Avoid Barrage’s projectiles so Pocket cannot build damage amplification from repeated hero hits. Watch the route of Flying Cloak and keep clear of Enchanter’s Satchel’s exit explosion. Pocket can wait before teleporting to the cloak. While Pocket is targetable, hit the enemy hero with Leaping Slash to recover health, then leave before their teammate can focus you.
Watch whether Pocket actually teleports to Flying Cloak before following. Stand outside Enchanter’s Satchel’s explosion and wait until Pocket emerges before attacking. Use Leaping Slash on Pocket once you can reach them safely, keeping Return to Shadows for the enemy’s response.
Leave space between allies before Pocket reaches you with Affliction. Fully upgraded Affliction prevents healing. Protect affected teammates from follow-up attacks. Use Leaping Slash on Pocket once you can reach them safely, keeping Return to Shadows for the enemy’s response.
