LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL Tauren Chieftain is so fucking ridiculously op.
Nerfs in .61 guaranteed. His ult is godly.
omfg 6.60 out finally
Ya i remember it back then granted i didn’t play it so often but i was always sylvanas because cold arrows were rigged back then lol. would slow to 50 and attack was slowed to 40 i think could be wrong long time ago. I just remember owning with her.
HAHA, so is that damn Ancestor rage skill. That shit damages anything it touches plus gives him movement speed when it returns. That guy is just too imba… I’m so going to career this hero.
should we start giving out builds for this guy?
Oh shit, new version out and SRK is actually playing?
I gotta say I dig the new sniper scatter shot… It’s like a non-channelling warlock slow, with interrupts and damage… Pretty nice.
Batrider’s rope n drag is pretty goddamn sweet too.
^_-;
If we play again tonight I’ll actually get my ass up and off of wifi so I won’t be dropping every 2 seconds!
lol new guy gets bf and hes over op lol
Batrider looks like a ridiculous harasser… AoE slow with a burn, running over terrain, and that drag will be even better than VS’s swap. Looks crazy.
let the silly bat rider combos begin
Wow, i’ll try 6.60 this weekend!
I’m always nervous when a team mate picks Techies, it’s like a sure loose for the match because of the gem factor that ruins the entire potential to the team. I agree with your statement here; Techies is nothing else but a fun character and sadly his game is just so one dimensional making him easy to fight against. Is there any way a Techies can be deadly in serious matches?
How good is alchemist?
That batrider is 10x cheaper than Tauren and probably even mirana when she just came out.
IMO, Allot of people have this “Techies = Noob” rant but IMO, i think techies is seriously the hardest hero to use. There is a way to be effective with him and it isn’t just planting mines and killing a group of heroes. because lets face it! At this time, everyone knows techies’ tricks… around level 6, he’ll most likely place remote mines at the center or near the towers or place mines at a shop. When the game reaches late game, it’s rather difficult to make a package of bombs that would be useful because of the high HP and armor, and any true sight ability/item. This is the main reason why allot have problems with a techies on their team. It’s predictable. Sure one strat is to plant mines all over the fog areas, while the greatest poster doesn’t go against the strat; there is a serious con in there and the con is the delay in leveling up and the time for farming… going around the map to plant 5 mines in a spot may hurt the team of the Techies player because when it boils down to the time where you have about 3+ enemy pushing your late (which means a hero clash) you are going to be useless if Techies’ level isn’t up to par. This is the real failure of the common techies players, they just try to show off by trying to get many kills and because of that it just fucks up the game. The Greatest Poster would only do this if he doesn’t see it hurtful to his time; the best strat to use for a good and useful techies is to stay in his lane and farm; just concentrate on that late game by getting the items that would benefit for hero clashes and also buff your HP/MANA/ARMOR.
Items such as Euls, ginso, Mythril/Molj, diffusal/manta, orchids ruby, necro, radiance, or shiva’s guard. These items help the teams offense and give you great reliability to the team during the hero clashes. Techies can be very deadly because he works well with all of these items. Just use your bombs to fuck up creep waves and to increase offense plus adding damage.
Having a techies with a molj/hex/curias is powerful and a great build but your lord likes manta on techies more then molj…
– Then again, 6.60 has allot of new item changes.
If I ever see a techies get a force staff and push someone into their mines I will laugh for about 2 minutes.
imo.
All these fucking changes…If it takes someone 30+ minutes to read a changelog that’s just retarded.
Cisco - you sound like an idiot saying ‘your god’ or ‘greatest ever’. Seriously man. I gave you credit with your first post copying dadesi’s builds but you’ve gone back to being a joke to me.
Chen 25 cd ulti with aghs…wow that can’t be real.
Whatsup guys, I’ve been playing this game a shitload, when are you guys normally on?
Add me as a friend, Bnet name is TaekwonV
dark seer vacuum -> mines
my bro and i did this and he went godlike without suicide in like 15 minutes
anyone wants to play i’m playing pubs right now,
/w intoinfinity for games on US west
also i got LC and Vent so i can host and shit
You pick techies and that team loses. Unless you play APEM games which usually offer no good competition. Techies isnt pickable in RD for a reason, he is the Dan of DoTA.
Anyways, Chieftain is an amazing hero. His auto attack and run speed are ridiculous at even level 1. Natural Order owns, and the new mode CD owns. Now to get adjusted to the organized shops
techies isn’t in RD because he can be first picked and have an unfair advantage of planting mines while the other team can’t do shit
i have not tried force staff yet on him which i will… 6.60 has allot of changes now and i have not acknowledged all of them because o the mad hype on Tauren; the greatest poster is still trying to figure out Tauren because he is defiently going to be part of my rooster so my new techies is at hold at the moment. Force staff and the new diffusal looks very nice for techies from what i imagine that is.
techies can be just as reliable when you focus being a good support hero.
Viper seems to be very strong now, it’s like he can kill any hero 1v1.
edit: Aghanims seems to freakin break the game. Anyone tried this on Spirit Breaker or Chen? it’s insane! Techies also gets a range boost. This is hot.
chen’s boost is crazy. SB’s boost is good, but i’d rather spend my money elsewhere.
