Who Wins
- Pre-6: You go even in trades, using Q through minions while staying behind Tahm Kench for protection from Nilah.
- Post-6: You win fights with R repositioning and evolved abilities, especially if you can avoid Nilah's engage.
Synergy & Trading
- Trade with Q through minions when Nilah steps up, then use E to reposition behind Tahm Kench when she looks to engage.
- Focus on procuring your passive stacks on whoever Tahm Kench can follow up on.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Farm safely and scale - you don't need to match their aggression early since you outscale heavily with items.
- Use E to dodge Mel's Q poke and maintain healthy CS numbers.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't get caught alone without Tahm Kench nearby, as Nilah will run you down with her mobility.
- Never use R aggressively into their team without a clear escape path, as Mel's E can root you mid-flight.
