Mid game · Walkers
Put Grasping Hands across Rat King’s route toward you. Shoot him while he is rooted so Essence Theft weakens his gun and Spirit resistance.
Late game · Patron
Place Borrowed Decree behind your team. Put Grasping Hands between Rat King and the gravestone. He can destroy it with two heavy melees if he reaches it.
