How to play it

✓

Bait his barrels

His barrels are the whole lane: fake a hit on the keg so he detonates early, then step in on the whiff, and clear any barrels during your all-in.

✓

Reach him, then stun

He has no dash: use the bushes to close, land your E stun, and if you start the trade with enough HP you can kill him outright.

✓

Time his oranges

Don't dump your all-in while Remove Scurvy (W) is up: it cleanses your stun and heals him mid-fight, so bait it out first.

✕

Never commit an all-in with his barrels still live: he detonates them to slow you and reset the trade, so clear the kegs first.
