Frustrating life of Tinker. Need help? in General Discussion

    Lately, I've been playing alot of tinker games and playing him on mid.
    By any means I'm no good mid player, but not bad Either. (It's my least fav role)

    http://dotabuff.com/matches/620255404 - We won, Was a base race. Luckily kept Lycan permahexed.
    "Pudge and VS be like - Know what? Let's just leave their carry to farm. Camp and Fuck up tinker on mid so he gets frustrated. Ward his ancients so it doesnt spawn and make his whole life miserable. Deward his Wards so he is blinded like a fool.

    http://dotabuff.com/matches/623360667 - Mirana Lost to Riki SOLO.
    Was up against Invoker. Same thing happened, Rhasta and Skywrath Camping MID.

    http://dotabuff.com/matches/623435001 Was an Easy game.
    Was up against razor. Dazzle dewarded and was camping for 5 whole minutes. I was monitoring his level and it didn't went up since minute 2 to minute 7. He was very enthusiastic about Ward Blocking my Ancient camp 3times.

    They just want to fuck me really hard, OR Is tinker really that easy to gank who looks like SF to everyone?
    Do I need to stop playing him? any suggestions? BTW It's on 4.3k - 4.4k MMR

        Sorry bout that. Didn't really know how to play tinker until about 15 games.

          either you switch up your playstyle and go full nuke, or just focus on the lane. people can't really gank you into march, OR double nuke, unless you are stunlocked, but if they commit to warding and camping you, your other 2 lanes win by themselves, so you're impacting the game regardless, you just have to have a backup plan to comeback after being shutdown, like stacking anc later on, or multi stack/killing jungle neutrals. it's really that simple.

            Deward your ancients if possible, if you can't then they are also losing out by standing there dewarding. Focus on winning mid then. As radiant you could stack jungle too. If they come to gank you, I don't mind. They're wasting farm on the side lanes for 4 lasthits.

            Bottle crow if they control runes, and you still should max march whenever possible to help you push lanes to get runes and its perfect for when they dive you under tower. 2 points in laser will also suffice.
