          what exactly are you scripting techies for

          perfectly stacked land mines?

          instantly suicide before silence/stuns instagib you?

              Instant hex/euls when someone blinks on you, blowing up the perfect amount of remote mines to kill, blowing up the remote mines when they can kill without you doing anything, forcestaffs anyone facing your mines automatically... You know just a small advantage...

                      god bless i dont want to play against techies in next 20 years

                      matrice

                        As long as techies will not be played as a core, he will continue to suck in competitive

                        TripleSteal-

                          if its about rt_apuctokpat, then a) hes bad and b) hes mostly spamming meepo

                          Vem Comigo

                            no he isnt, to weak on the offlane, to weak to be a mid, to static to be a good sup, needs lvls to do something.
                            Until they buff the normal mine dmg he wont be playable.

                            arin

                              didnt some metaforgers play techies on mid with pretty good results when he came out

                                  I hope techies never gets buffed ever what a dumpster fucking hero

                                  matrice

                                    @Hook And Roll, you know, you can play a dual offlane with techies farming, and something harassing / put people in his mine. you get rid of his low damage issue for the laning stage this way.
                                    Or simply when you have something like a puck, that scale extremly bad, he just has to leave space for techies when he has dagger / dagger+veil.

                                    Apart from the sily combo with tuskar, this techies is the strongest techies we ever had since they trashed him with the removal of mixed damage. (as long as you play him as a core ofc -and when you face ultra weak heroes 1v1 during laning phase (like potm) you can definitly put techies against them-).

                                    It's exactly like naga, or arc warden, the hero will shine when he will be played correctly. (check what aui did during ti with techies in game WITHOUT tuskar in his team, and you'll be pretty close to what you have to do)

                                      he is good early game... just buy orb of venom and blight stone and go safe lane and start harrassing ppl.. after that buy blink and go suicide squad

                                        He actually has high armor and range. Buy nulls and maybe with drow on your team he could become a very strong offlaner. Techies is good right now if You are really good with him. I guess slack's guide is still relevent.

                                        dunce

                                          I wish techies was removed from the game.

                                            i actually have a techies only account, i always max suicide and just spam land mines during laning. i go soul ring - boots of speed - blink - medallion, if i get it early enough i get a lot of kills but if i fail the laning phase i start falling off badly

                                            Shepard

                                              all u need for techies, is techies-trained magnus like me... few months ago i was plying like half of matches on magnus with friends on techies... played that lately too on ranked and won (yeah trash bracket i cant leave it my heroes are team heroes and theres noone to play with :( )
