| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | Level 1 is even since both kits are still mostly incomplete |
| Level 2 | Naafiri | Naafiri's Hound-backed all-ins land hard while you have no disengage yet |
| Level 3 | Naafiri | Same all-in pattern continues punishing you through level 4 |
| Levels 4-5 | Naafiri | Her dash-reset combo still outpaces your incomplete kit at level 5 |
| Level 6 | Ahri | Spirit Rush comes online giving you the mobility to dodge her engage and punish her commitment |
| First item | Ahri | Your escape and burst combo now consistently beats her all-in attempts |
| Two+ items | Ahri | Your Charm-burst now wins the exchange once you have item power behind it |
Level 1 is close since neither kit is online yet, but from level 2 through 5 Naafiri's dash-reset all-ins backed by her Hounds consistently punish you before you have Spirit Rush to disengage or answer in kind.
