How to play it

✓ DO

Respect his transform

After he becomes Shadow Assassin he can assassinate you outright — respect his all-in and don't get caught without a lead or escape.

Win duels with Q evolve

Take Challenging Smite with Q evolution to win every duel, and force fights while he's weak early.

Snowball before he forms

Grab a lead and use it fast before he transforms — you lose the matchup once he gets a form, especially Rhaast, who just tanks your damage.

✕ DON'T

⛔

Never let the game drag past his transform — once he has a form, especially Rhaast, you lose the matchup.
