How this matchup plays

Trying to frontline as Timbersaw runs into a wall of problems against Invoker. The core of Timbersaw's tankiness, his Reactive Armor stacks, gets instantly removed by Tornado. Without those stacks, he's surprisingly fragile. Even if he tries to escape with Timber Chain, a well-timed Cold Snap will lock him in place for an easy kill. Add in the threat of EMP draining his already tight mana pool, and Timbersaw finds that all of his primary tools are directly countered before he can even get his full combo off.

Across the game, this advantage only grows. An early Spirit Vessel on Invoker completely shuts down Timbersaw's regeneration, making him unable to sustain through fights. Timbersaw is forced to play cautiously, needing to catch Invoker completely off guard with a Blink Dagger to have a chance. More often, though, Invoker dictates the engagement from a safe distance, using his wide array of spells to control Timbersaw and make him a non-factor for his team. Timbersaw’s entire game plan is effectively dismantled.
