Illusion Magic
Illusion magic like many magics, normally uses an arcane base. Those who practice this art are known as Illusionists, and are capable of making illusions that can fool one or many people. Such examples of illusion magic would be the mage's invisibility spell or their mirror image. Or possibly a blood elven rogue's after images when dashing. It can range from a wide variety from changing the area or conjuring hallucinations.

Area Manipulation
A part of illusion magic that specializes in making a certain area look as whatever you make it out to be with magic. It is used necessarily to cause someone to lose concentration. Like one might make the one affected by the illusion see themselves bleeding to death or make the floor disappear and make them feel as if they were falling into a bottomless pit.

Other senses manipulation
Illusion magic can fool the senses into believing the unreal. A mage could make an illusion in which the mage is constantly slashing their victim with a magical blade, and the victim is unable to move. Or vice versa, make the victim think they have the upper hand by thinking they're killing the mage.

Among the senses, you can make those affected hear or smell taste or see, feel the illusion is real. When in actuality they might be frozen in place or on the ground or swinging at something that isn't there.

You can make them hear the explosion of the well of eternity at maximum volume for as long as you want, or make them taste rot. But one likely needs to have functioning senses to begin with, so with undead who seem to lack taste or feeling, you could likely make them see something that isn't real and hear things that aren't there.

Disguises and catalysts
Using illusion magic could also allow you to sneak into enemy lines undetected, each one believing you to be a different individual and then backstab them. Or make yourself look like Sargeras for intimidation. There are many cataclysts for illusion magic, one of them is darkness or mist or fog. Anything that reduces visibility to allow it to transition to the illusion better.
