Who Wins
- You lose early trades levels 1-3 due to Ahri's superior range and poke with Q, making it difficult to land your Q sweetspots consistently.
- At level 6, you gain a significant advantage as your R allows you to stick to Ahri and negate her mobility advantage with multiple dashes and healing.
How to Trade
- Your optimal trading pattern involves using E to reposition for guaranteed Q1 sweetspot hits, then chaining Q2-Q3 while Ahri is slowed.
- You must commit to extended trades since short poke exchanges heavily favor Ahri's range advantage and your abilities have longer cooldowns.
Wave Control
- You should focus on slow pushing waves to build minion advantages, then look for all-ins when the wave crashes into Ahri's tower.
- Avoid hard shoving as this gives Ahri free poke opportunities and prevents you from capitalizing on your superior all-in potential.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never waste your E defensively to dodge Ahri's Q poke, as this removes your only gap-closing tool for potential trades.
- You must also avoid taking extended poke without trading back, as Ahri can easily whittle you down before your sustain becomes meaningful.
