[@ogaday4831]

Please do more of this, I learn more by watching you commeting the mistakes of the amateurs players.

[@_PEEN1E]

Absolutely loving this Bronze league having Grubby comentate and laugh at the mistakes that "these people" and I regularly make 🤣🤣

[@eugenelum4415]

Yes!

[@Dantarn]

An underrated quality of this kind of series is that it helps keep newer players playing the game because the off chance of having your game casted by a former pro player and pillar of the game's community is pretty great

[@bontmeister6724]

This deserves more likes. 100% true.

[@matthias1991]

yeah man the w3champions noob community is so small that I have high hopes on being featured in one of the upcoming videos.

[@TheVanillatech]

Brings a tear to my eyes remembering Huskys hilarious series back in the day... I was young. Had hair. Lead in my pencil and a sparkle in my eye!

[@keithperry1641]

Huskys bronze league hero’s were so much fun to watch

[@TheVanillatech]

@@keithperry1641 Amazing, back in the day. Literally be laughing out loud watching them. Such a shame what happened with him.

[@keithperry1641]

I didn’t know anything happened to him. Hope he is ok

[@GaleStream]

@@keithperry1641 I don't like to discuss or get into drama online, so I only have some cursory knowledge. But without going into details, Husky's for all intents and purposes moved on from his Starcraft casting days, and controversially basically burned all his past bridges and expunged his videos. He made a huge U-Turn in his content and basically decided to erase his Starcraft days, which a lot of people thought was a slap in the face to his own legacy - and apparently was quite thorny when asked about it. You can dig more into it if you're into it, but it's not something I personally know about - or admittedly care to learn more. As far as I'm concerned, he chose to pivot and move on from the past, however incendiary his methods, it's his own choice.

[@TheVanillatech]

@@keithperry1641 Yeah, he gave up making amazing Starcraft content, travelling the country to cast his favourite video game, and a huge and devout fanbase .... for making cupcakes and bleaching his hair. Gave up SC entirely. Even deleted his videos.

[@simeontodorov8657]

Man I just learned about formation movement :D Was wondering why my units behave like this sometimes. Please do more of those explanation videos. I think it will help beginners like me greatly!

[@VanRukh]

YES YES YES YES YES I AM ALL FOR WC3 BRONZE LEAGUE HEROES!

[@vladids2375]

LETSGOOOOOO

[@quitte1505]

lol the Enthiasm is REAL REAL REAL REEAL YEYEESYEEYEY

[@filipmagiera2073]

This promises to be a nice series, and it is also opened by my game (maGr). For me it was a bomb because, for example, I had no idea that unit formation had an impact on movement. Also a nice lesson for me 😉 thx Grubby

[@W1337M]

Pro attitude there mate! Keep it. Pozdrawiam 😊

[@gpeterson2900]

Very comedic and genuinely supportive casting. Bronze league heroes is great!

[@ambion19]

Grubby will you cast a BLH match 100% like it's a pro match, and tell us how every move and decision is actually an example of high level thinking and execution.

[@pavelbelov9957]

This is really funny and epic in the same time!!!

[@friskydrinklunkybank1108]

Now that's a title I haven't heard or read in a long time

[@mcdog1117]

I miss the good ol' days. Huskystarcraft was an icon. A shame he went to the extremes

[@renzuki5830]

Its kind of interesting how good the lowest ranked players are in a game that is this old relatively speaking. E.g. they are all aware of the (hero) meta, know some efficiency tricks, base layouts are looking okay etc. They clearly all watched some pro games / have spent some time outside the game. If you'd look at AoE4 or something people wouldn't even know how many villagers are supposed to be on gold for age up and place buildings in random positions.

[@ambion19]

This isnt the blizzard hosted servers remember, so the skill floor here likely starts a little higher than you might expect

[@renzuki5830]

@@ambion19 True, that does skew it. Still I find the idea intriguing that if the game released yesterday these players would probably be in the top 30% or so with their gameplay. (That being "meta" vs no one knows what they are doing)

[@mikecoleman1927]

Love this. I've always loved the idea of, "you don't fail, you learned how not to do it." Beginners are ripe for learning from, because of all the mistakes they make. You get to see the errors play our real time, and how they compound into late game

[@pavelyanenko5110]

Dear Grubby, I didn't I was one of the first victims of your bronze players jorney!) I consider it a great luck to get some feedback from you. Thanks! I learnt a lot from you in particular. My main is hum tho. Never miss your videos, like what you do. Kiss Logan for me❤ It was a pleasure, Rohan

[@muhammadaiman728]

❤❤

[@Yilty]

Grubby Low Elo Legends, I am here for it

[@trunnellstaverntales6228]

Ive been watching pretty religiously, but this is my favorite content so far. Being a returning nostalgia player and becoming a bronze league champion myself its great to watch high level commentary of low level games. Its actually more entertaining than the high level games, as the variety and mistakes makes for a truly unpredictable game that I can also relate to. More of this please!

[@parawtf]

At this lvl it seems like a good idea to supply block yourself at 50 population just to be safe.

[@Maxmilian.Artistry]

More of this! Learning so much from this concept, youre killing it grubby

[@Kawabongahlive]

Do more of these grubby!! I loved your casting of it!! Congrats on the wins to the players we saw.

[@nikossnx6957]

Yeah this was really cool to watch. I'd love to see more of this :)

[@catto3924]

What makes this so entertaining is its unpredictsble 😂😂

[@torres3359]

I like the cool teacher politeness of Grubby: Sees you doing everything wrong but doesn't gets mad

[@user-el5zc9jk7p]

3:15 this is how the ancient thank the wisps for repairing him lmao

[@novatwist5816]

I saw Lowko doing this in SC2 and thought this would be a good idea to try in WC3. Glad you made it true

[@Wuh1988]

Yeah, Huskystarcraft had one hell of a thing going with bronze league heroes. I hardly ever watch starcraft anymore since he retired from casting. Thankfully Lowko brought it back and even some of the other sc creators have dabbled a bit in it, but it will never be the same as Husky, just glad they're carrying on where he left off.

[@Amoeby]

​@@Wuh1988 who the heck is huskystarcraft? I've heard the term BLH only on Winter's channel.

[@Araclain]

@@Amoebyhe did the original series of Bronze League Heroes in WoL and HotS. He was a streamer and caster who did Blizzard games.

[@MetaCzech]

Casting low league matches is refreshing and you pointing out the mistakes is educating. Thank you, please more of this

[@Weaponer7]

As a returning player, i learned more about micro and macro from this video than all of grubbys guides. Sometimes you need to watch what players are NOT supposed to do rather than play perfect. Its hard to emulate what grubby does.

[@jgcobb79]

Man. This is like Jenkins doing Herald games but none of us are laughing cause Grubby is so nice and WC3 is so much harder than Dota. Great series

[@MarcEmvy]

It's G to the Rubby. Grubby here! I'm all for it!

[@CrzyLion]

Huskies bronze league heroes used to be one of my fav playlists. Lets go grubtor.

[@comrex100]

yeah, I loved them so much

[@ernestomarcos0103]

One really cool thing is that maGr did a lot of things he clearly learned from the pros (AoW creeping, dropping items to optimize healing, even forgetting to pick up tomes) with obviously worse micro and macro but still managed to win, thus he can infer that the strategies work so he can keep getting better at them. Cool game.

[@Eckilisk]

Never had so much fun watching grass grow and exploring how they could be better.

[@markrik1]

G to the rubby Grubby!

[@stonywings5888]

Love this, and absolutely want to see more of it! Such a unique viewing experience

[@Micha-qv5uf]

The tomes break me really. Especially in the first game he had an intelligence and an agility hero and he found an intelligence and an agility tome and left both of them on the map. It gives me goosebumps xD

[@Dreadlorder97]

Yes more commentary of low elo pls! Very fun and entertaining

[@kddanstars9288]

that was so enjoyable! more please!

[@BreezyTechin]

I've been trying to get back into WC3 and honestly, watching some people around my level with you giving advice was actually super helpful in learning some problem areas that low level players might not think of.

[@sereneyeti3680]

I love it, as Gruby says "They probably forget tombs less..." The dude proceeds to forget his tomb 🤣

[@rupertgerle2370]

Now this is the content I have been waiting for, scrappy gameplay are the best

[@planetary-rendez-vous]

Grubby after watching 2 drunken kids fight : GREAT NEW HOBBY

[@karoljabonski6772]

OMG Grubby, I can't even begin to explain how good of an idea this is! I learn so much about the game this way, and it isn't so intimidating as the actual gameplay! Thank you Grubby, you've provided us thousands of hours of entertaiment and somehow you keep setting the bar higher and higher. I wish you well

[@andriyzabavskyy4707]

I liked a lot this video. Very cool to see actual low level gameplay and learn from it

[@imamoronhehe8522]

Definitely do more of this, love this especially for the commentary

[@Yuyumaccie]

T90, Lowco and now Grubby... my low elo legends watch list keeps growing hell yeah!

[@brianrice4102]

This is great! Please do more of these. Brings me back to 2003 Thank you for acknowledging pros missing the tomes I see it in your videos and it makes me question my reality like how are they not seeing it? Clearly not staring at the camps, but it drives me nuts every time

[@peterspodniak9364]

I was playing w3 on and off since I was a kid, sometimes even doing ranked games with a a nice winrate, yet I never knew about formation toggle, my life is forever changed for the better now

[@Dekaide44]

This is awesome. Please do this all the time

[@wisconsinengines]

I spent the summer of 2012 at my aunts house watching every single episode of bronze league heroes and funday monday after discovering sc2. Very fond and nostalgic memories, watching wc3 these past few weeks has made me think of that time in my life almsot daily, and this feels like a step in a great direction. I hope this series keeps going, maybe i'll improve my 12% wr quickly enough to never be in it

[@HighLanderPonyYT]

"I unlocked a new hobby." lulw

[@garagavia]

This is really great to watch, thanks for doing these Grubby 💖

[@_Pikahiiri_]

This is super interesting. I think I actually find this more entertaining than high-level play due to all of the small (and large) mistakes involved on every side vs the random high-level minutia that some people inexplicably know

[@gelzaros9424]

Oh I love this new series! It makes me wanna play some more even though i'm not that good.

[@j-rod4600]

This is great and more my speed! I'll never be at your level, but I can hang with these legends! Makes me want to play online

[@SpaghettiNoob]

The commentary is so superb!

[@ffarkasm]

Deep in our hearts we are all Bronze League Heroes.

[@kevingause9526]

Gotta do more of these

[@BeautynSpace]

to be honest it's really fun to watch unpredictable non-pro games with a great observer hope this will be some kind a new serial content also it would be great to see more ffa games for the same reasons thank u Grubby

[@MittensOnly]

More more more! This is giving me confidence to actually play the game 😃

[@W1337M]

Killer idea. Please make it a series! ❤

[@Vince-tt1uj]

I just want to comment that this is amazing format

[@hipno12]

Few days ago I actually wanted to suggest you watching replays of lower rank players (such as myself). I see you read my mind :D Anyway, this is really helpful, many times you do not realize the mistakes youre making until someone points it out. Do more please :) Help us noobs get better, so maybe one day we can face you on ladder :D

[@christopher2666]

Could you do a video about "The Cube"? It was an old strategy back in the old days of Warcraft 3 where you would get three human heroes, creep fast, expand to a second gold mine, and build a 5x5 Tower cube there and then Rush the opponent with your heroes waiting for him to attack your cube. There was even a guild called "TeH CuBe". Thank you!!!

[@edwingonzalez48]

Literally had never heard about the formation movement until now

[@injokerthejoker7154]

Please do more of these videos

[@ArrowKid]

Love this format! Because you know all of this Players actually are interested in the community and likely will know about meta - why else will they know about w3champions ladder. So the "bad" players on this ladder are actually people that invest time in the game to learn, so it's the best games to analyze what errors they make on a level ongoing after the typical tutorial videos explaining build orders and so on. So its noob level paired with a high knowledge of the game on these players, which makes this very interesting to analyze.

[@Number1139.0]

welcome back... TO BRONNNNNNZE LEAAAAAAGUE HEROOOOOOES

[@sdamer4609]

I'd say that for low-level wc3 almost all you need is just focus on your own base/resource management, tech timings and creeping. I remember myself wandering across the map with no plan, like this guy. I could have been creeping instead, which would give me experience and items. Fixing that issue helped me a lot. Both in wc3 and in LoL.

[@evoskaelthas814]

flying machines came in clutch

[@WarBob56565]

This is an awesome style of content. Would be great if this was possible on the Blizzard servers for unison.

[@KyXnline]

I'd expect a rank called "grass" to be people who literally don't know the buttons, but these guys actually seem to know the meta and have a rough starting build order. I don't play, so it probably looks way worse to others, but I'm still surprised

[@deathsromath]

I love this. It’s like weenie hut juniors for wc3. Of course I can’t even beat the normal computer but this is fun

[@ArlynDeasisN8]

Mfndang gbe sayu host ang galing nman mg explain wnglish pa

[@TimeforFantasy]

Please do more of this

[@Chajos]

if you make this a series, you could also after each game give each player like 2 things he should focus on in the future.

[@drakonli]

Nice series. Question to anyone: is there like a document or a youtube video with all the standard strategies(builds orders, populations, units quantity) for every race vs every other race?

[@FlameQwert]

bronze league heroes is one of the best formats ever

[@negihun]

How much of the quality of the games here is driven by a more competitive environment (W3C)? Fun to see low elo games, thanks for showcasing!

[@JohnnyTightIips]

Here I thought that PlikPlok had the upper hand ALL game and he left at the first sign of something going bad haha

[@MrSquigler]

This is incredibly informative! Loved the video

[@mystiosmystios2534]

Very cool video idea ! GG to the players !

[@NicanorVillanueva.]

Learning a lot with this. silver league here

[@jeppehansen16]

Reminds me of Low Elo Legends from Age of Empires 2

[@jmusic8556]

I love this series im hook to it man 😂

[@3Torts]

Just played my first 5 games and got placed in GRass 1 :D Watching some of my peers. LOL

[@igorignaz5319]

finally a chance i appear in grubby videos yeah :D

[@alrightylol]

I think like all sc2 anouncers used idea to watch bronze/silver players for fun :D Entertaining ^^

[@SolusBatty]

Looking forward to ep2!

[@ngsteve2173]

This is great content. Great way for noobs like me to learn. Please cast low level plays more often.

[@brave1988brave]

I always forgot all kind of production in my base while I was creeping or fighting the enemy... But I will always remember how in a 3v3 on a LAN party with my friends I was the only one left very early and played so long with my OP human heroes the other 3 man team gave up 😂

[@Camponotus100]

champions is really cool with all that features. i totally share your opinion and experience. in my case, the games were wow, wot and a browser game. so my first situation were i thought, that to take over a pros meta, was in wow. it was a desaster^^ but its still happening in actual games or in classic. people are trying to be better or to look informed/important by having the meta skilltree or playstyle, but cant do it. they triy it without the right items (exspecially weapon^^) ect. there are a lot of cases, where players are more efficient, better or just having more fun when they play like they want or are capable of. and over time these pick up details, getting used to strategies and can do more stuff. in world of tanks i remember the guys who didnt know about passive scouts^^ other player were pushing them out, because there "werent" scouing to their opinion :D but the problem in most of cases is, that you cant argue/discuss with them, like in wc3 ladder too. like in one of the last videos. i only watch sc2 and wc3 from pros when they do funny or complete different stuff. the opponent things about "shitty strat, learn toplay ect" but the pro is so good, that es bored or good enough to even win with normally crap stuff :D and in their rage they argue that they would have won when grubby had played meta? really? or in sc2 when beasty or thermal do these funny things, its awesome. some of these funny stuff need so much micro and practice (of course knowledge) and map/enemy awareness, that most shouldnt even think about to try tht^^

[@huntergamer8045]

as a nub who just started ranked your videos are very helpfull thanks 👍

[@yuukiritotrinh6567]

All roads lead to this huh. I have also watched Herald Review by Jenkins and Viewers submitted matches by Lowko TV. Easy but fun content.

[@SarahAltezia]

Watching this is both interesting and informative, but also just so, SO demotivating... the lowest rank in W3C just seems 100x more competent than my level, no wonder when I played there I had a 1-27 w/l rate.. and the win coming from someone who pity quitted.. BNet is somewhat better but queues take forever and often just end up putting me against someone who's a lot better =/

[@Domebuddy]

The kinds of players that would even get involved with something like W3C is already significantly ahead of beginners. These players are obviously not beginners. It wouldnt surprise me if these 1000 MR players have played warcraft 3 for over 10 years now. So don't get discouraged losing to anyone using W3C. Just watch your own replays and reflect on what you can improve in your own game, rather than beating yourself up over losing.

[@Darkness_7193]

They are definitely not begginers. You can watch some sc2 bronze heroes to return self-confidence :D

[@SarahAltezia]

@@Darkness_7193 SC2 BLH is definitely a lot more enjoyable for me in terms of entertainment value, mainly cause I'm, depending on race, high Plat to mid Diamond, so I feel like I understand a lot of the mistakes made better and don't have to feel so bad about myself :c

[@AsahiKuro]

I actually recommended this series for you Grubby. It's great to see you doing it. I want more of these series to come, in order to improve at this game i think this is essential. You can't know how to improve without knowing what mistakes you are doing. And bronzes makes a lot of mistakes.

[@tobiasfunke8967]

Thanks captain 😂

[@pixartist8190]

finally a game slow enough for my brain

[@pawelrogowski4193]

I always have a feeling that i haven't played this game in so long that everyone playing will be so much better than me, that's why i never went back, but now i might try to play a little bit ;)

[@jeremys.8607]

We want to see more! 😊

[@juliasconnection1153]

Riveting content :)) good job man!!

[@Supev_]

It’s Grubby very own low rank series this will be great.

[@sniperdubey]

There is a reason T90 does LEL games (Low ELO legends) for AoE2 They're just so fun.

[@kurzackd]

the UD in the first game *DEFINITELY* had some LAG / ping issues. Otherwise the DK loss at the end can't be explained, as well as several earlier events. Would have been nice by G to point that out !! :P .
