How to Counter Ogre Magi

Ogre Magi relies on Multicast, which repeats his targeted spells, so one Fireblast can stun the same target several times at 0.6 second intervals while Ignite spreads across the area. Every damaging spell he has is targeted, and spell immunity stops both Fireblast and Ignite. A silence prevents every one of those casts and leaves a Strength-heavy body with attack damage alone.

Counter items

Linken's SphereSpellblock can absorb a targeted Fireblast before it stuns.
Black King BarAvatar makes the Fireblast stun and Ignite have no effect while it lasts.
Orchid MalevolenceA 5 second silence stops Fireblast and Ignite from being cast.
