What I mean is, remember the way wards used to work? No gold for killing wards, there used to be little vision in pub games - you could mine anywhere!

Different game now, you have 10 sentry wards to put down and the information from them makes techies hard.

Its a real shame as it gave another way to play which I think dota has lost. I remember cancer lancer pushing PL - now its arc warden.

Pushing with deso cuirass meant something. Now its just about glyphs and the towers die so fast.

What happened to jungling? Used to be a whole bunch of heros could jungle level 1 and create unique lanes and gameplay experiences

As a young lad at sea, when the waves were smashing the boat I was dreaming of what dota could be with new heros who might increase armour or attack levels of the wave creeps - that we might be able to spawn more or even different kinds from a rax. Saving up for a boss creep to help push that wave...

Now its all about destroying people in 2 mins.

Strafe has been the main power of clinkz dated back to dota when its own by blizzard. Also the ulti cosuming any creep has been his ult where he can safe himself being back to full health even his HP reach 1.

Now they change it to different skill where you can’t really burst the enemy if he side step to the left or right when the skill is used.

But it is the fact and the hero already change same as techies. So we adapt to it.

remember how treant used to work? how razor used to work? how weaver used to work? probably not, you are too young my friend and never played dota 1, nowadays if you build first item, radiance, on treant, weaver or razor you are considered as troll, this is all the thanks we veterans get for supporting this game for years.

I miss all those LOTR maps from WC3 - man.... remember balins tomb and getting legolas?! or camping the keep with archers on helms deep. Even games like parasite - just leagues ahead of its time. Basic tower defence games hit mobile for billions - plants vs zombies is just a really rubbish tower defence XD

Old techies was garbage. 99% of old techies players didnt do ANYTHING for their team. Every time someone picked techies it was a 5v4v1. In MAYBE 1% of cases old techies was useful. This new techies is much better. Theyre actually part of the game now instead of off solo playing with green mines.

you just dont get it bro - its REDMINES being stacked that was the joy. Sure, you can take some greens for your "rampage style" 5 man push defence. But it was always about going round a corner and BOOM - dead.

Tht was the power of techies. You say did nothing? I say -- yeah im not going for rosh or the rune without wards.

i liked the most vampirism fire, island defense, dark ages of warcraft and these "hero siege" maps

i don't agree with you, old techies was a pain in the arse, every game that had that nasty techies in it would be 50+min long all because of that afk mining jungle. now im happy about the new techies because it's more of a team player rather than a bomb planting rat that makes your game 60 minute long.

Again thats because you are too linear - have you played a lot of things like FPS before?

bros I know how techies ruined our mind or whatever but I still miss that I love to play them so many hero can counter them even sentry ward and gem they are so many impact to waste enemy gold. I know how value bring this game to esports but still miss them. They was still treasure of generation
