Holliday's hero tags are: Crackshot, Explosive, Apprehender
From the official Deadlock Steam page:
Armed with an heirloom revolver and a spirit lasso, Holliday's investigations have led her to New York... and when she finds the killer she's looking for she's bringing him in dead, not alive.
In-game description:
Holliday depends on her skills as a crack shot, shooting things she's bounced into the air. With good aim, she can lay out heavy damage. Her movement skills let her isolate her enemies or beat a hasty retreat.
Underlined = Scales with Spirit.
Powder Keg (1) | |
|---|---|
 Throw an explosive barrel that arms after a delay. Once armed, the barrel can be shot, meleed, launched, or detonated by another barrel to explode, dealing Damage. | |

Make sure to jump and melee downwards to make the barrel easier to land. Getting some height with 
Bounce Pad helps getting on top of people and gives us more vision.
Bounce Pad (2) | ||
|---|---|---|
 Drop a bounce pad in the world that launches any hero. You explode on landing, dealing Damage to any nearby enemies. The explosion can only occur once per Bounce Pad. | ||

-10s | You and allies gain a +4m/s move speed bonus for 4s on landing. | +75 Stomp Damage. Improve Spirit scaling |
The first use of Bounce Pad gives 
Holliday 100% air momentum, make sure to let go of W (Forward Movement) and to strafe with A or D (Side Movement) only. That will allow for more control and more distance.
Bounce Pad does landing damage as well, combo that burst with a 
Powder Keg to increase Holliday's burst.
Crackshot (3) | |
|---|---|
 Headshots deal bonus Damage and applies a Fading Slow. This effect can only occur when off cooldown. Crackshot ignores range damage fall-off. It can be triggered on units but only uses half cooldown this way. | |
20s | |
55 Damage | +50% Fading Movement Slow |

Crackshot Upgrades | ||
|---|---|---|
1 AP | 2 AP | 5 AP |
+25% Fading Movement Slow | +55 Damage | -4s Cooldown Per Hero Headshot, -2s on NPC Headshots |
It is very similar to 
Restorative Shot and 
Mystic Shot, so prepare the shot by getting in a strong position such as the Middle Bridges.
Spirit Lasso (4) | |
|---|---|
 Throw out your lasso, dealing Damage and grabbing the first enemy hit. Grabbed enemies are Stunned and dragged along behind you. When Spirit Lasso is active, Holliday cannot melee or shoot. | |

Try to go from flanking angles such as from the side or from the flank in order to get surprise initiations.
Bounce Pad will extend the duration of 
Spirit Lasso, but make sure not to always use it, as sometimes it is better to keep your opponent still.

Holliday from jumping around on her 
Bounce Pad. 
Silence Wave is also a great alternative to stop her from casting 
Powder Keg and Bounce Pad.
Counterspell to stop her
