    Unlimited mines and a rather high amount of damage in a small amount of time might sound OP...But in my opinion, techies is STILL a terrible hero. You need one thing and one thing only, a competent team. If you properly ward/de-ward and buy a gem rather early and pick counters if possible(unless he picks last), then he shouldn't be a problem AT ALL. He mines, you demine, he gets no cash and becomes more and more useless as the game goes on, and then it basically becomes a 5v4 because he has no chance late game without any cash.

    So no, he isn't OP. "Git gud" and he shouldn't be a problem. :)

      techies main power is stalling the game long enough so that carries get all farmed and overpowered while you don't get enough gold from the towers

        He's very hard to deal with in lane though since best case scenario you get him to suicide defensively, but often he'll at least get a kill out of it. Also it's tough to even attempt a kill since you won't know if he mined a juke spot earlier

          last time i picked techies there was an insta furion pick with necro 3 rush - lost the game pretty hard, so yes he gets countered easily, besides i haven't seen him in ranked for a long time so yea...

            you need to be smart with your mines, have multiple locations for the main mines, and use the ult to set up fighint spots for your team8s, if they have a gem, use the high ground for your advantage.
            The new techies needs xp, he cant just put mines everywhere, if you do that you will lose the game, go offlane and lech some xp, make the life of the enemy carry hard, since you can easily kill him with the suicide, and harass him with your long atack range.

              Techies actually combos well with quite a few heroes: Magnus (Skewer enemies into mines), Pudge (Hook into mines), Rubik (Telekinesis into mines), Invoker (Deaf. blast into mines).

              I really hate Techies, I completely agree with you. But he does serve a purpose, and a good techies player can create the space needed for his carries to excel. He causes the enemy to invest money into sentries, as well as be cautious with where they engage or attempt ganks. He excels in area-denial and can punish the enemy that gets too greedy!

              Also, he is perfect for defending tier 3's; he can setup mines that allow you to stop the enemy push in a heartbeat
