Full matchup plan

Early game · first 8 minutes

Avoid Vexing Bolt and keep track of Spectral Assistant, which adds attacks and gives Sinclair a position to swap to. Avoid Rabbit Hex before it prevents you from acting; it does not interrupt abilities already running. Save Disengaging Sigil to get back out after Flawless Advance. Use Riposte against an incoming hero attack; trooper fire will not trigger it.

Mid game · Walkers

Pressure Sinclair when Rabbit Hex is unavailable, while watching the Spectral Assistant he can swap to. Use your ultimate when it helps the fight; withholding it does not prevent Audience Participation from choosing it.

Late game · Patron

Keep space against Rabbit Hex’s area upgrade, and respond to the copied ultimate when Sinclair uses it. Pressure him after his escape or protection is spent, while keeping a route back to your team. Reach Sinclair with Flawless Advance, keeping Disengaging Sigil for the way back to your team.
