Who Wins
- You lose early levels 1-3 due to Ambessa's mobility and ability to trade efficiently then disengage, but you become the stronger duelist at level 6.
- Your R removes her mobility advantage and forces extended trades where your sustained damage and healing excel.
How to Trade
- Focus on landing E pulls when she commits to trades, then follow up with Q and auto attacks to stack your passive.
- Don't chase her dashes early game; instead, use W to sustain through her poke and wait for opportunities when she's forced to stay in range.
Wave Control
- Allow her to push early and focus on farming safely, using Q to last hit and clear waves when she roams.
- Once you have items and levels, you can start controlling the wave and looking for all-ins when your R is available.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste your E on her initial Q dash as she likely has Q2 available to escape; wait for her to commit deeper or use it reactively.
- Avoid fighting in large minion waves early game where she can use them for additional Q resets and extended mobility.
