How to play it

✓ DO

Dodge her scream

Use your E to avoid her E — getting knocked into a surface or eating the full-charge scream is what kills you.

When to kill her

Go in once her scream is spent — she's actually squishy without the armor from her ult and the damage resist from her E.

Pre-ult her ult

If she lands her R on you, pre-ult before she arrives and proc your shield before the stun so you keep control with most of your HP.

✕ DON'T

⛔

Never trade into her scream — the full charge can one-shot you and gives her 70% damage resist plus a heal.
