Early game (levels 1–5)

Levels 1 through 5 are a tight poke-and-position duel — both of you rely on landing skillshots to open a trade, and whoever plays the wave and cooldowns better wins that exchange, so there's no inherent kit advantage in the early laning phase, it's purely mechanical execution.
