How to play it

Punish his Q
His Q grants him speed and a silence on his next hit: his one real counter to you. E him just as his Q lands (not after) to stun through the silence and take far less damage.
Win level 1
You win level 1 no matter what he starts, so force a trade, shove for the level 2 spike, then all-in: punches → E → Q → Ignite kills him.
Time your W
In trades, hold your W to absorb a big chunk of his damage: save it for his E spin or his ult, not his opening auto.
Never count on your E stun to stop his E: Judgment keeps spinning through the stun and still hits hard, so don't E him into a full spin.
