This was a fantastic coaching session, hope you all are able to learn from several of the points we touched on :) Happy new year! Here's to a great 2021 for everyone around the world, may the year be kind to you, may you be successful in your goals and may you be happy and healthy.

everybody ganster until bsj pause the video and they hear "this is my question for you..."

Coach BSJ : "Lets think about doing something creative when you're playing against miracle at TI" Topson Gyro at TI9: MY TIME HAS COME

That face BSJ makes when asking about mmr cracks me up each time xD

I feel like a lot of pro-level pubs look weird because they are thinking one step ahead. Sometimes, the lanes look overly passive and easy because the players know their limits. Meanwhile, a lesser player would play more aggressive and get punished for it. For example, rtz might be completely uncontested in lane vs a Doom or whatnot, but then he leaves at level 5 because he knows he can't be there on level 6. To plebs, it looks like he's leaving a freefarm-lane, but he's actually just thinking one step further.

I come from Aikido in in my dojo theri attitude was, "fundamentals fundamentals fundamentals. You spend most of your time being thrown to the floor and learning how to stand back up. It sounds simple but your learn in your bones which way is up which way is down, how to receive force, how to give it, how to dodge while in free-fall. It's a bit like professional wrestling camp. My point is that we learned exactly what to feel . We learned how to not have to think about what we were doing, how to take a fall, swing a sword, etc. I appreciate your attempts to make your lessons visceral. To make your students feel the urgency of the game. Many of the lessons of aikido apply to any type of conflict and I hear your language echoed on the mat. You talk about lack of urgency. You talk about constantly trying to behave optimally from one moment to the next as a way to accumulate successes. You talk about accumulating successes as a path to victory. You talk about playing for one's self, such as thinking about personal risk reward as a reason to not charge into unwinnable fights. These are lessons in self assessment. I hear the fear in your voice when your lesson is, "it's simple and keep working on your fundamentals." The questions you ask yourself, such as, "How long will it take for them to realize this on their own?" "It's really that easy, why cant' they see it?" See the point is that this is what refinement is. It's the stripping away of the unnecessary. Your lesson, that you have learned and continue to learn and learn again is that the game is far far simpler than we fear. Let me leave you with something from Aikido that vaguely more concrete than all of the fluff I've said so far. In aikido, a practice born from fighting with and against swords, speed is of the essence. If you are fast enough, you can dance on the edge of a blade. If you're not fast enough, you're minced meat, presumably. You quickly learn that the quickest one can move is through falling. If you ant to move in a direction you learn of to fall in that direction. If you want to swing your blade quickly you fall towards your target and let your falling weight drag the your blade towards your opponent. In the end it all becomes falling, either falling towards your opponent or way from their strike. So in Dota, you should also be moving as though you're falling. Either falling into your opponents or away. Towards your farm and away from their ganks. Towards objectives you intend to take or back to defend the ones you opponent intends to take. Falling falling falling. That's how urgent you should feel like you'll falling where you have to be.

For the Algorithm

BSJ’s though love is beautiful. If i get coached like this i would definitely remember the lessons this man has been drilling in to my head or else i wouldn’t be able to sleep at night.

I've watched this video a thousand times while I'm playing, and every single time BSJ gets to the "but dude, look at this farm bro" part, I feel so good 😎🔥🥂

I wish I discovered this channel earlier the content is so good

every time, every, single, time, the intro comes on, even at 3am in bed, i always say it out loud with you and do the hand movements, 'banana slamma JAM' fukkin luv it bro fukkin luv your coaching bro

Take a shot when bsj says "bro" during the wk replay

"It is not that I think Arteezy is trash. I mean, he IS [...]" lmfao

Absolutely loved this one, thanks!

i really like the bit at the end about communication and letting other people play thier heros and how it makes the game chill

Man you're on fire this session. If I signed up for coaching and I got coached half the amount that this guy got, I'd give a 5 star review

Well spent 1 hour 30 minutes of my time, learned lots of stuff personally as a carry, keep up the good work bsj!

Love this session bro! Happy new year!

BSJ your content is seriosuly amazing. The way you can breakdown the game and explain these concepts is 10/10. Before watching your videos I was in the 4k MMR bracket for 3 years or so, and I'm serious here, almost everything I did in the game was pure instinct. Rarely I would consciously think about where to play on the map, how to respond to enemy pressure, etc. The most I would try to think about were lane matchups and draft, but what I thought was usually wrong anyways because I didn't think about these other important concepts. BSJ literally opened my eyes to Dota After I started to understand what he is talking about, and consciously thinking about things, it's like Dota became a different game. I'm currently 5.9k and still have over 50% winrate in the last 20 games, so still improving MMR. Thank you BSJ, honestly Valve should hire you to make some advanced in-game tutorial and guides

Starts with 1 set of tangoes and one criclet instead. The courrier will bring you the other with the wraith band. This gave me 1 more brain cell. Thanks BSJ.

Happy new year BSJ and other slammers!

Man I love u u know u was the reason to go back to this game. U are smart and you understand dota 2 as it should be

Happy new years Bsj love you bro

great video as always

Greatjob BSJ

I don't know about you guys, but whenever someone asks me to make plays in pubs I feel so obliged to follow them even if it seems not a good idea. Like if someone tells me to rosh at the very start of the game, I'll be like "Let's go bro I got us 4 salves, ezpz"

I just realized i was watching the new year content. Happy new year bsj:))

Thank you Bsj :)

The only way I care about killing people is when they stand between me and Creeps , LMAO

Hey BSJ, just wanna say thanks, I watched your wraith king video since the new patch and went from 650 to 1020 MMR Been playiing ranked for apmost 3 months now and that is no doubt the most reliable strat ive been able to use. Unfortunately, now I'm a one trick pony. But who cares. HAHAHA happy new year and more power to you.

Yo this is some top tier coaching right there

love these vids

1:25:19 "You'll never guess" I instantly knew it was EE 😂😂🤣

Since i started watching BSJ. My MMR jumped from 2800 to 3600++ now. Thanks BSJ! Best dota2 gameplay tips!

this video is the best content of dota on youtube man

From archon 5 to divine 1 from watching bsj contents(playing at SEA sever). Great content.

this was so nice taking stuff away from this.! like what you gain or lose from not doing or doing

The coach is great, full of enthusiasm lmao.

Great content i watched this replay then won 3 mk games in a row after a 4 game losing streak

Just started DOTA2 in Feb 2021. I now reached Guardian 1. 38 years old but never too late to learn new tricks! Thanks Brian.

NICE !!

BSJ is a God!

"start thinking of creative shit when you play Miracle~ against TI" Miracle is truly built different

I keep forgetting that the safe laner after the laning phase should always be playing on the offlane side and pressure there . All the games I’ve won as a safe laner was won because I kept pushing offlane and then if they made a play bot I would tp and wipe them all.. the games where I don’t know what to do is because I ended up forgetting and running around all lanes not realising why .. all I thought was I see creeps I kill .. this is literally why I died as a carry playing around the safe lane past the laning stage . Thx Bsj.

Watching better players getting coached taught me a lot. Thanks bsj for the hard work. And HNY mate

Wish i saw the networth graphs during this game, would be easier to understand whos actually getting more gold within each stage and why

So good

I think I know exactly which rtz wraith king game the guy's talking about. He was playing against mars who was just about to get his level 6 and a leshrac mid that just respawned. He cleared the wave so fast to get out of there before anything could happen. Moments later I noticed the leshrac actually tp-ed to his lane and went for the tower with mars.

top mid top mid actually making me win games , Thanks Bsj!

Best coach ever

bro i Love the new intro

Good coaching

Happy new year

it's been a while since he's done a carry coaching. I'm lookingforward to more carry content.

1:15:45 this but "How can they get it at 14:30, I can only get it at 22 !"

thanks maan

Decision making comes after learning to last hit properly, a good support will set you up kills like creeps but a bad carry will just see the last hits.

This will help me climb my mmr.

I love ur intro

BSJ IS A RAID BOSS

When BSJ was like, "You will never guess who taught me this." I was like, "If it's a tough guess, I'm gonna say Envy did."

awesome content, a lot to process though, should take notes.

malding BSJ... AdmiralBulldog will be proud

4:56 i hate that bloodlust so, so, so, so so so so so SOSOSOSOSOSOSOSOSO GOTDAYUNG MUCH ERRRRRMHHHGGGGGG

"Bro, it is all about who farms more creeps, Bro..."- Arteezy when his ancient is being taken

But dude, look at this farm bro 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍🔥

Hey man, I think your coaching would be even better if you asked more open ended questions to your pupils! Nice video btw, enjoying it.

350 mmr gain in a month in herald bracket, 40 more for crusader.i play in SEA server. Been playing the game since October. Thanks bsj :) keep it coming n kindly lets us know how to get coached by you . I'm from INDIA

BSJ is the Vince Russo of dota

He almost spilled the beans that he doesn't give a crap about the grand canyon

Just hit the creeps bro

You passion for killing creeps is adorable

hey as a carry is it ok to always push the wave or static thhe wave in front ur tower

changing title i see

bsj is a god

Happy New Year!

When i can't answer the questions bsj threw at the guy i realized that i surely am not a 4k player

Keep up

Yep.

good content

I am very proud to say that I thought about this today in my game as AM. I was against a necro drow lane and had a rubick with me. I was able to steal a rune and we got all 4 so I just did a quelling blade ring of health straight... Got tangoes after

WOW IT IS WORKIN? :O

If you dont mind sir, may i ask what is your videocard?

i wanna share something with you BSJ. this is so fucking weird but every time i watch a coaching session or a guide or whatever, i queue and get like 24 0 as pos 1 man. other times i suuuuuuuuuuuck. i know now that the idea of thinking during the game is every thing

great session, but i wish you'd slow down to 1x speed during the fights!

KZfaq algorithm likes this.

Dude sometimes bsj scares the shit out of me.

my problem is whenever i get in the game i forget everything i learned from your videos and play like the usual trash :(

I hope BSJ will someday yell at me and watch my replays

Holy shit. I never knew Ashton Kutcher was such an intense DotA coach.

ALGORITHM

Happy Newb Year!

🐐

was someone showering? It keeps turning off and on.

BSJ what if you farm towards the AM lane ie. middle right neut camps x3/4 --> triangle --> puck / WD smoke tier 2 top into a quick chrono on AM then continue farming patterns or pressure top tower if it's up etc. Wouldn't this still be viable and still option 2? I ask this as I'd feel abit gutted if my chrono is off cd and im just hitting creeps mindlessly for a few minutes granted this play would need synergy / my team coming onboard but it'd still be farming while also reducing AM's farm?

Bsj: DotA is a simple Game... ? xD

nice

For the tubegorithm

Could someone link me to his old coaching session ?
