Inteference is only useful on heroes aiming to face opposing heroes. Even then its use is limited to shortening the duration or damage of opponent's spells, reducing the amount of hit points they might resurrect, or the number of elementals they might summon.

In quick skirmish games with small armies, where spell damage or elementals matter, it might be useful, but in other formats it is mostly a wasted slot.

A possible exception to this is Giselle, who at high levels can reduce the spell power of any enemy to 1, regardless of how high it is.

For other, non-main heroes it is completely useless.
