Who Wins
- You win levels 1-3 through superior mobility and damage output with Q resets on minions, but Sejuani becomes problematic at 6 when her R provides reliable lockdown that negates your mobility advantage.
- Her passive and W damage reduction make extended trades increasingly difficult as the game progresses.
How to Trade
- Look for short trades using Q through minions to land E, then auto-attack and Q back out before Sejuani can respond with her full combo.
- Avoid extended trades where her W damage reduction and passive armor scaling give her the advantage, especially if she lands E slow.
Wave Control
- Push early levels to establish minion advantage for Q resets, then look to freeze near your tower once Sejuani gets tankier around level 4-5.
- You need minion waves to maintain kill pressure through Q mobility, so avoid letting her freeze against you.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't commit to all-ins without minions for Q resets, as Sejuani's E slow and W damage reduction will leave you vulnerable in extended fights.
- Avoid trading when your passive stacks are down, since you need the attack speed to compete with her sustained damage and tankiness.
