How to play it

Dodge her Q center
The center part of her Q heals her and deals true damage to you: never stand in it.
Land your soul pull
If you pull her soul, she still takes spirit damage even if she W's after: that's your one edge.
Her W dodges you
She can W your E to go immune, and your tentacles won't hit her while she's in W and you're outside it.
Never throw your E on a guess: she'll just dash it and punish the cooldown.
