Techies exist to sap the fun out of Dota.

But to be honest, there are many heroes like that.

In Techies defense, he doesn't start strong and his late game isn't as scary as, say, a farmed Lycan.

Still, he is the flavor of the week and I deserve his 5 minutes of dota fame. Except interest on him falls drastically as people realize picking Techies isn't an easy I-win button despite the easy first blood.
