Who Wins
- You lose levels 1-3 due to melee form limitations against his superior early damage and range advantage.
- Level 6 doesn't shift the matchup significantly as his all-in potential with R still outweighs your basic ranged form benefits.
How to Trade
- Your trading pattern revolves around Q-auto when he approaches, then using W movement speed to disengage before he can land E.
- Only extend trades when your passive is stacked and you can kite backward while auto-attacking safely.
Wave Control
- Focus on last-hitting under tower and giving up CS to avoid his Q poke and all-in setups.
- Let waves push into you naturally, using Q to secure ranged minions when necessary while maintaining safe positioning.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't try to match his early aggression or fight in extended trades before level 11.
- Never use R defensively too early in his combo - wait until you're actually in execute range, as he can simply wait out the duration and re-engage.
