Who Wins
- You win levels 1-3 due to your Q poke and W shield advantage over Katarina's weak early game.
- At level 6, you still have the edge if you can land your ultimate combo before she gets her resets.
How to Trade
- You should trade with Q poke when she goes for CS, then immediately back off to avoid her dagger bounces.
- Use W for the shield when she tries to trade back, and only commit to extended trades when your cooldowns are up.
Wave Control
- You want to maintain a slow push or freeze near your side to deny her roaming opportunities.
- Avoid hard shoving unless you can recall safely, as this gives her free roam timers.
Mistakes to Avoid
- You must not waste your W element before trades and never use your ultimate without proper setup.
- Getting caught without escape tools against her all-in potential will result in death even with your early game advantage.
