![]() Garen | Easy | 373 | 53% | +585 | +188 | Garen 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. | |
![]() Sion | Easy | 333 | 53% | +442 | +1,146 | Freeze 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. | |

![]() Jax | Hard | 297 | 43% | -53 | -380 | Skill 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 | 282 | 48% | +46 | -96 | You 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. | |
![]() Mordekaiser | Easy | 274 | 51% | +240 | +635 | Skill matchup favored Darius early. Freeze the wave on your side and look to all in.

Post Six he will win a all in if he starts with ult. Rush Mercs. | |
