How to play against Abrams

Combo: Abrams charges into you with Shoulder Charge (it only stuns if he pins you against a wall), then drains you with Siphon Life while he shotguns and heavy-melees.

Punish window: Shoulder Charge is his main way in. Once it’s spent, kite him at range where his shotgun falls off, and watch for a Seismic Impact leap.

Beware: Fight away from walls. Don’t trade at melee range while Siphon Life heals him; parry his heavy melee to stun him.
