How to play it

Don't get jumped
Don't overextend level 1: she'll jump on you and chunk you for ~50% HP.
Respect her early
She's stronger early with Resolve: don't get overconfident and over-trade.
Win the late game
She's reliant on a lead: if she's even or behind, you win every fight later on.
Never overextend level 1 into her jump: that's the one thing that chunks you out of lane.
