Where Lou shines
- Repeated hits build freezing pressure
- His Super makes contested ground difficult to cross
Know your limits
- Missing repeated shots reduces control
- Moving the fight elsewhere can reduce his area value
One habit to practice
Place your Super around a route or objective opponents need, then keep pressure on enemies entering it.
