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 Afterburn with gunfire, keeping Flame Dash for a route back to your partner.
Watch whether Pocket actually teleports to Flying Cloak before following. Stand outside Enchanter’s Satchel’s explosion and wait until Pocket emerges before attacking. Use Napalm and gunfire on Pocket to build Afterburn, then keep Flame Dash available to leave if their team turns on you.
Leave space between allies before Pocket reaches you with Affliction. Fully upgraded Affliction prevents healing. Protect affected teammates from follow-up attacks. Use Napalm and gunfire on Pocket to build Afterburn, then keep Flame Dash available to leave if their team turns on you.
