'''Apollo''' is a [[Hero]] in ''[[Deadlock]]''. With Flawless Advance the fencer begins his approach, timing his strikes perfectly to inflict more damage. Counter-attacks aren't a concern for Apollo, as a flourish of his blade deflects the damage and triggers a quick Riposte, and Disengaging Sigil allows him to jump out of the fray with ease. For his final blow, Apollo dons his fencer's mask and channels [[Ixia]]'s might with Itani Lo Sahn, leaving enemies defeated in his wake.

As the prince of [[Ixia]], Apollo comes from a land of beauty, tradition and conflict. Political violence was common in Ixia, but when Apollo was sent to New York for his own safety, he knew the situation was serious. Now a highly skilled fencer at [[Blackmore Academy]], Apollo knows that in due time, he will be called back to Ixia... and when he returns, he will show why he's worthy to wield his family's ancestral blade.

* Despite being described as a "debuff", [[Time Slow]] on enemies cannot be shortened by items such as {{ItemIcon|Debuff Reducer}}.
* Apollo must channel Itani Lo Sahn for {{DataProp|Itani Lo Sahn|AbilityCastDelay}}s before he can execute the actual lunge effect.
* After completing the ability channel, Apollo can continue to hold down his ability hotkey to delay executing the lunge. Apollo can delay the lunge like this indefinitely.
* Enemies closer to Apollo's original cast location receive less time slow (and thereby take damage sooner); enemies farther from Apollo's original cast location receive more time slow (and thereby take damage later).
* Itani Lo Sahn damage is tied to the natural expiration of the time slow debuff. If an enemy manages to dispel the time slow effect debuff prematurely (i.e. their ally uses {{ItemIcon|Divine Barrier}}), they will not take any damage. This also means that if any enemy has a status effect that makes them immune to the effects of time slow (such as {{ItemIcon|Unstoppable}}), they will take the damage almost instantly.
* Enemies struck by Apollo are still able to parry. This allows them to block the damage with {{ItemIcon|Counterspell}}.
