How to play Dynamo

Quantum Entanglement1Quantum EntanglementSingularity2Singularity

Your combo: Teleport into their team with Quantum Entanglement (briefly untargetable), then channel Singularity for 2.75s, pulling everyone nearby in and stunning them.

Don’t waste: Singularity is a 2.75s channel that a stun or silence breaks, and Unstoppable suppresses its stun. Cast it when their CC is spent.

Edge: One Singularity on a tightly grouped team can decide the fight: wait for them to bunch up.

From community hero guides, Oct 2026 patches, checked against deadlock.wiki. The same combo from the other side is on how to counter Dynamo.
