Teleport is just a game changer for the elf. You can literally see the tables turn in the game as soon as NE starts teleporting Demon back to base to replenish HP.

Woah such a nice move to devour the unit he wanted to teleport xD I know that you clicked the devour and selected the unit already before the tely came up, but still just such a nice coincidence to watch. That slow Kodo was just at the right place at the right time, came in really handy. A pity the map isn't bigger so this would have mattered more :D Also that influx of dryads to that same long ongoing fight is something different. He really lost some advantage when he did that bad TP bargain attacking into your base with reinforced burrows while you had a free go at his expo with raiders. I wondered however how you would fare with 1-2 demolishers to target groups of dryads or ensnared ones. Great job by him for keeping that pressure up so much although he got beat quite a few times.

Think the key would had been to hold on his east flank after the 1st expo kill. And press from onto him from there once the shop and tower were up. Still fantastic match, love to see you go into these more serious battles. Keep up the great content Grubby! :)

He built lumber mill so far that they turn it into hall. He does the things he makes fun of bronze for all the time

I was thinking if Grubby was so sure Sonik would do the Immolation harass, why not build his first burrow next to the gold line? He managed the harass but it would be even better if peons could just run straight into burrow when hurt

That thumbnail reminded me of Apex Legends. Bloodhound was one of my favorite characters and go to characters during high levels of competition depending on patches. I dont play it anymore. A Bloodhound quote I liked, " Everyday is a new victory ". The constant state of " hunting " and being " hunted " while playing that game for 8,9,10+ hours a day for years did a number. Easily healed. I like Sonik. Reminds me of Sonic the Hedgehog. Sonic the Hedgehog on the Sega Genesis 🎮💙.

Countering dryads with raiders is fun, but you need to have a lot of them. It is much easier to counter with headhunters - they, like raiders, are a natural antidote in terms of armor/damage types, but are not so vulnerable to knitting. Dryads are the lousiest of all formally "combat" units. They have barely 2 food stats for a 3 food unit. I think unupgraded dryad can lose to the level 2 serpent ward. If you don’t expose your army to dryads strengths and tricks, if you make meaningless their knitting and dispell, then dryads almost useless on the battlefield.

You should have expanded too. Idk why you didnt even

Going back to the advice Razermoon gave you to make an expo at 40ish pop. You have maybe a small power spike. Towers can really save you against those dryads. And then with raiders you can lame down his expo. That's the advantage you have. Otherwise against someone who can staff his heroes and moon juice them. How do you win several fights in a row to wear them down? You don't.

So they're a hard army to fight into when you're doing a raider build. But dryads can't kill fortified armour well at all, so why fight the enemy where they are effective. Speed scrolls and town portals are worth getting moonwells killed, especially if pillage is helping recoup the hit and run costs. Even if you can't do hard damage, forcing the elf on base defense opens up orc's opportunity to expand with less threat

Sonic had the economic lead, mining some extra gold which translated into more dryads, who are quite cost effective and solid NE unit. He simply ended up peppered with spears to death. Maybe he needed a catapult or SH going snakes, because focus firing DH after he levelled up stopped working. I just feel he needed some ranged options or at least camping with that tower and shop on NE expansion spot. Raiders are good enough with siege damage vs dryads if you manage to get a critical mass of them, but Grubby started to be overwhelmed with number of dryads and couldn't keep up.

They slow you down, deal poison damage, and make investing in magic pointless. But they can be crushed if you move your mindset closer to StarCraft... Or even Red Alert. Build a large army of range units and crush them. Their tricks are meaningless if you don't play any tricks yourself.

@masterexploder9668

They are a very cost effective unit unless the enemy has plenty of piercing or siege damage to respond. Magic immune is also a nice bonus, they are very versatile and you can't really go wrong with them, especially vs Orc who is more into beefy melee units. Raiders can be a good counter to them if massed in proper amount, but they are not that easy units to use. Dryads you just A-click, try to kite and make sure you don't get bombed by mortar teams or something like that. Also NE has staff of preservation to save units/heroes for moonwell healing, I feel that also made a big difference that DH could come back in a couple of seconds with full health bar. It also seems that NE economy started to take over Grubby. DH and Keeper died a couple of times and expansion got destroyed, but Sonik eventually managed to rebuild it. To be fair he played the matchup well, so my post is not just a straight "NE is imba".

Grubby lost at 14:00.

that dh was a prick... grubby fought some fights he should have backed out of but overall outplayed. sonik + creeps in too many situations.

It's easy to say elf imba, but I don't think that's really the case here. Hard fought by both players, a good game. I wonder if one forward tower outside your base, once fortified defenses is up, is worth it? It would zone out the sieging dryads and free up mobility around the orc base, and drop any dryad ensnared in range. It seemed once they hit critical mass, there just wasnt enough orc dps to do the job anymore, especially with walkers padding out thst much needed food supply

"Bratan" is a Russian word, which means "bro". But it can mean not what it intended in context of current armed conflict. Sonik is ukrainian and saying to him Russian word can be interpreted not quite well. Mb ask him next time ukrainian analogue for this word

i play like sonik

More night elf gameplay would be cool!

when grubby is fully focused his face looks a bit "orcish"

To understand Sonic, one needs to take the doppler effect into consideration😆

Wouldn't a single tower here would be more optimal in this situation? After all, you are still using money by wasting peon's time on defending. Also, you are risking them and you can screw up and let them die. A tower has a ton of DPS and it just counters it hard his strategy which allows you to do what you want while he wastes a talent point and time going to your base.

You tend to spend a lot of energy and time on fights. You keep macroing low HP units from danger and then again into battle. For me it seems that they cannot contribute much into a fight. I personally would cycle them back to base. Is there a reason why you are so aggressive in a fight? When you started fighting him on a map, I would had retreated multiple times to heal up. Grubby however seems to do or die fighting. Even in fights which for me seemed he didn't had the advantage or was even at disadvantage.

that's ridiculous. Facetanking a whole base because tp back home and do it again while burning everything. And then several near army wipes???? Come on....

I do not play this game, but I wonder about strategies. I noticed that in this game it is trivial to tech up and most pro players do it. Grubby for example went straight to T2 without any units. However, my impression is that you should first to reach unit count of 40-50 before you hit upkeep. This establishes dominance and it prevents greedy plays. Only then go for upgrades and tech transition. The idea being that you replace lost units with higher tech units which you want. Preferably after forcing a fight when you have numerical advantage. Does anyone knows this game well enough to comment on such a strategy? Would work in this game or against what Grubby is doing? Btw: I did not played this game online, but in general my playstyle back then was to create a swarm with footman and Paladin healing. When I would lack surface area, I would add Rifleman. Only then I would tech up to add human casters as a support. Then again to T3 and start replacing footmen with Knights.
