Who Wins

  • You lose early 1v1s due to Kennen's range advantage and electrocute burst, but can win level 6+ once you have R for gap closing and Determination stacks.
  • His early poke and kiting makes it difficult to proc your passive consistently before your ultimate.

How to Trade

  • Use W to pull him in when he steps up for CS, then immediately Q for the double strike and healing to maximize your trade window.
  • Follow with E if he tries to escape, but save it for dodging his W stun combo if he has electrocute stacks ready.

Wave Control

  • Push early waves hard with E to hit level 6 first, then look for all-ins when your R is available.
  • Freeze near your tower when behind to force him to overextend for CS, making him vulnerable to W pulls into extended trades.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't chase him through minion waves early game without Determination stacks, as his mobility and range will let him kite you while taking minion damage.
  • Avoid using E aggressively without W available, as you'll have no gap closer if he uses E to escape your engage.
