• Evasion caused a crucial missed right‑click that changed the outcome.
• Illusions were used as effective bait to force enemy spells and cooldowns.

Practical tips / strategies shown

1. Keep blink ready as a clutch escape tool when playing mobile cores like Shadow Fiend.
2. Use illusions to bait enemy spells and force overcommitment.
3. Pay attention to enemy evasion effects — one missed hit can change a fight.
4. Watch for enemy Relocate plays (Io) and be prepared to TP, blink, or otherwise escape; Boots of Travel or a secondary escape are valuable.
5. Protect important utility (courier) or at least be aware of its position during skirmishes; unexpected courier interactions can complicate fights.
6. Use high‑ground/uphill vision to break targeting and buy time for an escape.
