First, let me say that I gave up hope on this whole "posting to reddit=change" thing. I didn't think anyone cared, and then I saw
Techies players: I call to you to carry on the good fight, and don't give up! Fight!
Second, I would like to echo the feelings of others and myself with some additional commentary on Techies as they currently stand: I believe a large issue with Techies' current kit is how one-sided and combo reliant they are. As JumboHiggings mentioned in their post, Techies' talents seem to favor the blast off combo build. I believe it would be much appreciated if the "Mine laying" or alternate playstyles for Techies to see some love as well. In any case, I believe that it is the reliance on Techies' E that makes them feel so different from their previous version. Simply put, if I didn't have to save so many bombs for teamfights I would feel better trying to place bombs again.
Let's hope that the patch comes out today and something happens with Techies.
Sorry for the short post today. As I said in the beginning, I didn't even plan on making this post today.
