How to play it

✓ DO

Dodge his pull

His E pull is the trap — once he drags you in and his W slows you, you can't leave and his stacks finish you.

Hold E to disengage

When you manfight him, save your E to hop back onto him — it dodges damage and denies his heal, often tipping the fight.

Avoid his Q edge

E into him so his Q's outer edge misses — that edge heals him, hits hard, and adds a bleed stack.

✕ DON'T

⛔

Don't keep fighting once his bleed is fully stacked unless you can burst him — his execute picks you otherwise.
