How to play it

Dodge his Q
Always predict and dodge his Q with your dashes: if it lands you can lose the lane.
Punish after his Q
You always hold priority and pressure: after you dodge his Q, take short trades and push him off the wave.
Don't over-hold W
Don't hold your W too long: his W silences you, and a silence into his ult is how he bursts you.
Never let his Q land: dodge it every time with your dashes or you lose the matchup.
