How do I counter attack in Wuthering Waves?

A counter attack is a special kind of move that you can only perform under special conditions. When an enemy is about to perform a special move, a yellow halo will appear around them. If you attack this enemy while the halo is visible, you will trigger a counter attack. A counter will interrupt this special attack, block it, and hit the enemy with a move of your own. The command input for a counter attack is the same as that of a regular attack.

Wuthering Waves is available for PCs and mobile devices.
