How to play it

✓ DO

Fear his level 2

Don't push into his level 2 — it's his strongest point, and he'll run you down with Sweeping Blade and kill you easily.

Break his shield

Pop his shield, wait out cooldowns, then all-in — that's your cleanest window to kill him.

Don't R into Windwall

Never ult into his Wind Wall — he blocks Gwen R on reaction easily, so don't rely on landing it.

✕ DON'T

⛔

Never fight him at level 1 — he destroys you, so start Q and just last-hit the first minions.
