Who Wins
- You win pre-6 through superior sustain and all-in potential once you land W chains.
- Post-6 you dominate even harder as R gives you the stats and sustain to run him down through his Q poke.
How to Trade
- Look to land W first, then follow up with Q combos while he's slowed and pulled toward center.
- Use E to reposition for Q sweet spots and stick to him when he tries to kite backward.
Wave Control
- Push waves early to establish lane priority and deny him safe farming under tower.
- Once you have sustain from E passive, you can trade favorably while maintaining wave control.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't chase him through multiple Q hits without landing your own abilities first.
- Respect his early Q poke damage and avoid taking free harass when your abilities are on cooldown.
