How to play it

Don't dash his wall
While he's casting his ult wall it knocks you out of your dashes: only dash over it once it's fully formed.
All-in soldierless
With no soldiers or Q up he can't dash away: that's your all-in.
Bait soldiers early
Bait his soldiers at level 1 and fight around their range; they have a long recharge, so a whiffed set leaves him weak.
Never botch the E-onto-minion ult bait: if you mess it up you're dead.
