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. Throw Consecrating Grenade at Infernus before your team’s next attack; its burn reduces the healing they receive.

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. Throw Consecrating Grenade at Infernus, then fire Ira Domini from beside cover when the firing line is clear. Blessed stakes can execute low-health enemies.
