How do you counter Ogre Mages?

Question

I try single units and they wipe them out and destroy my squads. They are so tanky, kill air and land units and have elemental ranged AOE! How the fuck do I deal with the fuckers?

Any single target melee hard counters him, so Worgen, Stonehoof Tauren, Quillboar. A lot of the leaders also hard counter him i.e. Grom, Cairne, Maiev, Hogger, Tyrion

He's kind of like a huntress but a bit slower. Can be difficult to take out at times but he costs 5g so it's fine to spend a bit on getting him down. Especially if you have a minion surviving.

Tauren owns him or any of the unbound melee.

If there's ever anything that seems OP or problematic just drop an unbound mini on them and poof gonezo 😂

I like the unbound, stealthed worgen with the damage talent.

Wait till the melee units with it lock on to something/lil out of range, and drop bandits on it to stun lock just before it gets its first cast off

Or prowler near it, but not right next to it, to charge stun and kill it

Stonehoof is amazing for it. Charges to the back line and kills the mage almost instantly

Unbound units help a lot with the ranged aoe dps guys like ogre magi, pyro, flamewaker, etc.

Place a worgen or quillboar behind them so they can’t aoe your army

I started yesterday and passed those before I knew what they did. I'll look at finding them.

Quilboar is very good. It has resistance which means half damage from elemental. Dropping him behind orge, pyromancer, drake, flamewaker, etc is very strong for 2 gold.

Abom shits on ranged units, but yeah unbounds to disract or tauren/prowler works well too.
