Who Wins
- You win pre-6 through superior wave control and sustain, as Gwen lacks the damage to threaten you meaningfully in short trades while you can poison minions and force her to take damage.
- Post-6 you lose extended 1v1s as her R gives her the burst and range to punish your all-ins while W makes her untargetable to your abilities.
How to Trade
- Run at her with Q active and W when she tries to trade back, then immediately disengage before she can stack her Q or proc her passive healing.
- Never commit to extended trades as her Q stacks and passive healing will out-sustain your damage over time.
Wave Control
- Hard push early levels to build minion advantages and force her to last hit under tower where she's vulnerable to poke.
- Maintain wave control to prevent her from setting up favorable all-ins in the middle of the lane where her W is most effective.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't chase her into her W zone or commit to all-ins post-6 without a significant health advantage.
- Her untargetability negates your entire kit and her max HP damage will chunk you heavily in extended fights.
