How to play it

Dodge his Q
Sidestep his Q and he can't threaten you: after level 3 you beat him.
Ult to finish
If he's low, ult him right before his knockup lands to kill him before he eats you.
Careful post-6
After 6, walk back whenever you pull his soul: he'll jump on you and ult you back to his tower.
Never pull his soul after 6 when he can jump on you and eat you to his tower.
