Who Wins

  • You win pre-6 through Q poke and superior range, maintaining distance while chunking her down with Q-auto trades.
  • Post-6 you can still win if you land E stun to interrupt her R, but she becomes dangerous if she gets resets or you misposition.

How to Trade

  • Your optimal trading pattern is Q-auto when she goes for CS, then immediately back off to avoid her E engage.
  • If she E's onto you, immediately E to stun her mid-combo and follow with W-Q for maximum damage while she's locked down.

Wave Control

  • Maintain a slow push or freeze near your tower to deny her all-in opportunities while poking with Q from max range.
  • Avoid hard shoving unless you have vision, as you're vulnerable to ganks and her roam potential increases.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't waste your E defensively unless she's already committed with her E, as it's your only reliable way to stop her all-in combo.
  • Never fight extended trades in minion waves where she can get multiple resets, and respect her level 6 spike by backing off when low.
