Who Wins
- You win levels 1-3 convincingly with Q resets on minions and passive stacks, but lose at level 6.
- Gwen's ultimate combined with her W immunity zone makes extended trades heavily favor her once she has all abilities.
How to Trade
- You want short trades using Q to gap close, land E, auto-W-auto, then Q out to a minion.
- Extended trades favor Gwen due to her sustained damage and healing, so hit and run is optimal.
Wave Control
- You should look to freeze the wave near your tower early to deny Gwen farm and force her to overextend for CS.
- Avoid hard shoving unless you can recall, as Gwen scales better and wants to farm safely.
Mistakes to Avoid
- You must never fight Gwen inside her W shroud as you cannot target her with Q or E.
- Wait for her W to expire or reposition outside the zone before committing to trades or all-ins.
