Illusions safely create map pressure or amplify the hero's core mechanic, and the dispel has a named target.
Where it breaks
If illusions are cleared quickly and the dispel is unnecessary, expensive versatility becomes a weak power spike.
Replay question
How many waves and dangerous effects did the item actually handle between two team objectives?
Professional purchase window
OpenDota · 7.41eNot one minute, but the middle of an observed sample.
