How to play it

✓

Body-block his Q

Hide behind your ghouls, minions or Maiden to eat Thundering Shuriken for you: it's his main source of poke.

✓

Bait his E

Engage right after he burns Lightning Rush (E): without it he can't escape your cage and he pops, though few Kennens will waste it.

✓

Respect his W stacks

Be wary of his stacking Electrical Surge (W): an empowered auto can hand him a guaranteed passive proc, so don't let him free-stack on you.

✕

Never let him freely auto you while stacking his W: it sets up a guaranteed passive proc.
