Who Wins

  • Pre-6: You win through range advantage and waveclear, using Q poke and passive sustain to maintain health while denying Zaahen's stack building.
  • Post-6: You maintain advantage through disengage potential with R, but must respect his all-in potential if he lands W or gets high stacks.

How to Trade

  • Use Q to poke and clear waves while staying at max range, then use passive sustain to maintain health advantage.
  • When Zaahen tries to engage, use E to create distance or W to reduce his damage, avoiding extended trades where his stacks give him scaling advantage.

Wave Control

  • Push waves with Q to deny Zaahen farm and stack building, then look to roam or recall with your tempo advantage.
  • Keep the wave in positions where you can escape with E if he tries to all-in, avoiding freezes that let him stack Determination safely.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't waste E aggressively for poke, as it's your only escape tool against Zaahen's W pull and all-in potential.
  • Avoid trading when he has high Determination stacks, especially near max where his revive passive becomes active and makes diving him extremely risky.
