Who Wins
- You win pre-6 through superior early game damage and E blocking Ahri's Q return damage.
- Post-6 you lose the 1v1 as Ahri's R gives her the mobility to kite your engage and her burst combo becomes lethal.
How to Trade
- Your optimal trading is W onto Ahri followed by Q and E to block her retaliation, then back off before she can auto-attack you down.
- Extended trades favor her due to her sustain from Q and your mana costs.
Wave Control
- Push early waves hard with Q to establish priority and roam to bot/jungle for picks.
- Avoid slow pushing as Ahri can freeze and deny you farm while staying safe with her range advantage.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste W on Ahri when her R is available as she'll simply dash away and turn the fight.
- Missing your engage tool leaves you vulnerable to her full combo with no way to gap close or block damage.
