Who Wins
- You lose pre-6 trades due to Lissandra's superior range and Q poke, but can win all-ins post-6 if you successfully land your full combo.
- Your level 3 power spike with all basic abilities doesn't meaningfully shift this matchup since Lissandra can still poke safely from range.
How to Trade
- You need to use W for mobility to dodge her Q, then look for short E-Q trades when she wastes abilities on minions.
- Extended trades favor her due to her Q spam and W shield, so commit to quick burst patterns or full all-ins only.
Wave Control
- You should focus on shoving waves quickly with Q to roam, as you cannot effectively trade in lane consistently.
- Avoid freezing since Lissandra can poke you freely and zone you from CS with her superior range.
Mistakes to Avoid
- You must avoid using E aggressively without vision of enemy jungler, as Lissandra's W-R combo makes ganks extremely deadly.
- Don't waste your W element on minions when Lissandra has kill pressure, as you need the mobility to dodge her engage.
