Who Wins

  • You win early trades with Q poke and superior range, maintaining this advantage through level 6.
  • Post-6 you maintain 1v1 dominance through R mobility, but must respect his all-in potential if you misposition without escape tools.

How to Trade

  • Poke with Q when he goes for CS, then immediately position away from his E range to avoid retaliation.
  • If he engages with E, use your charm during his dash animation to guarantee the hit, then follow with full combo.

Wave Control

  • Maintain a slow push to keep minions between you and his E engage, then crash waves to roam or recall safely.
  • Avoid hard shoving without vision as it leaves you vulnerable to ganks with no minions to block his taunt.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't use R aggressively for damage when his E is available, as getting taunted without escape will likely result in death.
  • Never face-check bushes or fight in jungle corridors where his E becomes much easier to land.
