Tychus Builds

[taznkid]

I like Tychus late game. However, he seems so useless early game and early midgame. Any suggestions?

Current Talents:2/3/1

Might,Fury

Fitness,Integrity,Discipline

Swiftness

General Item Build: Duran's Buckler>Isomorphic Pyre>Darksteel Titan>Galactic Defender/Force of Entropy> Galactic Defender/Force of Entropy >Organic Carapace/Phantom Menace> Carapace/Phantom Menace

He is one of them heroes which come to their full potential late game where he is virtually unkillable with the right items and ultimate.

 

I run either 2.3.1 like you or 1.4.1 taking fortify customers it's the most broken F skill in the game

 

As for items. I highly recommend cerebro as it is just a baller item on him. Helps energy problems, increases burst damage etc.

 

End game build for me looks something like

Darksteel Pyre Timesplitter GD Carapace Cerebro or shadowmourne

[Mus]

Machete, CoA, hammer, pyre, contam, dst, +1.

 

Just an example build.

Going this build is certainly the most fun in pubs. Seeing flames shoot out of your mini-gun constantly is pretty awesome.

I like Cerebro and Atom smasher on him in pubs too. I'd end up with something like this: Cerebro, Atom Smasher, DST, FOE, Pyre, Shadowmourne. Lightning rod allows you to do a little more damage early. His skills are spammable enough to ensure maximum procs on Cerebro/smasher. There's always at least 3 AGIs on the enemy team, and atom smasher wrecks them, especially if your team isn't terrible. Uber late game smasher falls off, so sometimes I'll sell it for something like Galactic, games usually don't go that long however. I don't have the most experience with tychus, this is just a first attempt at a build.

Yeah I play tychus in pubs quite a bit, and I find that the cerebro atom smasher opening is really good as well. I pretty much use the build you put above, as long as your team isn't terribad it's almost a certain win.
