Best way to avoid is shadestep, blink, or evade... if u don't than I would say don't stay in predictable spots and keep moving...when u stand still or in same area u are a sitting duck... sometimes there isn't much u can do to avoid it unless u camp n keep ur distance...but moving around a lot helps...firebolt is easy to throw n has big radius... If ur tagged my a firebolt take cover...don't try to shoot back at enemy in open w primary cause he will win... U need to one shot him if u can't get away...use shotgun, fusion or snipe him to take him out...this doesn't work all the time cause u prob only have 40 hp left...if ur tagged the best thing to do is take cover or find teammates and hope they help u out...u will need prob 12 seconds to recover...it sucks but it's part of the game... in any fun fight u wanna have the advantage...if ur hit w firebolt u don't have any advantage at all...if u can't retreat and are in a bad spot u gotta get creative n try to outsmart him...I wouldn't golden gun or pop mobile super but if u have a smash or nova u may wanna use it but I wouldn't suggest it...
