Tips to maximize your impact

Poke and reveal with your bomb
Poke with Phosphorus Bomb (Q): the area and the champions hit are revealed for a few seconds, enough to follow an opponent into a brush.
Start your trades with Gatling Gun
Start your trades with Gatling Gun (E): it lowers the armor and magic resist of the enemies hit while it fires.
Save the Big One
Save the Big One, every third missile of Missile Barrage (R), for a champion: it deals much more damage than the other missiles.
Save Valkyrie to escape
Save Valkyrie (W) to escape rather than to engage: without it, you're vulnerable for its 20 to 12 second cooldown.
Don't engage alone with the package
Only engage with Special Delivery if your team can follow: after using it, as after Valkyrie (W), you're vulnerable.

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

Pop his kegs before he does
Destroy his kegs before he does: a Powder Keg (E) destroyed by an enemy is defused, and each keg loses health over time.
All-in, he has no dash
If you can engage, go all-in: his kit has no dash to escape.
Save a CC for after his W
If your team has several CCs, don't use them all at once: Remove Scurvy (W) cleanses all his CC, then has a 22 to 14 second cooldown.
Get out of his keg zone
In teamfights, get out of his kegs' area: each Powder Keg (E) explosion deals the damage of the attack that set it off, ignores part of your armor and slows you.
