How to play it
DO
Don't chase his Leap
You can't really kill this guy — his E Leap escapes any commit, so don't burn cooldowns trying to catch him.
Respect his kit
On top of the escape he has a slow and some sustain — trading him down is hard.
AFK farm early
For this rare matchup, grab defensive early (Lucidity/Kindle) and just farm the first 10 minutes.
DON'T
Never over-commit chasing him — his slow, sustain, and Leap mean you burn cooldowns for nothing.
