| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Neeko | Neeko's disguise ambushes and poke win the early exchanges before your kit is online |
| Level 2 | Neeko | She continues to control tempo and threaten ambush kills through mid-lane |
| Level 3 | Neeko | Same dynamic — her AoE poke and disguise picks still edge the trades |
| Levels 4-5 | Neeko | She keeps the lane advantage right up to your level 6 spike |
| Level 6 | Anivia | Glacial Storm flips the lane, outpacing her ultimate and denying her setup space |
| First item | Anivia | Your item power lets you punish her squishy frame decisively |
| Two+ items | Anivia | Anivia's zone control shuts down her disguise-engage kit in teamfights |
Neeko's disguise mechanic and AoE poke let her control lane tempo and threaten ambush kills through levels 1-5 while your slow-cast kit gives her free windows to punish, so you're forced to play cautious and ward heavily rather than freely trading.
