Evasion skill on Meepo
One of the things that bothers me is the evasion percentage that comes with the tree.

I understand this addition when it comes to playing against right-click carries, but I don't see how can it be applicable for heroes like Meepo most of the time. The problem I have with it is the usefulness of it.

Allow me to explain.

Just from my own experience, getting 10% Evasion on Meepo is close to wasting your skill tree level on something that won't help you at all.
Prime example, TA has 12% evasion by level 15, but she can use it with Butterfly.
Same for SF, he gets 15% by level 20 and can add Butterfly's 35% (I know evasion doesn't stack by the way, but this is just an example of how evasive a hero can get).

But seriously, how is it even good for Meepo? If by level 20 his enemies will be around 9 - 11 (assuming that's a good farm on him), then yeah, maybe evasion can be used for possibly avoiding a "deadly" attack of a carry. Now lets assume the game goes on for too long (say, its 40 min). Enemy carries have high damage and 10% evasion won't stop them from landing an actual deadly hit.

I think the devs made a mistake here, this skill is completely useless compared to the +25 attack speed buff. I'd either replace it with something better (say, idk, +200 range on net) or increase the evasion a bit.

The reason I made this discussion thread is to ask those who play this hero, whether they get this skill, and if so - why?

Thanks.
