How to play it

Dodge her Charm
Her Charm can cancel your E1 and E2 mid-combo, so don't dash in while it's up: bait it out first.
When she whiffs
If she misses Charm, trade HARD: it's on a 12-second cooldown early, so you own that window.
Space her Q
Lane away from your minions so she can't hit you and the wave with one Orb.
Never commit your E dash while her Charm is up: she'll cancel E1/E2 and flip the trade.
