How to play it

✓ DO

Sidestep his Q ramp

When his Q starts dealing a lot of damage, E behind him so he has to turn and deals less.

Ult through his E

Your ult doesn't cancel while his E is attracting you — Kat just casts it while moving.

AP: chase his W

If you play AP, drop your daggers where he lands his W so you can follow him.

✕ DON'T

⛔

Stand in front of him and eat the full ramp of his Q.
