How to play it

Avoid her Q early
Dodge her Q and just last-hit until you've unlocked your first three abilities.
All-in after 6
After 6 the lane flips: all-in her every time she mispositions; if you're healthy you can already punish her overextensions pre-6.
Itemize for Gwen
She stays strong no matter how far behind she is: itemize against her instead of relying on a lead.
Never assume a lead makes her harmless: she stays strong however far behind, so itemize against her.
