| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Vex | Level 1 favours Vex since Gloom poke zones her low-range early game. |
| Level 2 | Vex | Level 2 stays Vex-favoured as she can only shove while you chip her. |
| Level 3 | Vex | Level 3 favours Vex with primed passive punishing her E engage. |
| Levels 4-5 | Vex | Levels 4-5 favour Vex as you hold anti-engage Fear against her dashes. |
| Level 6 | Vex | Level 6 is Vex-favoured because R fears her out of her R all-in commit. |
| First item | Vex | First item favours Vex since Fear burst kills her before packmates land. |
| Two+ items | Vex | 2+ items is Vex-favoured as you kite and delete her on her engage. |
Levels 1-2 favour you: your point-click Gloom pokes zone Naafiri off the wave, and she can only shove and poke with Darkin Daggers (Q) until she has her dash online.
