Who Wins
- You dominate 1v1s levels 1-3 with superior base damage and all-in potential through E pull into W auto reset.
- At level 6, you maintain kill pressure but must be more careful of his R escape and potential jungle ganks.
How to Trade
- Your best trading pattern is E pull into W auto reset, then Q outer ring for healing while he's slowed.
- Look for extended trades when you land E, as your passive stacking will outdamage his armor scaling in prolonged fights.
Wave Control
- Maintain a slow push or freeze near your side of the lane to create long lane for all-ins and prevent his safe farming under tower.
- Avoid hard shoving unless you can recall, as this gives him free farm with Q and E.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste E on minions or miss the pull, as this gives him 20+ seconds of safe farming and poke windows.
- Avoid chasing him under tower when he has R available, as the knockup can turn ganks or allow easy escapes.
