Who Wins
- Pre-6 you have a clear advantage because your W mobility lets you dodge her Q, your E passive stacks punish any trade she attempts, and she has no reliable way to stop your all-in if you play aggressively at level 2 with E stacked; post-6 the matchup becomes significantly harder because her R wall removes your W escape option and her Q stun into full combo can kill you even through your burst, so you must respect her power spike and avoid fighting in enclosed spaces.
How to Trade
- Your best trading pattern is to jump in with W, auto to stack E, then back off before her Q lands — repeat this to build E stacks safely, and only commit to the full trade with R detonation when E is at maximum stacks and she has no Q available, ensuring you burst her before she can wall you in with R.
Wave Control
- You want to keep the wave in a state where you can safely farm with your range advantage and deny her the ability to set up a slow push, because a large slow-pushed wave into her gives her free E stacks and a wall setup; use your range to poke her off the wave and prevent her from freely casting E to push.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never use W aggressively when her R is available — jumping into her is exactly what she wants, as she will immediately R to wall off your escape and you will be forced to fight her full combo at close range with no exit, which is a losing scenario even if you have E stacks ready to detonate.
