I don’t think he came up with the „pretending to be afk“ strat. Star Craft players like harstem have done this for years. Also it didn’t work out at all, but grubby still had a very ez game since he was just way better than his opponent…
Come on are you a bot? It's a nice idea. But he uploaded a game where the enemy didn't scout it at all. TBH it's a clickbait(!): He should try again, and upload where it actually has what the title promises where it works, if he loses is ok. Here unfortunately the whole awesome expectations of the users are going to the dust, the fiesta isn't noticed, the enemy doesn't play like he was afk, and then being suprrised or something about being attacked by level 6 FL. This is a normal game as it can get, but with a penalty. That's it. While we are at it, NO, this isn't creativity. It's suggestions by users, and these EXACT challenges exist in Starcaft 2 for years where it comes from.
@@DiaBolicGainz if your english is bad, use Google Translator to understand my sentence «I understood Grubby's intend to pretend AFK well» above... And yeah, the title has "pretend" in it, so there's no clickbait at all
@@DiaBolicGainz There's nothing wrong with the title. Grubby chose it, because he initially intended to pretend AFK. He ended up stopping pretending, but that doesn't make the title a clickbait. And I said nothing about the title. Until YOU called it a clickbait. Meanwhile, we didn't see orc do much for the most part of this video. Yes, he wasn't actually AFK either. Non of the players was. But for me orc looked much more AFK than Grubby. And THAT'S exactly what I was talking about. Not about the "clickbait". Not about the title. Just about relatively passive orc player. I hope you understand me this time and stop calling me uncomprehending and Grubby clickbaiting. In any case, it was my last attempt to explain.
I'm exactly watching NO live stream, because of THIS. Here: I don't want to see a clickbait and waste my time with content I do not want to see. I want to see exactly what the title says "pretending to be AFK" - so he should upload where the enemy is actually scouting and thinking he was AFK! I don't care if the game wins or not, but the title should be fullfilled. I lose trust with all these clickbaits, see also "let my enemy decide on my strategy". He basically uploads anything he streams, and doesn't care if his viewer is dissapointed because it's not the content that was promised. Just win... No I search and click on stuff because of what the title says, not just because of the pretty picture or a pro streaming or it winning.
The actual pretend to be AFK strat is to pick Elf, not move the starting wisps, build one wisp, turn it into a TOL somewhere near the edge of the map, and eat trees and hide it. The enemy will kill your main and wisps and then be really confused when the game doesn't end. I've won a game or two doing this back in the day. They just give up and leave.
The odds of the opponent getting Orc AND BM! Only saw you because they were green-creeping around the map. Would have been awesome to see a confused TC or Farseer get your decoy main.
What? I like grubbies content, but why so damn fanboish, in this upload it's a pure clickbait IMO: The title is pretending to be AFK, however the enemy doesn't notice that "pretention" AT ALL, he plays a total normal game, as is grubby from that point on but with a penalty. No surprise attack, no nothing. The video title is completely not the case. It's the same as in his upload "let my opponent decide on my stragegy" . I too enjoyed harstem's "pretend to be afk" crap by the way, while he was not the first to do it again, i saw it many times since release and also did myself, AND i would never upload a video where the enemy just finds me on the map as a normal game... LOLz
Trying to put the wisps back into the starting spots had me cracking up. Back in SC2: WoL I'd do a similar strat on lost temple where I would mine just enough to build a new command center, build it in the corner and float it to the island. I'd then rearrange my 6 SCVs to look like I was AFK. Worked occasionally 😂😂 probably even easier to do now in SC2 since the workers auto mine at the beginning. Not many maps with islands anymore though.
4:00 grubby come on, why upload this? TBH it's a clickbait 😞 The title is clearly pretending to be AFK, but then the game is completely unrelated to that: The enemy didn't scout it at all, and basically the whole fiesta isn't noticed the enemy doesn't play like you're AFK. (finds your bottom base/hero creep instead, 4 minutes of watch time wasted - they were great but kind of dissapointing at 4 min) At least try again and upload also the 2nd but where it "works" (the title that is). This is now the second awesome title that doesn't work out at all. Last I watched yesterday: "Let enemy decide on my strategy": But chooses "play good" meh...... You just upload your streaming? Anyways, thanks for your otherwise-nice content...
Is this all bot comments? It DID NOT work. It's a clickbait. Just lazy upload from his livestream, no retry on actual content that I click on or that is written
You just say lmao because he wins and matches himself vs noobs (which is already weak and annoying) But that this is actually a clickbait. (enemy didn't scout AFK, so there was no game based on AFK and no surprise, nothing that I expect from such title) Perhaps if you actually try the game and have some goals that you want to watch you realize he just uploads every twitch stream video and all he then adds is a grafic and clickbaity title - well often they actually do what it says, but I found several where not i.e. "let my opponent decide on my strategy".
I feel bad, I did something similar when I was really into ladder and stats. Anyways, i was 19-0 on solo. The next game, I was out played and out-micro’d. I didn’t want a loss (was trying to get 25-0). Anyways, I started asking the opponent questions to “learn”, essentially social engineering, kept him engaged as he kept answering questions. 5-10 minutes later, he realised I had a second base and I had 60 food worth of wyverns, whilst he just kept his few footies as we were chatting. All that matters is.. I win! Haha
this is some next level creativity, i like that grubby's having a ton of fun even after playing this game for 20 years
I don’t think he came up with the „pretending to be afk“ strat. Star Craft players like harstem have done this for years.
Also it didn’t work out at all, but grubby still had a very ez game since he was just way better than his opponent…
@Pullerschubser Willi Hell even I used it as a viable start as Gla Stealth general for C&C

I must safe guard the wilds -Night Elves
13:35 You can eat far more trees more quickly with this one simple trick -Grubby the forest destroyer
He is the king of orcs after all, what did you expect?
When an Ent is hungry, it eats its friends.
So... Which one of you was AFK?
@@DiaBolicGainz it's not clickbait. It's just orc didn't seem to do much for the most of the game, while Grubby took 3 bases and leveled up his heroes
@@DiaBolicGainz I understood Grubby's intend to pretend AFK well. But it was orc who ended up doing nothing visible for most of the game
@@DiaBolicGainz so which one of us clearly did not understand the other's comment? ;-)

i love how grubby was handycapping himself through the game so the other player didnt quit XD
Honestly more of this crap is what I want to see Grubby just trying bizarre tactics
This is hilarious! Grubby, do it again sometime, hope it works the intended way this time around XD
The best move is, to not move at all
-Sun Tzu, probably idk I never read the art of war
i like these weird games like this. keep them coming!
Definitely watch his twitch channel if his stream times work for you. Always entertaining and he'll engage with chat when able.

Good opinion, best of luck on your RUclips searches, I guess.
Your last games extremely enjoyable to watch with these fun strats :)
You should try this one again.
I gotta admit, this challenge made me laugh like a schoolchild.

lol that is cursed
Best thumbnails
lmao this is the dream of every elf just going full chimera and ignore all the rest )
Grubby was so happy when the volcano got out of the ground xD
I remember people doing that on sc2 years ago, big fun
The odds of the opponent getting Orc AND BM! Only saw you because they were green-creeping around the map. Would have been awesome to see a confused TC or Farseer get your decoy main.
That was a lot of fun to watch!
When I've seen Harstem do this in SC2 I would've never thought anyone would try it in Warcraft! Well played!

Another AFK game please! Was so entertaining! 😂❤

hey man players like this are why wc3 is so fun. you can do your own strats and the units are cool
The thumbnail tho 😂
I have never seen FireLord long time...
Orc players always leave when you kill their Blademaster
Grubby manages to make Firelord look good, even though this is normally one of the worst heroes in the game for anything other than a tower rush.
NEW CHALLENGE: Try to eat every tree on the map
My parents taught me that you shouldn't play with your food :)
please try this strat until the opponent actually falls for it. so much fun!
Thank you for the video!
Lets call it: "Reverse expansion strategy"
gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood
Please more like these, grubster 😅🤙
Annoying Warcraft has a funny AFK win videos
You shouldn’t play with your food
Mass bats into NE just seems like a bad strat no matter what else is going on
Please don’t edit out Logan pets
awesome
VOLCANO!!!!!
Please do this one again!!
So funny man
gg grub hub
wind riders?
This strat wouldn’t work against me. I never scout 😂
Is this all bot comments? It DID NOT work. It's a clickbait. Just lazy upload from his livestream, no retry on actual content that I click on or that is written
I feel like the other person is doing some kind of challenge as well, otherwise they are playing really weird (bad).
bat
Mantap grubby 👍
lmaooooooo

This is a sad story.
You should ask harstem for advice on this build ;)
You are Dendi but in WC3
You pretended to be afk now you just seem rude for the no "gl"
What is your favourite strat?
1) yes
2) no (i sleep)
