Manta Style illusion as they appear to allies.


  • After the split time, the wielder reappears with their illusions.
    • The reappear locations are based on the caster's position upon cast, with one appearing at the cast location, and the others north, east, south or west from that point.
    • The distance in between each created illusion is 108-distance if the wielder's collision size is 27, and 72-distance if its collision size is 18.
    • Though the formation is always the same, the caster and their illusions take a random position in the formation and have all the same facing angle.
    • The illusions have a
      expr
      2 × IllusionLVL bounty.
  • Orders the wielder to stop after the split time, canceling all queued orders, and orders given during the split time.
    • Also stops all ongoing targeted orders of other units that have been issued before Mirror Image was cast.
  • Successive casts replace the illusions from the previous cast, no matter under whose control they are.

Tips[]

  • The Manta Style is less effective on ranged heroes except with heroes with attack modifiers that works on illusions like Luna Moon Glaives bounce, Drow Ranger's high agility and Morphling which mostly buy stats items that benefits illusions.
  • Works with Lone Druid's Spirit Bear.
  • The illusions can be used to scout to secure your farming, prepare a gank, or before attacking Roshan icon Roshan. They are useful to deward and destroy Techies' mines but they don't get True Sight from Gem.
  • The active of the Manta Style applies a basic dispel, so it can replace a Linken's Sphere icon Linken's Sphere against a Bloodthorn icon Bloodthorn or Rod of Atos icon Rod of Atos.
  • Illusions inherit effects such as critical strike and Manabreak, albeit diminished.As a result, Daedalus icon Daedalus and Diffusal Blade icon Diffusal Blade synergise well with Manta.
