Hint: Manta does not work with rapier.

Manta only works on base damage + stats = 50 damage per right click from each illusion in split shot when you have 25k networth. You literally get a bonus level 1 support hero with no abilities from it.


Wow since when was this changed? recently started playing Dota after nearly 2 years break ..


It has been forever since dota 1. That is a simple illusion mechanic that I thought everybody knew.

manta itself isn't bad. going linkens, manta and skadi is stats overkill even for dusa and u just don't have any right click. personally if i had to skip one of those 3 items i'd definitely skip the manta.

honestly i find linkens to be really meh most games. I tend to favor manta/skadi/bfly you hit hard and illusions hit pretty hard in that build too

this medusa crap is getting beaten down dead. the illusions don't do damage, especially with split shot toggled on before the manta is used. there are other uses and it's clearly a cost efficient item to bridge the build up to skadi. it is a free 250+ gpm and lane pressure if able to use the active to farm every wave.

vega did the best they felt they could in that situation. there were so many things slightly off aside from what happened at the very last moments that game.

moving onto game 3!

dude since always.


Nah, Im pretty sure Rapier + Manta used to be very strong on Dusa back in the days.

Rapier + Manta is strong on dusa because each item is individually strong.

Rapier's +damage doesn't transfer to illusions. Medusa has meh stat gain. Medusa tank comes from mana shield which doesn't transfer to illusions as well. Illusions with split shot deal even lesser damage.

Go Google that manta skadi Medusa against an sb gif. You could add 2 rapiers and the illusions still deal the same damage.

Manta Medusa is popular because pros don't bother with math and foolishly get that item over and over again on her.

Obligatory reminder that people used to buy vanguard on Slardar 2 years ago when vanguard was literally worst item in dota and armlet was hundreds of times better.. You don't have a point.

Instead of running back to dire side should have taken phoenix down there. Seemed kind of half commitment.

idk, to me dusa looks like a hero u can't really go middle of the road items on. you get ur big tank items, u get ur big damage items and u become a turret. manta doesn't give you the best of either, it's some movement speed, it's some illusions that kind of do a little damage and in the end it feels like it's just not enough of anything.

Manta is ur farm item that also gives you decent damage

if they do not practically own the front third of radiant side map by 20 minutes, or alternatively knock lone druid back to the stone age, it is game ogreeee for the drow draft.
