How to play it

Block his grenade
His grenade activates his turrets to burst you: use W to readjust and let the tenacity dodge the turret shots.
All-in near 50%
There's no killing him until he takes turret or minion aggro and drops to around 50% HP: then flash on him.
Don't CS grenade-open
Never walk up for CS under tower without W while he still has his stun grenade up.
