Scuttle Contest
- You win early scuttle fights through superior range with Q poke and E block, but avoid extended trades where his Q knockup into W slow can stick to you.
- Post-6, you only win 1v1s if you land W stun first and have R available for execute damage or escape - his sustained DPS with Q resets will outduel you in extended fights.
Predicted Jungle Path
- He'll likely start bot side for leash then path toward top scuttle, taking his full clear efficiently with Q resets on camps.
- Expect him to look for early ganks after level 3 since his E-W-Q combo provides strong gank setup, particularly on overextended laners.
Invade or Not
- Invade his jungle at his second buff around 3:15-3:30 when he's low from clearing, using Q poke before committing to the fight.
- Avoid invading his raptors or krugs where he can use walls to avoid your W stun and kite with Q resets around the camp.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste your E defensively against his initial engage - save it for when he commits with Q knockup since blocking his follow-up autos is more valuable.
- Never chase him through jungle corridors where he can kite you with Q resets and use terrain to avoid your W stun.
