How to play it

Don't get dismounted
With Axiom Arcanist his R one-shots you while dismounted: never let him knock you off Skaarl after 6.
Bait his W first
Don't commit while his W is up: bait it with Q pressure or a fake all-in (E+Q, then E2 out), then all-in once it's down.
Don't stand in his E
His E is his main early damage: E through him while it spins, then E2 back when it ends instead of standing on him.
Never get dismounted after 6: his Axiom Arcanist R will one-shot you.

Kled · Top · Patch 26.17 · Ranked Solo · Updated Sep 5, 2026

Kled vs Garen in Top lane is a lane to avoid on patch 26.17. The one thing to respect: after 6 a single dismount lets his R delete you, staying mounted is everything.
