Full matchup plan

Early game · first 8 minutes

Stop attacking during Riposte; bullets can trigger it too. Attack after it ends, keeping room to dodge Flawless Advance. Then use Arctic Beam while your partner can follow its slow with damage, but break off if sustaining it exposes you to both opponents.

Mid game · Walkers

Attack Apollo with a teammate from separate positions so one Itani Lo Sahn cannot catch both of you. Keep your strongest attack for after Riposte ends, and avoid following Disengaging Sigil into his teammates.

Late game · Patron

Move out of Itani Lo Sahn’s path during its wind-up. Apollo is invulnerable during the slash sequence; when it ends, protect the affected ally and attack him together. After the healing lock ends, throw Frost Grenade to heal the threatened teammate while keeping your own distance from the attacker.
