Who Wins
- You dominate pre-6 trades with Q poke and passive stacks, and continue winning post-6 unless Vayne gets multiple R stealth procs in extended fights.
- Your early game advantage is consistent from levels 1-6 with no meaningful power spikes needed.
How to Trade
- You want to land Q then walk up for auto-W-auto combos to stack passive quickly, forcing Vayne to either trade back unfavorably or give up CS.
- Use your superior health pool and sustain to take favorable trades even when eating some return damage.
Wave Control
- You should maintain a slow push or freeze to deny Vayne farm while threatening all-ins, only hard shoving when you have kill pressure or want to recall.
- Control the wave state to keep fights in the middle of the lane where Vayne can't easily escape to tower.
Mistakes to Avoid
- You must avoid missing Q when Vayne is in auto range, as this gives her a free trade window with Q-auto-E.
- Don't waste W on minions when Vayne is nearby, as you need it for trading and she can punish the cooldown.
