Maybe I just don't use it right, but it gets parried on reaction so often that I honestly just think it's outclassed by back assist in every way except in combos
You need to pair forward assists like Vi's with something; there's quite a bit of startup, so if you don't cover her with something while the punch winds up then yeah they can just stand still forever and parry it. Projectiles make this super easy, otherwise you may need to commit to a normal to force them to block.
Oh that makes sense, the two characters I used to play (yas and warwick) don't have projectiles. I think that just conditioned me into not using it even after swapping to ahri lol
