 Garen | Easy | 167 | 61% | +43 | +954 | Easy matchup. You can q when he q's so he can never get on you. Play safe until six and then you can run him down. Be careful of his flash ult combo since the slience will prevent you from ulting. | |
 KSante | Easy | 153 | 63% | -243 | +1618 | Showmaker's worst nightmare. K'Sante has a few tools to get onto you and burst you but he mostly relies on dashing onto a minion near you and q'ing you. If you are standing near a wall, he can e to you and ult you which will 9/10 result in you flashing or dying. You start trading with boots and six, but K'Sante can stick onto you with Frozen Gauntlet very effectively if he gets onto you. | |
 Jax | Very Hard | 151 | 42% | -744 | -490 | Arguably an even harder matchup than Irelia. When he jumps on you, instant cast q and use fleet and w to get away from the stun. Post six you can chunk him after this but this is terrible to do pre six so just chill out and space his q. You win at level 11. | |
 Ornn | Easy | 148 | 47% | -402 | +1062 | Free scale lane. Don't get in his w range and don't stand near his pillar. If you stuggle in this matchup then go Fleet for the sustain. If you are around 60% health be careful of his triple brittle combo. Be careful of his all in at six since his ult comes off cooldown faster than yours. You win at first item and can start trading at six. | |
 DrMundo | Easy | 142 | 51% | -228 | +503 | Pretty easy matchup. Mundo lacks a reliable way to get on you, but if he hits a cleaver on you then you can get chunked. Play to scale and farm up you are never going to kill this guy in lane unless he ints. You hard win the matchup when you get bork. | |
 Irelia | Very Hard | 142 | 38% | -1622 | -1902 | Terrible matchup. Irelia can dash through low minions to easily dive onto you. Careful of her level one with q and full stacked passive. If she has ignite and full stacked passive and your bone plating is down then you have to flash her stun pre six. You win at level 11. | |
 Renekton | Even | 141 | 53% | -798 | +323 | Really bad matchup depending how good the renekton is. If its 3in1Warrior, then its kind of unplayable. Instant cast q when he dashes through the wave and use fleet and w to get away from his e2. If he gets the stun on you then you are getting chunked. He only needs 2-3 trades to kill you early game and he can dive you himself. Bone plating is a must. You win at first item. | |
