| Matchup | Threat | Games | WR | Gold @ 15 | Gold Diff | Tips | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
![]() Kayle | Hard | 211 | 57% | +131 | +130 | Kayle can only pressure you early game with Dblade and lethal tempo. Avoid early trades before you have stacks and items and you should be fine. Try to trade ults at six since yours has a much lower cooldown than hers. When you are going to fight her avoid taking poke damage beforehand and stay healthy. Moreover, avoid engaging when her lethal tempo stacks are up, but understand you will win an allin regardless even if they are up. | |

![]() Unknown(904) | Very Hard | 209 | 54% | -290 | -271 | 💬 No tips yet — Be the first to add a tip! | |
![]() Garen | Very Hard | 178 | 48% | -462 | -1,358 | This is a major counter at all stages of the game. Your only real window to fight is after level 7 with Lethal Tempo, if he uses his Q on you while you are near full health. A crucial tip is to use your ultimate *before* he silences you if you are in his lethal range, as you won't be able to cast it otherwise. | |
![]() Aatrox | Very Hard | 172 | 45% | -803 | -746 | Whole matchup is about dodging all of his abilities pre-6, you outscale Aatrox very quickly post 6 and post sheen | |
![]() Riven | Very Hard | 171 | 45% | -671 | -1,091 | This is no longer an easy matchup. She is very strong early and can kill you at level 1 with Ignite. Your only kill window is if she wastes both her Q and E. The lane becomes more manageable after you have Sheen and Ionian Boots, as you can take short trades and sustain. You can run her down after you complete Trinity Force. | |
![]() DrMundo | Hard | 165 | 48% | -265 | -9 | This is a very easy matchup. Take Lethal Tempo and focus on stacking as much as you can. Your first purchases should be Ionian Boots of Lucidity and Sheen to maximize your stacking potential. | |
![]() Fiora | Very Hard | 161 | 53% | -523 | -1,023 | This is an extremely difficult matchup, often worth dodging in high ELO. If you play it, your goal is to stack until you have Sheen. Sidestepping her W is a lane-winning move. You must play around her vitals; try not to stand in the direction they spawn, and if she all-ins you, position yourself against a wall to block access to a vital. | |
![]() Sion | Very Hard | 153 | 46% | -895 | -1,308 | This matchup has become harder. Take Grasp and rush Sheen. In the early levels, focus on stacking and using your Grasp procs. Let the wave push to you. You must avoid his E to prevent him from landing a fully charged Q. After level 7, do not let waves crash into your tower. | |
