Full matchup plan

Early game · first 8 minutes

Sidestep Billy’s Rising Ram and stay clear of Bashdown’s impact and shockwave. Attack after he misses, keeping out of melee range. Charge Power Slash beside cover. Follow with Flying Slash when your partner can help, saving stamina for the way out.

Mid game · Walkers

Keep space between allies when Billy can use Chain Gang. If he chains you, move behind cover to break his line of sight rather than pulling against the chain in the open. Watch for Bashdown while trying to get away.

Late game · Patron

Spread out against Chain Gang. Help anyone Billy catches from outside Bashdown’s area. Wait for upgraded Chain Gang’s Unstoppable protection to end before trying to stun Billy. Use Power Slash from a safe position before closing on Billy. Save Shadow Transformation for a fight your team can support.
