How to play it

✓

Respect her E

Her E is her main threat unless her Q is down: with both up, don't approach her or any minion she can Q to unless you W her or you're at tower.

✓

Punish a resetless Q

If she Q's anything without a reset she's very vulnerable until it's back: and since her Q travels through you, cast your spells slightly behind yourself.

✓

W her destination

Against her dashes, W or Q her destination immediately instead of reacting, and W your own wave to cut her mobility.

✕

Never linger inside her R → Flash range when it's a threat: that combo reaches further than it looks and sets up her E.
