Who Wins

  • You dominate pre-6 with superior base stats, Q healing, and Hemorrhage stacking potential in extended fights.
  • Post-6 Kayle becomes much more dangerous with her R invulnerability and ranged kiting, but you can still kill her if you land E or have Ghost/Flash advantage.

How to Trade

  • Your best trading pattern is landing E pull into W auto, then either committing fully with Q and more autos for 5-stack execution, or backing off if the trade isn't favorable.
  • Always try to hit Q outer ring for maximum damage and healing.

Wave Control

  • You want to maintain a slow push or freeze to create long lanes where Kayle cannot escape your all-in potential.
  • Avoid hard shoving as it gives Kayle free farm under tower and reduces your kill pressure.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't waste your E on minions or use it when Kayle has her R available, as she can easily negate your burst combo.
  • Missing E against a competent Kayle often means losing your only window to engage for the next 20+ seconds.
