Mangs: if you're new here, you may not know who Grimm Guy is. Me: I am not, and I do know. Mangs: ... and for the people who do know who Grimm Guy is, I don't think you're gonna complain about seeing another Grimm Guy game. Me: very true, please continue.
I completely understand that resign. He had lost in the north. Completely ran out of steam in the south AND his HQ was getting capped. My dude was toast.
Yeah, even if he won the coinflip all it would do is dely the cap for a turn and then he would have to completely wipe out that infantry to prevent the cap as it would be at 19. The only units he had that could reinforce in time were just infantry and a single Anti-Air and GG had 3 tanks and 3 battlecopters right there.
It seemed like he focused almost everything on the north, and then in a single turn just got utterly clapped. It was just kind of bleeding out after that.
All he had on the start of his turn, was trapped BCopter, an anti air still in the base, 3 injured vehicles, and infantry. What are you going to do with that. North is about to be based locked and taken as well.
At 14:26 Hawke has to delete the medium tank for an Anti-Air, and he didn't even get powercharge. So he just lost 16k value for nothing, and that's a whole turn of income almost. Wonder if he misclicked that build?
En el ataque a la base, había 3 tanques y 2 helicópteros, el simplemente hizo tec up para poder frenar el ataque, lo que no contaba es que le podia hacer base block con los helicópteros.
He was worried about the nearby tank hitting the anti air hard enough that the copters could finish it. An MD tank could at least sit on the base and not immediately die, avoiding a base lock. But this strategy ignored that the battle copters could just box the tank in.
I didn't notice that until I saw his Anti-Air and went "Huh? Did he delete the MD?!" and scrolled back to check. He didn't even take a cursory potshot at the B-Copters or anything, even though it was free charge! I think he may have been distracted, or maybe inebriated.
The YT algorithm decided to bless me with putting your video in my recommended. I have to say, it's awesome to see this game has a competitive scene. I loved playing Advanced Wars: Dual Strike when I was a kid, and was obsessed with making maps on it. Seeing people play these games far better than I ever did brings joy to my soul XD
If you have the damage calculator open, you can just hover over a unit and press A and D to set the attacking and defending units. It’s way quicker and more comfortable!
He sacced the infantry to deny to tower for one turn to get power and to be the first to capture a tower for his attack since the other player hadn't captured a tower at this point. The infantry at this point served its purpose, it captured buildings. He sacced it like a pawn in chess.
New sub here, but I've been watching for a few years now. I haven't commented until now, but since you asked, I found your channel when UA-cam recommended I find out if Neotanks were worth it four years ago. Thanks for getting me into competitive Advance Wars! And good luck in our match!
Hi Mangs, new subscriber here. I found your channel because people were posting your rip_ commentary videos in the Discord, and I appreciate your style and effort in talking us through these games. I prefer your commentary on Fog games, as I'm only interested in playing Fog on AWBW, but I greatly enjoyed learning about Grimm Guy. Hoping for more strategy-teaching videos, as I am just dipping my toe into the Global League. Thanks Mangs!
I looked up the advance wars: days of ruin soundtrack for nostalgia, and a day later, your channel popped up in my feed. Algorithm at work. Really cool to see that there is a competetive scene for this game. I basically played advance wars non-stop growing up.
Hi I just wandered in here off the algorithm. The last time i checked in to AWBW it was literally a new creation, kind of janky and weird, and nobody wanted to play it in my friend group. Now it seems to be flourishing! Very cool!
12:05 Hawke should have used Black Wave here. He counter attacks Grimm, but sets up his units to get first struck with a Knuckleduster. A Black Wave would have mitigated some of those one shots and very likely kept Hawke in the game. Masterfully done by the Grimm player though--who cares about the lack of movement bonuses if your opponent simply lines up their units for first strikes?
Hey there I found your channel because I was looking up ways to beat the hard campaign in AW 1+2. From there I really have been enjoying your insight into everything and the game replays. Has definitely helped improve my game! Thank you!
Glad to hear that you've got some new subs! You definitely deserve them. I love your long replay videos, can barely watch em without opening my emulator and playing a bit myself
"How did you find my channel?" - UA-cam randomly recommended me your videos, and I hadn't seen or thought about AW in years. You're a very entertaining commentator, so I stick around. :) If I had to guess, I was on a Fire Emblem stint shortly before your AW vids were recommended. That probably had something to do with it.
What I love about this map is that its use of naval terrain and units best approximates what it would be like to have military train units in AW - moving along a grid of narrow lines, light trains able to access most of the map, heavy war trains boxed into the corners, and most rails traversable by ground units. Piperunners r cool, but eat your hearts out!
I watch Advance Wars stuff for fun, very glad I found it from randomly being recommended your channel. Grimm Guy's clearly got a _very solid_ grip on the game, and as only a viewer, I very much do not. Guarantee I'd lose no matter what CO I have, but I wouldn't expect GG to have an interest in such a match anyway. But it'd still be funny.
Grimm guy is like IHEARTJUSTICE player from Marvel vs Capcom 3. He chose a low tier (Phoenix Wright) but that Low Tier became undisputed Top 1 IF you meets certain condition (Hit an Objection with 3 good Evidences to get Turnabout Mode). Granted though, Phoenix Wright was surprisingly Tanky (1 mil HP where most of the cast ranged between 800K to 900K HP. Heck, Akuma, Vergil and Dante got LOWER HP than this lawyer for some reason) for him being a lawyer instead of a fighter.
New sub here. Found this channel when I searched for advance wars on a whim and it rekindled my passion for the game. Also I somehow never played the first game's hard mode until I saw the videos here. Anyway, glad to be among fellow people of culture.
Hello mangs, I'm not sure why the UA-cam algorithm brought me here, but I have no regrets. Ty for bringing this pro scene to my attention and for the great videos.
I was one of those occasional viewers that are not subscribed until recently. I used to binge watch some advance wars content some time ago, and few weeks ago I decided to finally take the step to subscribe :P So, I am both a new subscriber, and I also have seen all the grimm videos and he fascinates me ♥
I found your channel after I posted in a AW Facebook page how much I’m looking forward to reboot camp so I can finally play online. Someone commented and told me about AWBW. Typed it into UA-cam and your name was the first to pop up. Fast forward 2 years and I’m ~1300 MMR!
As you said, winning the coinflip at the end wouldn't really have saved the game; it would just delay Grimm Guy's win for a turn. If anyone is unsure of that, look: His only units left in range to stop the cap are two Infantry which even at full HP would easily fall to Grimm's multiple B Copters + Tanks in the area. That said, if it were me I would give it a go just to see if it happened, and then resign anyway XD
New sub here. I used to play Advance Wars with my friend in the back of French class at school and came across your channel by chance. You inspired me to play through the old school games again, and I enjoy watching your competitive play coverage. Keep it up!
Ou jeeh, more Grimm guy! Thanks Mangs, this is the best Advance wars content :D Edit: And a "newer before seen map" as well! Edit2: Yeah, totally more Grimm content plz
I got no clue how this game got in my recommended vids, never seen or heard of it ever before. As someone who enjoys chess and strategy games i've come to appreciate your castings of games
Hi Mangs! I’m a new sub and I have no idea why your videos started appearing on my feed but I’ve been binging all your videos for a few weeks now. I used to play advance wars 15-20 years ago with my brothers and friends on the GBA. Always loved the games and almost forgot they existed. Now I’m getting the itch to try my hand at AWBW, all because of your amazing casting and demeanour. You’re doing a great job and thank you so much for bringing AW back into the forefront of my mind and all the great videos. I’m here forever now ❤
Hi I'm new here! I played awbw a few years ago just casually with friends (mainly 1v1v1 maps) I think I looked up the advance wars 1+2 remake on the switch (wondering how well it turned out and how it was received), and that led youtube to recommending you Have been binging for the last month or so haha, 10/10 commentary and I especially like the little player intros/ backstories you give at the start
I found your channel after beating Fire Emblem 7 my favorite Fire emblem game. I wanted to see how people felt about the game and i found your Fire Emblem 7 Rebalanced patch and replayed the game it's been almost 3 years since then been watching ever since.
Hi I subscribed originally to watch your fire emblem content but I loved advance wars as a kid and I'm currently replaying the games. Watching your competitive commentaries has actually improved my play for the campaigns and who knows maybe I'll try awbw at some point
I have no idea how i found your channel and i never played or seen advance wars before seeing it on your channel, but im fucking here for it. Its really fun to watch
Hey Mangs! New subscriber checking in here - I believe I found your channel through one of the videos you did on the Advance Wars: Reboot Camp. I don't play much Advance Wars now (and had no idea there was an online/competitive scene like this) but I definitely enjoy games like this and appreciate all the details and information you provide throughout your replay casts!
I am new, your video popped up. I think because they tweaked the algorithm. I was getting a lot of repeat recommendeds for the more popular challenge players. After culling them your videos started popping up. I played advance wars back on the gba and ds when I was a squib.
Fun Fact an Eagle Bomber with 1 comm tower will do 91%-98% to an Andy tank on a City. A Grimm Battle Copter with 1 comm tower will do 53% - 60% to an Andy tank on a City. Assuming a full health Tank it will require 2 shots from both to break through. 2 Battle Copters Cost less than 1 Bomber. Grimm has very good Battle Copters as the defense penalty does not matter as much with them.
Mangs: if you're new here, you may not know who Grimm Guy is.
Me: I am not, and I do know.
Mangs: ... and for the people who do know who Grimm Guy is, I don't think you're gonna complain about seeing another Grimm Guy game.
Me: very true, please continue.
I’m complaining about a Grimm game when we could have two
You'll have to go back and watch some of the older videos, Grimmguy is great because grimm is fun.
@@VainerCactus0 oh he is. But I've been following Mangs for several years now, and I'm well aware of what Grimm Guy is all about.
A very Grimm Guy match; mindful buildup before Grimm Guy says "It's Grimming Time!" and dusts his knuckles on them for the easy clap
Isn't every game a Grimm game whe he's sitting in the chair talking to us every video?
You haven't seen Mangs' streak with chairs it seems.
I completely understand that resign. He had lost in the north. Completely ran out of steam in the south AND his HQ was getting capped. My dude was toast.
Yeah, even if he won the coinflip all it would do is dely the cap for a turn and then he would have to completely wipe out that infantry to prevent the cap as it would be at 19.

Mangs: It's obvious who Grimm Guy is.
Me: It's Mangs.
Mangs is too dumb
Yes, same hair style too 🤣
Voice of Akasha
@@DeejusFan4Ever real?
Mangs: I've never seen an HQ cap on this map
Grimm Guy: How 'bout I change that?
Other casting matches: interesting... hmmmm background nosie
grimm guy matches: MUST WATCH IN FULL
At 14:26 Hawke has to delete the medium tank for an Anti-Air, and he didn't even get powercharge. So he just lost 16k value for nothing, and that's a whole turn of income almost. Wonder if he misclicked that build?
that and the open HQ are major errors. Maybe he was distracted who knows
En el ataque a la base, había 3 tanques y 2 helicópteros, el simplemente hizo tec up para poder frenar el ataque, lo que no contaba es que le podia hacer base block con los helicópteros.
He was worried about the nearby tank hitting the anti air hard enough that the copters could finish it. An MD tank could at least sit on the base and not immediately die, avoiding a base lock. But this strategy ignored that the battle copters could just box the tank in.
The only thing I can think of is he thought grim would knuckle duster again and hit the aa with the 8hp tank.
I didn't notice that until I saw his Anti-Air and went "Huh? Did he delete the MD?!" and scrolled back to check. He didn't even take a cursory potshot at the B-Copters or anything, even though it was free charge! I think he may have been distracted, or maybe inebriated.
I was just wondering how Grimm Guy was doing! Glad to see he’s still at it!
Grimm: in my country with resolve our problems with good food.
Hawke: Really?
Grimm: but we are not in Gold Comet, RIGHT?
Every time I think he's on the backfoot he comes back and just gut punches the enemy army. He's an impressive player to watch
Can't never have too much Grimm Guy in our life I Say
Grimm Guy has blessed us
The YT algorithm decided to bless me with putting your video in my recommended. I have to say, it's awesome to see this game has a competitive scene. I loved playing Advanced Wars: Dual Strike when I was a kid, and was obsessed with making maps on it. Seeing people play these games far better than I ever did brings joy to my soul XD
Okay, Mangs, keep your secrets. We won't know who he really is)
That resignation was respectable. It was all downhill from there. GGs
If you have the damage calculator open, you can just hover over a unit and press A and D to set the attacking and defending units. It’s way quicker and more comfortable!
He straight up barbequed him
That's my man ♥
Grimm guy is the biggest memelord
Grimm is the brawn.
And Grimm Guy is the brains.
Grimm Guy games are always a good watch. Jazz Jackrabbit got a really good soundtrack too. Gonna be a good one.
Grimm Guy that’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time.
Grimm Guy is proof that the meta will never beat skill. More often then not the meta is actually a hinderance to creativity and strategy.
Big fan of refusing to be a meta sheep in anything I play.
GrimmGuy content has returned! Hell yeah!
Grimm Guy might be my favorite player to spectate. Truly channels the gigachad energy the Grimm Reaper gives off.
He sacced the infantry to deny to tower for one turn to get power and to be the first to capture a tower for his attack since the other player hadn't captured a tower at this point. The infantry at this point served its purpose, it captured buildings. He sacced it like a pawn in chess.

Really cool to see that there is a competetive scene for this game. I basically played advance wars non-stop growing up.
How to play grimm: never take damage.
Seeing Mangs dancing at the start made me happy😂 someone clip that and make an AMV, Short or something😂
your shiny head is a beacon to all of us lost souls
Hi I just wandered in here off the algorithm. The last time i checked in to AWBW it was literally a new creation, kind of janky and weird, and nobody wanted to play it in my friend group. Now it seems to be flourishing! Very cool!
New creation? So that was over 15 years ago? Zamn
@@panthekirb7561 It was incredibly long ago. Must have been 2011 or something? i was still in college lol.
12:05 Hawke should have used Black Wave here. He counter attacks Grimm, but sets up his units to get first struck with a Knuckleduster.

Yep!! We should see more GRIMM GUY games!!
I found your channel from playing AW: Reboot Camp and getting back into the series. Probably my favorite series of all time.

14:30 I missed it at first, but they had to sacrifice a full hp medium tank to build an anti air there.
Yo wake up, new Grimm Guy replay is out! You love to see it.
I would have considered this match up basically impossible. That is truly impressive.
I watch Advance Wars stuff for fun, very glad I found it from randomly being recommended your channel.
Grimm Guy's clearly got a _very solid_ grip on the game, and as only a viewer, I very much do not.

Love seeing another Grimm Guy match. Thanks for the commentary.

What a fun game I just stumbled onto
Ah yes i remember playing this guy and were suprised how good he played even against higher Tier COs. Got defeated by him big time.
The most scary moment is when the donut guy reload his arms like Henry Cavill.
We love Grimm Guy!
Grimm Guy is love
Grimm Guy is life
Hi I'm new here!
I played awbw a few years ago just casually with friends (mainly 1v1v1 maps)
I think I looked up the advance wars 1+2 remake on the switch (wondering how well it turned out and how it was received), and that led youtube to recommending you
Have been binging for the last month or so haha, 10/10 commentary and I especially like the little player intros/ backstories you give at the start
I see Grimm, I give it a like
The youtube algoritm decided that one of your Voice of Akasha reviews should go viral to me and all my gamer friends
Thanks UA-cam
randomly came into my recommended, not really into advanced wars but enjoy your commentary. thanks for the content!
I found your channel after beating Fire Emblem 7 my favorite Fire emblem game. I wanted to see how people felt about the game and i found your Fire Emblem 7 Rebalanced patch and replayed the game it's been almost 3 years since then been watching ever since.
I'm a new subscriber, and I found your channel a few days ago due to the algorithm. I would absolutely love to watch a grimm guy video every month
hey Mangs! I love playing Advanced Wars since it first came out, and I had no idea there was a competitve scene. very cool.
You should dress up as Grim for the Halloween stream
You know if you give Grimm Dr Eggman's mustache he will look like a brother to Eggman
It's Robotnik
Greggman?
Just when I was wondering what was of Grimm Guy and Mangs delivers 🥚👍🏼

I was just rewatching some of your casted grimm guy games like yesterday. What a funny coincidence lol
Thanks for this gameplay, we love grimm guy and we want more of his gameplay !

I found your channel from the Spams Transport Copters video popping up in my recommended. I finally found your Advance Wars playlist!
I'd give anything to see that Mangs/Deejus_ VS Grimm Guy/Grimm Girl you got cookin there
Found your chanel because of the switch remake, it made me nostalgique and I ended up searching old AW video :D
I love those Jackrabbit songs😍😎

Always fun to see a Grimm guy video
you forgot the most important part: some error that makes us look at grimm's belly while you fix it
Love the AWBW videos as always : )
I was starving for content after the re-boot release and the algorithm provided
Fun Fact an Eagle Bomber with 1 comm tower will do 91%-98% to an Andy tank on a City.
A Grimm Battle Copter with 1 comm tower will do 53% - 60% to an Andy tank on a City.
Assuming a full health Tank it will require 2 shots from both to break through.
2 Battle Copters Cost less than 1 Bomber. Grimm has very good Battle Copters as the defense penalty does not matter as much with them.
Bwangs bringing more advance wars content. It's good to have the game living through its fangames.
I'm not new, but I came for the cooking video.
New here, I subscribed, saw you randomly off Algorithm. Please keep making videos of the top players !!! Thanks !
