Ivern is a Battlemage that deals magic (AP) damage and brings airborne, root, slow. Some of their lockdown (airborne) ignores tenacity, so you dodge it; you can't cleanse or Merc' through it. Below is Ivern's highest-win-rate build from high-elo games; open the counter-build tool to tune it against your specific enemy team.
