What is Manifold Paradox Effigy
An immortal dagger for Phantom Assassin, synced with the Manifold Paradox arcana. An extra grey aura on crit and a reworked hit sound.
Immortal items drop only from events, caches and battle passes. After the sale ends, unlimited immortals reach the Steam Community Market, where the price forms freely. Limited ones (like some seasons) can be absent from the market for years.
This immortal is a fresh one (2024). The price can still fluctuate — the market is fresh.

Skin Changer safety
The Skin Changer is a client-side modification, nothing is sent to the Valve server. From the anticheat's point of view it's a "harmless" category on par with a custom HUD: the ban rate for a pure skin changer trends to zero.
Combined with the Umbrella spoofer the risk is reduced further. A detailed honest breakdown — "Do you get banned for cheats in Dota 2".
FAQ
Do allies see Manifold Paradox Effigy?
No. The Skin Changer applies the skin only on the client — allies and enemies see the standard model. If you want to show the immortal in a replay or stream — that works only locally.
Will the immortal go with my arcana?
Yes. Most immortal items are compatible with arcanas (e.g. Manifold Paradox + Manifold Paradox Effigy). The Skin Changer lets you combine any combinations regardless of what's in your Steam inventory.
What happens if the subscription expires?
The skin layouts deactivate — the standard model returns on the next game. Progress is saved: when the subscription resumes, the whole settings set is restored.
Can I sell Manifold Paradox Effigy via a bot after Umbrella?
No. The Skin Changer does not give a real item in the Steam inventory — it's a visual substitution. If you need a real item for trading, you'll have to buy it on the Steam Market.
What other immortals are there on Phantom Assassin?
In the Umbrella Skin Changer all known Dota 2 immortal items are available (several hundred). On Phantom Assassin the catalog usually has 4–8 immortals and 1 arcana. The full list — inside the module.
