How to play it

Stay off walls
Never stand near terrain: her E charges you into the wall for a stun and heavy damage.
Bait her R
If you force her to waste R without spending your own ult, you get a small window to kill her.
Poke from range
Respect her lethal early game: focus on farming and harassing with Q from a distance.
Never throw yourself into a risky all-in: killing her usually isn't worth it, so keep CS high and be useful post-lane.
