| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Kalista | Senna's low level 1 base attack speed lets you win the CS and poke war. |
| Level 2 | Kalista | At level 2 your kite and Rend punish her every time she steps to soul-farm. |
| Level 3 | Kalista | Level 3 all-ins with Rend refresh beat her before she out-scales. |
| Levels 4-5 | Kalista | At levels 4-5 you deny her souls and out-tempo her Piercing Darkness poke. |
| Level 6 | Kalista | Your level 6 Fate's Call dive out-trades her in the straight 2v2. |
| First item | Kalista | Your first-item tempo still outpaces her scaling before souls stack. |
| Two+ items | Senna | At two-plus items Senna's soul scaling, range, and lifesteal out-carry you. |
You beat Senna early: her sluggish base attack speed and need to soul-farm mean you can hop-kite with Martial Poise, stack Rend, and all-in whenever she walks up to last-hit, punishing her before she out-ranges you.
