So there's no way to bypass his damage due to block?
I already told you if you remove all his armor buffs you can hit his block safely

This. The only way you can hit his block and NOT take damage if he has armor ups is with Namor (as someone already said as well) as he'll reflect the damage.

I do hit into his block with Venompool, at least if we're talking about Battlegrounds-sized healthpools and attack values. It's a quick way to get rid of his autoblock or unstoppable, and if you're quick enough you can usually defend against any attacks he throws at you when that happens. Obviously you take a bit of damage, but Venompool's SP1 regen is insane when you're on nomming armor up buffs (which Red Skull obviously has in spades). If you trigger the on nom on every hit and Red Skull has enough armor ups, you can regen 30% of your max health with one SP1. Even if you just om nom one armor up, that's 10% health. That's still usually more than enough to offset whatever damage you took from tapping him gently on the block.

Venompool is one of the most reliable Red Skull counters out there.

He has too many counters to even list them all.
What are we doing here?

Ameeica chavez with iron fist relic works Greta against him.
Kate bishop, once cornered just punish his sp 1 and play normally due the crush passive.
Vox, chell lilit (or whatever her names is writing).

Mordo probably is the fastest as he can parry him just fine. Just parry hold heavy then sp2

AWESOME under-utilized tactic; parry goes out the window because he reduces it’s accuracy with each armor. AAR immune? don’t gotta worry about that.

Shuri, but they take forever to kill each other (double shock immune). AA works like a charm once them tox’s are up. Mysterio? sure! parry/ heavy style, then watch the auto block.

also, don’t punch them armors. to reiterate. he drains power (Vpool works for this!), then as a separate action, does direct damage (Vpool not so much).

So all in all there is no one who can hit his block when skull has armours up and take 0 damage in return, right?

I am not great at playing most buffed champs.

I’m pretty against red skull (nazis and ****).

Don’t hit his block. After sp1 wait out the autoblock.

That’s it. That’s literally all you need to know.

Nope not from my memory . You just have to get used to not hitting block

Like at least two other people have said: Namor, at max Sig will take zero damage hitting into Skull's block.

Power Drain immunity won't cut it.

There are a few other champions that you might think would work because they can prevent passive direct damage (Gambit, Stryfe, Daredevil HK) but none of their passive damage reduction abilities seem to work against Red Skull.

Because he can till parry and inflict the bleeds I suppose. He ain't the greatest but a decent option. And since it's parry heavy, none of red skulla mechanics come into play

Venom

Nah I tried venom but red skull crit resistance is too much and you can’t get off enough armor breaks from the heavy alone

Mint9aer0

True still like a stun immune but venoms immune to skulls power burn and drain so freely hit into block. Also unblockable and true strike under 18 health. Yes not THE best counter but not everyone has access to the best. Sometimes you have to work round it

I wish I had a 6 or 7* Dr Voodoo, used my 5* on him in AQs, parry stun to sp1 and turn his armor ups into spirit venom.
