| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Hwei | Your poke range punishes his short-range auto-attacker kit with no reply available |
| Level 2 | Hwei | E-Q combo keeps landing free damage since he lacks the tools to close distance safely |
| Level 3 | Hwei | Wave control and range advantage remain firmly in your favor at this stage |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Comeuppance threatens a global execute, forcing careful HP management from both sides |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Both sides must respect the kill-secure threat evenly, making this a coordination check |
| First item | Hwei | Your poke and mana scaling outpace his itemization, keeping lane pressure on your side |
| Two+ items | Hwei | Zone denial cuts off his repositioning angles, keeping teamfights tilted toward you |
You dominate the lane from level 1: he's an AD melee-range duelist with no real poke, so every step into range eats your combo before he can auto you back. He's forced to play passively for CS and can't punish your cast times, giving you total control over the wave.
