Early is a skill matchup: he out-sustains and out-waves you, but you outscale at one item even, two if behind.

How to play it

✓

Dodge his W pull

Don't parry his Infernal Chains: slip the pull with your Q or Move Speed and save W for real damage.

✓

Free stun window

When he throws Q to last-hit, Q-W into him and riposte the knockup for a free stun to all-in.

✓

Bait his E first

He can E through your parry, so wait for him to burn Umbral Dash, then W his next Q knockup or pull.

Never waste your W parrying to escape his pull: save it for his damage, or the whole matchup gets harder.
