How to play it

✓

Stay out of her W

Her W grounds you, and a grounded Katarina can't Shunpo or reset: never fight while you're standing in it.

✓

Engage on her Q

Dodge her Q and you win the trade: bait it out, then all-in the moment she's used it.

✓

Turn before you ult

Face away from her before you ult so her R only slows you instead of stunning you out of your channel.

✕

Never cast your ult while facing her: turn your back first or her R stuns you out of it.
