The core mechanic of Sisyphus's gameplay is deciding when to risk separating from the boulder. Separating from the boulder greatly increases Sisyphus's mobility and damage, but leaves him vulnerable.
Once Sisyphus is separate from the boulder he can use stoicism to evade the boulder and prolong the separation by jumping over it. The boulder will then take some time to slowdown, turn around, and come back. Sisyphus can also use Nihlism to throw the boulder over walls, forcing it to roll all the way around to get back--gaining speed and dealing damage in the process.
A basic combo is to use Nihlism to throw the boulder behind the enemy, and then use Hedonism to kick the enemy in to the boulder. The enemy will take damage from the kick, and double damage from the collision with the boulder and be stunned. Sisyphus can then evade the boulder with Stoicism, catch it with Futility, or make and escape/engage with his ultimate. It's a powerful combo, but difficult to pull off.
If you are playing against Sisyphus, try to stun him right before he would catch or evade the boulder, this will make him take damge from the collision.
