How to play it

✓ DO

Dodge her E

Do not let her land a great E — dodge it even if you have to flash it, it sets up everything.

Win levels 1-2

You're stronger early — hard push and fight her before your creeps get low; with ignite you should destroy her at level 2.

Ping-pong lane

You each get short alternating windows — abuse yours and don't play in her strength.

✕ DON'T

⛔

Never get frozen — don't let her under tower without a real advantage or the lane snowballs against you.
