How Apollo beats Haze
Assassin vs Assassin
Assassin mirrors are decided by who sees the other first. Track their cooldowns and never commit while their escape is up.
Your game plan as Apollo
A fencer. Apollo wins duels by deflecting your best shot and riposting into you.
Lane
Poke with Disengaging Sigil and use its leap to dodge trades. Save Riposte for a predictable incoming ability.
Mid game
Flank fights and look for heroes who blow their cooldowns early; Flawless Advance chains lunges into a kill.
Late game
Itani Lo Sahn is a long-range lockdown that also stops healing. Use it on the enemy carry or healer to open the fight.
How to beat Haze
The one-sided exchange. Haze wants to shoot you while you can’t shoot back.
- 01Hold a stun for Bullet Dance. Any reliable CC ends it.
- 02Enemies close to Haze can see through Smoke Bomb, so stay near teammates.
- 03Pressure her lane early; Haze is weakest before her items.
