| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Swain | You win level 1 as Milio has no engage to contest your Q poke. |
| Level 2 | Swain | You win level 2 by spiking first and rooting his carry before Campfire heals. |
| Level 3 | Swain | You win level 3 because Q drain out-ticks his passive sustain. |
| Levels 4-5 | Swain | You win levels 4-5 as he can't disengage your committed Nevermove. |
| Level 6 | Swain | You win level 6 as Demonic Ascension out-drains his Campfire in the 2v2. |
| First item | Swain | You win first item as DoT poke pierces his shields. |
| Two+ items | Milio | Milio wins 2+ items because his R cleanse and team shields peel and out-sustain you. |
You dominate the early 2v2: Milio has no engage and only a Warm Hugs (Q) knockback, so your Q poke and E-root walk-ups go unpunished. At level 2 hit the spike first and E onto his ADC before his Cozy Campfire (W) heal is placed. Just respect that his Q can knock your ADC out of a committed all-in, so time your root when the carry is isolated.
