Who Wins
- You win early 1v1s through superior mobility and burst combos while Zaahen needs time to stack Determination for meaningful damage.
- At level 6, the matchup becomes more dangerous as his R provides strong engage potential, but your R gives you the mobility to control fight timing.
How to Trade
- Use quick dash combos to proc your passive then disengage before Zaahen can respond with sustained damage and healing.
- Focus on short, decisive trades rather than extended fights where his Q healing and Determination stacking become problematic.
Wave Control
- Maintain wave control through superior mobility to roam and impact other lanes while Zaahen farms stacks.
- Keep waves in positions where you can dash away from his W pull range, avoiding extended fights in minion waves where he builds Determination.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't get pulled by W into extended trades where his Q healing and Determination stacking turn the fight around.
- Avoid fighting him when he has max Determination stacks and revive passive, as the stat advantage and second life make him nearly impossible to duel.
