Full matchup plan
Mid game · Walkers
Hold damage during Shadow Transformation’s initial invincibility. Yamato returns with refreshed abilities, high resistance and immunity to negative effects. Move away if your team cannot fight through them.
Late game · Patron
Protect wounded teammates during Shadow Transformation; kills heal Yamato and extend it. Attack together after it ends. Fully upgraded Flying Slash gives her another charge and lets her escape to allies. After Shadow Transformation ends, use Leaping Slash on Yamato once you can reach her safely, keeping Return to Shadows for the enemy’s response.
