Full matchup plan

Early game · first 8 minutes

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, build Fixation with sustained hits only while the shooting exchange is safe. Save Sleep Dagger to protect your partner or catch an exposed enemy.

Mid game · Walkers

Watch whether Pocket actually teleports to Flying Cloak before following. Stand outside Enchanter’s Satchel’s explosion and wait until Pocket emerges before attacking. Keep shooting Pocket from cover to build Fixation.

Late game · Patron

Leave space between allies before Pocket reaches you with Affliction. Fully upgraded Affliction prevents healing. Protect affected teammates from follow-up attacks. Keep shooting Pocket from cover to build Fixation.
