Who Wins
- You win levels 1-3 through W passive proc trades since Zaahen lacks early damage without Determination stacks.
- At level 6, Zaahen becomes stronger with R engage potential and full combo access, but you can still contest with your R mobility and dismount survivability.
How to Trade
- Use Q to engage when Zaahen uses abilities on minions, then proc W on him before he can stack Determination effectively.
- Disengage after W procs complete since extended trades favor his stacking passive once he has multiple abilities.
Wave Control
- Push early levels to deny his Determination stacking opportunities on minions and maintain wave control.
- After level 6, keep waves closer to your side since his R engage becomes dangerous in extended lanes.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't stay for extended trades once he has 3+ Determination stacks, as his damage scaling will overwhelm you.
- Avoid fighting near his minion waves where he can easily land W pulls and stack his passive efficiently.
