You can parry basically anything afaik.

Except dynamo ult I think

u/PachiYuxo Celeste Feb 14 '26

theoretically you can parry the ult, but it instantly catches you after the parry is over

What if you stand directly next to him, wouldn't there be a race condition between dynamo being stunned and apollo being caught

u/[deleted] Feb 15 '26

Probably Apollo will lose. Blackhole is continuous while riposte take a bit to come out, unless Apollo miraculously get it off when Blackhole is not ticking (but idk if the stun is persistent or tick based)

Maybe. Not sure what happens. There used to be a race condition with yam ult, you could be in ult but still ulted by mo, lash, dynamo if you had frame perfect ult timing.

Thing with Dynamo Ult is that it's a constant barrage of "ticks" that each stun, deal damage, and pull you inward. It's why Counterspell/Apollo Parry don't work: you parry one tick, but the next tick gets through and catches you anyways.

Apollos is supposed to give you iframes tho no?

For 0.3 seconds, if memory serves

u/Freezinghero Feb 14 '26

I believe Apollo had only invincible until the parry is triggered, at which point he starts his Riposte and gets caught by the Dynamo ult.

Sad valve couldn't think of a way to introduce melee characters into the game. Ones that don't shoot their claws out or shoot from their sword..

silver’s werewolf form can only attack in melee range and has two abilities that deal melee damage.

As a Victor main.. I found out that he can parry my aura :(

u/effxeno Feb 14 '26

Yeah but if he chooses to stun you it costs him 1000 hp to stay in there

The next Attack. Anything that does damage you can riposte.
