Artanis Artanis is no problem for this build of Tychus to deal with. Your dash and dodge either his Q or his Prism and the slow from his Overkill should keep him off you.

Johanna With Jo's CC and tankyness Tychus might struggle to get away from her as well as struggling to do high damage to her.

Kerrigan If she lands her combo you are probably dead if she has any help even Heal and Stone Skin will not save you here in most cases.
8
Sgt. Hammer Hammer can be hard to deal with for this build because she out ranges and out trades you in a head up fight.
8
E.T.C. ETC with mosh pit is very dangerous for Tychus no matter the build. This build has more survivability than others but only if you can activate talents. If you get Moshed than more than likely you are dead. If you dont get Moshed you need to save your grenade to interrupt it.

Illidan Illidan is very dangerous for Tychus to deal with he is very mobile and with your lack of escape he can be hard to deal with.

My thoughts on the overall build Top

I build Tychus this way because his siege damage jumps a ton from a single talent at lvl 4 Melting Point. By picking this talent you are increasing your clear speed of minion waves and you siege damage on structures by a ton and you are not losing much hero damage at all in the process unless you are going auto attack build( Not that great in my humble opinion just because of his in ability to kite well due to how is trait works).

With this build you are going to focus on sieging a bit more than other build but I often end games with top hero and siege damage on my team with this build.

Talent options Top

LVL 1 Talents: I never take anything other than Armor Piercing Rounds it is a core part of Tychus and is the only real choice at this LVL.

LVL 4 Talents: I again ALWAYS take Melting Point it just gives too much siege damage not to take in my opinion and the only reason not to take it in my eyes is if you are doing a full Auto Attack build which I don't care for much on Tychus.

LVL 7 Talents: The two main choices here in my opinion is Heal for survivability and Rapid fire. I will take Heal most games unless they have multiple tanks and then I will take Rapid fire to combo with problem solver( Tychus version of Giant Killer)

LVL 10 Ults: This all depends on the team you are fighting and your preference. I don't think many heroes have two ults that are about as good as each other but in this case Tychus does. Both of these ults are great and just depend on your play style and the Enemy comp. I will say if there is a hammer on the enemy team I usually take Odin because you outranged her with your Q and W abilities allowing you to punish her if she is sieged up.

LVL 13 Talents: There are a few choices here all based on what the enemy team comp is. If they have multiple tanks than giant killer is what you want to pick coupled with Rapid Fire at LVL 7. If they have Heroes with lots of CC than you might want to pick Relentless and in any case Lead Rain is a great ability for both escaping and for chasing down enemy heroes.

LVL 16 Talents: Because of how squishy Tychus is I feel that there is not much of a choice here and I always pick up Stone Skin. If you have a great front line and lots off CC on your team Executioner could also be a good choice but only if you have been relatively safe most of the game and your Tanks are peeling for you properly.

LVL 20 Talents: At level 20 there are 3 good choices depending on your situation. If you are dying a lot and finding it hard to escape Bolt of the storm is what you want to chose no doubt. If you have choses Drakkans Laser you almost always want to chose the upgrade for it here and If you are fighting multiple tanks than you are gonna want to get Nexus Frenzy to combo with your AA talents to deal with them.
