How to play it

Avoid walls
Keep away from walls so her E can't charge you into one and stun.
Outscale her
You can outplay and kill her from level 6, and win reliably from 11 if the lane went fine.
Dodge her passive
Don't let her passive poke land on you: let her waste it on minions.
Never fight next to a wall: her E pins you against it for a stun.
