I am unsure if this is intended. But Apollo's Ultimate Description in the game states that once hit, nobody can take an action or heal.

Yet I find that once you have been hit by Apollo's Ultimate, you can parry the damage part of it. I find it to be inconsistent with the description of the ultimate cause, a parry is still doing an action. Apollos ultimate's initial hit being counterspellable thats fine, Apollo can play a mindgame by holding the ult if he thinks they are going to parry. But the second hit should not allow players to parry, according to the description.

In my opinion, this negates Apollo's ultimate to the point of it being almost like the doorman counterspell shenanigans, where they were not punished for not finishing the course and counterspelling the fall to negate the damage.

Bump. Seems silly to let counterspell work on delayed effect spells especially when it curses them initially

Oh yeah, that doesn't make sense.
