On paper that sounds solid.
In practice it is underwhelming because he basically sat there and allowed them to do it without any resistance.

NotAllThatEvilperpetual new guy.
Earlier thst episode he used his powers so that they couldn't use them. Whst you saw is actually their second attempt, and he still thinks all ponies are under his spell as he called applejack a liar.

Neat but he clearly saw them working their magicks on him(after all why bother ducking a few of the attacks?) and still sat there dumbfounded.
