Does its active still slow you when you use it on yourself? No it doesn't. Using it on yourself just does the Purge effect. | ||

It also removes many other debuffs like AA's ice blast and etheral form and instakills illusions/summons. Most well known purge-able summon is the warlock inferno, but many don't know that Gyro's missile can be destroyed using purge too. Wait what? Gyro missile? Mind blown. Thanks! | ||

In DotA 1, Dust is a Universal-type debuff (like Doom) that is removed neither by magic immunity nor purges. is it really? that seems like a pretty big bug/discrepancy from dota1, the main reason is because i'd call diffusal one of the core items of riki (best known as The invisible hero? lol). weird that the devs didn't take it in consideration. the purgeability of dust is also one of the reasons why i prefere counter wards to them. | ||

Yea, i was so confused when i started playing dota2 and riki just kept disappearing after i dusted  Here's a video showing how it works in dota1: + Show Spoiler + | ||

Dark Pact and Kraken Shell remove dust because they're triggered buff removal, not purges. Mirror image does remove Universal debuffs. | ||
