Who Wins
- You win levels 1-3 through superior base stats and Q poke, but Aatrox becomes dangerous at 6 with R sustain and mobility.
- Your early game advantage diminishes significantly once he gets his ultimate and can match your sustain while having better all-in potential.
How to Trade
- Your optimal trading pattern involves Q poke when he goes for CS, then W him when he tries to engage with his Q combo.
- Always look to stack your passive before committing to extended trades, as your damage and CC scale with stacks rather than burst combos.
Wave Control
- Push early waves to establish level advantage and deny his Q farming, but transition to freezing once he hits 6.
- You want to control the wave near your tower where you can use W defensively and force him to overextend for CS.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never use W aggressively without vision or when low on mana, as it's your only escape tool against his R engage.
- Avoid trading when you have no passive stacks, as your damage output becomes negligible compared to his Q combo potential.
