Below is the exact page the OTP runs — runes, skill max order, summoner spells, item build and the four tips that decide the lane, plus a quick quiz before you lock in.

How to play it

✓ DO

Dodge her Charm

Charm is her only real kill setup early — going for a Q trade walks you into it, so poke with E from range instead.

Early is yours

Early laning is pretty easy — lean on your safe E poke to pressure her before her level 6 spike comes online.

Survive her level 6

Your main goal is to not die to her level 6 all-in — respect Spirit Rush and don't get caught low when it's up.

✕ DON'T

⛔

Never walk up for a Q trade with her Charm available — that's exactly what gets you caught and killed.
