Question about Zemo cleanse vs. Onslaught and Apoc

edited January 3 in General Discussion
Why is Zemo cleansing the parry-stun of Onslaught or Apoc, and not getting passivly stunned instead?
This interaction can't be correct. Is this on the bug-fix radar of the devs already?
Thx

    Because cleanse isn't purification, its a different mechanic, like stagger and nullify.

    If that's the reason and is functioning as intended, now i know. Thank you.

    Cleanse is a partially different mechanic than Purify.

    However, if Zemo is Cleansing stuns of any kind, then it's a bug:

    Except for when he can in these 2 specific scenarios apparently. I smell a bug or something that's not written in someone's kit

    That is true. I just tried it with Apoc vs Zemo and Zemo can't cleanse the parry.

    So maybe another thing at play?
    Nodes?
    OP not realsing the not contact attacks can't be parried and is misconstruing that as a cleanse.

    I had this couple of times with Apoc against Zemo in high tier aw lane 7, when he was 100% cleansing my Apoc stun because charges where minus 1 afterwards.
    The same way he cleanses my parry stun when i'm using Onslaught, when i parry his first L attack and his cleansing charges are 1 charge less afterwards, so he definitely is cleansing, what is not supposed to happen. Clearly it's not intended, when you look at Zemos description.

    No, on 34 it's the weakness debuffs that reduce his cleanse buffs cause of close proximity.
    Instead it happened on Apoc/Zemo matchups on node 7 and 25 a couple of times.

    Nope. Neutralize would be tranquilize
