Notes

  • Counterspell prevents all damage from a Walker stomp, but does not prevent the stun.
  • Counterspell does not proc when parrying   Viscous'   Puddle Punch, since the ability can be deflected by regular parries.
  • Counterspell can prevent   Lash's   Death Slam if the player parries at the moment they would be pulled.
  • Counterspell can be used on   The Doorman's   Hotel Guest. However, it will still send you to the Baroness Hotel.
  • Counterspell can be used on   Celeste's   Shining Wonder. However, the orb will continue to linger on you and can bounce onto other heroes.
  • Counterspell can prevent the build-up of stacking effects, such as   Haze's   Fixation and   Mirage's   Djinn's Mark. However, it does not remove stacks applied before the parry and does not prevent the damage of Djinn's Mark from proccing.
