How to play it

✓ DO

Respect her E mark

Her E (Shuriken Flip) mark is how she opens the fight — once she's thrown the dagger she can recast to dash to it, so don't be caught standing still.

Bait the recast

If you want the kill, let the first E hit you on purpose, then walk back toward your boxes — her recast dash to close the gap carries her right into them.

Poke with Deceive

Poke with Q — Deceive's backstab bonus lets you harass safely since you reset into stealth right after.

✕ DON'T

⛔

Never stay in the open after baiting her E — retreat toward your boxes so the recast dash carries her into them.
