How to play it

Respect red form
Red form wins at the same items and he escapes with E: don't commit a fight or a chase unless you're clearly ahead.
Duel blue form
Against blue form you win at even items: take the fight and duel him.
Get ahead early
The 1v1 goes to whoever's ahead, so build a lead early: he's a weak jungler after his hard nerfs.
Never chase him: he can outrun you and drag you out of position.
