Who Wins
- You lose pre-6 to his superior range and sustained damage, but can threaten kills if he mispositions near your engage range.
- Post-6 you can win 1v1s with R but need to respect his R knockback and soldier damage.
How to Trade
- Look for short Q-W trades when he positions soldiers aggressively, then back off immediately.
- Your best trading windows are when his soldiers are down or poorly positioned for follow-up damage.
Wave Control
- Focus on farming safely and clearing his soldier poke with Q, accepting some CS deficit early.
- Look to set up slow pushes for roam timings rather than trying to match his wave control.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste your engage tools on trades you can't finish - his range advantage means he'll out-trade you in extended fights.
- Going for desperate all-ins without proper setup often results in getting kited and killed by his superior DPS.
