How to play it

Dodge his poke combo
His Q combo can reach you from off your screen: watch for it; it has a relatively high cooldown, but not high enough to ignore.
All-in on form swap
When he swaps from hammer to ranged form, all-in him: hammer form gives him free resistances, so he's far squishier once he swaps out of it.
Beware form-swap auto
His first auto after swapping forms shreds a lot of your resistances: don't give him a fight right when he swaps.
Never commit to a fight the instant he swaps to hammer form: his first auto strips your resistances.
