How to play it

✓ DO

Dodge her Q

Don't stand behind minions — that's where her Q poke catches you. Hold a side angle so it can't clip you through the wave.

Always buy Mercs

Rush Mercury's Treads every game — the tenacity is mandatory to survive her CC and the jungle ganks the sheet warns about.

You win the side lane

It's a skill matchup: both AP and AD Katarina win the side lane, so farm safe, scale, and take over off your resets.

✕ DON'T

⛔

Never contest prio after level 6 when the enemy jungler is off the map — that's when Lissandra and her jungler collapse on you.
