How to play it

Bait her W
Her W is her only damage mitigation and she outtrades you through it: bait it out on her other cooldowns first.
Trade on W cooldown
Once her W is down, look for a higher-damage trade: that's your window to win.
Punish her Q
Her Q is most of her damage but a short cooldown: punish quickly whenever you can hit through her W.
Trade into her while her W is up: she'll outtrade you every time.
