  Mephisto has an ability where he prevents any buff activation for the opponent for 15 seconds at the start of the fight. That's why ice armour doesn't trigger

  You need to use your sp3 to reform your ice armor against him

  It also prevents the timer from restarting after Mephisto’s buff prevention expires

  It also prevents medusa from triggering her furies. I guess it's some sort of bug with mephisto

  It's not a bug, it's how Mephisto works. His soul imprisonment makes it so the opponent doesn't gain any buffs for 15 seconds. Since Ice Armor is an buff and not a passive, Iceman doesn't gain it. Medusa is the same way, furies are buffs, so they don't activate

  You misunderstand. Iceman’s armour is supposed to reform 12 seconds after it’s removed but Mephisto stops the armour reforming infinitely unless you use an l3.
