Yeah, laser is imba. They only started making it precise last few patches. Warlock is the only person I can think off who can effectively lane him, maybe a really good viper/sil.
Well, I can take him with Enchantress or some other hero with orb walking unless he goes rune hunting with a bottle. Then I’m pretty much done since nothing’s going to stop him from regenerating his hp/mana all the time. He usually beats me to the rune if I try to go rune hunting too. Fuck Tinker.
well then, would you be good enough to point the error in my post? It’s true that that when opponents have gems there is little he can lend in front to front confrontations. I don’t think you can use the hero outside of pubs. No matter what you try to equip him with to increase his battle potential. Give any strat, i’ve tried it… i’ve experimented giving him items such as desolator & radiance to increase his damage, maelstorm for a random chain lighting, manta to help me stick a stasis during a war, hell i’ve even gotten him a Helm just for the sake of possesing a warden for a stunner… and realy, from all the experiments i’ve tried, the best techies is a techs who is manily build for support, pushing and defending. Ginso, euls…
And i still say that techies killing potential is still good (regardless if the opponents have gems) if you have VS or pudge as your ally.
so uh… where the fuck do I save the map, cuz I really wanna play, but I can’t
Wow, way to try out all the worst possible items for damage. Maelstrom is only good for chars with fast ias. Techies… not exactly the best ias. Techies is an excellent farmer, you just need euls and a BoT, and you can farm like a madman. Then Guinsoo, Skadi, Butterfly, it’s gg. You’re not trying to be pure dps, you’re going to be a hex + slow, while dealing all the damage you can. Not to mention stasis trap is ridiculous.

sylbear can lane a techies easily. IMO if bear had all items of his choice he’d be best hero in game.
well, most of them wasn’t just for the damage, some where like for added abilities or a bag of tricks, such as illusions and a random chain lightning… i really don’t know why i went with those items. It was all an experiment… I just gave an example that tring to go battle techies isn’t a real good idea. Most dedicated techies players really are that desperate to still be dangerous regardless of the opponents having gems. read some faqs in dota-allstars and some suggest building him with 2 agies and 2 DR’s… I myself am a dedicated techies player, and in the past I tried all sorts of shit with him. i’ve stuck with techies ever since so there isn’t a build that i haven’t experimented. i’ve experimented him with Helm of Demnominator just for the sake of using the warden creep for his stun ability… and every high damage item from buriza to DR…shit like that. I was pretty desperate trying to make the ultimate blood techies and well, all of those builds were shit.
The build I suggest helps your team the most, and helps you survive. You have… evasion (butterfly), a slow (skadi), damage (guinsoo/butter/skadi), hex (guinsoo, traps), and tons of hp. (skadi)
man i’ve played like 5 hours a day for past 3 years
dota-allstars faqs are 50/50 same for dota-portal
I get out of work early have 2 ouces of some fine sticky icky and I am down to play all night who is down? add me kungu_gi_jesus I can host with my godlike connection and even more godlike pc
ill get at you… ill prolly be up late again playing, gotta work on my QoP some more :\ shes gdlk
mine is: Slogan8r
because he’s only REALLY good for about 15 minutes of the game and unless you’re in a clan and can end the game in 30, his power isn’t that great once your opponents actually have hp and higher damage. he can manta push but thats kind of useless if you’re in a game that can end in 30 minutes!
so essentially, he’s godlike for the first 20 minutes of the game and then he becomes a really good pusher if you get the right item build, otherwise he’s fucking horrible. most heroes that have really high damage nukes suck pretty hard past like, level 14. except lina and qop.
although yeah its pretty hard to lane against him unless you have a spell shutdown, really high survivability or can nuke toe to toe.
Anyone wanna get some games in today?
iya i like the build, it’s just i get skadi before buttefly and most of the time the game is near it’s end before i manage to get that item. I haven’t tried butterfly with techies as much, the majority of my game length doesn’t allow me to do so. Sometimes i also go for necro instead when i feel its needed.
Has anyone played any of the new heroes yet? I haven’t played any of them yet (only play -arem games for the most part), so I dunno any kind of item builds/talent builds to use with them.
anyone down to game ?
i’ve only tried sacred warrior and storm, i haven’t played the others yet. But i have seen them in action.
with huskar my basic core build is 3 bracers a heart and treads/BoT. If i have enough money and time i replace one of the bracers with something. But most of my games ends with 3 bracers, heart, and treads in my inventory.
lol last night I was owning the shit out of people with the Sniper, I had enough money by the end of the game that I had power treads, sange/yasha, TWO Butterflies and an extra eaglehorn. Had like 14 kills and no deaths lol.
I think I wanna move on to a different kinda hero, I’ve only been playing the nub range heroes like clinkz and sniper. I think the nerubian assasin looks like fun, any tips on playing him?
