Silencer takes less damage from silenced targets, which Last Word and Global Silence supply. Arcane Curse lasts longer when affected enemies cast, and Last Word damages and silences a target that casts a spell or lets the enchantment expire. Global Silence is removed once debuff immunity is gained, and a blocked Last Word never lands.
Counter items
Black King BarAvatar makes negative spell effects, Global Silence included, have no effect.
Linken's SphereSpellblock stops Last Word from being placed on a key caster.
Mage SlayerReduces the damage of his Arcane Curse and Last Word after attacks land.
