Who Wins
- You lose both pre-6 and post-6 due to Ahri's superior mobility and all-in potential that you cannot match.
- Your only advantage is slightly better sustain with W, but her burst damage and gap closing with R makes extended trades heavily favor her.
How to Trade
- Focus on Q poke from maximum range while staying behind minions to avoid her E charm, then use W for sustain when she trades back.
- Never commit to extended trades as her W movement speed and mobility will let her stick to you and win.
Wave Control
- Play for safe farm and scale, using Q to clear waves from distance rather than trying to establish priority.
- Keep the wave closer to your tower to limit her R engage angles and make ganks from your jungler more effective.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste your E root on minions or use it predictively, as it's your only tool to stop her R all-in combo.
- Avoid face-checking bushes or walking up without vision, as her mobility makes her excellent at setting up picks you cannot escape from.
