    Can go Dispel/Counter/Veil over Warp

    1. Dispel MagicDispel MagicIf there's slowing hexes or silence waves, you will need this.
    2. CounterspellCounterspellCan be bad due to desync but it's good against mobile burst heroes like Calico / Lash / Pocket and it can also save you from CC. Usually Warp Stone is better if you can't buy both.
    3. Metal SkinMetal SkinGood if you are getting jumped by a roaming Haze that doesn't have Curse or if you need it to survive vs. gun Warden / Geist / etc. Also good when popping certain ults like Dynamo or Seven.
