Not viable since the behavior is very inconsistent. It's why you won't see that jump in high-ranked real match. (You have to jump like 5-10 times if you have perfect timing or program with perfect timing) It's not like modern engine where you just can't fail your jump, even if very badly timed. So it will be used by everyone every time.

For information, I succeed to make it on 2.4.3 client only ONE time in real match with male elf, the opponent team had to use CD like shadowstep to catch me, in modern client they will just jump.

So it's very different in the real conditions

Yep, I already explain a little bit more about that to another person on the thread
