How this matchup plays

Trying to blink on a support is Templar Assassin's whole game, but Grimstroke makes that a liability. Soulbind completely shuts down her single-target pickoff plan. If she gets leashed, she can't blink out, and any stuns thrown at her target also hit her. Even before that, his spells are a constant headache. The phantom from Phantom's Embrace will eat through Refraction charges while silencing her, and a long-range Stroke of Fate can strip her defenses before a fight even starts. Templar Assassin relies on getting a quick kill and repositioning, but Grimstroke denies both of those things, leaving her exposed and easy to bring down.
