Who Wins

  • You win most trades pre-6 by using your range advantage to poke with autos and E, then W away when he tries to engage with Q.
  • Post-6 becomes dangerous as his R makes him nearly unkillable in extended fights, so you need to respect his all-in potential and play for short burst trades.

How to Trade

  • Poke with auto-E when he goes for CS, then W away immediately if he starts Q animation toward you.
  • Focus on procuring E stacks with autos from max range, then W in for the explosive finish only when he's low enough for a guaranteed kill.

Wave Control

  • Keep waves frozen or slightly pushing toward him to maintain your range advantage in the longer lane.
  • Avoid hard shoving unless you can recall safely, as being pushed up makes you vulnerable to his W-Q combo with jungle assistance.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't W aggressively for trades unless you're certain you can secure a kill, as it's your only escape tool against his engage.
  • Never try to fight him in his minion wave where he can heal off multiple targets with his omnivamp and passive.
