How to play it
DO
Dodge the middle of his W
The true damage is the centre of his W — sidestep it with your speed. Keep eating the middle and you lose the 1v1 as the game goes on.
How to trade
Prep E → stun with Q → walk out. With 3+ points in Q you dash clear of his E range, so he can't pull you back.
Ult his ult
imate — you take no damage and don't get thrown. Predict it, or drop your E where you'll land so you're still inside it when he flips you.
DON'T
Never W him while he's stunned — he'll grab you and unload his whole combo. Use W before the Q instead.
