Who Wins
- You lose early trades to her mobility and burst, but can punish her if she overstays with E pull into Q combo.
- Post-6 you dominate through R isolation where her mobility is meaningless and you stat-check her with stolen defensive stats.
How to Trade
- Use E to pull her when she goes for CS or short trades, then follow with Q and auto attacks to build passive stacks for sustained damage.
- Focus on building W shield through minion damage and her poke, then force all-ins when the shield is substantial for healing.
Wave Control
- Maintain slow pushes to build large minion waves that give you W shield value and force her to choose between CSing and trading.
- Freeze when possible to deny her roam timers and force extended laning where your kit excels.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste E when she has mobility abilities available, as missing it gives her free trade windows.
- Never use R defensively when low on health, as you need to be healthy enough to actually win the Death Realm duel through stat advantage.
