How to play it

✓ DO

Escape his W

Gravity Field is his only crowd control in lane — get out of it before it stuns you, or he chains his E and R.

Trade when E is down

He's much weaker while his E is on cooldown — walk up, land your poison, and take the extended trade then.

Don't feed his Q

His Q shields him and empowers his next auto, so don't trade into it at level 1 unless your poison is already ticking.

✕ DON'T

⛔

Never poke into his E range for free — it outranges you and chunks you harder as the game goes on.
