Electrician Cleansing Shock

Dispel removes certain buffs or debuffs from the target. In most cases, dispelling an ally unit removes debuffs (negative effects, red border) and dispelling an enemy removes buffs (positive effects, green border), but there are some dispels that remove both Buffs & Debuffs. Only a few dispels remove stuns. In addition, certain status effects cannot be removed at all (blue border), unless explicitly specified.
