Grubby | WC3 | How To MICRO BETTER?

[@FollowGrubby]

Let's do things a bit differently tonight, no game, just talk. One of my viewers tells me that he tends to "brain freeze" when a fight starts, thus losing his ability to micro. Let's address this issue by discussing ways to better prepare an encounter and crush your opponents!

[@thehitpack766]

awesome grubby. can you do a vid on UD VS UD Mirror match Ups Specifically. DK+Lich+Fiend Vs Lich/ ghoul. necromancer.

[@icepie3017]

Ctrl+z

[@ElvenSpellmaker]

You didn't have a game-plan about Paint erasing all your work Grubby! You need a game-plan per-OS in case you use any one of them, game-plan x4 (Windows, MacOS, Ubuntu, Fedora). Think about the next time and draw up a priority list: 1.) Save Often 2.) Use an online scratchpad for instant saves

[@kittandpup5633]

I like that Grubby spells properly how he says it

[@EmanuelRoll]

Never heard it put this way before. I practiced micro challenges and micro battles when playing sc2. But it makes sense that you need a good understanding of what to do and have a subconscious prio list. Thanks Grubby. Not playing but find this interesting! ❤️

[@kirksaintpatrick3921]

Best ending of any video! The fight at the end of this was incredible! 5/7

[@helluvaboss_tv]

Playing this game since 2016 and for me by far the biggest struggle in wc3 is when somebody plays a non-meta strategy. In these games it's so frustrating when I see a replay where my opponent with 80 apm wins vs me while I had 250 apm (it's not useless clicks, I swear :D). The most important thing is knowing how to counter strategies in my opinion, without this micro is useless. Always fascinates how pros know a counter to every possible strat.

[@ZarkLord]

i play non meta strategy with 80 apm, and that post offend me

[@anthonypeluso3775]

This post is dangerous meta is only defined by something being the most effective strat available. Its not cheese if it works. That's like playing orc into human and calling picking paladin a cheese. Rather then accepting it was powerful because you over focus a single unit or make other mistakes people will say it's cheese so they can reason with losing to such strat. Apm hardly matters. As long as you can continue to build and produce while fighting etc your gonna be fine. Outside that apm just means unit movement. Have you ever considered you possibly over move your unit group. Such as if a headhunter is being focused it's always better to move just that unit then the whole group. Moving the entire group is a DPS loss that quickly can snowball a fight. If a rag tower push destroyed you it's not cheese rather just not understanding the proper responses. If your at 250 apm compared to a 80 apm player either your doing something wrong or making worse choices.

Cool advice. Special thanks for black background and white font ;). Actually usable for many different games.

[@jozefveselovsky9526]

Please do more of this kind of videos, because also in another areas of life man want to know how to improve yourself. Great video

[@zainshaikh527]

Prep time. Batman's superpower

[@heffalump111]

very important video! I love the general, universal advice

[@mytos1486]

This is working and not gaming for me. This is the reason why i'm watching WC3 and not playing it myself. After all those years it's absolutley fascinating to see what players can perform with those little figures. So, please, keep on playing Sire. ;-)

[@masdeyoutube7807]

And it's so hard to play vs old players when u r new. And this is an old game everybody is a veteran

[@ivanatotra]

i just beat an easy computer at slow speed and ive never felt more alive. now i feel like i have some purpose. Thank you so much Grubby :)

[@nitsuj1001]

Still have nightmares of this easu cpu beating me all the time 18 years ago

[@pochibro4965]

But if this is too hard, remember there is always the easy pz Coil+Nova insta win tactic!

[@faurion]

lmao the end

All data ruined - "epic music starts playing"

Music tutorial stopped

[@oceanblu3]

What the f?

[@ResidentEvilNostalgia]

What happened at the end was: (I believe) he pressed Ctrl+A and backspace, or delete.

[@storm0fnova]

Fantastic Video. I think everyone freezes in fights if they don't have a plan and is just reacting, there are too many things going on, and we aren't even playing starcraft. But having a strategy a battle plan going into fights is very important. so you don't hesitate and waste time in decision making. you have a list of prioritized triggers and actions, and basically execute like a machine to your best ability.

[@beowolf4572]

7:55 for the best part 😂🤣😂 Grubby's finest moment

[@CerraEquus]

luckily there was later a screenshot but grubby didnt really needed it anymore - his task was already complete :-)

[@TTomni]

Invaluable! Thank you so much Grubby you are the best :).

[@nissemann]

thanks for the video, ending was the best part

[@beowolf4572]

I struggle against mass air, especially in team games. My mass AA units get picked off fast and I've tried mass wind riders but it's usually 50/50 win against mass air.

[@HectorDiez]

Awesome video Grubby, ty so much!

[@attention_shopping]

would love to save/load but AI sucks. it'd be great to have a custom map like CS Demolition mode where two players have 'equivalent' random armies and fight over and over

[@slushyjones4939]

A fun custom game called Micro Arena lets you create small armies of equal supply and fight against each other. It's a great way to explore certain unit combinations and help with micro

[@teutonicknight452]

Thx so much bro im night elf player and as we know nf need a lot of micro thx

[@ЮраСоколов-е6р]

hi, is there a video telling how you distributed the buttons to control the troops?

[@Tondadrd]

To make a control group, press ctrl+1, or ctrl+2 and so on. To select it press 1, or 2 and so on. Grubby has the control groups visualised just above the info bar in his games (some kind of extension). This is for audience to see what control groups is he using. Did I answer your question?

[@ЮраСоколов-е6р]

@@Tondadrd

[@ЮраСоколов-е6р]

@@Tondadrd almost, but how to quickly make a teleport or spell or other action? it seems that there are special programs for programming buttons.

[@L30B055]

We need this! It may show his control groups but it doesnt show the reasoning and the control groups seem to change often within the game!

[@hommhommhomm]

I wish i saw this 10 years ago

[@fatimaWr2]

It's the same thing for all areas of training. Once you go through to be extreamly good at one thing, and then if you're gonna learn another thing you be unstoppable because you know mind stuffs that others simply don't know.

[@TTomni]

This is AWESOME!

1. Be Grubby

How to take all the fun out of the game 101

[@WisdoomOperational]

that's fun AFTER the fun

[@HighLanderPonyYT]

It might not be fun at first but it could be more fun than randomly doing stuff once you mastered the concepts.

[@MarvinTabingo-gd7fx]

🤣🤣 imagine ur playing orc ryt now🤣🤣 and wen u command me ill reply ALL RIGHT🤣🤣 READY TO WORK🤣🤣

[@MarvinTabingo-gd7fx]

Imagine iv alrdy watched all ur videos🤣🤣🤣

[@daniilivanov7052]

As a new player, i disagree wth this prep stuff. What you really should be focusing on is just using everything you have and it doesnt really matter in which order. Generally i feel like the best advice in any rts for the new player is just to DO stuff, never stand still, always creep/macro etc and i think it applies to fights too. After a few games you will start to intuitively understand what to prioretize. Generally, Heroes come first, then spellcasting with units and saving vulnerable units. If you are new, you already have trouble pressing buttons fast enough, and overthinking an encounter (even prior to the actual game) would only slow you down even more. You just need to press every button at your disposal and dont hyperfocus on one thing. After the fight/game you can analyze what you did wrong and come up with a solution. After a certain amount of taking a note at each mistake, it would pop up in your head during the game and you'll have an opportunity to avoid it. Basically, what im saying is prioretize improving playing fast vs playing smart. Ofc, Grubby's advice is very good for more advanced players, who already have enough muscle memory to act fast.

[@fatimaWr2]

Haha. That's why the pros improvement curve sky rockets through time and yours nearly flat. And you come back thinking they're so talented and you're just mediocore and let me just play it for fun.
