Anti-Magic is a great spell for a number of reasons.  It can make powerful spellcasting heroes have to focus on a limited amount of units.  Computer players enjoy bashing level-1 units, especially Master Gremlins.  Cast Anti-Magic on them and the enemy will have to alter its [[Lightning Bolt]]/[[Magic Arrow]]/[[Meteor Shower]]technique and be forced to destroy them the old way: thru hack and slash.  Sometimes [[Master Genie]]s can cast this spell on a unit and this is very helpful.  The unfortunate thing about Anti-Magic however, is that you can't cast [[Resurrection]] or [[Animate Dead]] to bring back lost units.

Anti-magic can limit the number of creature stacks available for negative spells, which one of the most common ones is [[blind]]. However, the downside for anti-magic is, that you can not cast [[resurrection]] (or [[animate dead]]) to bring back lost creatures, unless the stack is completely dead. Even though dispel can cancel the effect of anti-magic, it uses enemy hero's spellcasting for that combat round. Also, dispel at expert level can have some unwanted affects.

Anti-magic can limit the number of creature stacks available for negative spells, which one of the most common ones is blind. However, the downside for anti-magic is, that you can not cast resurrection (or animate dead) to bring back lost creatures, unless the stack is completely dead. Even though dispel can cancel the effect of anti-magic, it uses enemy hero's spellcasting for that combat round. Also, dispel at expert level can have some unwanted affects.
