Quick summary: who should pick what
- Umbrella — for those who care about automation (Combo Builder, Auto-Cataclysm, Dodger, Kill Stealer), ready-made hero presets, and a quick learning curve. The minimum plan is cheaper — $2.99 for 3 days.
- Melonity — for experienced users who are used to the classic interface and do not want to re-learn. Longer on the market, but weaker on new modules (no preset-based Combo Builder, weaker MMR Tracker).
Below are concrete figures and facts for each parameter.
Feature comparison
| Feature | Umbrella | Melonity |
|---|---|---|
| Maphack (Info Screen) | Yes — wards, jungle, runes, Roshan HP | Yes — basic |
| Hero scripts | 126 heroes with presets | ~100 heroes |
| Combo Builder | Drag-and-drop, up to 12 steps | Basic bind only |
| Auto-Cataclysm (Invoker) | In preset | Manual configuration |
| Last-Hit auto | With human-jitter | No jitter (detected more often) |
| Kill Stealer | 40+ finishing abilities | Ultimates only |
| Dodger (auto-evade) | 60+ skillshots | ~30 skillshots |
| Skin Changer | 2400+ skins, arcanas | ~1800 skins |
| Spoofer (HWID) | Included in subscription | Separate add-on plan |
| Unlocker (Dota Plus) | Yes | No |
| MMR Tracker | Hidden MMR + gain per game | Visible MMR only |
| Cloud configs | No traces on disk | Local .cfg files |
| Camera Hack | Up to 2200 | Up to 1900 |
Bottom line: Umbrella covers more use cases out of the box. All 32 modules are included in every plan at no extra charge.

Safety and spoofer
The main risk of using any cheat is an HWID ban — a block tied to your hardware identifiers: even after creating a new Steam account you cannot play from the same PC. Here is what both products offer:
- Umbrella: Spoofer is built into the subscription, masking hard drive serials, MAC address, motherboard ID, and display identifiers. One-click activation through the Loader.
- Melonity: Spoofer is a separate product — an add-on to the subscription. Functionally similar, but requires manual configuration and sometimes returns "device unverified" after a Windows update.
Umbrella cloud configs do not write settings to disk — the anti-cheat scanner finds no traces. Melonity configs are local (.cfg in the game folder), which more frequently triggers heuristic flags.

Patch speed after Valve updates
Every time Valve releases a Dota 2 update (minor / major / hotfix), every cheat breaks until the cheat developers release their own patch. Downtime is a critical parameter.
- Umbrella: average delay 6–18 hours. SLA — 72 hours (if exceeded, we extend everyone's subscription).
- Melonity: average delay 12–36 hours. Sometimes longer (after patch 7.39 — 4 days of downtime).
The reason: Umbrella has a more compact reverse-engineering team that ships patches as binary cloud updates. Melonity uses a traditional full-build rebuild.

Verdict
If you are choosing a cheat for Dota 2 in 2026 for the first time — go with Umbrella. Cheaper, more modules out of the box, faster patches, better support, spoofer at no extra charge.
If you have been using Melonity for years and love their interface — migrating to Umbrella takes about an hour. Umbrella cloud configs support importing Melonity presets (via a convert command through support).
Known downsides of Umbrella to be aware of:
- No mobile app for config management (on the roadmap for Q2 2026; Melonity does not have one either).
- Localization is Russian/English only (Melonity supports CN/KR — but that is not critical for most Western users).
Recommendation: start with Umbrella's 3-day plan ($2.99). That is enough to test the interface, maphack, and scripts on your favorite hero. If you do not like it — try Melonity without a serious loss.
FAQ
Can you use Umbrella and Melonity at the same time?
No. Both inject into the same Dota 2 process and conflict. Choose one.
Which is safer from a ban perspective?
As of 2026, ban rates are comparable across both products: ~3% ban rate with proper use of a spoofer. The main factor is not the brand, but following the rules (not feeding perfect stats, not getting reported, not using it on a main account).
Which has a better Skin Changer?
Umbrella's catalog is larger (2400+ vs 1800+ for Melonity). Skin application works stably in both. If you only need a Skin Changer without scripts — check out Overplus (from $0.30).
Where can I find a promo code for Umbrella?
Fresh codes are on the Promo Codes page. Temporary 10–25% discounts also appear in the live chat.
