IRC chatter should remain in IRC - http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=tl.dota2

Posts that relate to topics with their own thread, such as in News, Tournaments or Strategy should go in those threads.

The hero is fine. Waga has been raising his MMR by instalocking this OP hero.

He seems to be losing as much as he's winning, which for waga almost assuredly means he's lowering his mmr.

Yes I know you were being somewhat sarcastic.

not too relevant but techies is waga's 4th lowest KDA hero.

anyway 8-6 results are hardly promising imo

KDA is kinda fucked for techies considering he suicides a lot, but deaths dont hurt him nearly as much, so its even less relevant than for other heroes.

Also u don't really rack up assists as techies
(talking about dotabuff kda which is actually the dumbest stat but they don't show real K/D ratio. not that thats the best stat either but its better than kda lol)

From what I can tell, techies is all about limiting map control, making opponents movements inefficient, and weakening their ability to gank, not about KDA.

But honestly i dunno

I think it depends. With a single mana regen item + Soul Ring, Techies farm incredibly quickly, so you can actually build up enough to be pretty dangerous in a fight.

Dotabuff watch: Techies has been played more times in the last 48 hours than Visage has been played in the last month.

Pudge's win rate is up 1.4% since 2 days ago, presumably because he both has a good matchup with Techies and obvious synergy with mines.

Faceless Void lost about 10% of his market share in the last 2 days, presumably because many FotW pickers abandoned him. Similarly, Skywrath Mage's stock is down 13%.

Sounds like a Nahaz stat

Nahaz watch: Nahaz has been mentioned in more stats having nothing to do with Dota in the last 48 hours than his relevant Dota-related stats during the past month
When in doubt, just believe in yourself and press buttons
