                    Another good article, you guys are on a roll :D. Thanks. Would have liked more discussion of the Clinkz, like the lead photo, but that may just be me.

                            When the enemy team let's your broodmother take a lane of racks at 20 minutes because no one bothered to stop her. Feels good

                                          what is Split push? you mean push with the illusions? lol why not just PUSH

                                          not thp

                                              Pick Spirit Breaker for roam = Profit.

                                                The best way to deal with split pushers in my experience is to counter push the lane they push, then start split pushing yourself and have a hero or heroes who can very quickly clear waves/units very quickly.

                                                Heroes like timbersaw can clear waves in a blink of an eye, ember can very quickly clear waves and then return to what ever lane we was in, there's also jakiro, bat rider is ok, Sven, orge magi with veil or shiva's, LC's overwhelming odds is ridiculous at the moment also she can also try kill who ever is pushing, tiny with aghs, zues, invoker, Mirana with aghs, Winter wyven makes their units work against their master and can also deal with waves.

                                                So in summery, take team fights/get kills, push back lanes, and split push yourself in order to keep the lanes pushed out.

                                                    Jakiro is hilarious for stopping Nature's Prophet, since his treants are almost wiped out by Dual Breath + Liquid Fire (base 520 damage, treants have 550 HP). You can just pick each one off with a right click, use Ice Path for +50 damage, get an aether lens, or hit 92+ Int to finish them off entirely (creeps will also maybe smack them, but creeps are agents of chaos and can't be trusted).

                                                    Against other split pushers tho he's kinda ineffective.

                                                            @Gate 8-1-8 Yeah, man! That's why these articles seem all so lame. The best way to counter the other team from winning is to win yourself. And that's so clear to all infants all around the world, It makes all us dumb.

                                                            Solitude

                                                              @ANIMAL: It's splitpush because you split up your team; you don't push with 5 heroes, but have 4 heroes defending and 1 hero pushing or 3 heroes pushing 1 lane and 2 other heroes pushing the other 2 lanes etc.

                                                              In general, you need waveclear vs splitpushing. You cannot defend your towers with Omniknight, Spectre or Bane etc., you need long ranged aoe dmg spells like WW's Splinter Blast or Kotl's Illuminate. Without several heroes who can push out waves quickly, you will be playing with your back against a wall all the time.
                                                              With that ingredient, you need to make sure that you have all lanes pushed out before you start something (push, smoke, Rosh,..); send your Ember to push out bot a bit, your Timber to push out top and then let them teleport onto Mid to the rest of the team.

                                                              Besides that, always weigh out your chances: Is your team taking the rax faster than the enemy, can you teleport back in time? Can you finish the throne before they do? Who has TPs - both on your team and on their team?
                                                              If you are behind, taking an even rax trade is usually really good for you, which obviously makes it bad for you if you are ahead. Better teleport, defend, kill everyone and THEN push without taking any losses.

                                                                I used to pick Spiritbreaker to anticipate it. Bounty hunter is good to deal with Tinker too. Track, Orchid, Teamwork, ez.

                                                                                      Just played a miserable ranked game (https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/3628455858) and lost. We had a good early game and Nyx and I got several successful ganks against the Tinker. We were ahead for most of the game, but the gradual erosion from Tinker and NP just gradually whittled down our towers. It was near-impossible for our Pugna or PA to split push themselves because they had an SB in addition to Tinker/NP. I was playing support and I felt like I had to be everywhere. Our PA was more interested in getting kills than keeping lanes pushed, and our Weaver DC'd.

                                                                                      It's such a frustrating way of losing. In a pub game it's difficult to properly coordinate smoke ganks or decide whether to counter-push or defend. Either way, they could always react quicker than us because of their heroes. I could probably have itemised better, but even so I'm not sure what else I could do.
