How to play it
DO
Dodge her root
Her root is the one thing that stops your leap — bait it out before you all-in.
Hunt her post-6
She full-clears on a predictable path — track her after 6 and one-shot her while she's alone.
Skip the lvl-3 invade
Don't invade at level 3 — she clears too fast and will be there to punish you.
DON'T
Never dive her into her team once she has Zhonya's — commit only when she's completely by herself.
