			{{fanopinion\|
			Hypnotize is a powerful but highly contextual spell. As the HP threshold is not affected by creature stacks taking damage, it usually simply cannot be cast in large battles between main hero armies; all creature stacks will likely have a HP pool too large to hypnotize and if there is an outlier smaller stack it is likely too small to significantly affect play.

			Its niche is in smaller battles between armies of 1-2 weeks of creature growth. In such close-fought battles, turning a 7v7 stack battle into 8v6 is very significant. Compare the dynamic with [[Blind]] and Basic-level [[Berserk]], when the stars align for Hypnotize is even more powerful.

			Considering this niche usability and the largely insignificant scaling with [[Air Magic]] it is definitely not worthwhile to build a strategy around the spell. But it is a good spell to have in your spell book, particularly for secondary heroes with decent Power skill.

			The hypnotised unit inherits properties of artifacts which provide magic immunity from their opponent instead of their hero, as long as it is under the effect of the spell. As a result, a hero with the [[Pendant of Free Will]] or a [[Sleepkeeper]]{{-wh}} will be unable to re-cast the spell on their enemy, once the stack is hypnotized.
