Who Wins
- Pre-6: You win through consistent Q poke and barrel zoning, controlling trade timings.
- Post-6: You lose direct all-ins but can still win through poke and kiting with barrels if you maintain distance.
How to Trade
- Use Q to poke while setting up barrel chains for zone control and waveclear.
- When she engages with Q, immediately W the slow and position behind barrels to discourage her follow-up.
Wave Control
- Maintain barrel control in lane center to prevent her from freely walking up for trades.
- Push waves with barrel combos to create roam timers and avoid getting frozen on post-6.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't let her get free Q hits without trading back, and never fight without barrels available for escape.
- Getting caught in melee range post-6 without W or barrels available is almost always death.
