I think it's because epi need casting time,
while others don't use it.

any hero that uses a spell or starts attacking deactivates the invisibility of that hero.

if you want to be invisible while doing the epicenter, try activating lothar's edge after you finish casting epicenter. that is, if your casting time is uninterrupted.

activate it whent the pulses starts to come out.. NOTHING WILL CANCEL IT IF THE PULSES STARTS ..

but if you activate lothar's edge while the tail is still glowing (casting time), then the epicenter will be cancelled..

@Yuki - thanks for backing

@Lonewolf: Here's the thing. When one is windwalking: attacking, casting a spell, using an item, teleporting, blinking, being stunned will remove windwalking therefore rendering you visible. So, if you insist on using Lothar's Edge on Sand King, you have no choice but to wait until the tremors (or earthquake, whatever you wanna call it) have begun, or to put it in another way, when Sand King's tail has stopped blinking. IMHO, I really don't see the point of using Lothar's Edge in the first place. You're much better off with a Black King Bar.

i think you'll be visible by the time u start casting epicenter..coz it takes 2sec to cast it (enought time to stun u or turn u into sheep) unlike nevermore(shadow fiend) using requiem,it takes only a sec to cast it..so by the time nevermore gets visible it'll be too late for the enemy to react or cancel the requiem...i suggest u use bkb so no spell watsoever can interrupt u from casting epicenter unless hero that has bashing skill or basher w/MoM brave enough to smash ur head and get stunned b4 completing ur casting time.. i also recommend using a dagger to blink-in after u have cast the epi or after the 1st pulse of the epi occur..for it requires timing and quickness of hands..i dont know about you but i can do that kind of technique..to make it short use bkb + dagger = total ownage.. jz watch out for heroes that has linkensphere...

oh! i totally misunderstood u yukino...sorry! @ mark_jel yes lothars works on heroes who has channeling spells...u activate lothars while channeling ur spells so they cant stun/disrupt u or anythin unless they use impale, hoof stomp, fissure, burrowstrike or any stun that has AoE or silence/smoke screen... 8 )

Go within range, cast Death Wards, then activate Wind Walk.
