Full matchup plan

Early game · first 8 minutes

Keep shooting exchanges short so Infernus cannot build Afterburn freely. Leave Flame Dash’s burning trail and break his firing line to limit further hits that refresh the burn. Use Fire Scarabs before extending a shooting exchange, and take cover between opportunities to add Djinn’s Marks. Existing marks still damage their target when consumed or expired.

Mid game · Walkers

Move out of Concussive Combustion’s explosion radius when it starts. Stunning Infernus will not stop the countdown, so keep moving out of range.

Late game · Patron

Spread out and keep a route away from Concussive Combustion. Use protection from stuns before the explosion if you must remain close. Avoid standing in Flame Dash’s trail or letting Infernus refresh Afterburn while you try to finish an objective. Hit Infernus with Fire Scarabs to reduce their damage, then follow with gunfire from cover.
