Who Wins
- You win most 1v1s levels 1-3 through Q empowered autos and superior base stats, especially with graves stacked.
- At level 6, your R maiden gives you a significant power spike that he cannot match unless he gets a perfect engage with flash.
How to Trade
- Your optimal trading pattern involves stacking graves, then E onto him followed by W trap and Q auto resets while ghouls deal damage.
- Space your trades around your Q cooldown and only commit when you have 3+ graves available for maximum ghoul spawn potential.
Wave Control
- Maintain a slow push to stack graves while keeping the wave in the middle of the lane for E+W setups.
- Avoid hard shoving unless recalling, as you lose your grave advantage and become vulnerable to his Q poke without minion protection.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never waste your W wall defensively against his R engage unless you're certain you'll die, as it's your primary tool for setting up kills.
- Avoid fighting without graves stacked, as your damage output drops significantly and his Q poke becomes more effective in extended trades.
