Who Wins
- You lose early trades levels 1-3 to her burst combo and mobility, but start winning post-6 when your R gives you reliable engage and your scaling becomes more relevant.
- Her cooldown windows become your opportunities to trade favorably with W passive.
How to Trade
- Wait for her to use Q abilities, then engage with E and let your W passive proc while she's on cooldown.
- Use Q to stick to her during trades and disengage when your W passive is down to avoid her counter-engage.
Wave Control
- Focus on farming safely and building Courage from minions rather than forcing trades early.
- Let her push into you so you can farm Courage while staying safe, then look for all-ins post-6 when you have R engage potential.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste your E dash aggressively when she has her full Q combo and E available, as she can easily disengage and win the trade.
- Avoid fighting when dismounted unless you're close to remounting, as her burst can finish you before you build enough Courage.
