How to play it

Respect his Q spam
His Q is a strong spammable poke: with passive stacks and PTA up, eating too many early is very punishing, so don't let him land the trade.
All-in once you outscale
Survive to level 5-7 even and you outscale him hard: all-in when you have space to work with and you're even HP.
Walk up on long-range Q
The long-range Q is on a big cooldown: when he uses it, walk up and take space while it's down.
Never trade into his E: wait for it to drop before you commit.
