| Level 3 | Jhin | Through level 3 his 4th-shot burst plus poke keeps you on the back foot. |
| Levels 4-5 | Jhin | At levels 4-5 his reload-timed 4th auto and W setups still outdamage your pre-6 kit. |
| Level 6 | Veigar | At 6 your Primordial Burst plus Event Horizon punishes his immobility for a lethal all-in. |
