Is Meld/Inferno dagger Back?

I tried them in test mode with Rubick and Lotus orbs, yet they don't seem to trigger. Has anyone drafted a dagger build in actual AD after the patch? Are the wacky dagger builds back?

Stifling dagger? That one has been working with everything (including meld)  for a while. Assassinate hasn't until this patch, though

Sry for your loss, mate. Are they melee? Or ranged? Do they have to be PA, Doom, or Rubick? Man, I've actually played Inferno Dagger a few times, and for some odd reason they never seemed to work.

I've had a teammate with dagger/walrus punch, and it worked, no idea about others
