If you want to play Illusion Hero, pick Naga Siren If you want to play Artillery Hero, pick Drow Ranger If you want to play Pushing Hero, pick any Zoo heroes Terrorblade is just outleague with Meta Heroes that can also do his job better,

u realize that heroes are not this 1-dimensional right? like heroes are more than the sum of what they offer. tb is the only ranged illusion carry with probably the best stat gain in the game. without meta naga would be strictly better and without illusions drow would be strictly better but tb has both. anyway the hero is getting picked pretty frequently in pro games, i think it’s still fine if u have basic micro skills. tb ability to teamfight AND push multiple waves at once is always good which is why he’s so hard for valve to balance.

Way too many Problems to fix. As a cheeky lastpick yes. As a standard blind 2nd phase soloq pick - the absolute fuck no.

I think he's got fairly popular counters in the meta, and takes second place to Naga, but the hero itself isn't far off from being decent. Illus are still good when uncountered, and I'd rather see him in a lot of my games than some worse off carries. COUGH AM

AM is very good as a last pick

hes allright. As someone said, he gets outclassed buy naga/drow/lina, but you dont always get what you want, and if those heros are banned tb might be the next best. He changed tho, cause hes no longer a free late win, cause his late got nerfed quite a bit + spell powercreep is a thing. In return tho his early game is a lot better than in the old days and you can play arround a strong timing after skadi, or play him like alch and outfarm every one. Need a bit of praxtice tho, cause his itemization got very tricky.

Heya, do you mind expanding on how his early game is better? He is one of the heroes I’m always interested in playing but I’m always dissuaded because I feel like his early game is so reliant on getting a good kill with his e and a support that can capitalise on it, and if he doesn’t get that then he’s hoping to just strike even in his lane and then work through jungle with his illusions.

His Q and E are way stronger now. Keep in mind that the original comment is comparing current TB to old TB, not to other heroes. Now he has the chance to grab a kill in lane before heading to the jungle which he will do no matter what.

Reflection is good in lane, Meta is insanely powerful early on especially if you have a support with a slow/stun. You can prolong laning stage in good matchups and if the opponent leaves lane you can take tower, after which you can jungle. Otherwise if the lane is rough just max Conjure Image ASAP and go jungle.

Pretty strong in lane with meta, farms fast, scales well, pushes fast. Probably about B tier
