You called it almost useless, implying that you think it only worked if it would exploit lag, phantom swings and position bugs to keep you safe or that it now needs improvments to meet you standards of spell called Escapist.

So it is harder now to use in some situations, it wasn't stated that this is intentional, as it is a side-effect of a fix.

Unintentional change? This dont qualify.

First of all i think it wrong assumption, I always had a good success chance on getting close enough to some with escapist when server condition were ok.

Fixing these issues would make it work as used to, because these issues were not around when Escapist was introduced, hence no need to state if it was intended.
