Macro with Frozen Orb and Mirror Image question

Dear community, I wanted to make a macro with
/cast Icy Veins
/cast Mirror Image
/cast Frozen Orb

But with this macro, the Frozen Orb won't launch, only if I set Frozen Orb at the first rule: if I replace /cast Icy Veins with /cast Frozen Orb and /cast Icy Veins to the place of /cast Frozen Orb. Can someone tell me why and how can I properly set the commands without these sort of problems?

The problem is that you're trying to cast two spells that are on the global cooldown at the same time.
Exactly.
Icy Veins has no global cooldown so you can couple that with any other spell or ability, but the other two have the typical 1.5 sec global cooldown, so you need to either put them into separate bindings, use a modifier, or use a castsequence.
