Who Wins
- You lose levels 1-3 heavily due to melee form limitations and his superior early damage output.
- At level 6, you still lose all-ins as his R outdamages your defensive ultimate, but you gain some poke potential with ranged form.
How to Trade
- You want to use Q for movement speed to kite backwards after taking CS, never extended trades in melee range.
- Your only favorable trades are quick Q-auto-W sequences when he's low on passive stacks and you can immediately disengage.
Wave Control
- You need to freeze waves near your tower in early levels to farm safely, using Q to last hit from maximum range.
- After level 6, you can start slow pushing to build pressure, but always maintain escape routes from his R range.
Mistakes to Avoid
- You cannot fight him in extended trades at any point in laning phase, even with items advantage.
- Don't use R preemptively against his engage as he can wait it out, save it for when his R damage is already incoming.
