How to play it

Dodge her spear
Dodge her Q and she's not a threat: sidestep the spear and you can kite her out of the fight.
Punish non-smurfs
If they're not a smurf, dodge the spear and you can make them suffer.
Respect early damage
Don't underestimate her early: she's really strong in the early game even though the spear is dodgeable.
Never eat her spears: a landed Q is where all of her damage comes from.
