How to play it

✓

Dodge her E

If you don't dodge her E post-6 you just die and get tower-dived: use Lightning Rush to sidestep it.

✓

Max W, not Q

Max W: you'll never land Q on her, and her Q heals all your poke anyway.

✓

Punish a missed Q

The only real punish is when she misses a Q reset, or misses E with no stacks: then trade back.

✕

Never stand near the wave when she has 5 stacks: back off and let her push into you.
