How to play it

✓ DO

Dodge his Q

His Q (Obliterate) is his main source of damage — use Umbral Dash (E) to dodge it and keep your spacing.

Win it early

You win early and lose late — force all-ins and press your lead before he finishes his AP items.

Care his Rylai's

Care for his Rylai's spike — once it's up the slow lets him stick to you, so pressure him before he completes it.

✕ DON'T

⛔

Never let the game drag late — he outscales you heavily once he stacks his AP items.
