This combo is freaking gold. Slacks brings the nonserious fun and Grubby's relentless positivity keeps things from tilting when the less-than-optimal instruction goes south.
One of my favorite dota memories was Slacks was in a random pub I played in 2015 I was carry Sven and I forget what hero he was but the highlight of the game was me and him dived t3s at 15 minutes to get a kill and we got the kill but both died and we both laughed maniacally over the in game mic.
Love grubby n slax:). All the coaching seshs really! Hope we get to see all of em since I can't catch streams often. Love seeing you learn and learning with you!
I need an animation of a cartoon character sitting on Grubby's shoulder, pulling his hair, voiced by Slacks. "GO! KILL! SWAPPEM! SWAPPEM! GET OUT! RUNFOYOLIFE! Ah you know, it's okay, Grubbers, you're still my favorite shoulder to sit on."
The -armor's actually really good when paired with other heroes that can reduce it like CK, Alch, or Naga. On its own you don't really notice it that much but when stacked with other reduction abilities it's almost like having a free double damage rune against the effected hero in the early stages. Also note the damage aura only scales with the white number's damage, so it's best paired with illusion or stat-heavy heroes to get the most out of it. In lane you'll sometimes see people stack it with Luna's damage aura to make last-hitting and harassment that much easier.
I was thinking idk wtf made me start commenting and liking on YT videos and I remembered….. the first combo video Slacks and Grubby did felt so genuine and I think I said that was the most exciting vid, energetic, different in a long time since I started following grubby and watching every WC3 video. Wow
Slacks: Take those last hits, quick! Slacks: Get that rune quick, just say OOPS Slacks: You're the carry now, leave those noobs Slacks: I don't TP for allies, I don't care if they die Slacks: Allies will respawn, towers won't Slacks: Go give that boy a taste of arcane boots Slacks: SWAP HIM SWAP HIM
"As long as you can keep your idiots alive by healing them longer than the other morons, eventually they're gonna hit a button on their keyboard" ROFL. Slacks is quotable.
I play venge as carry back in dota 1 where you build aquila medallion and max ur 1st and 2nd skill. You hit like a truck especially against low armor heroes
Yeah, that's how low level dota was. Since you had to depend on yourself, teamwork wasn't very common, you needed to do the disables and the damage. When people get better, and realize, that with those same skills she can enable someone who is better at dealing damage, she becomes support. Back when I started everyone played venge as carry, didn't see support venge for years.
@@raifthemad She was actually briefly a viable carry(mid and safe) for a while when her 3rd aura got reworked(must be the vengeance illusion when venge or ally hero gets killed). Not that I recall much since I was on break from Dota when it was viable.
4:47 i had a similar experience last time a played dota. I was pos 1 and all I did was hit red heathbars amd buy items. There was also pos 5 kotl, who stacked forest creeps and recalled me into teamfights - more healthbars to hit. Almost meditative experience.
Honestly, you did a stellar job, Grubby and I'm pretty impressed with Slacks' level of coaching. I'm kinda looking forward to more of these videos, even when you finish this series. Though I suppose you could just redo the entire series again... Not like there're laws against it or anything haha
38:50 "this is horrible this is bad, this is good kill them all!" it was 4 dire men diving into 5 radiant men under a tower. 5 > 4, success! Nice bravery.
slacks is right but there are heros that are very good to get the passive maxxed with - like luna - youll need to baby sit her and the auras between heros stack. good stuff there. two ranged stuns and a swap into luna ulti - dead heros all over the place.
Fun Fact: The voice over of Vengeful Spirit in DotA 1 was provided by perhaps one of the most important character in Warcraft Universe. The Dark Lady & The Leader of the Forsaken Lady Sylvanas Windrunner
When you lose to a team, with lvl3 arc warden, it's either really great enemies or really crappy teammates. Or, you know CK, that beast can carry low level games all by himself. Like you said, no shard on dazzle, so CK could pretty much solo your team.
@@thyred3167 Yeah, but when there is a lvl3 hero in the enemy team, with 19 deaths. You have to have something wrong with your own team, if you can't take 5v4, especially with such great feed.
slacks is the god of pub strats when playing with noobs but him not regarding nether shawl as a tank item on an agi hero, especially when you have taken 60 percent magic dmg, rubs me wrong
Your team was full of supports and a nuker, you all had 0 late game survivability. The only way to win with a team full of too many supports is to win the early game and mid game and completely win the game in the mid game via cleverly using your abilities to nuke down the enemy team before the nukes become useless in the late game e.g. unkillable Chaos Knight. I feel this is an important step in Grubby's journey... he's learned to be greedy and take initiative, extremely important habits and they were the only way to win in this game, just his team allowed themselves to get picked off individually every time Grubby was dead and Grubby's late game swaps were awful. Slacks was the best coach Grubby could of had that game and it's the most entertained I've been all year. GGWP.
This combo is freaking gold. Slacks brings the nonserious fun and Grubby's relentless positivity keeps things from tilting when the less-than-optimal instruction goes south.
The buddy cop duo is back at it "Grubby n Slacks 3: Time for Vengeance"
Lol
honeslty those would be lit titles

The Grubby x Slacks collabs are my fave - they’re so hilariously chaotic 😂
TRUE HAHA FUN CHAOS
Love grubby n slax:). All the coaching seshs really! Hope we get to see all of em since I can't catch streams often. Love seeing you learn and learning with you!
Slacks literally a fusion reactor, he never runs out of energy

I Really love the duo of you two,really like the energy and synergy between you two ahahaha
"I've played Dota really bad for a really long time."
I felt that in my soul.
Another grubbers and slack chan duo!!! Oh boy, oh boy the wait was worth it! hahaha!
There’s something so satisfying about the way Slacks says “DUMBO MMR”
i love how every time slacks gets excited his mic gets muted
I was thinking idk wtf made me start commenting and liking on YT videos and I remembered….. the first combo video Slacks and Grubby did felt so genuine and I think I said that was the most exciting vid, energetic, different in a long time since I started following grubby and watching every WC3 video.

awesome vid, grubby and slacks are suck a great combo. their personalities compliment each other so well and both are very entertaining.
you should do some type of recurring series with slacks, it will be an instant hit
Slacks: Take those last hits, quick!
Slacks: Get that rune quick, just say OOPS
Slacks: You're the carry now, leave those noobs
Slacks: I don't TP for allies, I don't care if they die
Slacks: Allies will respawn, towers won't
Slacks: Go give that boy a taste of arcane boots
Slacks: SWAP HIM SWAP HIM
I
fucking
love
Slacks and Grubby together. This is best combo to watch and listen
35:09 Slacks just knew. I always expect a Konold and never leave disappointed.
33:30 is what u came for

Regen rune spawns.
"Go get it."
Sees low health ally, gives it to him.
*"Such weakness! It disgusts me."*
I love this vid so much, I'm laughing throughout this madness 😂😂

love you guys haha

10/10 for Slacks and 6/10 for grubby for being a bad puppet :P
38:50 "this is horrible this is bad, this is good kill them all!" it was 4 dire men diving into 5 radiant men under a tower. 5 > 4, success! Nice bravery.
29:38 "That's Weakness..." LMAO
Her aura with vlads can turn the tide of battle pretty quick. Rad concept
I wouldn't complain if grubs can upload a video everyday with coach slacks.. Just saying
That poor techies lololol. Also awesome part 3
48:13 Holy crap that bounce range
"I would be mad if I were Crusader II for a decade". not perseonally attacked because I am Crusader I for a decade.
Lets go the best influence on Grubby is back
collab with slacks is so much fun
I really enjoy it when you've got SAS on!
I don't play Dota but I enjoyed the whole video. We should definitely keep this series going!
You guys do make a good buddy cop duo team, would love to see you on the floor of ti with slacks bouncing personalities.

OMFG I LOVE SLACKS pissing out my eyes 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The thumbnail is just *chef's kiss*
LOL this is so chaotic, and i love it
"Bill gate doesnt get rich by doing bunch of charity" - word of a legend, sir action slack the wise guy
Slacks is the GOAT of Coaching :D
Not just perfoming like that, but even against RVSSUNz, is a feat.
Actionslacks cracks me up! Can he just do a vaguely inacurate Hero Spotlight on everyone in Dota already?
Please more of slacks man, this is god tier content.
Slacks is the absolute best ever.
0:35 Saltlords Reckt
this was so funny, grubby had a good time
Please more coaching from him, this was a great video.
YES! Absolutely love this.
Slacks may be "wild and crazy", but he's got good game sense. ♥️
The world needs more Grubby and Slacks DotA ♥️
I added "Whoops" to my chat wheel, thanks for the tip.
Fun Fact: The voice over of Vengeful Spirit in DotA 1 was provided by perhaps one of the most important character in Warcraft Universe. The Dark Lady & The Leader of the Forsaken Lady Sylvanas Windrunner
I clearly remember Venge Spirit in dota 1 had no voice but a bunch of roars and noises taken from idk which creep/demon in wc3
@@Gh0stChannel it was swapped to Ancient Apparition
I've been waiting for this one!
Brrt brrt ! God gamer alert
Slacks: Venge E skill is a sh*t whatever
infamous jaboom aura sisters of PINOY DOTO would not be completed without venge aura
Slacks and Grubby are my favorite Dota pairing
the best duo, slax is a legend
Oh this is amazing congrats
best coach ever)
Slacks coaching is the best, so funny
Slacks is such a treasure! :D
So far Grubby's biggest obstacle seems to be inventory management. Still doing great tho.
Someone introduce Slacks to Helluvaboss's Loo Loo land scene. All his yealling about LoLoing people XD
You can't miss SirActionSlacks coaching. Hahaha!
slacks is a gem
Damnnnn grubby!!
Omg Slacks is hilarious 😂
48:32 lol
Slacks is the best coach in the history of mankind!
laugh so hard please give more of this
Grubby, just keep buying Wraith Pact whenever you can on every hero while it still hasn't gotten nerfed
This is so underrated cha in DOTA 2... First items Scepter + shard with ealy carries its GG... :-)
Really nice first game
Bro. Teach me how to climb into the archon bracket.
slacks and grubby so good
The slacks position 5 😂
Is he playing with Bill Burr ? :D
I can't believe Slacks can be a great coach. Never in my life.

ck makes strong illusions (still good to hex them ofc but they don't instadie); also what happened is the arc was bad simply lol
@@thyred3167 Yeah, but when there is a lvl3 hero in the enemy team, with 19 deaths. You have to have something wrong with your own team, if you can't take 5v4, especially with such great feed.
I lost it at the Techies swap :D
Who else remember burning vengeful Spirit carry with 2 deadalous and hurricane pike
slacks is the god of pub strats when playing with noobs but him not regarding nether shawl as a tank item on an agi hero, especially when you have taken 60 percent magic dmg, rubs me wrong

Arc gotta be playing steam deck lol
Slax's methods arent unconventional...they're the real methods xd
Slax is hilarious
beautiful
Your team screwed you with the picks. To make that team win you can't let it go long unless you are way way ahead. Normally
so how do i join your religion guys?
How can grubby be turned into evil when he already is evil?!
*Looks at draft*
*Looks at video length*
He lost
that was fun lol
