Debuff Immunity

From Liquipedia Dota 2 Wiki
Fear nothing!

Debuff Immunity is a buff that prevents the targeting of most spells no matter what damage type they are. Whether or not a spell pierces immunity is unique to the spell. Most ultimate abilities will pierce spell immunity in some way, either through damage, status effects, or both.
