Underlord leans on Pit of Malice to root a group and Firestorm to burn whoever stays inside, while Atrophy Aura shrinks enemy base damage and feeds him bonus damage from kills. Break shuts the aura off and stops it from granting new bonus damage. Spell immunity lets a carry walk through the pit and the fire instead of standing in them.
Counter items
Silver EdgeIts Break disables Atrophy Aura and the kill-based damage bonus.
Black King BarNegates enemy spell effects, so Pit of Malice cannot root and Firestorm cannot burn.
