Who Wins

  • You win pre-6 through superior all-in potential and mobility, especially at level 3 when you have full combo available.
  • Post-6 you maintain advantage as your R gives massive AD scaling and execute damage that Neeko cannot match in extended fights.

How to Trade

  • Look for short Q-AA-W trades when Neeko uses Q on minions, then E away to avoid her root follow-up.
  • Your best windows are when her E is down - commit to full combo with Q3-W-R for kills since she has no reliable escape.

Wave Control

  • Push early levels to hit your power spikes first, then look to freeze near your tower once you establish control.
  • Neeko's waveclear with Q makes it hard to maintain freezes, so focus on slow pushing into crashes for recall timings.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't get poked down by her Q in early levels before you can all-in effectively.
  • Avoid fighting in large minion waves where her Q bounces can chunk you significantly before you engage.
