How to play it

Dodge his E
with your W or E: landing it hands his ghouls aggro onto you.
Abuse his early
Stack the wave and poke with Q to abuse his weak early: he can't win the 1v1 unless he's ahead, and after 6 it's an easy all-in with Ghost.
Fight near your tower
Position the wave close to your tower so you can turn and kill him when he steps up.
Never let his W cage trap you while your E is down: that's your one way to lose this lane.
