How to play it

Respect his dive
Kled looks to dive you around level 3-4 if you take too much chip: take only short Grasp Q trades early.
One-shot him dismounted
Poke him off Skaarl with ~4 points in Q plus Sheen, then burst the dismounted Kled with Q-E-Ignite-R.
You outscale
Garen outscales Kled in the side lane: just survive the early game and the matchup flips.
Never dismount Kled before 6 without Ignite + R kill pressure: he just remounts and gets all that HP back for free.
