How to play it

✓ DO

Break his fear

His E fear is what sets up the kill — Leap straight away to break the tether (it only clears if you jump directly away), and post-6 you can R to sit through the fear untargeted.

Countergank his ult

Countergank his first Paranoia — if his ult engage fails he struggles to recover, and that's your window to take over the game.

Bait his spell shield

Never open with Q — his W spell shields it and negates most of your burst, so you 'hard lose' the trade early; bait the shield, then commit.

✕ DON'T

⛔

Never open the duel with your Q — if his W spell shields it early, you hard lose the trade and hand him the all-in.
