How to play it

Rush Mercs vs his Q
His Q is the CC you rush Mercs for: don't get clipped by it out in the open.
Poke behind minions
Poke him from behind your minions so he can't answer and you chip him down safely.
Consider Serpent's
Consider a Serpent's Fang to cut through his shielding when you commit to a fight.
Never step out from behind your minions where his Q can catch you clean.
