Full matchup plan

Early game · first 8 minutes

Check the ground for Hex-Lined Snap Trap and shoot visible traps before getting closer. Avoid fighting with a wall behind you, where Gutshot can stun you. Move away from allies if Consecrating Grenade sets you on fire. Land Light Eater, then shoot that target for its extra damage and lifesteal.

Mid game · Walkers

Use cover when Venator loads Ira Domini. Avoid narrow routes where Gutshot or Hex-Lined Snap Trap can hold you for his next shot.

Late game · Patron

Use solid cover when Venator loads Ira Domini. Wait for him to fire the stakes or for the active timer to expire before advancing; blessed stakes can execute low-health enemies. Mark Venator with Light Eater, then shoot from a position near cover.
