Who Wins
- You lose early levels due to Ahri's range advantage and your energy constraints limiting extended trades.
- At level 6, you gain kill pressure with your ultimate's gap-closing potential, especially if Ahri mispositions or wastes her mobility.
How to Trade
- You should look for short Q-passive trades when Ahri uses abilities on minions, then immediately retreat to your shroud if available.
- Focus on all-in opportunities when her charm is on cooldown or when you can bait it out safely.
Wave Control
- You need to freeze the wave near your tower early to limit Ahri's poke and create gank opportunities for your jungler.
- Once you have ultimate, you can look to break freezes and create roam timings.
Mistakes to Avoid
- You cannot afford to take extended poke trades early game as you'll be forced out of lane before reaching your power spikes.
- Don't waste your shroud defensively against poke when you need it for all-in attempts.
