saddly that is not your typical experience. typical dota experience is getting snowballed for 30 min straight and u cant even surrender match even tho u know u have no chances to compete
I would say you fall into a common trap I also fall into, which is the "I have to help my team!" mindset, where you treat yourself too disposably as a carry. That instinct of "my teammates are dying, I have to do something!" is what gets carry players killed in teamfights usually. You kind of have to be a psycho with carries. "Ahhh, excellent, my venomancer ate 3 enemy nukes and my venge has been pounced, now I can go in safely and murder everybody". Cold and calculated. You definitely adjusted towards the end though!
For every lore fun : Lost within the Wailing Mountains, the Fortress of Flares lay abandoned, its training halls empty, its courtyard covered in leaves and dust. Upon a dais in its sealed temple rests a topaz cauldron filled with ancient ash, remnants of a pyre for the warrior-poet Xin. For three generations, Xin taught his acolytes the Bonds of the Guardian Flame, a series of mantras to train the mind and body for the harsh realities beyond the fortress walls. However, in teaching a warrior's way he earned a warrior's rivals, and in his autumn Xin was bested and slain. His followers spread to the wind. Yet as years turned to centuries and followers to descendants, his teachings endured by subtle whisper and deed. Touched by the teacher's lasting legacy, the Burning Celestial, inquisitive aspect of fire, cast himself to the Fortress of Flares and reignited the pyre ash. From these glowing embers emerged an image of Xin, wreathed in flame, his thoughtful countenance prepared to train and to teach, and to spread the fires of knowledge to all who seek guidance.
fun fact: almost every single one of Ember's voice lines (apart from some specific responses to other heroes) are exactly 4 words long, as a reference to a type of Chinese idiom; he even says himself, "Four Words Is Plenty" another thing that's really interesting is that the 4 Spirit Heroes (Earth, Ember, Storm, Void) all have a very similar basic premise/design philosophy: Super mobile, low cooldowns, medium-strong CC, and an immensely high skill ceiling
Euls would've been an amazing item this game and in general on ember. It gives mana, MS, an interrupt, a silence + pounce removal and a solid counter to axe call.
well if you new to dota, learning things with Grubby and grow together to understanding dota world is a fun experiences i wish i'am a new dota player right now
Mid embers usually rush boots of travel because it lets you react quickly and also lets you regen mana since it has a much lower cooldown for you to tp back to base than a scroll. Also on this game a casual ghost scepter would have been insane, its not expensive and it would force one of them to buy a 5k item since it would make you virtually unkillable.
I'm glad that you got matched with nice and well coordinated teammates despite them not knowing you playing your first Ember Spirit game. It makes the game much more enjoyable. Good luck with your challenge.
Grubby it’s insane how fast you’re adapting to the game. Just one thing though, it’s really important to play the heroes in certain ways as “power spikes” is one of the most important things in the game. Heroes like earthshaker, ember are snowball heroes so after a few levels and items try to go for kills. You can always ask chat if a hero is better played tank or ganker or just farm all the game. If you try to play the hero as it’s role is supposed to be, you’ll have more fun and have better impact in the game (specially in the learning basics phase). Can’t wait for the Invoker stream and Rubick stream.
I see a lot of advice like this in grubby's comments that really isn't beginner advice. He's brand new to the game and is constantly focused on a million different new things, mechanics, items, heroes etc. Trying to tell him to "pay attention to power curves" doesn't seem that useful right now, he's just learning how to play the game and learning the heroes.
not sure if you know, but you can spam the bottle in the fountain to restore hp+mp faster so you can get back to lane quicker, it's also a good idea to put an item in your backpack before a delivered item gets to you, that way you dont have to wait 6 seconds
(I got the idea for this comment from the drow game, just dropping it here for a larger chance for grubby to see it) I think you should take some time to talk to your viewers and stablish some grounds for the tips which they are giving. Maybe think it out with some experienced pro. For example, try to get your viewers to tip you more on mechanics, details that you might be missing or general item, or ability characteristics. Specially since you are trying a new hero for the first time. More focused on objective descriptions rather than specifics on what you should do next. Item builds/ general movement on when to farm, map awareness are things you are doing well and can and will only improve with game time. This is the way I see it but your feedback would be the best for what tips can help you out the most. This is a most interesting journey, keep it up Grubby :) >3
U can use W for I-frames to dodge attacks in critical moments Also practice W Q on single targets to get used to the split second combo, it can be very useful when chasing, thats hiis bread and butter With Daedalus and other pure dmg items in late game, your W can one shot squishy supports if you crit, and all that from a safe distance
Hi Grubby,i´ve small tip for you. If you are near tower and it´s hitting you, force attack on your creep (like you want to deny it) and the tower will attack someone else (the nearest unit), otherwise tower act like creeps (if you attac enemy hero it aggro you)
Hi legend, i really want to see you collab with BSJ for a coaching session. He's not a two times ti winner, but hes very good at explaining things and assessing what is best to learn next. Thanks for enjoying my fav game ❤️ Upd: you mentioned once it would be good if there was evergreen dota guides and i think thats exactly what he does
there's venge, and tide. wave of terror + gush. and then grubby grabbed a deso. not even axe can tank with that much armor reduction. oh yea.. that drow definitely had a really good time.
Great conent again. Playing all heroes once is a great idea - this is how I started. I wonder what approach you will use after you're done. Can't wait for your first ranked games!
Its so weird to See the pro Player you Most Respect since you was a itty bitty Boy strungle too Play your fav Game. I Play all the Spirits for tons of years and its all Just in my muscle memory. So much fun too See you experience that so pure
i've been a casual dota player since dota 1 and i still don't dare to play ember because of the ulti :D btw, idk if you do the thumbnails yourself or have someone to do it for you, but pretty sick how you pump out those videos while also streaming so much.
@@FollowGrubby pretty sure I tried the W+Q combo and though it didn´t work Looks like I have to be faster, learning a lot with your gameplay and chat advices!
still have basic mistake. always bring tp. remember its is always no matter what style for magic damage and mobility. if you choice battle fury u can go crit 2 -> max physic damage -> use full to deal with line up 3 melee
It’d be awesome if you are coached by EE(EternalEnvy). He’ll definitely give you some valuable lessons on awareness by yelling at you “GEBAK GEBAK GEBAK! GETDEFAKBAK!”
youre forgeting the aggro mechanic grubby you click the enemy so the creeps will go to you so you can last hit safely without getting harass from the enemy hero its so important dont forget that
After 220 matches and 47 percent winrate at archon 3 i can say this maybe ember not so good as pos1, u can play aggresive at early to mid game, but kinda fall off at late game so dont pick ember if ur mid not play hard carry hero And u can absolutely farm aggresively just dont forget to put ur remnant in ur jungle camp and always bring tp
And dont fucking ever frontline if u dont have bkb When u want to jump in, always remember to bkb if enemy have stun When u dont have bkb or on cd, always kite and harrash with sof chain dont ever commit if u cant guarantee a fast kill
This is insanely fun hero but requires quite a bit of skill, since when are you playing DotA? I've been your fan for a long time, watching your Warcraft games. Cheers mate!

i really love how the video doesn't end after the game c: the bits at the end with just grubby talking with chat is so nice
Glad you like it! I'll make sure to keep these parts in the videos :D
It might also be interesting if you watched replays some of your earlier games and commented on the mistakes that you now see.
saddly that is not your typical experience. typical dota experience is getting snowballed for 30 min straight and u cant even surrender match even tho u know u have no chances to compete
true i llike it that way too

@username this made me laugh so hard :D
fun fact: almost every single one of Ember's voice lines (apart from some specific responses to other heroes) are exactly 4 words long, as a reference to a type of Chinese idiom; he even says himself, "Four Words Is Plenty"
another thing that's really interesting is that the 4 Spirit Heroes (Earth, Ember, Storm, Void) all have a very similar basic premise/design philosophy: Super mobile, low cooldowns, medium-strong CC, and an immensely high skill ceiling
also, every "spirit" hero uses a remnant in their kit.
And they all have a way to be invincible for a short duration
you are exactly what the community need!! hope to get your reaction of the coming truesight....
Euls would've been an amazing item this game and in general on ember. It gives mana, MS, an interrupt, a silence + pounce removal and a solid counter to axe call.
for the amount of games you played, this is extremly good gameplay. Props! Love the series!
Thanks a ton!
My favorite hero
Grubby, you have got to get Siractionslacks to be your next coach. He's the main core of your training.
Slacks has a very SUS password that even Purge the Immovable who coached him once, broke character.
get him to coach you windrunner, he is one of the best at the hero, chat knows it
IN AMREICA!
Seeing his hotkeys broke my sides.
@@kosher3425 He puts his midas on the "dollar sign."
well if you new to dota, learning things with Grubby and grow together to understanding dota world is a fun experiences
i wish i'am a new dota player right now
Fun fact:
All of Embers voicelines are 4-worded.
"Four words are plenty" (c) Ember
Bro we are happy to have you in Dota community! :)) I am watching your videos with high interest
I appreciate that!

Ember spirit is the definition of complicated yet satisfying.
Yes. Balance in all things

Been binge watching your DotA 2 series Grubby! Please keep it up! ❤
Soon Grubby will be the the next TI winner boy's, when the A-Z ends he will be ready!

My absolute fav hero.
Grubby, i hope ure enjoying ur time playing this game cause I love watching you playing it. You are doing so well im so proud of you lolol wkew
I'm having a blast! Glad you enjoy the videos!
Seems a great hero for you man ^^

Chatting
love the axe scream "TOO MEE" haha
This is like a daily dose now.
love how every new hero he plays he has to do the grunts and strange noises they do as well lmao
love to see u here, practice well this exiting game
You are actually a good ember for a first timer playing it especially your laning stage... GJWP Grubby
That axe is like a damn electric fan thats turned on the highest speed.
I think if u look up finesse in the dictionary ull see a picture of ember spirit...one of the most fun heroes to play in the game
love from Chinese fan
frothing at the mouth for the meepo game
We're getting close! :D
This was a fun one to watch. I think I'm going to take the dive and pick this game up.
FINALLY XIN, my most favorite, most played hero, glad u enjoy him
Nice to see you learning this game with its many details and aspects. gl hf
U can use W for I-frames to dodge attacks in critical moments
Also practice W Q on single targets to get used to the split second combo, it can be very useful when chasing, thats hiis bread and butter
With Daedalus and other pure dmg items in late game, your W can one shot squishy supports if you crit, and all that from a safe distance
When you use an invisibility rune, the fade out takes a second and you can spam bottle once to get some regen and it doesnt break the invis.
Oh i'm excited about this one. Ember is my most played hero, so this will be very fun to watch
Grubby has a tendency to eat a cookie when he does something bad, I fear for his health while playing dota2.
31:07 "I need to be faster" (Haste rune immediately appears)
Reminder : dont lose a momentum and watch your map oftenly
Hi Grubby,i´ve small tip for you. If you are near tower and it´s hitting you, force attack on your creep (like you want to deny it) and the tower will attack someone else (the nearest unit), otherwise tower act like creeps (if you attac enemy hero it aggro you)
You can change minimap Icon in options from colors to the Icon of the actual heros is Better for minimap awarness

Upd: you mentioned once it would be good if there was evergreen dota guides and i think thats exactly what he does
Oh good to know, I've got a couple of videos coming up where I'm coached by Gorgc and Wagamama, but I'll keep that in mind :D
Learn from ana Or topson. But for that you need to travel to south east Asia. You will ascend once you do...
there is a magic build for ember too, i like to start with travel independent which build
and if you start with travel, you dont need to do bottle, because you always come back to fountain, with travel you have perma tp, and lower cd for tp
Hello Mr. Champ, after A to Z challenge. Would you like to have a dragon's blood(dota anime) watchalong from time to time?
Grubby is the only place I have to take rest from toxic dota community
there's venge, and tide. wave of terror + gush. and then grubby grabbed a deso. not even axe can tank with that much armor reduction.
oh yea.. that drow definitely had a really good time.
"High level player, 2000mmr and above"
You can hold Alt + hover cursor on skills or item to see additional description
BSJ coaching Grubby will be interesting
Great conent again. Playing all heroes once is a great idea - this is how I started. I wonder what approach you will use after you're done. Can't wait for your first ranked games!
Ready to carry Heralds for sure
you can Press item or Skill twice to TP back to base or cast skill and item to urself
tp back so fast if you press double click to T
Its so weird to See the pro Player you Most Respect since you was a itty bitty Boy strungle too Play your fav Game. I Play all the Spirits for tons of years and its all Just in my muscle memory. So much fun too See you experience that so pure
"ill be back" "with D"
41:58 at this point Axe is literally an orc blademaster spinning wtf
I decided to play dota once more, after yt recommended one of your vids, got 3 hrs of low prio cuz of bad client but eh, love your vids btw
If you wanna guaranteed to hit ur q with ur w. You must hit enemy with your W with the farthest radius of the circle range
@Grubby the slark renamed his steam account during the game :D in the starting screen (at 9:30) you see his name was "Hic! Hic!"
Did he just call me a high level player with my 2010 mmr @5:20? I am honored.
Its like a Karazim mixed with a Samuro lol. Nice hero.
After A to Z grubby goes ti 😎
i've been a casual dota player since dota 1 and i still don't dare to play ember because of the ulti :D

Ember Spirit is really difficult and hard carry... really
Grubby will you be watching TI? I'm loving your Dota 2 journey so far
First game on ember and Grubby is already rejecting magic build, true sigma male.
Mason best dota player of all time and probably best coach too. He isn’t gonna take the initiative though. Grubby please drop him a DM lol

GG WP man!
I always think about poor African children watching Grubby waste all those bottle charges =)
No water discipline smh
Hello Grubby 👋.

youre forgeting the aggro mechanic grubby you click the enemy so the creeps will go to you so you can last hit safely without getting harass from the enemy hero its so important dont forget that
Yes, keep in mind, the A to Z challenge is lagging a bit behind the stream, so this game is from the 5th of September, but thanks for the reminder!

What level is grubby's battle pass ?
grubby as a warcraft fan i strongly suggest you to play world of warcraft: wrath of the lich king classic.
Fun Fact = Ember spirit only speaks 4 words in one sentence
Should've got 2 battle fury, 2 rapier, bkb and travel for the meta. Kek
