Early game (levels 1–5)

Lissandra's Ice Shard poke combined with her Glacial Path gap-close means she can root you from range and follow up before you can react, and your E Heroic Swing often isn't enough to escape once she's committed her E dash. Play cautiously here — avoid short trades, hold max range, and don't contest her poke directly. This phase leans her way, so prioritize safe farm over pressuring the lane.
