      Chaoshype

        How about, if you don't have genuine advice, just fucking leave?

        SirSwirll

          How about! Don't ask a question that is so piontless

          Chaoshype

            Oh yeah? Answer it then.

            Bad Intentions

              Hmmm, maybe u just faced a really gud TW man? Trolls era has long gone :]

              But disables are key to shuttin him down :]

              robert

                Troll isint that good in this PATCH b4 he was a beast with sniper...to counter his just nuke the shit out of him and HB counter his attack

                SirSwirll

                  or anyone in general since he is a crap hero now

                  Chaoshype

                    Bkb, Daedalus, shadow blade, helm, you have nothing to do

                    SirSwirll

                      Don't see how this is an issue for you at normal skill

                      Chaoshype

                        Well he was also on this Lich game on my team and he rekt the enemy team then.

                        Bad Intentions

                          Yo OP, U cant give troll the space man, gotta shut him down early mid. Troll still one of the best late game heroes out there with bkb, if not the best :]

                          Chaoshype

                            Exactly he's fucking OP in team fights I can't think of a single counter to stop him, he can easily beat like 3/4 at once. Ganking in jungle never takes place in normal skill, tbh

                            Bad Intentions

                              Well, you cant sleep on him, hes the rampage guy if left unchecked :] so gotta hunt him down early mid man :]

                              Bad Intentions

                                Well, you cant sleep on him, hes the rampage guy if left unchecked :] so gotta hunt him down early mid man :]

                                  I think Jakiro is quite okay. They (?) can reduce his attack and move speed considerably with Double Breath and Liquid Fire. Ice Path is generally good disable especially for buying you some time to land those two skill.

                                  * I didn't list Macropyre because it's really unreliable.

                                    ^my last game proves you wrong.

                                    He has hard time against stuns/chainstuns.
                                    Carry: CK, Pl, slark?, sniper. Don't think anyone else has the power to man fight him unless the lead is huge.
                                    Support: Lina, lion, ogre. Shaman.

                                    dunce

                                      bane was good against troll even in patch 6.83

                                      dunce

                                        just dont manfight troll lol, hes among the strongest manfighters in the game

                                        Chadzpyre

                                          slark with mkb will dumpster troll.

                                          most illusion carries also work.

                                          OD can OD him.

                                            razor, wind, ck, pugna, spectra, od...etc

                                            TNL.Jolly_Hotdog

                                              stun him, hunt him and bm him before he gets a bkb

                                              Talon

                                                Techies

                                                Chaoshype

                                                  A 5 sec bkb is enough for him to teamwipe

                                                  pls be patient, receiving BJ

                                                    If you ignore strats to deal with troll and focus solely on "counters", as you say, then you shouldn't be surprised with your current problem. Atm he is considered shit in the meta, and (this wouldn't matter to you since this is a strat) he is relatively easy to shut down with some early aggression.

                                                    dunce

                                                      just any disable that goes thru bkb

                                                      LeFlash

                                                        Windranger helped me a lot against troll during his op era, other kiting heroes are good, qop was pretty good too, sniper is good vs him but bad overall.

                                                        TheMaverick427

                                                          Any BKB piercing Disables and slows work well against him later on. Shadow Demon's Ult is pretty good for that. Also if you get aghs it applies break which utterly ruins troll. Break Disables his bash, stops him gaining fervour stacks AND removes the currents stacks he has.
                                                          Silver Edge is thus also fairly good against him. You may also need and MKB for the whirling axes miss chance.

                                                          The main thing though is to not try and manfight him. He will beat any hero in a right click battle 1 vs 1. Even possibly sven or ursa. Stun him, kite him and nuke him.

                                                              Sir.swirl you really are a toxic guy aren't you? First you hate smurfs then you cry about SEA gamers and now this?
                                                              What is wrong with you dude? If you don't have anything good to say just please do not say it at all. Chaoshype is right, why comment if you don't have a genuine advice regarding this thread. You're just another scum trying to act like a pro even though you know that you're not. TBH I've watched some of your matches and it just plainly suck.

                                                                Chaoshype

And I was spamming PA and Riki then. So, how about you take your sorry ass back where it came from, your mom's basement.
                                                                  Good day to you, sir, don't reply to my threads ever, please. :)

                                                                        This hero is not a tank, burst damage combined with physical damage is perfect against him.
                                                                        Morphling can outcarry Troll warlord.
                                                                        A lot of people tend to keep talking about patches and shit just ignore them
                                                                        they think they're some sort of pros or something.

                                                                        Armatmans

                                                                          fabi

                                                                            At low skill levels it doant care if a hero is strong in a patch...u just need to play him good to win
                                                                            Its actually good when hes less plated bec what is a 2k player doing against a hero that he played 2 times?

                                                                            BUSE

                                                                              Azaggon

                                                                                        Mags

                                                                                          Yenny

                                                                                            Lifestealer is a good counter once you get MKB and Skull basher.

                                                                                            Stops you from missing attacks and makes you bash him.

                                                                                            The basher becomes the bashed.

                                                                                            Chadzpyre

                                                                                              wtf? lifestealer is super shit vs him. troll is a counter to him.

                                                                                              Sven is a little better but still bad pick. just try it in lobby lol, 6 slot vs 6 slot i guarantee sven will sit there bashed for 5 seconds and die even with 50 armor.

                                                                                              illusions heroes with mkb are all good, lots of heroes beat troll tho.

                                                                                                Innately TW beats LS, but with the right items LS beats TW.

                                                                                                    I speak from my own experiences. Troll beats LS until LS buys MKB.

                                                                                                    I played a game about a month back where I was creaming their LS all game (because that's what TW does) but as soon as he got an MKB I was turned into shredded cheese. We still won, but it meant that I couldn't 1v1 LS anymore.

                                                                                                    I'm well aware that LS doesn't innately beat TW. I've said this already.

                                                                                                    Don't stop believin'

                                                                                                      yeah, but i think this can count for any fast attacking carry getting a mkb against u
                                                                                                      there are no specific spells that make ls strong against tw its just this one item and u can get it on other heroes too
