How to play it

✓

Don't settle for even trades

If he's hitting Q's constantly and has Dark Harvest, trading 1-for-1 quietly favors him: force one-sided advantages.

✓

Snowball your lead

Once you're ahead there's nothing he can do to stop you: he'll resort to farming Q at max range, so close it out.

✓

High-variance lane

This matchup is good for you but can go sideways fast: play for clean advantages, not coinflip trades.

✕

Never assume 1-for-1 trades are winning the lane: vs Karthus with Dark Harvest they can favor him.
