How to play it

Respect his poke
His ranged poke gives him lane control: hand him priority most of the lane and just farm safely on your sustain.
Level 6 all-in
When he swaps to ranged form at 6 with no Stormraider's Surge, Ghost + ult him for a Flash or a kill.
Level 1 start
Start E to dash and auto if he stands in your wave; otherwise start Q and farm: Doran's shield + Second Wind lets you eat a couple autos to push.
Never commit your all-in while his Stormraider's Surge is still up: bait it first.
