How to play it

She outscales you
Kayle takes a while to scale but the gap is huge by level 16: close the game before she comes fully online.
All-in at six
Look for all-ins at level six and gain leads on her before her power spikes.
Poke with Q
Poke her down with your Q while she's still weak and immobile early.
Never let the game drift into a scaling contest: an even Kayle already wins the fight by level 11.
