Who Wins
- You win pre-6 trades through superior range and Q poke, as Twisted Fate cannot match your 700+ range harass without walking into minions for his Q.
- Post-6 you maintain 1v1 advantage since your R burst combo can kill him faster than his gold card setup, though you must respect his gank setup potential.
How to Trade
- Your optimal trading pattern is Q poke when he goes for CS, then W-E combo when he's locked in animation or walks up aggressively.
- Always position to avoid standing behind your own minions where his Q can hit both you and the wave for maximum damage.
Wave Control
- Push early levels with Q to establish range advantage and prevent his roaming, but transition to freezing once you have item advantage to deny him farm.
- You want to maintain mid priority to match his R roams while keeping the wave in a position where you can all-in him.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never stand directly behind your minions where his Q can hit both you and the wave, as this gives him free poke and waveclear simultaneously.
- Don't waste your E defensively unless he has gold card up, as you need it for kill pressure and he cannot engage on you without his W stun.
