Who Wins
- You lose most pre-6 trades due to shorter range and less burst, but your Q poke and spell shield help you survive the laning phase.
- Post-6, you gain significant teamfight presence with R, though you still lose isolated 2v2s against their burst potential.
Synergy & Trading
- Use Q to poke when enemies are positioned in lines, then follow with autos when spell shield blocks key abilities like Senna W or Lucian Q.
- Focus on farming safely and using spell shield reactively rather than trying to force aggressive trades.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Prioritize farming and scaling - use Q to clear waves quickly and look for recalls when you complete key items.
- Push and roam with Bard when possible, as your R provides excellent engage for skirmishes around objectives.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste spell shield on minor poke abilities - save it for crucial moments like blocking Senna W in all-ins or Lucian's full combo.
- Never try to match their early game aggression without jungle support, as you'll lose extended trades consistently.
