching wise back then and even 2 years on bsj is just catching up to the standard he set. "How To CARRY LIKE A SMURF and DESTROY GAMES with 1 CONCEPT" is a good start quite short too

[@SpaNkeee]

aeon disk is a luxury item on supports. grubby likes to build it early on most of his supports games, but you have to remember, after like 12-15 mins your life as a support barely matters. protecting your cores has way more value than you surviving the fight and getting 1-2 spells off because of aeon. so a force/glimmer is 90% of the more valueable than an aeon. you would have spent less gold AND you would have gold for buyback. So you can safe your core, die, buyback and join the fight again. not even talking about the octatine core which is completely out of line other than that, great video! will recommend it to my lower ranked friends

[@SatraKien]

Can't believe in such a short time Grubby is higher ranked than me.

[@ratomorto5]

Grubby do you remember a game you played vs someone with a italian name like Stephano or something like this? Orc vs Human. He destroyed your bases but you kept raiding him and hiding Townhalls around the map.

[@Taunt61]

i think that's stephano the legendary SC2 zerg player (french). he used to play human in WC3, still does I think every now and then.

[@benmols]

I don't think Grubby realises that wraith pact so broken that it was grief not to buy it. But greaves is not broken, it's good, but you don't have to buy it to win a game. Whereas that wasn't the case with wraith pact - you had to buy it.

[@benmols]

@Omvi Lya I'm talking about on the previous patch - gubby was talking as if greaves is as broken as wraith pact was. He started playing Dota during a patch with such a broken aura item that he thinks you NEED an aura item in every game even if it doesn't synergise with your hero. In previous patches the wraith pact was so broken that it wasn't grief to buy it on a 3 4 or even a 5!

[@ujwallamichhane1820]

I think force is broken this patch at least 1 support needs it

[@Klimbo93]

Im 5-7 minutes in and I definetely don't agree with Ephey Her recommendations are good for a high level match where the builds are considered during drafting. Instead I can see a fast aeo heal rush agains invoker luna is super valuable, and self dispell from BH track too. Shard is definetely super valuable y specially when there is a sb in your team, but force staff really seems like having bad value regardin the picks and the skill bracket: the invoker bh void can definetely chase down whoever is forced back, unless some superior communication+positioning is going on, which would never happen in a solo ranked legend game. Baseline is, her advice is not adapted, and adapting your build is a major factor of playing dota correctly

[@RodelIturalde]

Force is like the best support item in the game, in all brackets. Creating distance is sometimes enough to save your core, which makes it worth it.

[@Klimbo93]

@@RodelIturalde no item/built/hero is best in every game - every context - no matter what. You gotta prioritize and adapt, or you are simply another flatbrain "find match" click addict. Statistics are a consequence, not a cause. If the "usual" cause does not apply, you'll be smart to realise you are in the exception side of the rule. I don't know in what other way to ilustrate the same thing over, so if you don't get it, go ahead, play autopilot, but don't cry if rest of team sucks too.
