Who Wins
- You lose pre-6 heavily due to lack of gap closers and Vayne's superior range and mobility, making it nearly impossible to contest farm or trades.
- Post-6 your kill pressure increases significantly with R engage potential, but you still need jungle assistance or perfect positioning to succeed.
How to Trade
- Your only viable trading pattern is full commit engages using Q-W combo when she's overextended, as short trades heavily favor her range advantage.
- Focus on using brush control and minion positioning to get closer before engaging, and always ensure your W is active before taking her damage.
Wave Control
- Play for farm denial and jungle assistance by maintaining waves near your tower, using your tankiness to absorb poke while waiting for gank opportunities.
- Avoid pushing the wave as it gives her free harass and makes you vulnerable to her superior laning phase.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't attempt trades without your W active, as her true damage and attack speed will shred you without the armor and damage reflection.
- Never chase extended trades even with your engage tools, as her Q resets and kiting potential will turn favorable engages into losing trades.
