How to play it

✓

Kill before 6

Try to beat her before 6: she outscales you hard but you can snowball, so aim to kill her at least once early.

✓

W her Q

every time on reaction, then combo; avoid extended trades and only play into her W if you have to.

✓

Her W = tanky

Her W makes her super tanky: respect it, and note that lethality can trade into her better than a bruiser build if you dodge it.

✕

Never let her split and take towers for free: she scales insanely well with gold.
