Who Wins
- You win levels 1-3 through Q silence shutting down his combo potential and W damage reduction negating his burst.
- At level 6, respect his revive passive and don't commit R unless you can secure the kill post-revive.
How to Trade
- Trade with Q into spin-to-win, using your silence to prevent his W pull or Q recast knockup.
- Disengage before he can stack Determination on you with extended trades.
Wave Control
- Control the wave near your tower to deny his Determination stacking on minions while maintaining your passive regeneration.
- Push only when you can recall safely, as he scales better with farm.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't chase through his E dash range without Q available, as his W pull can turn your engage into his favor.
- Never underestimate his damage once he reaches max Determination stacks.
