hello.

what's the difference of the status effects that causes a unit to stop

stun,freeze,maim, being ensnared, asleep, overgrowth, (any other examples?) or any other special conditions.....

I know some of them has effects, or still a chance to attack, but what's the difference?

Stun - You can't attack, move or do anything but wait until the stun effect has worn out.
Freeze (e.g. Rylai's Frostbite) - You can't move, although you can cast certain spells. From experience you can't use dagger or blink.
Maim - Maim is the result of getting attacked by an enemy bearing a Sange. Basically, your movement speed is decreased, that's it. You can still however attack and cast spells.
Ensnare (e.g. Naga Siren's spell) - You can't move, can't blink, can't do anything. The difference with stun is this doesn't deal damage until someone attacks you. I also think that anyone under the Avatar effect can still be trapped.
Asleep (e.g. Naga Siren's Song of the Siren) - This one just puts you to sleep. You can't attack nor cast spells. Similarly, nothing can be done to you by the enemy until you wake up. This is great for team pushes. Atropos's Nightmare puts you to sleep and deals damage. But whoever attacks you will put him under the spell instead and wake you up as a result.
Overgrowth (e.g. Rooftrellen's spell) - Traps multiple targets and deals damage. You can cast any spell except Blink.

Ensnare = Renders you immobile. You can still attack and be attacked. You can also cast spells. As far as I know, you can use blink [it is a physical disable]. You can also use nether swap while ensnared.

Entangle [Spirit Bear] = Same as Overgrowth

Cyclone = Renders you immobile. You can't atttack and cast spells, but you are invulnerable until the duration is over.

Hex = Slows you to 100 movespeed. All attacks to you will pass through armor.

Impale - The unit with this buff is invulnerable, but will fly for a second and will land with damage.
Purge - Slows the unit with this buff, and removing buffs currently before this skill was used, except this skill.
Upheaval - Dramatically slows any enemy unit with this buff.
Silence - The units with this buff cannot cast spells.
Decriptify - Slows down the unit with this buff, and becoming etheral. While etheral, the unit cannot be attacked with attacks except magic attacks and spells. While the unit is decreptified, it will take more damage to spells.
Doom - The unit with this buff will gradually lose HP until the buff ends. While doomed, the unit/hero cannot cast spells or use items.
