Who Wins
- You win levels 1-3 decisively with your Q poke and E gap-close against Kayle's weak early game and limited trading tools.
- At level 6, you still maintain advantage as your R provides strong all-in potential while Kayle's R is primarily defensive and her ranged form lacks the damage to match your burst.
How to Trade
- Your optimal trading pattern involves Q poke from range, then E forward to gap-close when Kayle uses abilities or steps up for CS.
- Follow with auto attacks and W for the shield, then use your passive mobility to disengage before Kayle can respond with sustained damage.
Wave Control
- Push early waves aggressively to establish level advantages and deny Kayle farm, as she cannot contest your push effectively.
- After level 6, maintain pressure but be mindful of ganks since Kayle's R can turn dives, and consider freezing near your tower to force extended trades where your kit excels.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste your E gap-closer when Kayle has her W movement speed available, as she can kite you effectively afterward.
- Avoid extended trades in large minion waves early game, as Kayle's Q can hit both you and minions for unexpected damage while you're taking minion aggro.
