How to play it

✓

Dodge his E

His E is the knock-up that sets up his combo: dodge it and he's helpless.

✓

Punish a missed E

If he misses E, go for a hard trade or a solo kill: that's your opening.

✓

Punish turret walk-ups

If he walks up to auto your turret and you have Rocketbelt, you can burst him 100-to-0.

✕

Never commit to a trade while his E is up: that's his entire combo waiting to land.
