How to play it

Bait his E
He needs his E to start any trade or gank: it's outranged by all your abilities and he's vulnerable while it's on cooldown.
Free early harass
Harass him at levels 1-2: he can't retaliate much this early.
Stay out of his W
While he's charging his W, keep out of its range so the channel does nothing to you.
Let him go untouched for 12 seconds: that's the window he needs to get his magic-damage shield.
