Evasion

Evasion is a passive ability that gives the wielding unit a chance to evade an incoming physical attack.

Only physical attacks but no spells can be evaded by passive Evasion. However, abilities like Blink or Shadow Walk can be used to dodge attacks or projectile-based abilities such as Vengeful Spirit's Magic Missile.

The item Monkey King Bar grants True Strike, causing its wielder's attacks to never miss, completely negating any evasion.

Evasion never stacks. This includes both Hero Abilities and Item bonuses, only the one with the highest probability will work. An exception to that rule is Faceless Void's Backtrack ability, as it is not considered Evasion. Evasion and Backtrack work independently and are subject to Chance Stacking. The Blind status effect stacks diminishingly with evasion.
