How to play it

Respect her post-6 range
After level 6 she becomes ranged, so stop diving in and don't eat her E poke until you have Iceborn.
Bully her before 6
Until level 6 the lane is easy: she's melee, so W-trade and push your advantage while you can.
Deny Lethal Tempo
You win level 1 as long as you don't let her stack Lethal Tempo: Grasp, W her, and walk back.
Never let the game drag out: you beat Kayle until late, but after that she scales too well to handle.
