General DiscussionIs Terrorlade a good hero to use for grinding?

You're a few patches late. But from what the blue stars say he Is still decent.

Pick alchemist instead

Sure you can, I dont know your MMR but below 3k you will never be punished to afk farm so it's ok to pick TB

edit : 10/10 for your nickname

no, never on this hard snowball meta patch. Pick something that can snowball faster....win you games....

he's a hero that usually plays 1vs9 and solo win games,but you have more better chance to win by using ursa/bh/lifestealer on this patch

or lycan

If you're playing in normal skill and know what you're doing, you can get super quick farm and not worry about enemy coming to gank you while you jungle or bothering to contest your illusions pushing out the lanes. You can get manta / skadi by like 25min and end the game down mid with one meta.

Maybe better to stick with something like Jugg though who is way more flexible in item builds, also very quick farmer and can come online to fight a bit quicker.

Depends who you grind against.

I would say TB is bad at grinding against qop, dw and naga for reasons, but is good at grinding against cm and venge.

hope this answers your question.

TB is no longer a meta pick (no pun intended), he is much more situational and honestly in a regular PUB he just gets outclassed by other cores. I like him as a counter pick to extreme physical damage team comps, but those are very rare nowadays considering the popularity of heroes like Lion, Invoker, Skywrath, OD etc.

Also would add he was a common answer to Anti Mage who was decent in the previous patch, whereas AM is just too slow now and picked way less often so TB has also suffered as a result.

Just spam Ursa, hero can win the lane pretty easily, snowball easily, and matches up well against most other carrys and heroes in general

yes, he is good but if u are still trying to learn how to play tb then you are better off playing other carries like ursa, ck, and ls
