Who Wins

  • You lose most pre-6 trades due to range disadvantage and her Q-E burst, but can punish her Q misses with E-W-Q combos.
  • Post-6 the matchup becomes more skill-dependent as your DPS and mobility increase, but her zone control still limits your positioning options.

How to Trade

  • Wait for her to use Q aggressively, then immediately E-W-Q for guaranteed damage while she's on cooldown.
  • Focus on short E-Q poke when she's CSing rather than extended trades where her sustained damage and wall control favor her.

Wave Control

  • Accept early CS deficits and focus on safe farming with E-Q, using your superior mana sustain to outlast her early aggression.
  • Look for opportunities to shove and roam with R once you have Lost Chapter, as side lane ganks are often more valuable than forcing the lane.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't try to match her early waveclear as you'll run out of mana and take too much poke damage.
  • Avoid fighting near walls or jungle entrances where her W can trap you - always maintain positioning in open areas where you can kite effectively.
