How to play it

✓

Don't feed his W

Never waste your Q into his W pool: if he W's your Q and dives under your wave he heals massively, and his W also heals and slows, so don't stand in it.

✓

All-in when W is down

His W cooldown is high early: with Ignite up he's very all-inable every time his W is on cd; Q-auto quick trades chip him between windows.

✓

Get a lead by 7

Get a lead by level 7 or he outscales you hard: as his W CDR climbs, all-in windows dry up and longer trades favor him.

✕

Never waste your Q into his W pool: if he baits it and dives under your wave he heals to full and the trade is very winning for him.
