Early game (levels 1–5)

Qiyana's kit is built around abusing the terrain-dense mid lane — every wall and brush patch is a free damage and CC amplifier, so from levels 1 through 5 she can all-in you off cooldown with an empowered Q or E-Q combo you can't out-trade with basic Fizz pokes. You have to bait those terrain procs away from walls or eat a stun-into-burst combo you simply lose. Her Elemental Wrath at 6 adds a knockup and a big nuke that can flat-out kill you if she's already ahead, so this window is hers to press.
