Read from Lulu's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Janna.
This is Lulu's own plan; across 8,892 pooled games the lane is leaning Janna.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Lulu | Your level-1 Q poke and Pix autos out-range Janna's single-target Zephyr. |
| Level 2 | Lulu | Your level-2 spike with Glitterlance plus empowered autos beats her raw poke. |
| Level 3 | Lulu | Level 3 you keep the trade lead with E shields and Whimsy slow uptime. |
| Levels 4-5 | Lulu | At 4 you still out-poke and can set up an all-in before her Monsoon is online. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Level 6 evens out: Monsoon cancels your all-in just as Wild Growth peels hers. |
| First item | Even / skill | First-item enchanter trades stay a skill check through her disengage. |
| Two+ items | Lulu | By 2 items your reactive ult and Polymorph out-peel Janna's disengage in real fights. |
You own levels 1-4: your Q poke and Pix-empowered autos out-damage Janna's single-target Zephyr, and your level-2 spike is stronger than hers. Push the poke advantage, shield your ADC, and set up an early all-in before her Monsoon comes online. Your poke plus the empowered autos out-damage everything she has early, so take the exchanges she offers. Pix should be sitting on your carry for the whole exchange. Hold the polymorph for her approach rather than her poke, and push the wave so her disengage has more ground to cover.
