Playing against Yamato
Their combo: Yamato transforms with Shadow Transformation (invincible during the transformation itself, then 5s of refreshed, faster abilities and immunity to CC), reels onto you with Flying Slash, then chains Power Slash and Crimson Slash.
When to fight: Your CC does nothing during Shadow Transformation. Survive it, then burst her (730 health).
Beware: Crimson Slash heals her on hero hits, and Flying Slash tier 3 can grapple to allies to escape.
