Who Wins
- You lose pre-6 due to being melee against Twitch's range advantage and poison damage, but you need to survive and farm safely.
- Post-6 you start winning trades with your ranged form and R, especially after level 11 when your damage scaling becomes significant.
How to Trade
- Your best trading pattern involves using Q to slow Twitch, then following up with E auto-attacks while the slow prevents him from kiting effectively.
- Save W for sustaining after trades or escaping ganks, as extended fights generally favor you once you have levels.
Wave Control
- Focus on last-hitting under tower and giving up CS when necessary to avoid taking excessive poke damage early.
- Once you hit level 6, you can start contesting waves more actively and look for favorable trades when Twitch uses abilities on minions.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste your R defensively on small trades, as it's your main tool for turning all-ins and surviving jungle pressure.
- Avoid chasing Twitch when he uses Q stealth, as he can reposition for favorable trades or escape to safety while you're vulnerable.
