It seems like almost every match I saw on twitch has Terrorblade in a pick/ban.

Why?

Because he is the new lycan, he is not as good as an EARLY pusher but he is really good lategame and tears through the jungle really fast.

He's the fastest farming hero in the game and can snowball off of any minor advantage. And is probably the fastest pusher as well.

Imagine him as being a Naga Siren who deals more damage, farms quicker, and is more relevent at every stage in he game.

Since you just can't have enough Chaos Breaker.

He has the highest single target DPS in the late game. He is also very good against towers, as you know, because little of his damage is meant exclusively for heroes as opposed to Spectre or Faceless Void.
I did a bunch of math and calculated his damage based on a fairly normal stacked build:

Here are a few others for reference:

Chaos Knight (with a build people don't use but is really effective)

I have more hero calculations, but you get the point. Terrorblade has Terror-fying damage potential as well as strong midgame push power, so he will see lots of play.

TB game from the other day.

I was out-damaged, and out-farmed by this Drow that our Invoker fed so it was difficult to take her on in the early game. But when our Io continuously relocated our Legion Commander to gank her and kill her, they didn't really have anything else to counter my pushes. Every time she died I just pushed a tower, tp'd, pushed another tower, and so on.

Point is that if you give TB any space to farm, he will destroy your towers before you can even reposition to defend. This is why TB is so popular in the current meta.

Another example, this game occured during Summit 2 EU quals (Alliance vs. C9). Proving yet again why you can offer no space for the opposing teams TB to farm.

Tim beat me to it. He really is the new Lycan, except that he can't solo Roshan early. He pushes and has great kill potential, and he can do everything pretty fast. Players like Arteezy who are really good at farming are going to abuse the hell out of this hero for the next few months.

What do you mean he can't do Roshan early?
He can do Roshan as soon as Troll Warlord can. He just needs Helm of the Dominator and Yasha and he can solo Rosh with his Metamorphosis.

i dont like dominator on him, it doesnt really help him farm faster since he is illusion based.
IMO the best build is the build EE and black use. Manta, skadi into situational other lategame items like: butterfly, crit, bkb, satanic, mkb, heart exetera.
