Full matchup plan

Early game · first 8 minutes

Move around Lightning Ball and stand away from a teammate carrying Static Charge. The charge damages and stuns nearby members of your team after a delay. Attack Seven after avoiding the ball and delayed stun. Charge Power Slash beside cover. Follow with Flying Slash when your partner can help, saving stamina for the way out.

Mid game · Walkers

Use solid cover during Storm Cloud. A stun can interrupt Seven while he is vulnerable to it; silence will not stop him channeling. 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

Keep cover within reach before contesting an objective against Storm Cloud. Interrupt Seven from safety if you can; otherwise leave his line of sight. Use Power Slash from a safe position before closing on Seven. Save Shadow Transformation for a fight your team can support.
