How to beat Twitch as Seraphine: the early game

Levels 1-2 are yours: Twitch has no early range and needs to stack poison, so hold priority, land Q harass on his last-hits, and shield your support to keep him off the wave. He needs to stack poison and you never let him near enough, so hold priority and poke his last-hits. Every wave you clear keeps the echo coming round. Shield your support through the venom and keep Beat Drop for the moment he appears rather than spending it to push.
