Early game (levels 1–5)

Lulu wins the early exchanges because Whimsy can polymorph you the instant you E in, cancelling your stun and your ADC's follow-up. Your level-2 spike exists but is only safe when her W is down, so bait it with a fake step or minion cover before committing, and don't let her Glitterlance-and-shield poke chip you for free.
