IRC chatter should remain in IRC - http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=tl.dota2

Posts that relate to topics with their own thread, such as in News, Tournaments or Strategy should go in those threads.

In what situation do you even consider those two items together lol. They should work just fine mechanically but are a really bad build


Only evasion that stacks is backtrack, otherwise don't get two dodges.

Anyone looking for a friend to queue with? I've played ~500 games/~50% winrate almost exclusively solo, so I have a lot to learn. Just looking for some reasonably mature, serious, mid-tier people to play with and learn from.

Afaik there are diminishing returns if you get butterfly on PA. You don't get the full 30% eva from butterfly, though I'll leave the accurate numbers to more knowledgeable people

does poor man's shield and vanguard block passive stack?

If it works anything like the crits, then that would make it so that PMS blocked only when Vanguard doesn't (against heroes).

PMS block - 100% block for 20 pts from enemy heroes
Vanguard - 70% block for 40 pts from all

Meaning, you'll always block 20 pts, but block 40 pts 70% of the time.


So I guess it's not detrimental to have both? Other than taking 2 slots.

Extremely pricey for the cost, though.


How about butterfly with blur or any other evasion abilities?

And you mean I should drop both items, and pick up PMS first then VanguarD?

Only butterfly will take effect since it has a higher effect. Butterfly stacks with backtrack though, apparently.

Yes to picking up Vanguard after PMS if you want Vanguard to ever take effect against heroes.

Not to be mean, but plenty of these answers are accessible via Google .

No, multiple evasion sources don't stack, period. The only exception is Backtrack because it's not true evasion.

Thanks thanks. And yeah, it isn't a great item build but I made a mistake in buying items with PA, and ended up having 2 stout shields. I might as well tried lol.

Blur and butterfly have the same evasion rates atm. It was changed around quite a bit lately but both are at 35% now when blur is maxed ofc

There are 3 "evasion" types: a buff (skill or item), debuff (skill) and high ground miss chance.
You can't stack evasion of the same type.

Evasion DOES NOT STACK PERIOD. Only exception is faceless void backtrack, which isn't "Evasion" since it can avoid magic damage as well, and so is not subject whatsoever to the limitation.

If I am PA with max blur and 6 butterflies, I have exactly 35% evasion, despite having 7 different things that would all give me 35%.

If I am a hero with no evasion, and I buy Butterfly and an additional talisman of evasion, I have exactly 35% evasion from the butterfly (the talisman does nothing).

Etc. etc.

Do note that Backtrack + evasion stacking does still suffer from diminishing returns, much like crits. Faceless with max backtrack (25%) + a butterfly (35%) = ~51% physical evasion (25% + [35% of 75%])

Edit: I'm late to the party, clearly

Is there a source where I can find what stacks with what? Like item + item, item + ability, etc.?

Dota 2 Wiki doesn't seem to have it...

"Evasion" the stat specifically refers to only the first of the 3. I haven't ever seen the other two referred to as evasion.

When Panda casts Drunken Haze on you, nobody says "everyone has 75% evasion against you"--they say you have 75% miss chance.

That's because Void is bullshit.

Always backtrack, never don't backtrack.

You mean evasion + "blind" spells+ uphill right? I once tried attacking uphill a troll warlord that had me blinded and had a talisman of evasion. And yeah, those stack, but the debuff is on the attacker

Don't worry, I'm a part of a special subculture that calls urn of shadows either "urine" or konocha

Hmm, just got 4 invites to gift out. How do I go about giving these to people who need them? Or do they need to be tradable because I can't trade them for a month.
The ruminations are mine, let the world be yours.
