Who Wins
- You lose early trades levels 1-3 due to Ahri's superior range and Q sustain allowing her to out-poke you.
- At level 6, you gain kill pressure with R flash combos, but Ahri's R gives her strong escape tools making solo kills difficult without jungle assistance.
How to Trade
- Your best trading pattern is Q into auto-attack for W proc when Ahri uses Q on minions, then immediately back off to avoid her charm follow-up.
- Extended trades favor Ahri due to her sustain, so focus on short burst trades with your passive stacks.
Wave Control
- Push waves early with Q and auto-attacks to get priority and roam to side lanes where your R teamfight impact is stronger.
- Avoid slow pushing as Ahri can freeze and zone you from CS with her superior range and poke.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never use E aggressively for trades as it's your only escape tool against Ahri's E charm.
- Getting charmed without E available often results in death, especially post-6 when she can R forward for guaranteed follow-up damage.
