If you remove his ult with QSS, the tether stays and just deals damage, it doesn't try to re-apply the suppression after QSS is used (that would make QSS literally useless against him).

I don't see why Black Shield would behave any differently. It should block the suppression on-cast, then the tether will just deal damage to you, even if Black Shield breaks.
