Who Wins

  • You lose most pre-6 trades due to his range advantage and your reliance on minions for mobility.
  • Post-6 you can win all-ins if you dodge his E with your ultimate, but landing on him consistently requires good positioning.

How to Trade

  • Your best trading pattern is E through minions to gap close, then Q-auto with passive shield to absorb his retaliation.
  • Look for short trades when his abilities are on cooldown, especially after he uses E.

Wave Control

  • Let him push early so you have minions to dash through, then look for freeze setups near your tower.
  • Avoid hard shoving unless you can roam, as this gives him free poke without minion mobility for you.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't dash aggressively when he has E available, as getting rooted in a bad position often leads to death.
  • Avoid using your windwall reactively against his E-W combo since the root will still connect even if you block the damage.
