Apollo is 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.
Apollo was released on February 12, 2026 as the last hero of the Old Gods, New Blood update.

“A land of beauty, tradition and conflict; North Ixia is no stranger to brutal political violence. So when Apollo was told that it was for his own safety he was being sent to New York for school, he knew the situation was serious.
Adjusting to life at Blackmore Academy didn’t come easy to Apollo. His school was supposed to be filled with The Cursed Apple’s best and brightest but all he saw, with few exceptions, was a sea of aggressive mediocrity. Electing not to waste his time with frivolous things like parties and dances, he instead put his energy on the piste, where he rigorously trains as captain of the Blackmore fencing team.
However, at the end of the day Apollo does not fret too much on the tedium of life in New York. He knows that eventually the time will come when his father will call on him to come home and he will get to show that he is worthy of wielding his family's ancestral blade.
Apollo comes from Ixian royalty, titled as "the Prince of Ixia."[1][2] He holds his culture in high regard.[3][4]
Apollo's wish is unknown, but he seems to be fighting for the sake of his father and the whole of Ixia.[5][6]
As a native Ixian, Apollo is fluent in the Ixian language.[7] His ultimate "Itani Lo San" means "I have no equal".[8]
Apollo is implied to be extremely vain.[9][10]
Haze is worried about Apollo participating in the ritual since him dying would cause an international incident.[11][12]
Krill compares Apollo to a teenage version of 
Lash.[9]View the full update history: Apollo/Update history
