Who Wins
- You win pre-6 through superior range and headshot trades, but must respect Seraphine's poke and Ashe's W slow combos.
- Post-6 the matchup becomes more even as Ashe gains R engage potential, but your range advantage with W traps remains strong.
Synergy & Trading
- Use your range to auto-attack when enemies step up for CS, then follow with Q when they're slowed by Zilean's Q or forced into linear movement.
- Coordinate with Zilean's E to reposition for optimal trap placements and escape enemy engage attempts.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Push waves early to establish range advantage and zone enemies from CS with headshot trades and Q poke.
- Maintain slow pushes to build minion advantages for trades, but be ready to reset waves before enemy jungle ganks.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste W traps defensively in obvious spots as good players will clear them easily - save them for follow-up on Zilean's Q slows.
- Avoid overextending for poke when Ashe has R available as her arrow can set up easy ganks.
