How to play it

✓

Respect his Fury

At high Fury his crit chance spikes and his Q heals huge: don't go in for trades.

✓

Poke low Fury

He has to auto-attack to build Fury: poke him and abuse your range before it stacks.

✓

Bait his ult

All-ins are hard while he has R: bait out Undying Rage before you commit to the kill.

Never trade into him at high Fury: his crits spike and his Q heals him back up.
