Full matchup plan

Early game · first 8 minutes

Check the ground for Hex-Lined Snap Trap and shoot visible traps before getting closer. Avoid fighting with a wall behind you, where Gutshot can stun you. Move away from allies if Consecrating Grenade sets you on fire. 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

Use cover when Venator loads Ira Domini. Avoid narrow routes where Gutshot or Hex-Lined Snap Trap can hold you for his next shot. Use Ice Path to reach safer ground before your movement is disabled, keeping the route out of the enemy’s firing line.

Late game · Patron

Use solid cover when Venator loads Ira Domini. Wait for him to fire the stakes or for the active timer to expire before advancing; blessed stakes can execute low-health enemies. Throw Frost Grenade to heal the threatened teammate while keeping your own distance from the attacker.
