Who Wins
- You lose pre-6 due to shorter range and weaker early trading against Ezreal+Nami poke.
- Post-6 you still struggle but gain some kill pressure if Seraphine lands good R setups.
Synergy & Trading
- Focus on Q stacking while Seraphine pokes with Q - only trade when she lands E root for guaranteed damage.
- Use W defensively to clear waves and avoid extended trades until you have significant Q stacks.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Play for safe farming and scaling - push waves with W when possible to minimize poke windows.
- Look for freeze opportunities when ahead to deny Ezreal farm, but generally prioritize Q stacking over wave manipulation.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't try to match Ezreal's poke early game - you'll lose sustained trades.
- Avoid face-tanking Nami Q setups and don't waste W on single minions when you could be stacking Q on champions.
