How to play it
DO
Cancel his E
Empower your W (or E) to cancel his E as he charges in — that E-into-ult is what kills you.
Beat him levels 1-3
You can win levels 1-3 with Conqueror — fight while your empowered W is up to cancel his charge.
Respect the tower dive
After 6, sloppy stacking lets him E-ult you under his tower — don't over-commit near it.
DON'T
Never over-commit under his tower after 6 — if your stacks aren't ready he gets a free E-into-ult onto you.
