How to play it

✓ DO

Respect his burst

Care of his early burst — his E engage starts the combo, so don't get caught while he's still strong.

Take over on items

He's tanky early and needs a couple items to answer — once you spike you start bending him over.

Shield eats poke

He's hard to poke early through his W shield — don't burn mana, just focus your slow and stack Manaflow.

✕ DON'T

⛔

Never chunk your mana poking into his W shield early — you can't break it, so save mana and stack Manaflow instead.
