How to play it

✓ DO

Cancel his Death Mark

His R is the kill — time your ult as he ults to cancel Death Mark, and his ult goes on cooldown.

Trade on his W CD

Trade when his Living Shadow (W) is down — it's a long cooldown that gates his all-in.

Dodge with E

Use E to dodge his WEQ combo, then trade back before his W is up again.

✕ DON'T

⛔

Don't hand him the first kill — it snowballs the lane fast.
