Yamato vs Vindicta

Assassin vs Marksman

You want the marksman isolated and close. Flank, use your gap-closer, and finish before they can reposition.

Your game plan as Yamato

A blade who commits fully — and refreshes everything when she does.

How to beat Vindicta

A sniper who flies above the fight and finishes whatever’s bleeding.

• 01Stay healthy; Assassinate punishes low HP.
• 02Pull her down: hard CC ends Flight.
• 03Dive her; she’s fragile on the ground.

1. 01Farm is close (-3.9 last hits per match), so trades decide this lane, not last hits.
2. 02Vindicta out-ranges most heroes. Fight around corners and troopers; step in when they reload or spend their mobility.
