| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Senna | You out-range Xayah's dagger-and-feather setup at level 1. |
| Level 2 | Senna | Level 2 W-root punishes her step-ups before she has feathers online. |
| Level 3 | Senna | You still control CS and trades through the feather-less early levels. |
| Levels 4-5 | Senna | You hold the edge until her level 6 spike arrives. |
| Level 6 | Xayah | At 6 Featherstorm dodges your root and resets a big E — the lane swings to her. |
| First item | Xayah | Her one-item spike with feathers up lets her chunk and root you, keeping her ahead. |
| Two+ items | Senna | Late, your stacked range, crit and global ult win the extended teamfight back. |
Levels 1-2 you hold the edge — you out-range Xayah's dagger setup, so poke her off CS with Q and root her step-ups while she can't yet punish you.
