How to play it

✓

Dodge her E

Most Lux players drop E behind you: dodge the poke by walking toward her as she casts, not backing off into it.

✓

Your window

Engaging while you dodge a spell wins the trade: dash in the moment her poke misses and burst her down.

✓

Side lane

AP Kat wins the side lane: but only if you can dash onto her, since otherwise she just E-R's the wave on cooldown and disengages.

✕

Never back straight into her E as you retreat: that's the poke she wants to land; walk toward her to dodge it instead.
