| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | Level 1 is skill-even as it's pure last-hitting with no trade tools online. |
| Level 2 | Ziggs | Level 2 favors Ziggs because Bouncing Bomb out-ranges and pokes you with no answer back. |
| Level 3 | Kai'Sa | Level 3 swings to you as you close range and threaten his immobile frame on cooldowns. |
| Levels 4-5 | Ziggs | Levels 4-5 return to Ziggs because his layered Minefield and Satchel zoning wall off your approach. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Level 6 is even: his Mega Inferno Bomb pokes hard but you can reposition with your ult and trade back. |
| First item | Kai'Sa | First item is yours as %HP shred and a dash past Minefield let you all-in his squishy frame. |
| Two+ items | Kai'Sa | 2+ items favor you because your mobility flanks his zoning and your onslaught bursts him in fights. |
Level 2 favors Ziggs because Bouncing Bomb out-ranges your autos and pokes you while you have no way to trade back, so farm behind minions and don't step into his Q line. His W and E are up soon, so a poke support helps you contest the wave.
