Techies relies on Proximity Mines and the Minefield Sign to punish movement through an area, with mines that True Sight cannot reveal and that trigger even on invisible units. A mine needs an enemy standing in its area for 1 second and shows itself within 500 units, so crossing quickly and clearing mines one at a time limits the damage. Mines also lower magic resistance, so spell damage protection helps early.
Counter items
Pipe of InsightA support item that gives allies a magic damage barrier and magic resistance.
Eternal ShroudStacks magic resistance from spell damage taken, offsetting the Proximity Mines debuff.
Blink DaggerTeleporting up to 1200 units leaves a mine area before one second of standing passes.
