Full matchup plan

Early game · first 8 minutes

Clear nearby Deadheads before taking a long exchange with Graves, and go around Grasping Hands’ rift. Take cover when Essence Theft weakens your weapon damage and Spirit resistance. Land repeated Screwjab Dagger hits on one enemy to increase its damage and slow.

Mid game · Walkers

Clear summons threatening your Walker before chasing Graves. Destroy Borrowed Decree’s gravestone with two heavy melees when your team can protect you.

Late game · Patron

Take a clean Bola line on Graves outside the rift as soon as it opens up -- don't wait around just because Borrowed Decree got cast. Clear away any Deadheads that are blocking you or putting you in danger, land Venom on Graves from outside Grasping Hands' range, then Dagger once ordinary damage can connect.
