Typically people learn through trial, error and memorisation.

If there's a visual tell, or something in it's name/castbar, that informs you coincounters attack will be a 360 degree avoidable AoE from his center then I stand corrected. Otherwise it's just a cheeseball unavoidable death with no tell as to what it is.

If the point of the attack is that you HAVE to be hit by it to learn what it does and adjust accordingly, then it PROBABLY shouldn't kill you in one hit.
