DOCTRINE
51.9% win rate as Lash · 30,727 matches
Use cover against Power Slash’s charge and keep a route back to your teammate when Yamato uses Flying Slash. Crimson Slash heals her when it hits a hero, so avoid letting her hit both of you at close range. Land Ground Strike where your partner can attack, then use Flog to heal. Save stamina or a Grapple target to reach cover.
Hold damage during Shadow Transformation’s initial invincibility. Yamato returns with refreshed abilities, high resistance and immunity to negative effects. Move away if your team cannot fight through them.
Protect wounded teammates during Shadow Transformation; kills heal Yamato and extend it. Attack together after it ends. Fully upgraded Flying Slash gives her another charge and lets her escape to allies. After Shadow Transformation ends, land Ground Strike on Yamato when your team can follow. Keep Grapple for a target near safety, or save stamina for the way out.
