Below is the exact page the OTP runs — runes, skill max order, summoner spells, item build and the four tips that decide the lane, plus a quick quiz before you lock in.

How to play it

✓ DO

Dodge his E

with your W or E — landing it hands his ghouls aggro onto you.

Abuse his early

Stack the wave and poke with Q to abuse his weak early — he can't win the 1v1 unless he's ahead, and after 6 it's an easy all-in with Ghost.

Fight near your tower

Position the wave close to your tower so you can turn and kill him when he steps up.

✕ DON'T

⛔

Never let his W cage trap you while your E is down — that's your one way to lose this lane.
