Who Wins

  • You lose pre-6 to his consistent poke and wave control, but post-6 you can start winning all-ins with R if you've stacked reasonably well.
  • His damage falls off relative to your scaling, so each level makes the matchup more favorable.

How to Trade

  • Your best trading pattern is to W him when he tries to harass, then Q him and back off - don't try to extended trade early.
  • Post-6 you can R-W-Q for strong all-in potential if he's pushed up.

Wave Control

  • Focus on last-hitting with Q under tower and use E to clear waves when necessary, even though it costs mana.
  • Accept some CS loss early to avoid taking too much poke damage while building your stack advantage.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't try to contest every CS early or you'll take too much damage and fall behind in health, not just farm.
  • Avoid chasing him when he kites you without W available, as his mobility and range advantage will make you take more damage than you deal.
