How Dynamo beats Apollo

Your game plan as Dynamo

The fight-warper. Dynamo’s whole game is the one Singularity that wins the match.

Lane
Kinetic Pulse knocks up and trades well; Quantum Entanglement escapes and restores stamina.
Mid game
Heal with Rejuvenating Aurora between fights. Join every objective — you’re the team’s reset button.
Late game
Singularity into a grouped team is the best ultimate in the game when it lands. Teleport in with Quantum Entanglement, pop it, let allies follow.

How to beat Apollo

A fencer. Apollo wins duels by deflecting your best shot and riposting into you.

  • 01Don’t throw your key ability into Riposte. Wait for it to expire, then commit.
  • 02Spread out; Itani Lo Sahn is a long slash that rewards stacked teams.
  • 03Hard CC before he lunges: Flawless Advance commits him forward.
