magic mirror is underrated

Because it can't be dispelled, and it allows beneficial spells so you can cast all the protection spells (if you have a single stack you have the time) whatever makes it past the reflecting only does 25% damage you are basically impervious to magic versus the enemy.
It's ruined by mass-everything.
It deserves it's level-5 status and I look forward to using it.

Magic Mirror cannot be dispelled?, are you sure about that?

I even made it a mass spell in my game and made it 5 mana cheaper and I still never feel like casting it.
It's only purpose seems to be to protect Gold Dragons from Implosion. (That is if they get the turn first of course...)

That's anti-magic
unless you have one of those many wonderous orbs that allow you to do rule-breaking things
It's gotta be muscle memory..
but only good against other heroes (although I feel it should work against faerie dragons - make them walk)

magic mirror is godly spell in WoG when applied to high level monsters before the map starts, so it becomes a permanent ability. It can be dispelled though, for the current turn only.

Can Magic Mirror vs Armageddon?

Ok Titan + Magic Mirror + Force Field, for example against AI.. Much better than Anti-Magic due to Resurrection.. Another alternative lvl 7 creatures due to Slow, Berserk, Implosion..

I cast Magic Mirror often or sometimes in H4..

@Sal
sounds like they reversed it and made it indispensible

Ghost
it doesn't work against AOE so Arm,fireball,Ch.lightning etc.
BUT who says you can't add anti-magic to it
HAHAHA

This is weird.
I went to sleep thinking I was wrong because all the documentation says dispel works against everything except disrupting ray, and so does google ai.
But i just tested it now hota 1.7.0 and "this spell affects no one!" on both multi and vs ai
So I guess somehow it stays level5 was thinking I had to downgrade it to lvl3..


edit: I had water magic @basic so that's why I couldn't dispel anything
hmm MM really is sucky - what can we do to make it better?
note: if you make the probablity% 50 of reflection or above it seems like the AI never casts (magic arrow) against you.. but does it cast dispel when appropriate?

chainlightning is NOT reflected at any point (wiki is wrong)
so basically the only damage spells it reflects is
magic arrow, icebolt, lightning bolt, implosion
FOUR spells

With mass-everything negative spells it's so utterly useless it might as well be that D&D spell that blocks magic arrow ONLY

What is it even doing
