Ember Spirit chains Fire Remnant dashes into Sleight of Fist, which applies every attack modifier to each target hit. Searing Chains does not affect Debuff Immune units, so immunity timed before the lock-down cancels it. Flame Guard absorbs only magic damage, while a hex stops the Sleight of Fist burst and ghost form blunts it.
Counter items
Black King BarDebuff immunity stops Searing Chains from anchoring the wearer in place.
