I get a taste of GIGA LATE GAME Direct Strike! - WC3

[@gaeBBs]

Please more Direct Strike! Amazing game mode 😊

[@dpend]

It really is, I started playing the SC2 version of it since seeing Grubby’s stream (since WC3 Mac version is broken by Blizzard in the latest patch) 😂

[@SCARaw]

I have enough

[@mardakfernfern1986]

I surprised myself that i watched throught the whole video without skipping any seconds

[@BGTS1999]

Agreed, love it

[@matyascsoti4400]

wish they added neutrals too, to increase the variety

[@popeneiad7968]

Ah, we got him boys. He’s hooked. He ain’t EVER leaving the Direct Strike now

[@Memphisko]

like.. dota? :D just kidding.

[@popeneiad7968]

@@Memphisko I’ll be different this time. Surely he won’t get bored

[@paulandreig.sahagun34]

Its lile playing DOTA, but you're the A.I in reversed cowboy.

[@dipperpines7926]

I love watching big armies collide. Please upload more of these games!

[@Tichooon]

13:30 I love that insano style is actually catching on in some niche parts of the internet hehehe

[@gabrielgaldino6309]

grubby: expends 600 gold on mine 2 and 3 also grubby: 'How is his army so powerful?' maybe because he has 600 more gold invested in units

[@dougler500]

Dude I am so hooked on these Direct Strike videos... Please keep going with them!

[@DavidAguilar02]

It is awesome seeing Grubby have fun and also be challenged

[@aurorasun-qs1pg]

I like how in the Warcraft version you get random units, It's not like starcraft you build the same units every game

[@justanobody0]

it's kind of funny, Grubby looked down upon us warcraft3 custom gamer plebs and now he has become the thing he once scorned :P I think post competitive wc3 gamer days, he eventually played dota and league (which are based off a wc3 custom game) and now he's playing a reforged custom game (honestly no problem with it, custom games can be fun, and when Grubby was competitively playing wc3 they were fun then)

[@VanRukh]

1:33 Left side curse 😂

[@alcbaz]

THIS WAS ACE! More of these grubby

[@Towelgravy]

i remember this strategy. It was the hail mary strategy in hero wars. If you built a gold mine and DIDN'T get selected to play in the first duel, you basically won. If you spent your gold on a mine instead of resources and DID get into the duel, you were half crippled from the start. It was always a gamble.

[@salnoeun4343]

Druids + any t1 ranged is OP. The roar burns enemy dispel and rejuv keeps them, front liners and heros alive. At t3 they are awesome front lines. Shaman for the ranged and talons/banshees for debuff

[@SuperMinecraft567]

can't wait to run into you playing direct strike lol

[@ZeroFate643]

Tornado looks awful in this. Pretty much saves your opposing units and then drops them onto your back line.

[@newwonderer]

but can slow your own army to form big army with next player to make big wave

[@MasterMonk]

@@newwonderer maybe if it works out right but all I saw this game was they were winning and tornado dude just split his army and gave fought the next army with half over and over

[@DiamondFPS]

Amazing custom map. Ngl grubby you should play more of these for the more casual players / viewers, if you have time of course. Regardless, peak content as always. Cheers.

[@redgalaxy5199]

Idk how much it is exactly like the strike from SC2 but usually you don't go more than one mine before destroying the bunker. In SC2 the middle is worth 2 goldmines for every player. The first mine takes 6 min to pay back it's cost, 2nd takes 7.5, 3rd 10 and lastly 4th takes 12.5. (Early mine puts you behind for a while and can snowball to be worse). It is usually better to delay the first 2 goldmines to gain middle which is worth the same but also for your teammates. Killing bunker gives you gold in SC2 which is usually enough to safely invest in ur first mine

[@jinxhijinx1768]

"I thought you didn't like custom games?" "so did I." Real

[@BGTS1999]

Awesome Grubby, love your usual stuff, especially FFA, but this custom game feels so fresh. Especially because you're not so OP due to your skill level like in the normal competitive games, so it's like you're just a regular dude playing these custom games except you have chat to give ideas and your natural smarts. Very cool, please keep up playing this game mode 🙏

[@Novocane23]

I'd imagine casters are always really good in this type of auto-battler because there is no way to target fire them, you -have- to fight front to back to get to them. Which is why games like Auto-Chess / Underlords have units with the 'Assassin' Type that jump to the back line. Grubby / Harstem / Soda Direct Strike Team when?? Fun fact, since your bathroom break seems to have sparked a discussion - Soap, does not primarily kill germs; it disrupts their ability to adhere to surfaces like your hands - causing them to drop off as you rinse. Now, it does disrupt the cellular membrane over time, but the friction and hot water from rubbing your hands together speeds this up. In fact, only rinsing with hot water + rubbing your hands together has a similar affect. Using soap just increases that affect.

[@ericshun3331]

air skips over melee and goes for casters

[@gavinriley]

Lets see Paul allen’s grommash made me die laughing

[@paulandreig.sahagun34]

Its the best meme card in the video.

[@Arbeta10000]

1:35 Little known fact: WC3 uses RNG for the speed of each autoattack that a unit does (or perhaps it is the speed at which damage is applied? It's been years since I learned this). They did it so that in situations such as that one, one unit will always kill the other. There's an option to disable it in the editor, but it's quite well hidden 😅

[@Runelored]

I was just looking for this, and watched an old pala rambo. I suggest trying it again, with human only. Pala peasants knights foots. I think it could be hilarious, and slightly more possible.

[@Seki1987]

That guy with Tornado was TK'ing the second game

[@ryjbritton]

Thanks Grubby! You got me addicted to this game now.

[@SulFur345]

Would love to see some more custom maps on your channel!

[@nillk2168]

42:30 you fought with 1,5 armies and still beat 75% of them, it's was good actually

[@catbert7]

Can't wait for "1 Hero Only, No Army, Direct Strike" 🙃

[@ondori5509]

This map slaps. And with Grubby it’s even better

[@oscarl.3563]

"Do I have anti-air?" Yes, you got demon hunter. Just get orb.

[@blinkanddie3397]

Yaaaaay. I was so hoping it would be more of this

[@cynnthiamorris214]

I have watched about 1700 of your wc3 videos and never heard you curse until now.

[@tradingcory1966]

these direct strike wc3 custom map games are quite entertaining. thanks

[@REgamesplayer]

Jeez, that Tyrande is absolutely broken.

[@GatingHeadlamp]

Great series! Love Direct Strike

[@whoopwhoop90]

After I've watched this video I was eager to try it out myself only to find out I can't launch W3 due to some bug since the latest patch (I am a Mac user). Thank you Blizzard!

[@stanislavgdovin3247]

The third gold mine was the MVP

[@yolo1up]

As someone who has played direct strike (starcraft2) for years Dota2 and sc2 for a decade+ w3 for 2 decades next year : Did Direct strike started as a mod of w3 too? (as same as every tower defence, Dota/lol/mobas ) P.s. Grubby if you read this try Lordaeron Strike in SC2 arcade i feel it way funnier/fresh than direct strike(wc3)... you can even play with/agaisnt sc2 different difficulties IAs with 5 w3 races

[@KagamiGaming]

happy to see you discovering something new within the game for yourself. as someone who enjoys both melee and custom maps, its nice to have someone enter the " scene " for the lack of better word. so fun to see you discover, learn and figure out the little ins and outs. i started like 3 days before i saw your first video of this, so its double interesting to see the different approaches.

[@vanceclemens9934]

All that gold wasted on tier 1 units during late game hurts to watch.

[@XRCADIA]

In SC2 Direct strike the rule of thumb is a 3rd mine after you destroy the bunker and if you turn off auto cast in the AI you can micro the spells.

[@iisan9519]

driving me crazy you didnt buy mines

[@Louciferrr]

Love you grubby

[@rev9115]

I dont play the game, but people are not doing enough tempo control or if any...if your allies has potential to stack you should donate them gold to build more tanks especially MGs instead of spending gold on bad tanks

[@victornguyen1175]

It's just weird to me that a man can spend so much of his life decisively stating that stuff like this just "isn't his thing" and very quickly finds that it definitely is. He also spent a lot of time looking down on Custom Games for not being officially supported. It's good to see that Grubby's opening up to different styles of games, but equally frustrating knowing it's been around this whole time and he's only discovering it now.
