Full matchup plan

Early game · first 8 minutes

Use cover or troopers to block Grapple Arm. If Bebop catches you, get away once you can act. Keep an attached Sticky Bomb away from teammates. Charge Power Slash beside cover. Follow with Flying Slash when your partner can help, saving stamina for the way out.

Mid game · Walkers

Get behind solid cover when Hyper Beam starts; Bebop can turn the beam as you move. Use cover from both the beam and his teammates. Use Power Slash from outside the damaging area. If you must stay close, activate Shadow Transformation before you are disabled and keep a safe target or stamina for leaving afterward.

Late game · Patron

Help the teammate Grapple Arm catches by pressuring Bebop or the enemy following up. Keep an attached Sticky Bomb away from other allies and avoid lining up for Hyper Beam. Use Power Slash from a safe position before closing on Bebop. Save Shadow Transformation for a fight your team can support.
