How to play it

Respect his burst
His damage is fast and hard to predict: respect the burst and don't sit in it, especially at even items.
Get ahead first
Whoever's ahead wins the 1v1: build a lead, since at equal items he beats you straight up.
Punish a weak jungler
He can't do much as a jungler right now, so pressure the map and deny him farm.
Never fight him at equal item count: at the same items he wins the 1v1.
