Guide
Firstly, Enveloping Shadows is his most viable talent rn and it synergizes with this loadout, as it helps u use your abilities more often to gain their benefits.
This loadout counters vatu's problem of little hp by giving him great damage reduction or heals on his abilities.
You basically want to poke and dash first until you see an opening. Then, use shot+ shadow bombs combo (1530 combo max) to engage, using your damage reduction (Assassin's Tools V) to win the duel. You can move to another target by using ambush so u also have damage reduction (Gathering Shadow III) for the next duel. Lastly, if you need to retreat, base kit damage reduction while dashing and heals from Contemplation IV help u ran away safely.
Memento Vivere II helps add into your beefiness, i think its necessary at 2 points at least.
Lastly, i find Shadow's Perch I a great filler card since i found it very difficult to use ambush safely with default range, but it is really just personal preference.
