How to beat Senna as Lulu: the early game

Levels 1-2 favor Senna: her Q pokes and heals from a range you simply can't match, and her passive lets her scale off souls while chipping you. Play safe behind minions, dodge her Q lines, and accept you'll lose the early poke war rather than walk up into free damage. Her poke reaches further than yours and heals her for the trouble, so stop contesting and absorb it with a shield. Shove so the minions die at her tower and the soul supply dries up. Save the polymorph for the melee walk-up she has to make to collect one.
