How to play it

Respect wall-jumps
If he's out of vision don't run up to the wave blindly, or he jumps a wall and oneshots you.
Your window
After 6, ult him and he usually dies: especially if you run ignite.
Poke early
Take E level 1, poke and keep distance; his kill threat is low, so rush tabis/Seekers and take Bone Plating.
Never overextend on your roams: R and get out, or he follows and cleans you up.

Core
Standard AP drain core: Liandry's Torment + Rylai's Crystal Scepter milk his channeled W for max damage while the slow keeps targets in range, and Zhonya's lets him ult from fog and stasis mid-channel. Flex the third slot to Banshee's Veil, Mercury's Treads, or a Null-Magic Mantle rush into heavy burst.
