Scuttle Contest
- You lose early scuttle fights if he lands W stun first, but win extended trades where your Q knockup into sustained DPS with Q resets outperforms his burst.
- Post-6, you win 1v1s by baiting his E with your E dash, then using Q knockup when his block is down - your sustained damage with W attack speed beats his cooldown-dependent kit.
Predicted Jungle Path
- He'll likely path toward early ganks after his first clear, prioritizing lanes with CC setup since his W stun enables easy kills.
- Expect him to contest scuttle aggressively around 3:15 and look for counter-ganks when his abilities are on cooldown after failed ganks.
Invade or Not
- Invade his jungle when he's clearing camps without smite available, particularly at his second buff around 3:20 when he's used abilities on camps.
- Focus on stealing his camps rather than fighting unless you catch him low - your Q resets give you better objective control than his burst combo.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't engage with E dash if his E is available since he'll block your initial damage and stun you during your animation.
- Never fight him in narrow jungle paths where you can't use your mobility effectively - wait for open areas where you can kite around his W stun range.
