* Omniknight: An undispellable Heavenly Grace can easily save a victim of Shadow Demon.

* Dragon Slave will make quick work of the spawned illusions from Disruption.

* Purification's pure damage makes it hard for Bloodseeker to pursue enemies, and prevents him from replenishing his health by finishing off enemies.
