How to play it

✓

Play around his E

His E lets him swing away from your daggers: wait for him to use it before you commit Q.

✓

Ult behind him

to cancel his E so he can't escape your all-in.

✓

Shield stalls trades

He gets a shield on every trade, so short pokes before 6 usually go his way: pick your moment.

✕

Never force short trades before 6: his shield eats your damage and you just lose the exchange.
