Who Wins
- Pre-6 is relatively even with slight Lux favor due to her E waveclear, but you can match her poke and have better sustained trading.
- Post-6 you gain a significant advantage as your R outranges hers and provides more consistent kill pressure in extended fights.
How to Trade
- Use Q-W combos when she steps forward, and look for E placement to zone her from CS or force unfavorable positioning.
- Your best kill windows come from landing Q when she's overextended, allowing you to follow up with W-E-R for massive damage.
Wave Control
- Match her waveclear with W-E and look to establish slow pushes that give you poke opportunities when she tries to clear.
- Maintain neutral wave states when possible since you both scale well, but punish her roam attempts by shoving and taking plates.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste Q trying to poke through minions early as it's your primary catch tool and engage setup.
- Avoid face-checking brushes or overextending without vision since her Q-E-R combo can 100-0 you if you're caught in a bad position.
