| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Tahm Kench | You spike hardest at level 1 with kit threat and gap-close on a squishy immobile enchanter. |
| Level 2 | Tahm Kench | At level 2 your Q-slow walk-down beats her no-self-peel poke pattern. |
| Level 3 | Tahm Kench | Level 3 still favors you because your all-in threat outweighs her early poke. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Levels 4-5 even out as her shield and poke items come online. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Level 6 is even: your R engage answers her R Encore and neither hard-wins the duel. |
| First item | Even / skill | At first item her shields and wave-clear neutralize your slow-walk pressure. |
| Two+ items | Seraphine | With 2+ items Seraphine's range, roots and Encore out-scale your engage. |
Levels 1-2 are yours: Seraphine is a squishy immobile enchanter with no self-peel, so the moment you hit 2 you Q to slow, walk in for a P proc and let your ADC pile on. She has to poke with E from range and pray, but you can close that gap far faster than she can kite a Tahm Kench who has boots and a slow. Deny her free passive stacks by not standing in minions and force her to spend flash or take a fat trade.
