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, use Ground Strike from above when the landing is safe, then Flog enemies within reach to recover health. Keep a dash or a Grapple target near cover for the way out.

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. Land Ground Strike on Pocket when your team can follow. Keep Grapple for a target near safety, or save stamina for the way out.

Late game · Patron
