Full matchup plan

Early game · first 8 minutes

Use cover to stop Shiv landing repeated Serrated Knives, which add bleed stacks and refresh their duration. Move sideways as Slice and Dice starts. Bloodletting delays some damage, so keep your distance while it takes effect. Build Fixation on one target while you can shoot from cover. Save Sleep Dagger to protect your partner or catch an exposed enemy.

Mid game · Walkers

Dodge Slice and Dice, then aim Sleep Dagger at Shiv’s visible position. Let your wounded teammate get clear before waking him with damage. Start Bullet Dance only while Shiv is in reach and your team can protect you; do not pursue him beyond your allies to keep shooting.

Late game · Patron

Protect wounded allies before Shiv reaches them with Killing Blow. At full rage, Slice and Dice can repeat its path, so move clear after the first pass. Healing reduction limits his recovery but does not stop Bloodletting from delaying damage. Keep shooting Shiv from cover to build Fixation.
