How to play it
DO
Don't get charmed
If she charms you (Allure) while you're overextended you're dead — pre-emptively pop your R to maximize survival.
Control wards
Buy control wards and don't let her get ahead — pink wards are your lifeline in this matchup.
Respect her R
Her ult is an untargetable teleport + execute — she's squishy but doesn't need much health to finish you.
DON'T
Never overextend without vision — one charm from stealth while you're out of position ends you.
