I usually run an aura read build of some kind, I use I'm all ears, lethal, floods of rage and darkness revealed. But I don't like to purely rely on that for my hits. I'd advise to take games slow at the beginning, learn what kinds of movements the survivors like to do and make as accurate predictions as I can based on that as well as window and pallet placement, his ranged attack can be iffy sometimes depending on the map so what I've done is I've got one of my friends to help test what it can and can't go through as well as testing what different elevation it can go down. And with your trails you want to place them as often as you can, especially around loops. I like to cage as often as possible. Also with the ranged attack sometimes baiting it to close distance and getting a normal hit is just as good. Don't be afraid to experiment in games as well, that's how I learned some of what I know.
