Favour timeline — who owns each window

StageFavouredWhy
Level 1Even / skillLevel 1 is skill because the lane hinges purely on dodging his hook.
Level 2Even / skillLevel 2 stays even: land Power Chord on a whiff or eat a grab, pure skill.
Level 3Even / skillLevel 3 is skill as the hook-or-punish dynamic is unchanged.
Levels 4-5Even / skillLevels 4-5 remain even, still decided by hook management.
Level 6Even / skillLevel 6 stays skill because his R makes a hook lethal but positioning still counters it.
First itemEven / skillFirst item is even as timings don't alter the dodge-or-die pattern.
Two+ itemsEven / skill2+ items stay skill since one late grab flips fights regardless of your lead.

Early game (levels 1–5)

Levels 1-3 are entirely about hook management: you out-sustain and out-poke a landed-nothing Blitzcrank, but one Rocket Grab flips a trade or ends a life, so hug minions, never facecheck brushes and threaten Power Chord when his Q is down.
