Who Wins

  • Pre-6: You win trades with Q-E spam and superior range, but respect his W-E-Q poke combo.
  • Post-6: You can kill him if you land R stun, but if you miss it or he dodges with R, you're vulnerable to his all-in.

How to Trade

  • Harass with Q-E when he goes for CS, then kite backwards while spamming E if he tries to engage.
  • Use W to ground him if he uses W aggressively, then follow up with Q-E-E until he's forced to retreat.

Wave Control

  • Maintain slow push or neutral farm to avoid giving him easy roam timers, as you can't match his mobility.
  • Keep the wave in the middle third of the lane where you can trade effectively without overextending.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't waste W defensively unless he's already committed with W, as the cooldown is too long and he can re-engage.
  • Never face-check bushes or river without vision, as his W-R combo from fog of war can kill you before you can react with R.
