How to play it

✓ DO

Dodge his Q

Bait and dodge his mounted Q; if it hits, walk backwards to deny the second activation.

Trade after the dodge

Once you've dodged his Q you get a free window to win trades with empowered Q's and W's.

Save your Taunt

Hold your E for disengage when he E-dashes at you, not for the all-in.

✕ DON'T

⛔

Never all-in him unless you've already dismounted him twice or he's low enough to kill before he remounts.
