How to play it

Don't fight dragon form
Never fight her in dragon form: watch her rage bar like Gnar's and only engage when it's low.
One-shot her early
She's squishy and you have gap-closers to keep up: burst her down before she gets a lead.
Deny her drakes
Play with your team to take drakes and starve her passive stacks, or she becomes a real problem later.
Don't let her free-farm drakes: every passive stack she gets makes her a bigger problem later on.
