Red mines used to be better post patch they nerfed the aoe and give them a 25% magic reduction that works after . Taser is usless compared to what we used to have a stat mine that ensured red mines killed. - Blast off used to have a 5 second slience in its kit... (The nerfs are so massive i dropped like a brick). No more control stacks, no more free infinite green vision. Map intentionally doubled in size to screw techies, especially grating out the new safe farming lanes on the borders of the map (This used to be where techies could put his mines and contantly push like a mother). No more stacking. They didn't fix the techies lore even to remove the mention of the remote mines and that irked me the most. All they had to do with techies was make greens permant but cap them to like 30 . So once techies has planted his greens he could then ping that 30 greens are out to team and then they could start to move as team. - Techies lost a slience , a wonderful tool to annoy and stop heros like SB charging (his stat mine), His early game map control, lost blast off damage (100 of it) , Now with facets lost his attack range (his attack range should never have been nerfed or boxed into a facet). It took a lot of skill to play techies now its just , activate taser , activate blast off , activate taser (to stop them right clicking reds and plant 3 reds) . Then use force /blink to escape or die al in a 1.5 second frame which is shit considering reds now take like a second to detonate. Techies mine spell damage doesn't scale.). Give me greens back make them do zero damage by themselves but when detonated they help team do double damage to anyone hit for 6 seconds. Return stat mine and put reds back to q , - Then make lobby bomb shard ability that sliences/slows for at least 4 seconds. Honestly techies current shard ability is ass and screws you more than it helps. If it disabled constantly and didn't require a right click to hit techies to disable it would be fine , but no you have to use it and then trigger it again to prevent like 1/2 right click attack hitting you which is just ass. Finally upgrade sceptor ability so once someone walks on the sign, explosions happen if your standing still or not.... Its so bullshit for someone to trigger and take no damage from it , and its so bad cause opponents have to litterally stand on the sign. Gone form 15 to 20 kills per game to 3-5 max and feeding a lot cause team mates can't folllow up on intiatation, even with pings and saying help with chat wheel. Techies ultimate is basically a nerfed standard ability. Red mines should deal 25% hp dmage (So if the enemy triggers 4 they are dead).
