Who Wins
- Pre-6 you win trades with Q empowered autos and ghoul support, especially if you land E to guarantee W trap.
- Post-6 you lose all-ins if he has R up and can gap close, but you can still win if you kite properly with W and maiden.
How to Trade
- Poke with ghouls when possible, then look for E into W combo when he goes for CS - this guarantees extended trades where your ghouls and Q deal significant damage.
- Always try to have 3-4 ghouls ready before major trades.
Wave Control
- Push waves naturally with your Q last-hits to build graves and maintain ghoul pressure while denying him easy farming.
- Keep the wave slightly pushed so you can roam or back safely without losing too much farm.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste your W when his Q is available as he can easily jump out, making your cage useless.
- Never fight him post-6 without maiden up or when you have no ghouls, as his sustained damage with R will overwhelm you.
