| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Qiyana | Qiyana's empowered Q autos out-poke your level 1 Paddle Star. |
| Level 2 | Qiyana | Her level 2 element-Q trade damage beats your poke-and-back. |
| Level 3 | Qiyana | At 3 her E dash into Q burst kills you before your bubble lands. |
| Levels 4-5 | Qiyana | Levels 4-5 the constant dash threat keeps you pinned and farming poorly. |
| Level 6 | Qiyana | Supreme Display against a wall is a near-guaranteed one-shot on you. |
| First item | Qiyana | Her assassin item spike deletes you faster than you can burst her. |
| Two+ items | Qiyana | Her flank-and-ult pattern keeps punishing you even into two items. |
Qiyana already out-trades you levels 1-2 with element-empowered Q auto pokes and the constant threat of her E dash; play back, last-hit at range, and keep the wave from pushing to you so she can't dash in.
