Global Silence can interrupt Black Hole from anywhere on the map, forcing Enigma to either catch Silencer in it or not use it altogether until he is dead or Global Silence is on cooldown. Even if Enigma is under the effects of BKB or any other form of debuff immunity Global Silence would still interrupt BLack Hole's channel.
