How to play it

Trade on a missed Q
Only trade when she misses her Q (Noxious Blast): otherwise she outranges, outdamages and out-sustains your mana.
Set up your jungler
She's easy to gank: bring your jungler and it's a clean, easy kill.
Kite with Stormraider's Surge
Dump as many spells as you can, then kite out with Stormraider's Surge.
Never trade into her while her Q is up: she has more range, more damage and cheaper spells.
