How to beat Miss Fortune as Ziggs: the early game

You out-poke Miss Fortune levels 1-4 because Q outranges her Double Up bounce; chunk her every time she reaches for CS. Keep minions between you so the Double Up second hit can't crit you, and she bleeds out of lane priority. You out-reach her bounce, so chunk her every time she steps forward and shove the wave in between. Keep yourself off the diagonal she needs. Set the minefield on her walk-up rather than her retreat, and let the plate rather than a poke exchange be the return.
