How to play it

✓ DO

Dodge his Q

His Q pokes you down from a good distance — sidestep it or you fall behind before you ever get to trade.

Exhaust trade early

Force one big early trade with Exhaust for a kill or a hard chunk — that's your only real window to get ahead, so don't count on it every time.

Split him late

The later the game goes the better this gets — split a side lane to force him to you, since Kennen wants big explosive teamfights.

✕ DON'T

⛔

Never dive Kennen once he has Void Staff — the % pen means your resists barely matter and he'll start hurting you.
