The only thing i can think techies as of good use is only a good Feeder for your teamates, he earns much money for himself that he should share it to its teamates. i know that this trick wont do any good in the new verion of DOTA, but he is also good on shorted games and for early pushes. because in the long run, techies is such a paper mache for any hero he could face.

Techie is a supporter type hero. Ur job is to make sure ur opposition dun get too comfortable. Techie shud be the best rune controller of the game if u used it wisely. And of coarse, one of the best defender and anti- pusher. Goblin Techie needs to farm too! Early game u might be busy hunting low hp heros for first blood. If u are smart, u will plant bombs as wards at specific area to prevent ganks and reveal vision of that area. U can also plant land mines at NC sites so the NC won't spawn, ur opposition will have a hard time to farm without NC. Mid Game, Goblin Techie shud be farming now, Goblin can farm easily with his level 11 remote mine. One mine would blow a wave of creeps off. Goblin only need to farm until lvl 16, after that lvl 17,18,19... would be just the same. At late game, Goblin shud be spamming mines surrounding all the towers. The most important thing for Goblin is prevent opponent from farming too comfortably. planting mines at NC site and secret shop is a must. Item built Boots of travel, arcane ring,Dagger (or lotheres), eul scepter, Guinsoo and skadi.
