How to play it

✓

Don't line up with spheres

Avoid lining up with her Dark Spheres: her low-cooldown E chunks you and stuns, often set up by her hard-to-dodge W slow.

✓

Don't trade Q's late

Post level 8, don't trade Q for Q: hers costs less mana and does more damage, unless you can dodge hers or need the CS.

✓

Punish her E on cooldown

When her E is down (or you'll burn summoners to dodge it), you have a window to play aggressive.

✕

Never step into her 675-range ult unless you're tanky enough to survive the burst.
