Who Wins
- You lose pre-6 to his superior range and poke, struggling to farm safely against Q-E combos while lacking gap-closing tools.
- Post-6 you become heavily favored as R forces the extended 1v1 fights you excel at, stealing his stats and negating his range advantage.
How to Trade
- Your trading pattern focuses on landing E pulls to guarantee Q hits and passive stacks, using W preemptively to absorb his burst damage.
- Once you proc passive, chase him down with the movement speed buff while your aura deals sustained damage.
Wave Control
- Accept early CS deficits while staying healthy, using Q to last-hit from maximum range and avoiding unnecessary poke damage.
- Focus on hitting level 6 safely, then look for R opportunities when he steps up to farm or trade.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't chase extended trades pre-6 without landing E first, as he can kite you effectively with hammer form E and superior mobility.
- Avoid wasting R on targets near their tower or when low on health, as you need to win the Death Realm fight decisively.
