Who Wins

  • You lose pre-6 due to range disadvantage and lack of reliable gap closers against Ahri's mobility.
  • Post-6 you gain significant kill pressure with R, but Ahri can still outplay with proper E timing and positioning.

How to Trade

  • Look for W engages when Ahri uses abilities on minions or steps too close, following up with Q and autos to maximize passive healing.
  • Save Q for when you're already in range rather than using it to engage, as the slow helps extend trades.

Wave Control

  • Accept being pushed in early and focus on last-hitting under tower while looking for jungle assistance.
  • Post-6, try to maintain the wave in the center or slightly pushed toward Ahri to have R engage angles.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't waste W on minions for farming as it's your primary engage tool with significant cooldown.
  • Avoid using R predictably when Ahri has E available, as she can easily interrupt your ultimate and leave you overextended.
