Who Wins
- You lose early trades levels 1-3 due to Ambessa's mobility and burst damage, but you become the stronger duelist at level 6.
- Your R provides sustained damage and tankiness that she cannot match in extended fights, especially when combined with ghouls.
How to Trade
- Your best trading pattern is to land W when she commits with E, then use Q-enhanced auto attacks while ghouls and Maiden deal sustained damage.
- Wait for her to use mobility spells before casting W to maximize the chance of trapping her.
Wave Control
- Focus on farming safely and stacking graves early, then push waves with ghouls after level 6 to create split push pressure.
- Avoid fighting in open areas where she can easily kite you with her mobility.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste W when her mobility spells are available, as she can easily dash out of the wall.
- Missing your cage against a mobile champion like Ambessa removes your primary tool for forcing favorable trades.
