Was playing Weaver last night and I was in lane against a PA. After getting a nice FB , I was constantly harassed by her dagger. I tried using Shikuchi to dodge it, but it hit me regardless of being invisible. Is this a bug or is it meant to happen? If it's a bug I'm going to post it on the dev forums.

Edit: Posted to r/dota2 and got a bunch of responses. In short, Stifling Dagger cannot be disjointed using Shikuchi and most invis spells.

Was it solo vs. PA?

If she's using her dagger to harass you that's probably a good thing as she should be using it to LH Keep the Shukuchi for when she tries to use or position herself for Phantom Strike.

Yeah I wasn't too worried about, it just forced me out of lane a decent amount since there was an Enigma jungling next to me. Once I grabbed a RoH I wasn't worried about it at all. I definitely out-laned and out farmed her (I got solo first blood, then they got me with a 3 person gank), so it wasn't difficult to deal with, more of I wasn't sure if it could even be disjointed, which I did find out, it can't be by blink or invis.

Stifling dagger is true damage so it cant be dodged

One thing you can do with weaver in this situation you do have going for you is if she jumps on you just shapoopie away

Like vodka said, if shes using her dagger to harass shes wasting free last hits she could be getting which she'll regret later probably

If shes going to harass you hardcore with the dagger then go for that health ring first, which is good anyway haha once you get that you wont feel the harass as hard if at all

She didn't start harassing until she had it at around level 3. I went aquilla->treads since I was doing well. They got one gank off on me, so I bought a RoH like a minute later. She basically couldn't stay in lane with me, especially since she was using dagger for harass instead of farm. The situation was easy to deal with, just wanted a clarification on the disjoinatability of dagger. Yup, I made up that word.
