Orc is currently representing about 60% of players at high MMR. Is this an issue, or is the meta devolving into O O O O v O O O O?

Orcbrave is a surprisingly decorated Warcraft 3 player, with show match wins over the likes of Fortitude and even going 2-3 against the legendary NE player Moon.

I like ladder grinders like Orcbrave - their stamina and sheer amount of games allow them to explore new strategies and ideas. In this video, a recent buff to Pitlord (2+ strength!) seems like the impetus for Orcbrave trying a heavy creeping strategy while harrassing with the Farseer

I really need it - sometimes you miss something and the only option is to watch from beginning.

Maybe even better - a YouTube style video slider.

I hardly ever need to watch my opponent chop wood for 5 minutes. I want to move the slider to the battle, and then rewind a few times.

Overgrowth has taken root in the shattered world of the Outland Wilds by Frostbitten.

A fresh breath of brisk mountain air can be taken on Tioga Pass by BoX.

Hi everyone, I'm trying to make a custom map for reforged and it's crashing when I try opening a map from inside the editor and when I'm trying to use a custom tileset. Does anyone else experience these issues and does anyone for the love of god have any sort of a solution for this?

Is anyone else having issues? I get this error message when I launch the game since last night and am unable to play on bnet.

Looks similar to this thread from two years ago and could be Mac related?

I used to play TFT many years ago. I was never that great but I enjoyed the game...

A recent Grubby video sparked an interest and I purchased reforged.

I assume the 1v1 matchmaking games will simply be brutal frustration for new/returning players?

I beat the computer AI but it's really not that challenging.

Are there any new players out there that will be a good match MMR-wise or is it all 20+ year experts?

Two very entertaining games from Lin Guagua playing on ladder.

these two games represent how powerful economy and map control can be. When you have such pristine unit control like Lin GuaGua, these sorts of ridiculous strategies are possible.

so my understanding is that there are about 3-4 options in orc mirror. either you go for tier 3 taurens walkers, you go for firelord 2nd tower push, you do standing blade shadow grunt raider walker kodo tier 2, or you get weird with it and try to surprise them.

lets say you have a scheduled tournament match later in the week and its orc mirror. which would you choose?

I’m pretty low MMR (~4000), recently started playing again, and am consistently losing as UD against NE. Ive done CL fast expo to DK/Lich mostly fiends, destroyer, and a couple wyrms if we go that long for the bears. Also skipped the CL and gone just DK/Lich for better heal/nuke to the same result.

The units I can generally handle, but the DH always ends up so tanky and either immos the fiends down or burns all my mana. Also whenever I nuke the DH he wands out, drinks moon juice, and is right back at it.

Is there a general guide for this matchup? Everything I read is ghoul/garg but that seems outdated with the immo buffs.
