Who Wins
- You win pre-6 trades through superior range and sustain, as your W outranges his passive stars and you can heal back poke damage.
- Post-6 becomes more skill-dependent as his R provides strong all-in potential, but your E can block his Q stun which is crucial for his combo execution.
How to Trade
- Your optimal trading pattern involves using W to clear waves and poke simultaneously while staying outside his passive star range, then following up with Q when he steps forward to farm or trade.
- Always keep E ready to block his Q stun, as landing Q without the stun follow-up significantly reduces his threat.
Wave Control
- Push waves aggressively with W to match his roaming potential and prevent him from freely collecting E stacks on minions.
- Prioritize keeping the wave in the center or slightly pushed, as this forces him to choose between farming stacks and following your roams.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste your E shield on his passive star poke, as you need it available to block his Q stun during all-ins or ganks.
- Avoid standing in minion waves where his E can execute multiple minions while hitting you, as this gives him free stacks and wave control.
