How to play it

✓

Dodge his poke

He outranges you hard: sidestep his Arcanopulse or he chips you down all lane.

✓

Punish his pushes

He's easy to gank if he ever pushes up: spam ping your jungler when he overextends, he's very vulnerable.

✓

Rush early boots

Buy tier-1 or tier-2 boots early to help you dodge his skillshots.

✕

Don't force trades into his superior range: dodge the poke, farm, and let your jungler punish his pushes.
