How to play it

✓

Dodge his E

Block or preemptively dodge his E with an ability, or tank it with W: never let him EQ you.

✓

Burst and dash out

Go in for quick bursts and dash away: he has no all-in, so you only die if you're already low.

✓

Never fight his Q

When he uses Q, kite and don't trade: it hits like a truck and wins any straight fistfight.

✕

Never let it become a drawn-out fistfight: his Q and trading win any extended exchange.

Ambessa vs Shen in Top lane is a favourable lane on patch 26.17. The one thing to respect: never let him land his E taunt into Q, block or pre-dodge the dash and he can't kill you.
