Early game (levels 1–5)

Janna edges the early game as a hard disengage counter: her Zephyr slows you out of E range and Howling Gale can be charged to knock you out of your dash. Your level-2 E-Q spike is real but she blunts the follow-up, so trade only when her Q and W are down and don't overextend into her ADC's range.
