The best way to play? Don't think, just slap. The math simply doesn't work out in favor of thought or effort in fact, doing those is actively WORSE because that requires thought, and thought is bad in the hands of Matt. While he has quite a variety of elements available to him, none of those matter. Right, now that that's out of the way, Matt's greatest ability is his ability to deal raw, unfiltered damage. Matt is an absolute beast, and anyone who disagrees is using him wrong.
