| Levels 4-5 | Sivir | Through 4-5 she shoves and pokes safely while you can only farm. |
| Level 6 | Sivir | Level 6 On The Hunt gives her side the engage/disengage; your R is just poke. |
| First item | Kog'Maw | At one bruiser item your W shred and DPS finally out-trade her utility. |
| Two+ items | Kog'Maw | With 2+ items Kog'Maw's sustained DPS hard-outscales Sivir's waveclear kit. |
Sivir controls levels 1-2: her Q+W push the wave into you and Spell Shield negates your Caustic Spittle, so play safe, last-hit under threat, and don't feed her a free E-block.
