How to play it

W his E
His E stuns when it expires: W it to negate the stun and its damage.
All-in when E is down
All-in once his E is on CD: that's your safe window to punish.
E out of his Q
When he leaps in with Q, kite back with your E.
Never trade without W and E ready: you need them for his E and his Q.
