Who Wins
- You win pre-6 through superior range and Q bounce poke while Zoe's E creates easy sleep setups on the immobile Kalista.
- Post-6 your R combined with Zoe's E sleep creates guaranteed kill pressure that Kalista's R cannot reliably counter.
Synergy & Trading
- Use Q bounces off minions to poke Kalista when she's last-hitting, then follow up with W auto-attacks if she tries to trade back.
- Coordinate with Zoe's E by positioning to maximize R damage on slept targets.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Maintain a freeze or slow push to keep Kalista in range of Q bounces while staying safe from Leona engages.
- Use superior range to control minion positioning for optimal Q bounce angles.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't get caught by Leona's E when stepping up for Q poke - always maintain maximum range and use minions as shields.
- Never waste R on targets that aren't CC'd as Kalista can easily dodge with her passive mobility.
