Day9 was talking about unit upgrades during one of his starcraft streams last week. He made the case that it adds more strategic depth by changing the calculus around who wins a fight. I.e. zealots v zerglings, where having a +1 attack uograde cuts the number if hits to kill from 3 to 2. I feel like it also adds an element of uncertainty that creates more room for strategic error and uncertainty, which is what makes a game more satisfying in the long run and at a more middling skill level.

[@Jurrian9189]

Now that you've played some W3C games as well, It made me realize how huge of a gap there is between Bnet and W3C. Most supposed high MMR Bnet players look like NPCs compared to mid MMR WC3 players. I really appreciate you playing one W3C as well as those games are actually challenging and you shows alot of cool micro stuff.

[@carlosmontiel7078]

Oh yeah man, that's another level!!! But grubby has rivals either Bnet and W3C, i've seen a lot of good matches on Battlenet!! but most good matches are on W3C, so intense when you see how they are destroying grubby, (I am always team grubby) Like wtfffff he wont do it!!

Lord of the Rings Battle For Middle Earth 2 has an interesting mechanic of having units (squads of units) have direct unit upgrades. You research upgrades and can min-max strategies around when to get certain upgrades to quickly empower certain units against the enemy. These upgrades are usually semi-universal, such as a blade upgrade goes to all swordsmen and halberds or axemen, but you have to upgrade the unit to have those swords. Units also get direct upgrades from combat experience. So if they kill an entire enemy unit, they can level up from Level 1 to 2, and get a base upgrade of acquiring a bannerman (which regenerates health and unit numbers). Otherwise, you can research Banner Carriers, and upgrade a unit with a banner, upping them to level 2. So you get units up to Level 5, giving them combat experience giving them extra damage, speed, health, armor, and regen, with the ability to research further and give them further upgrades. Dawn of War also has similar mechanics with leveling up units. You can level up a squad from four to eight men, equipping them with different, empowered weapons along the way, giving them better armor piercing, or burst or AoE damage. You can also give certain squads a hero unit, acting as an additional unit to the squad, but with special abilities and enhancements for them. You can get a squad of Las-cannon and Flamer wielding Guardsmen with a Commissar leading them giving them extra resistances, a Harlequin leading a group of sniper-wielding Warp Singers to make them faster and have a healing ability, etc. If I recall depending on the game they also have raw unit upgrades for armor and certain weapons, so you could upgrade the penetration or take reduced damage from certain weapons on certain units. The Total War series pretty much has only units, some of which are relatively direct upgrades, but all fill their unique role. Like other Craft games, this mostly comes down to their rock-paper-scissors-ability and cost to make/keep/heal. There are militia, which are great for numbers, but pathetically weak compared to their direct upgraded counterparts. But with a few buffs, and the right army composition, the numbers are so affordable and the army is devastating. Some have guns over bows but aren't capable of barraging an enemy as effectively over a wall or group of heavily armored units that absorb the pellets. Some horsemen beat some cavalry, but that cavalry unit can can just run through anything that's not a spear. A catapult beats everything that doesn't move, so all you need is a wall of stone or shields (unless the enemy also has a catapult). One unit can both defeat most other units in melee 1v3, with the ability to also use ranged attacks against another unit, but it costs 10x the upkeep and takes so long to heal, it could be worth it to just make another unit and disbanding the old one. I find that, while personally it is a bit overwhelming as a newer player, the greater options and additional layers of ability make the game so much more interesting and fun. A hell of a lot harder to balance and not create meta strats. But I can appreciate, and I see a lot of variation in something like LotR:BFME2, where you can see some games go on for hours without some of these obvious, empowering upgrades. The Gondor Archers are one of the strongest units due its cheap cost, quick build, moderate health and decent damage output, but tourneys make them look like paper cutouts due to the skill ceiling of manipulating cavalry units. tl:dr The more variation in units and upgrades, the more interesting but way more complex it gets. Games can balance this in unique ways but never there isn't "preferred" over another outside of personal taste. I personally enjoy all of them and rarely find imbalances that don't just require a tiny bit of tweaking instead major overhauls. I hope both Stormgate and Godsworn finds their balance both in mechanics and stylistically.

[@macsenhayes]

I didn't realize cleave had such a wide effect, scary!

[@mr.mystery9338]

12:30 honestly, the upgrade system i like most is the individual unit veterancy in red alert 3. Very casual friendly and you can have an elite force of commandos to hit and run with.

[@sorta-7272]

very fun game to watch, 16:00 clip was also a crazy micro if you did it intentionally, always fun to watch your stuff grubby!

[@meddle]

yep, he definitely displaced his TC with windwalking BM intentionally. he did it earlier to a grunt also at 3:07

[@dg5059]

He does this trick several times in this video actually. This is the most noticeable one but I think he went for it 3 times in total, not looking back to check, but definitely intentional

[@Number1139.0]

9:33 pretty cool carillon swarm by him actually 11:30 we can see your eyes going bot right, see "forgot rmk hero?" in chat, rmk shadow into ultimate top left check "yep it was here under my eyes"

[@XcooldereX]

"Cool carrion swarm" A-ha. Sure. And everything went to sht cuz he died with no tp/pot vs raiders. Just sad that same player could be so cool and so lame at the same time.

[@TheRealMycanthrope]

You both need to step outside for a minute. Breath the air. Touch the grass.

You made a "be-cleaver" out of me!

I'm laying in my bed today, because I got sick yesterday afternoon. I'm watching a bunch of your videos now, to keep me entertained. I just love your content Grubby. 😊

[@frenchman2874]

Same here!

[@kurzackd]

mate, are you f'in kidding me ?? I *ALSO* got VERY sick *yesterday afternoon !! :O* Really weird because I very, *VERY rarely* get sick at all, and it's *NEVER* in the _SPRING_ season... !! :O .

[@Hellwolf36]

Seeing my favorite Tavern hero being used in pro play always warms my heart.

[@pitmclord]

3:26 that was a bit aggressive. He means in your ranking vs common perception who is most underrated. He doesn’t need to rate them first for it to be a valid question

[@beridledodopidop4822]

Grubby is weird like that sometimes

[@ProfKisuto]

I couldn’t tell if he was joking or not lol

[@TheRealMycanthrope]

Aggressive? How? In what universe?

Healing Wave works the same as Shadow Wave in DotA from Dazzle Fatal Bonds (from Warlock from DotA) is more like the Spirit Link from the Spirit Walkers of Warcraft.

[@slimjim665]

Is t the age of empires upgrades also 3 of each? Starting with feudal age, castle age, imperial. Most infantry cavalry archers all have three of each attack and defense. Some civilizations are left without the final upgrades for certain unit types for balance and variety.

[@kurzackd]

3:25 -- imho it was *apm70, aka Deadman a.k.a. Andrey Sobolev* Guy was HUGELY talented, and *NATURALLY* too -- he literally played THE LEAST on bnet, out of all then-pros. Almost no practice -- but STILL *HUGE RESULTS !! :O* Problem was -- he never COULD get over his attitude issues and bouts of real-life aggression and bad manner. *RIP, sweet Prince, 1988 -- 2009 !!: (* . More candidates in the same vein would be players like ElakeDuck, Creolophus, this Danish night elf whos name eludes me right now... ThomasG, I think ? HasuObs too. :P .

[@ilyamoskalev4nko676]

Sometimes pitlord just break faces, and i love to see it

[@randomamerican8236]

At 13:30 how did he know to move his Tauren Chieftan directly into the spot he was going to TP? Did he just guess their positioning on the TP?

[@AceVenturaWhenNatureCalls]

[@arigatoBama]

Such quirky creeping hehe

[@Juma_uy]

16:00 did the tc got clipped?

[@MondSemmel]

I think the idea is that Blademaster has no collision while windwalking, but gains a collision effect when exiting windwalk. So when he exits Windwalk he can displace whatever he was standing on. And since the TC was tightly surrounded, the closest spot for the TC to be displaced to was outside of the surround.

[@dark3031]

It's one of the fancy micro that Orc pro players usually do when one of their unit get surrounded.

[@Shevros_Mage]

You need to know, even if you accept them, because they might be Night Elf.

[@SwabcraftCreates]

The SC2 Upgrades for attack and damage I think are too much. They change unit time to kill too much, sometimes allowing even units to become complete slaughters such as +1 zealots vs zerglings. Additionally, they heavily lock in a tech tree path. Can't make a carrier switch in sc2 against that bio-army, even if it was 90% marauders because the 3/3 means low damage, and the units that die get replaced by a counter that is vastly better than base. Warcraft 3 is better, where it is percent damage increase and reduction, not as impactful and a lot more boring. Kinda would rather it be removed in both games, but the SC2 version I think makes the game worse. I'd rather micro and unit composition be the deciding factor in a win rather than If I time it for this upgrade finishing my army that was even with theirs now slaughters theirs.
