How to play it
✓
Her R oneshot
Her only way to win is to oneshot you with R + Ignite: build Tabis or Seeker's early, and don't hide behind walls since her R can clip you off one.
✓
6 = kill her
Like all assassins you counter her hard: after 6 you can usually 100-0 her with R.
✓
Bully her pre-6
Play super aggressive pre-6: contest every single minion and don't let her breathe.
✕
Hide behind walls near her: her R can hit you off a wall by accident.

Core
Standard AP drain core: Liandry's Torment + Rylai's Crystal Scepter milk his channeled W for max damage while the slow keeps targets in range, and Zhonya's lets him ult from fog and stasis mid-channel. Flex the third slot to Banshee's Veil, Mercury's Treads, or a Null-Magic Mantle rush into heavy burst.
