Champion Portrait of Garen
Garen
Easy
37353%+585+188Garen will probbaly bring phase rush and ignite in this matchup. You want to avoid taking short trades where he can proc phase rush and get out quick. You want to look to all-in against him with ghost. Be careful of his ult ignite true damage he can pretty much one shot you from 60% health.
Champion Portrait of Sion
Sion
Easy
33353%+442+1,146Freeze and all in pre six. Sion has no way to escape you. Dont stand in his q. Rush boots. He outscales you so you have to get a lead in laning phase.
Champion Portrait of Sett
Sett
Easy
30043%+269+153You win level 1 all in if you flash his w. Don't stand still when you are fighting and dodge side to side preemptively so he misses his w. He can confirm his pull into his w which is unflashable. He can kill you at around 50-60% health with ignite.
Champion Portrait of Jax
Jax
Hard
29743%-53-380Skill matchup favored toward Jax. Respect his level one damage with counterstrike. Do not dry q him since he will just jump onto you. Use your pull when his counterstrike is going to go off so you both are stunned. All in when the wave is on your side. Rush Plated Steelcaps.

DrMundo
Even
28248%+46-96You only really have kill pressure on this guy pre six. Your pull doesn't work on him but it does chunk him. If you manage to freeze on him early game you can snowball pretty hard. Stand behind the wave and don't get hit by cleavers.
Champion Portrait of Mordekaiser
Mordekaiser
Easy
27451%+240+635Skill matchup favored Darius early. Freeze the wave on your side and look to all in. If he has ignite he has a fair amount of kill pressure on you if you are consistently taking q damage from him. If you are not good at spacing it then take DShield. Post Six he will win a all in if he starts with ult. Rush Mercs.
