How to play it
DO
Cleanse his Wither
Wither is his one real threat — save cleanse for it so he can't slow you out of a trade.
Short trades, deny farm
Freeze the wave and punish every last-hit — perma short trades win the lane and starve his stacks.
Delay his level 6
Don't let him farm for free — the longer you delay his 6, the longer you own the lane.
DON'T
Never keep fighting once his ult is up — disengage and wait it out instead of stat-checking him.
