Below is the exact page the OTP runs — runes, skill max order, summoner spells, item build and the four tips that decide the lane, plus a quick quiz before you lock in.

How to play it

✓ DO

Off walls vs E

Her E only stuns if it pins you to a wall — stay away from walls while it's up.

Level-2 taunt

Hit level 2 first and taunt the moment you ding, or taunt in close so she can't react with W.

Trade with Emp Q

Keep replacing your blade and trade Emp Q's every time she autos your wave.

✕ DON'T

⛔

Never waste your blade to Q her passive unless you're close enough to land at least one Emp Q on her.
