Who Wins
- You lose levels 1–3 because Aatrox’s stats and sustain dominate any early skirmish.
- After level 6, your E swing gives you strong repositioning and burst windows that let you punish his cooldowns, but you only win if you avoid his Q sweetspots.
How to Trade
- You should poke with Q and auto attacks while staying mobile, then use E to reposition when he tries to engage.
- Only commit to extended trades when his Q is on cooldown or when you have your ultimate available.
Wave Control
- You want to maintain distance and farm safely early, using your range advantage to last hit.
- After level 6, look for opportunities to shove and roam bot lane where your ultimate and passive can create picks.
Mistakes to Avoid
- You cannot face-check bushes or fight in close quarters without your E available for escape.
- Getting caught by his W pull without mobility will result in death due to his high damage combo potential.
