Author's notes

sneakily run up behind someone in ava, and jumpscare them with a heavy melee in the back! then light melee them to death! use your leaping slash to stay on top of them when they dash away, use your gloom bombs when they whiff parry in front of you to land them all for free, and use your ult to dodge abilities / escape! :03
