any hero can force your team into a 4vs5. I dont see whats wrong with a hero that has a low cd aoe stun and several aoe high damage attacks.
You can use remotes every 10 seconds. That is about 550 damage or so every 10 seconds, as an aoe... Realistically you will use 2 maybe 3 at the most during a fight. Third one is generally used to pick off a runner. Remotes can also be used as an excellent harass due to the bomb and cast range. We are excellent at countering slarks and meepos. You can still use bombs to hit slark while he is in his ult, as well as statis will go off on him in his ult.
Before techies were nerfed we had a 6 second aoe stun. Now it is only 4 or so, but still, four seconds when the cd is only like 6 seconds or so? You can easily lock down a hero for 8 seconds no problem. 12 seconds if you have your sheep stick or euls. Sniper and SK are really the only heroes that are a pain in the ass...
So many heroes work wonders with techies, Mag, Pudge, Sniper, LC, etc.

This is definitely the best counter-argument to my post. I tried so hard and failed to think of a comeback to this rofl

Re: tombs vs mines
pretty much lols ... thats the main reason why people go "repick techies" everytime they see one
I had fun convincing someone otherwise
https://entgaming.net/findstats.php?id=9822624 - Not my best game, but definitely had fun considering we were 5vs4 after bara disced
If i recall correctly, this one was also damn funny https://entgaming.net/findstats.php?id=9744814 (and yes i was on my way of making mjollnir xD mjollnir/skadi on techies is so damn funny - besides all the dmg from mines, you also get to be an autoattack nub hero, which most people ignore cuz "its techies, he doens't deal any dmg" ... better look again

Because that guy went 1-10? People go 1-10 on every hero all the time. Not that I disagree with techies being bad news in a team overall.

True but most ppl sees techies as a bad hero due to the continous fails throughout time xd thats why lately once u go techies, its almost "gg techies,we lose" or if u random it they simply tell u to repick, failing to understand the potencial behind it

Re: tombs vs mines
No, it was how he played techies...
I can tell how good a player is generally by the items he gets at the start of a game. Techies has pretty much only 1 starting build that branches out into 2-3 building paths. If you deviate or do anything other than these builds you are not a very good techies. Period.
If you leave burn marks on the ground, you are a shit techies. Period.
If you bomb in bad locations, you are a shit techies. Period.

Re: tombs vs mines
yes it was already answered from the first reply. it is allowed, tomb is the best spell for dirge and has long countdown. the cd to waste it for techies mine is optional. this isnt a problem , tinkertonker
